Our Everything

Our August 2024 wedding at Shepherd's Run was perfection! The first key feature we looked for in a venue was the ability to stay on site, and the second was beautiful and modern design/architecture; Shepherd's Run nails both. We and our guests booked most of the Inn's rooms so the weekend felt really ours and intimate. Guests loved the wine bar and we loved working with Blackstone caterers, their dinner was elevated and delicious. The Inn's breakfasts are also incredible and Aaron the Innkeeper is such a pleasure to work with. From our first tour all the way through execution, Rowan and Jackie were on top of every detail. Our event ran unbelievably smooth and we could not be more grateful for their support and organization. Thank you Shepherd's Run for bringing our wedding dream to life!! Can't wait to come back to visit on our anniversary.

A dream come true!

We knew the moment we walked through Shepherd's Run, that we wanted to have our wedding there and everything exceeded our expectations. Rowan & Jackie were incredible planners and helped us put together our dream wedding. The entire staff was unbelievable and made our day even more special. We could not have asked for a more perfect February wedding at Shepherd's Run.

Highly recommend Shepherd’s Run!

We had the most magical and beautiful wedding at Shepherd’s Run this June. We fell in love with this venue when we first saw it about two years ago and knew this was the place for our wedding. Jackie and Rowan made the wedding planning process so easy and smooth. Rowan was my go to person these last 6 or so months, always answering my (many) emails in a quick and timely manner. Rowan made the ceremony and cocktail hour run so smoothly, my husband and I are so grateful for her expertise! The Blackstone staff were amazing and everyone raved about the service and food. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better wedding venue.
