Paynefield Farm was the PERFECT place for our wedding. We loved everything that was included for the weekend and the flexibility of being able to design our dream wedding on the farm by creating our own ceremony space down a hill beside a wheat field and decorating the barn for our reception the way we wanted it. So many beautiful and unique places to take pictures around the property as well. It was great to have the entire upstairs of the home to get ready in as well with 10 girls getting ready it really was the best space. Jessica is very friendly and easy to work with as well as quick to reply and helpful. We loved being able to bring all of our own vendors in as well.

I have been involved in a community event and a wedding that was held at Paynefield. The venue is beautiful! Jessica is very professional and friendly. She was right on time with answering any questions we had and taking care of all of our needs. We will be having another community event this year. Looking forward to being at Paynefield and working with Jessica.
