The experience was awsome and great customer service.

Where do I begin...?!
This venue is near and dear to my heart. It is a big part of my family on my Mother's side. It is actually my Great Great Aunt's property. I grew up here watching all the changes happen. Mark has worked extremely hard to make this venue what it is today! He is very professional and makes sure that all of your needs are met. One text saying "Is it ok to move something?", he automatically responds "Done!". No questions asked, he assures your wedding day is PERFECT.

Reflection of days gone by with a bit of flair!

Steele Crest Venue is nothing short of breathtaking. From the moment we stepped onto the property, we were struck by the immaculate landscaping and the careful attention to detail. The grass is lush and vibrant, flowering trees and shrubs are placed with an artist’s touch, and every view is curated to perfection. It’s a place where tradition meets taste—with Mark, the owner, clearly inspired by a classic Southern vision, yet bold enough to add subtle, stylish nuances that give the venue its own unique charm.

What sets Steele Crest apart is not just what you see—but what you don’t. Every functional, day-to-day necessity is either cleverly hidden or seamlessly integrated into the aesthetic. Trash cans? Not in sight. They’re tucked into custom bins that match the barn. Storage containers, extra boxes, even brooms and bags? Stored in repurposed old corn cribs with closed doors, preserving the venue’s clean, vintage elegance. It’s this level of intentionality that speaks volumes about the care poured into every inch of this place.

Inside the historic farmhouse, you’re greeted by beautiful music, yet the speakers are subtly tucked away, only discovered if you’re truly looking. Every room offers a quiet surprise, a detail that makes you pause. And honestly, our daughter’s wedding could have happened with no decorations at all—spring had already dressed the grounds in its finest. The vibrant colors, the timeless backdrop, and the serenity of the space created the perfect setting.

We barely noticed the staff tending the grounds—they moved like shadows, efficient and unseen. We were able to be fully present, soaking in the joy of the day and every stunning angle of this extraordinary venue.
Steele Crest isn’t just a place—it’s an experience. A rare gem where tradition, elegance, and intentional design come together flawlessly.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
