The best day of my life!!

I want to thank Irongate Equestrian Center for the best day of mine and my husbands lives! We could not be happier with Rachel Nyhart and her fantastic staff. Rachel went above and beyond to make sure every detail was absolutely perfect and we are so grateful. The venue was spotless, smelled amazing, and all of our guests were totally blown away! We will be forever thankful for this special day with Irongate!

Money well spent

I originally was not interested in any of the details of my wedding since my wife was so involved in the planning, but having Rachel as our coordinator made me excited about the details and made this day special for me. We went with the complete coordination package and it was worth EVERY penny. We went into this day with NO stress at all and it was beautiful. Rachel and her team went above and beyond the entire day to ensure we were having the day we dreamed of. Our guests loved the venue and have not stopped talking about how much fun they had. We opted to stay in the rental cabins on property the night before and the night of, which gave our wedding party a home-base and made the logistics of the day even easier. Thank you Irongate!!!!

Nightmare won’t comply with contract!

I booked this venue and unfortunately had to cancel. I complied with the contract terms and was due a substantial partial refund. The owner refuses my requests. I have literally begged for my money and I am ignored. Even saying it had been sent and it was not. I am distraught!
