Loved this venue

I was having trouble finding a venue that looked beautiful and fit my budget! Then I came across this one! All the staff were so nice and also very crafty! I love the rustic and romantic vibes! It has a beautiful gazebo where you can say I do and you definitely should say I do at this wonderful venue!

Highly recommend- fabulous experience

I could not have asked for a more wonderful experience with a venue. Rural setting with a fantastic setup that can be indoor or outdoor (depending on the time of year). Tables, chairs, linens, chair covers, some decor, bartenders provided as part of the package. They have packages that give you the whole weekend Friday, Saturday, and Sunday to be able to set up and tear down. I selected that option, but they also have one day events and other packages available.

The venue owners are lovely to work with, flexible, and hands-on. Second floor of the farmhouse for bridal party prep, great places for photos around the property and general area, and a refurbished barn that holds the reception/indoor ceremony areas. Gazebo for the outdoor ceremonies and plenty of parking.

I have gotten so many compliments on how beautiful my wedding was and how much the attendees loved the venue. I cannot say enough good things about this venue!!!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
