About

Located in Kerhonkson, New York, Rustic Ridge View Farm is a 150-acre working horse farm and wedding venue. This family-owned farm offers spectacular views of the mountains, grazing horses, and even curious guinea hens. The unique venue and farm is flexible and accessible the entire weekend, from Friday to Sunday, for your wedding events. You and your guests can enjoy the privacy and freedom while celebrating your nuptials together. Other than the ceremony and reception, couples can host their rehearsal dinner and post-wedding brunch on the farm too.

Facilities and Capacity

Rustic Ridge View Farm accommodates up to 500 people on the property. You can hold your ceremony outside among the beautiful views and then move under the covered, weather-proof pavilion for the reception. The massive pavilion boasts tall ceilings with exposed wooden planks to give it more of a rustic feel. Glowing paper lanterns hang from the ceiling softening the space. You may choose to enter the wedding ceremony in a horse-drawn carriage or tractor-drawn hay wagon. There are get-ready rooms available on-site for convenience, and the farm is wheelchair accessible. On the day of the wedding, friendly parking staff will be on-hand to help you and your guests.

Services Offered

Rustic Ridge has an event coordinator ready to work with you during the planning of your big day. The event coordinator will help with everything from the logistics of the wedding, to working with other vendors, down to the landscaping and flowers on the farm. There are handmade wooden farm tables and ceremony benches available to use. The farm encourages you to work with outside vendors for catering. There are bartenders at Rustic Ridge that can serve a variety of beverage options to you and your guests during an open or limited bar. They do provide barware, china, flatware, glassware, and linens to use. Because you have access to the farm before the big day, you can set up the space as you wish, with the help of the Rustic Ridge staff.

Location

The farm is located in the Hudson Valley, just west of scenic New Paltz and an hour and a half outside New York City. There are a number of lodging and hotels close by for you and your guests. Adventurous guests can bring a tent and camp out on the property under the stars.

Amazing Venue & Crew

We were looking for an outdoor event space that was beautiful, flexible with our vision, available for more than a few hours so we did not feel rushed on our special day and boy did Wally and RRV deliver! Wally is such a joy and easy to work with-- he was very attentive from the moment we first reached out to tour the property through the conclusion of the wedding. His staff made the day go smoothly and the property was stunning-- we did minimal decorating as the venue spoke for itself. 1000% recommend!

We would do our wedding at Rustic Ridge View Farm over and over again!

We had our wedding at Rustic Ridge View Farm on 10/7/2023. It was beautiful! Wally was great to work with and obviously so informative about logistics. He worked great with all of our vendors. We chose this venue because of the beautiful views on the hill where our ceremony was supposed to be, but unfortunately, it rained. However, as everyone always says, it still always works out! We winded up having our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception under the large pavilion. It all still felt magical! We were able to get some cute photos on top of the hill when the rain was light, and during the dinner a rainbow came out so it made up for the rain! Every photo that was taken at our wedding has unique beautiful backdrops. Wally sets you up with “farm hands” (Jack; who was awesome) who we were able to hire to be there during rehearsal dinner and also to clean up after the event. Also if you want cool horse photos, ask Wally to connect you with some of the horse owners and you can rent the horse for an hour. We had Chef Anthony Mario do our catering, he was amazing and worked well with our venue too! Danielle from Hudson Valley Trendsetters was our day of coordinator and she was well informed about the venue and worked beautifully with our vendors as well. We had 190 people and everyone fit comfortably. I would suggest this venue to anyone who wants a rustic wedding vibe.

Stunning views!!

My wife and I had an amazing wedding at RRVF! Wally is so friendly and kind. We planned the wedding we dreamed of since the venue is a blank canvas. The ability to have the farm from Friday to Sunday was extremely helpful. The backdrop of the mountains under the arbor on the hilltop was stunning! Our guests raved about how cool the venue was. It was the only venue that could hold the amount of guests we planned for, reasonable priced and provide ample time for us to not feel rushed. Wally offered so many amazing vendor suggestions and was very communicative! We definitely suggest booking RRVF for your wedding!
