The best team with the most beautiful venue!
We got married at Shepherd’s Hollow earlier this month and truly cannot recommend their team enough!
The venue is absolutely stunning, but what really makes it special is how much they care about their couples. From the very beginning, they made sure everything felt easy, fun, and stress-free.
They were so responsive throughout planning and always quick to help bring any idea to life. They also work with so many amazing vendors, which makes everything flow so smoothly. We used several of their recommended vendors for photography, florals, and entertainment, and all were fantastic. If you’re having a band, they even handle providing the stage for you (which is such a lifesaver) so you don’t have to worry about outsourcing that part.
The food was delicious, the service was wonderful, and every detail was handled beautifully. Our venue coordinator, Alex Premo, was one of our absolute favorite people we worked with during the entire wedding process. She’s so kind, calm, and organized, and truly went above and beyond to make sure our day was perfect. If you’re getting married at Shepherd’s Hollow, ask for Alex!
We couldn’t be happier that we chose Shepherd’s Hollow for our wedding day. It was everything we hoped for and more!

Best Wedding Ever!
My daughter's wedding reception was at Shepherds Hollow and we could not recommend this venue enough! We were provided personalized service from the start, with an assigned wedding coordinator, Alex, who helpfully guided our family through all the many decisions that need to be made when planning a wedding. Alex also did a great job coordinating with our many vendors on the day of the wedding, easing the pressure off of our family in coordinating a very busy wedding day! Alex is the best! The venue itself is just stunning, and our guests raved about the delicious food and drinks. (We received many comments from guests saying this was the best wedding they have ever been to!) We highly recommend Shepherds Hollow!

The most beautiful wedding!
We just had our wedding at Shepherd's Hollow and it was a dream come true! The venue was somehow even more beautiful than we imagined- watching the sun set over the trees through the glass was magical. Guests kept telling us and our parents that it was the most beautiful venue, the food was the best they've had at a wedding (still warm when served and cooked perfectly), and how nice the staff were- and we couldn't agree more! Guests also told us they never had to wait long for a drink and that all the staff seemed happy to be there that night- a true testament to the entire team! Alex was our day of coordinator and she was the BEST. Every detail was handled and she kept drinks in our hands and had food ready and waiting for us. Communication was so easy with her throughout the planning process, too. I don't have enough good things to say about everyone that helped put this night together for us!

A literal dream
We had our wedding at Shepherd’s Hollow and I truly cannot say enough amazing things about this venue. From start to finish, everything was absolutely perfect—not a single thing went wrong, and that’s saying something when it comes to weddings!
First off, the venue itself is breathtaking. We received SO many compliments from guests about how stunning the space was—the tall pines, the elegant glass house-style reception area, the beautifully manicured grounds—it felt like something out of a fairy tale.
But what really took everything to the next level was the staff. Every single person we interacted with was incredibly kind, professional, and genuinely wanted to make our day as smooth and special as possible. A huge shoutout to Jenna, our day-of coordinator, who was an absolute rockstar. She kept everything on track, communicated so clearly, and even made sure we had food and drinks in our hands throughout the day—no small task when you’re the bride and groom constantly getting pulled in a million directions!
The venue handled all of the setup, which allowed us to truly enjoy every moment without any of the stress. Everything was exactly how we envisioned it. And best of all? Nothing went wrong. Not one thing. It was the smoothest, most joyful, love-filled day, and we owe so much of that to the amazing team at Shepherd’s Hollow.
If you're considering this venue—do it. It's gorgeous, the staff is incredible, and they will go above and beyond to make your day unforgettable. We’re still floating from how perfect everything was.
We couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

Edson Wedding
I can't thank Shepherd's Hollow enough for making my wedding day the best day of my life! From booking the venue with Kelly, to planning my day with Jenna, everything ran smoothly. Thank you also to the incredible team behind the scenes. There were so many people I never met who played a HUGE role in the success of our wedding day. The culinary team delivered top-notch food, and the maintenance department ensured the grounds looked stunning. The drinks and food were absolutely delicious, and all of our guests raved about the service and experience at the venue. I couldn't have asked for a better experience!

Best venue ever
have been trying to construct the right words and I am still at a loss several days later. I just wanted to express how genuinely thankful I am for all the hard work each member of this team put into our day and the days leading up to it. It was the most magical day and so stress free thanks to each of their hands in everything. The staff were such a great support and so on top of everything. I just cannot thank them enough. Everyone helped ease so many of my nerves and just allowed me to enjoy the day and for that I am forever thankful! This venue is full of incredible people who are so incredible at what they do. I am going to miss working with them so much!!!

Perfection
At first, we loved the venue simply for the look, but we quickly learned the coordinators, food, and service are all top-notch. Our wedding was around 200 people and every single guest was taken care of throughout the night. We had so many guests rave about how quickly servers would help them. The bar never had a long line. The food was great. Our coordinator Jenna was so sweet and helpful. She helped us with each and every detail. Shepherd's charges for everything for a reason. They work their tail off to make everything perfect. We stepped inside the building just before the ceremony and were in awe at the number of people shining the glass, wiping the floors, and making sure everything was perfect. I highly recommend Shepherd's Hollow for a beautiful and absolutely perfect wedding day.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
