Harvest Moon Pond

Harvest Moon Pond is a stunning venue nestled outside of Madison in Poynette. The location will leave a bride and groom wanting nothing more. With wide open fields, hidden streams in the woods, and a spacious barn that allows plenty of light, you can expect the most spectacular pictures to remember your special day. As the evening comes to a close enjoy dancing under the stars or lounging with a delicious pizza from their on-site brick oven, what more could you want? We can't fail to mention the huge rental house on the property that perfectly accommodates a large group of out of town guests or the wedding party. As coordinators we could not have asked to work with a more incredible staff. It was a pure joy to work with Brian & Stephanie who catered to our every needs.

Our son and new daughter-in-law got married at Harvest Moon Pond on 7/24/2020. It was absolutely gorgeous!! I can not say even great things about the owners Kari and Jeff. Kari was wonderful to work with and continually kept everything on track while dealing with all the new updates surrounding Covid. Their staff is amazing and The Barn and outside area couldn't have been more perfect! We've had so many compliments and that is due to Harvest Moon Pond having such a beautiful place, people and compassion for making my son and daughter-in-law's wedding be a magical fairy tale!

In a venue, we wanted versatility with extremely high (almost unrealistic) expectations. We wanted it all - a private barn/country setting with history, but new/modern updates without losing the original charm; somewhere between downtown Madison and the Wisconsin Dells; different locations to choose from for the ceremony that felt unique from the reception area, yet still on-site; indoor and outdoor social settings for guests to experience (i.e. bar, patio, fireplace, pond, walking path, etc.); a space large enough to accommodate up to 200 guests, but small enough to feel cozy and inviting; parking; easy access for vendors (i.e. full kitchen and simple transitions throughout the day/night); endless photo backdrop options regardless of weather; but ultimately, a venue that was beautiful all on its own without a single piece of décor. In addition, our "checklist" of "wants or perks" (not needs/must-haves), were also checked off of our long list. We found ALL of this and more in Harvest Moon Pond. Owners, Stephanie and Brian are organized, communicative, honest, natural problem-solvers, and incredible to work with in every aspect. They pour every bit of creative energy they have into improving an already perfect wedding venue and are always proactively seeking feedback. Throughout the wedding planning process, we became so close with Stephanie and Brian that not having them at our wedding day would have felt like a close friend or family member RSVP'd with their regrets. Thankfully their schedule allowed for both of them to be present on our most special day and we wouldn't have wanted it any other way! We are beyond lucky to have found Harvest Moon Pond as a physical location, but also to have found the entire team behind making it what it is today.
