Beautiful venue!
This was the first venue we looked at after we got engaged and instantly fell in love with it! We booked it the next day and couldn't have been happier. We had an August wedding and everything on the property was beautiful. The owner was responsive to any questions, flexible to what the couple wants, and has fair pricing without adding extra fees. She even built an online community for other brides getting married at the same location so we can exchange questions and ideas - so helpful! Highly recommend this hidden gem!

Easy, friendly, honest
We had our wedding at shady Brook acres in July of 2022. We booked within 5 months of having our wedding and never once had an issue with responsiveness or being allowed to come out to view the area. They did upgrades to the venue in the 5 months since we first looked at the beautiful place and plan to continue to do upgrades which is awesome although already a perfect. Paying options available and was easy as well as not forced all at once. The place was very clean for when it was our day to set up and staff even helped watch out throughout the night to make sure everything went well/ that there was no problems. I'd highly recommend this venue!!!

The Binkley wedding
Anne is as awesome as it gets. She stayed in touch with us the entire time making sure we didn't have questions or if we did she was quick to answer them. Everything there is very beautiful and it is literally the perfect venue for any wedding.

Love at first sight
I fell in love with Shady Brook Acres the first time my husband showed it to me via video call. I was stuck in the UK (During the lock down I was not allowed to travel to the US). Anne was so helpful and just amazing. She always found time to answer any questions we had. We had two video calls because my husband and I live overseas. A week prior to our wedding we finally met to discuss the final numbers and go through the day. Anne is professional, polite, and fun person who made this wedding a real memorable experience. On our wedding day she made sure we were all doing well. She was also kind enough to help set up the venue, I am very greatful for all her help with creating an atmosphere for the best wedding I could have imagined.
Absolutely recommend Shady Brook, with all my heart. Thank you Anne!
All the best, Lisa and Anthony Lewis

Beautiful venue
Just had my wedding here and we got multiple comments on how beautiful the venue was. Anne was extremely helpful throughout planning and had tons of contacts in case your struggling to find someone (ex. Bartenders, cake, or DJ). It made the process much easier. Very happy that we chose to celebrate the big day at SBA hitching post.

Number 1 choice for a venue
We chose Shady Brook for our ceremony and reception and I don’t think we could have ever chosen a better place. Shady brook is absolutely beautiful! I highly recommend getting married here. Anne is constantly adding upgrades to the site! And everyone you work with is so nice! Anne and Lisa are who we dealt with most and they both helped to make our day perfect! There are also so many decorations included with the venue that make it so easy to decorate!
