Getting married at Mt. Defiance Cider Barn was an absolute dream. From the beautiful high ceilings, to the gorgeous wooden beams, the adorable lighting, the cozy patio and fireplace, and the convenient and private bridal and groom suites, everything was absolutely perfect. Honestly, we still get shivers every time we drive up the little hill and get the full view of the building.

Apart for the building what really makes Mt. Defiance special is the staff. Right from the get-go we were welcomed by staff who clearly take pride in what Mt. Defiance has cultivated. Nicole was absolutely lovely and patient, giving our family members multiple tours as we beamed with delight showing them the grounds. She had a wealth of knowledge, great suggestions, and was the perfect sounding board for possible vendors.

Kelsey was our point of contact and day-of-representative, we felt so secure in her leadership. She was very responsive, organized, and pro-active. Our walk-through with her alleviated any concerns we had. On the day of our wedding she was working incredibly hard to make sure everything went smoothly and all our expectations were beyond met. She was cool, calm, and collected. We still remember her upbeat and positive vibes as we arrived for the reception. We are still so grateful for everything she did.

Lastly, the coolest thing about Mt. Defiance is the custom ciders that they can create for your wedding. We're big brewery lovers so this was very exciting for us. We ordered a keg of their flagship Strawberry Cider which was delicious and we used it for our champagne toast. We also ordered a custom keg of apple pie cider that my husband was obsessed with. We could not be happier with our cider choices.

If you're contemplating Mt. Defiance Cider Barn as your venue, definitely check it out in-person. Order a cider flight and sit on rocking chairs with your loved one. It's well worth the visit and you may shivers like us :)

The perfect venue for upscale barn vibes with a string light chandelier, outdoor ceremony space, and a porch with rocking chairs for resting your feet after dancing. There’s also a bridal suite and groom’s room upstairs great for taking a moment alone. The coordinators Nicole and Kelsey are also lovely people and had no issue dealing with multiple postponements. I highly recommend this beautiful venue!

Mt. Defiance was our wedding venue in January 2021, and it could not have been more beautiful! The venue granted our every request, and were super great at communicating throughout the planning process. Our wedding needed to be moved inside due to the snow, and it was still one of the most gorgeous ceremonies. If you're worried about weather, Mt. Defiance has great space for rainy & sunny days! Their suggested vendors were amazing and had great knowledge & experience at the venue. The entire team made our event seamless and beautiful. If you're thinking about this as your wedding spot, don't hesitate!
