This is a great venue! I got married here almost 2 weeks ago and have nothing but good things to say about the venue and the Sycamore Farm team. The venue is beautiful! It is quite and very intimate. The venue coordinator, Jennifer, is absolutely amazing! She helped with everything – setup, keeping the wedding on time, organizing the bridal party, etc. She was wonderful to work with and made my wedding day stress-free. Overall, my experience with Sycamore Farm was great!

This venue is amazing! This venue and property is beautiful. The owners are so easy to work with and they are willing to help you at any time. I loved that I didn't have to do a ton of decorating because the venue already had so much. The day of the wedding, I had my own decorator setting up things but they also have their own event manager who helps set up all the linens/tables/chairs and greets all the vendors to make sure they have everything they need. I did not have to worry about a single thing that day and I loved it. I would recommend them to anyone!

Diann and Ted were wonderful to work with and offered helpful suggestions. We had a Sunday afternoon ceremony and reception with cake and hors d'oeuvres. Diann worked with the caterer and set up the perfect menu! Even though a hot day was expected we were very comfortable. Sycamore Farm sits atop a hill and have wonderful cooling breezes --- the farm is also equipped with plenty of fans. With the suggestions from Diann and Ted we moved the ceremony to ensure the guests would be in the shade during the ceremony as well. We could not have asked for a more perfect day!

I loved everything about this venue! Diann and Ted were extremely helpful in the months leading up to my wedding, and Holly and Jack were both there the day of the event to set up and help things run smoothly.

This venue is absolutely gorgeous and all my guests were very complimentary.

Thank you, Sycamore Farm!

Diann and Ted were wonderful hosts! We planned our wedding long distance from LA. A couple times we sprung surprise visits to Bloomington on them and asked if we could swing by last minute. They accommodated most every request. We transformed the barn into our dream wedding and it was gorgeous! Thanks Diann and Ted for all your help creating our memorable day!

Lots of thanks for the great support Sycamore Farms, and specially Diann Lock, gave us for our wedding.
The farm is incredible!!! We had so many great comments from all our family and friends that share the day with us. Everyone was amazed by the beauty, size, distribution, service, and everything in the Farm. Both barns have amazing light fixtures that just enhance our wonderful night.
We couldn't be happier with our selection of Sycamore Farms for our wedding, it made our wedding one amazing and unforgettable night for everyone.

Sycamore Farm is a beautiful farm and our guests had an enjoyable time. Some even said it was the best wedding they ever attended. The rain made the day more beautiful and moving the ceremony inside to seat 230 people worked out better than expected! Most importantly, the bride and groom had a "flawless day", as my daughter the bride put it. Holley was so helpful with the rain situation and giving great advice and assistance! Jack was so kind and was a great help as well. I certainly recommend Sycamore Farm for a venue! Ted and Diann are wonderful and so helpful!

Diann and Ted were quick to respond and open to accommodating what my fiance and I envisioned for our day. The environment was perfect for a combination of easy going and classy. Diann and Ted worked hard to make sure our guests were comfortable and had what they needed, which allowed for my husband and I to relax and enjoy being around our favorite people in the world.
