Couldn’t have asked for a better venue and team. Our wedding was absolutely breathtaking🫶🏻

I don’t have enough words to describe how perfect our wedding day was; it felt like an absolute dream come true! From the moment we started planning to the final dance of the evening, every single detail came together flawlessly, exceeding all our expectations.
The venue was breathtaking; it created the most magical backdrop for our big day. The staff went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly, allowing us to fully soak in every moment without a single worry. If you’re in the process of planning your wedding, know that finding the right team to bring your vision to life makes all the difference — and we were so fortunate to have found just that. We’ll be forever grateful for the memories we made. 💕

Stunning, Fabulous, Beautiful

We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day for our wedding, and we have the amazing people at Ostertag to thank for that. Donna Easterday worked meticulously with my wife, going over logistics and payment planning. Whether it was email, text or phone call, she made sure she was available. Our Day-Of Coordinator, Kim Schwartz, was a ROCKSTAR! The venue was beautiful on its own but her little touches made all the difference. From setup to break down, everything was handled flawlessly. Thank you again for making our wedding day unforgettable!

Perfect Venue!

We just had our wedding at Ostertag Vistas, and it was absolutely incredible. The location is absolutely stunning, exactly what we wanted. We hired Donna Easterday, whose family owns the venue, to be our day of coordinator. She was ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE. I’m so impressed by her professionalism and organizational skills… add this to the fact she has such a kind and helpful heart she made for the perfect person to support us during our day. Without her, our day wouldn’t have been the same. She made sure everything ran smoothly and it was the magical day we had dreamed of. She made sure all of the decorations were completed. She also made sure that during the wedding our guest book was signed, pictures were taken, favors were passed and so much more. There was so much more that Donna did to make our day flow smoothly and perfectly. We have absolutely no regrets in picking this location - it was everything we could have hoped for. It was affordable, beautiful, and we felt completely supported and cared for. Thank you, Donna, and family, for sharing your beautiful place with us and for an incredibly magical day - we are so incredibly thankful for ALL you did - we couldn’t have pulled off such a magical day without your help!

Wonderful experience


We held our daughter’s wedding reception here in early December. The setting is lovely and very scenic. The barn interior is a warm and unique gathering place and our guests really enjoyed themselves there. Donna was a pleasure to work with throughout the entire planning process - efficient, patient, and very professional.

Amazing venue for a wedding

Ostertag Vistas is absolutely incredible!! Donna was so welcoming and extremely helpful in helping us prepare for our special day. She showed us around their beautiful venue, made suggestions from their many years of having weddings at their location, and always responded quickly to any questions we had. Kim, our on site wedding coordinator, was an absolute delight to work with. She is awesome. She was everywhere and stepped in and helped out where she didn't need to. She definitely made things run so smoothly. Finally, we want to thank Mrs. Easterdays. I would have never thought an owner would actually come out and just make sure your day was so special. I learned after the reception that she doesn't miss a wedding at her venue. She was quietly everywhere. As we were looking at our photos, we noticed that Mrs. Easterdays peeping in during the ceremony. We were honored and thought it was so sweet she was there. We only wished we knew prior to our ceremony how much it means to her that her clients have an amazing time. If we had, we would have had her sit in on wedding ceremony.

Thank you so much Ostertag Vistas for allowing us to use your beautiful and historic property!!! It was an honor to get ready in your cottage and think of all the generations that had lived there.

I just wish we could give a higher rating!!! Do not go anywhere else other than Ostertag Vistas, especially for a wedding. THEY ARE TRULY INCREDIBLE!!

Beautiful Venue

We had our wedding in October of this year. The venue is absolutely beautiful and there are so many options where you can hold the ceremony. We had about 70 guests. We had the ceremony on the patio and the reception in the barn. Donna and was the best to work with. She is knowledgeable, professional and efficient. I was so happy to have her throughout this process, she makes sure everything runs as smooth as possible. So happy to have created a memorable day at Ostertag Vistas.

Highly recommend!

Ostertag Vistas is a great place to have your wedding! The venue is breathtaking with multiple options for wedding sites and an inclement weather plan. It was so convenient to be able to have our ceremony outside on the beautiful patio and then stroll a few feet into the historic barn for our reception. Donna is patient and helpful with the planning process and was an awesome day of coordinator. My husband and I were beyond happy with our wedding day and would definitely use this venue again for future events! :)

Wedding of our dreams (and more)!!

I (the bride) grew up going to this venue. It is a special and beautiful place. The grounds are absolutely beautiful with panoramic views of the farm. There are historic houses include a log cabin and stone house as well as a smoke house that you can see from the barn and use for photos or a ceremony location. The barn sides can be opened to see the grounds if you have good weather and makes for the perfect back drop for the most important night of your life with your spouse! One of the best things about this venue (besides its beauty and special place to me personally) is the ability for guests to spread out. There is space to socialize outside so you and your guests can visit with each other during the reception. Even better, you and your spouse have multiple opportunities for special moments for just the two of you. We went to the other side of the barn during cocktail hour for a quick few moments together and enjoyed eating our cake and taking breaks on the stairs off the back of the great room. These little moments are so important--our photographer even caught some of our moments while taking other pictures! It was truly a beautiful and perfect night. Donna and Wanda were accommodating and committed that our wedding was everything we had hoped for! Our wedding was everything we had hoped for and surpassed what we had expected to come together! You won't go wrong with this beautiful location, great owner, manager, and staff!

Great Accommodating Service

This venue was perfect for our wedding, it was beautiful and scenic. Donna was our Day of Coordinator and went up and beyond with her services. Since covid rules were lifted just a few weeks before our wedding, she was so accommodating with changing our plans. She helped our wedding day run very smoothly and also did an excellent job setting up the decorations we provided her. Also, since it was super hot, in the 90's the day of our wedding, she was sweet enough to let our dog, who was a part of our ceremony, be in the air conditioning in a room off to the side. I can't say enough how accommodating she was! I highly recommend Ostertag Vistas!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Ostertag Vistas is an amazingly beautiful venue with truly unique history. The options for photography are virtually endless. I had the pleasure of working with both Terri and Colleen and they were both very helpful in all aspects of the day. Once the ceremony was over they made sure they were available but not watching over our clients ever move. I was highly impressed by the cleanliness, organization, and detail that Ostertag Vistas put into our clients wedding. It made our job so much easier. Thank you so much!
