We could not be more thrilled with our experience at Homestead Events at the Loray Mill — it was truly the perfect venue for our wedding. From the stunning natural beauty of the space to the warm, welcoming atmosphere, every inch of this venue felt magical. But what truly set it apart was the incredible staff, especially Stacy, who is nothing short of a miracle worker!

From the moment we started working with her, Stacy was right there with us — answering every question, calming every concern, and thinking ten steps ahead at all times. She left nothing unturned. Her attention to detail, professionalism, and genuine care made the planning process feel so much smoother than we ever imagined. By the time our wedding day rolled around, we didn’t feel stressed or unsure — we felt ready, because we knew Stacy had everything handled. There wasn’t a single moment of second-guessing or worry over the little things. She had already taken care of them.

What makes it even more special is that we didn’t just find a venue coordinator — we truly felt like we found a friend in Stacy. Her kindness, patience, and passion for what she does shine through in every interaction.

If you're looking for a breathtaking venue with an exceptional team who truly cares about your big day, look no further than Homestead Events at the Loray Mill. I would recommend them a thousand times over. Thank you, Stacy and the entire team, for giving us the day of our dreams!

Our experience with Homesteads was absolutely top notch. My husband and I have been involved in over 200 weddings between planning, coordinating, catering, attending, being in the bridal party, and now as bride and groom--so we have truly seen the full spectrum of wedding vendors and venues. From our very first meeting to our wedding day and even beyond, the staff at Homesteads has exceeded our expectations.

Venue director Hannah is professional yet relatable and gave us helpful tips and recommendations along the way, responded to all our questions in a timely manner, and overall made our entire day flow smoothly. Catering director Kim is a sweetheart and worked with us to create several versions of our menu and was patient as my (former chef) husband made tweaks over the course of several months. The day-of staff and bartenders were outstanding--serving our guests with excellence, making them feel welcome, and contributing to the overall atmosphere we had envisioned. They brought us food and drinks all night and we didn't have to think about anything except enjoying the party we had spent so many months planning!

So many of our guests commented on how beautiful and unique the venue was. There are so many different event spaces at Loray Mill and we ended up hosting our rehearsal dinner / welcome party there as well--truly a full-service venue. With so much to plan for our wedding, it was a huge relief that they also provided tables & chairs, linens, catering, alcohol, bar service, security, etc. and we didn't have to "Frankenstein" all of those details. Many of our vendors were already familiar with the venue which was a huge plus as well. We love Hannah and Homesteads and would recommend this venue and this team to absolutely anyone!

This was the perfect place for my The Jett’s Ceremony. Hannah walked me through the process and the day of the wedding she showed up from the start of the day until the end! The space is so beautiful and great for intimate space and comfortable for the Guest!

Loray Mill and Homestead events are amazing. We couldn't be happier working with Hannah and her team and venue came together perfectly. We highly recommend this venue for those wanting a picturesque wedding. Also, go with the uplighting, it truly transforms this space.

First off - Loray Mill is such a beautiful place if you are into the industrial look for your wedding this is the place! And the Homestead team was amazing! My husband and I worked directly with Hannah...

Hannah was so so helpful, supportive and punctual in every way! When we asked she even helped us with details that weren't related to the venue itself but other wedding details.
For me and my husband we live out of state so she was also able to accommodate us by doing video chats, which was super helpful to keep strong communication and ensure we were on the same page with decorations and more. In short - Hannah's great, helpful and available we enjoyed working with her!

Kim & The Catering Team did an excellent job with our food and even allowed us to make a special sauce for our salmon.
We even used them for our rehearsal dinner and it was amazing as well!

Day of Wedding - Everything went exceptionally smooth everything was in place as previously discussed and I was a happy bride!

I love this venue it was beautiful and the staff was so sweet and amazing. We had our wedding at the end of March, during our engagement there was a switch in staff which changed our day of wedding coordinators. But let me tell you that was the best thing that could have happened our day of wedding coordinator from the venue Hannah she was so sweet and helpful through the planning process as well as on the wedding day. Her team truly made our wedding the best day ever for us. Make sure you try the catering, Kim is the sweetest person and the venue food was 10/10 we would recommend. Make sure your try the sweet and sour meatballs and chicken dip.

This old building has great historic charm but feels modern chic. We loved the way our event looked with our Enchanted Forest theme. Hannah was very helpful during the planning process and on the day of the actual event! Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful experience. Hannah and her team helped make the place and space work for our event and everyone had a memory making wonderful time.
