One of the best
From the Walnut Grove, to the manor, to the sprawling fields, we have no complaints photographing weddings at this venue! The staff is very hard working and friendly to vendors and clients. It is conveniently located in Fayetteville which offers many airbnb’s and lodging options for guests and a plethora of things to do. Cannot recommend them enough for your Big Day!

Excellent!
The Gaines Estate was the perfect venue for our wedding day. The property has multiple beautiful outdoor ceremony options and there are plenty of unique outdoor spaces to take photos. The Gaines Estate staff was accommodating, kind, and easy to work with. They did an excellent job making sure our day was what we envisioned!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
