Barn is beautiful, owner is understanding, prices are reasonable

The Ponds Venue is gorgeous! My husband was gone on leave when I toured with my mom and mother-in-law. Shelly made this place feel like home! We instantly booked. When my husband returned, we were easily able to set up another tour for him to come see the venue. We loved everything about the barn. From the beautiful live edge tables, classic wood-style interior, to the gorgeous ceremony site and acreage. One thing we decided we did not like, after the wedding, was the grooms shack being separated from the venue. Other than that, everything was perfect. Julie, her coordinator was amazing. Without hiring her, our day wouldn’t have been complete! Her bartending staff and shuttle staff is wonderful as well. Thank you for a beautiful day!

Beautiful Venue

Venue was beautiful, lots of room for dancing and room for getting ready. Only complaints were that the walk to the ceremony space outside is very uneven (wasn’t an issue for us, but was for older family members), and really plan to over estimate what your alcohol cost is. We ordered more than what they had suggested, and still ran out very quickly. Overall good experience, had beautiful photos.

Fun, stress free, and relaxed

The Ponds was a perfect fit for our wedding! The venue offered something for all our guests. The venue itself was clean and beautiful. The owners truly want you to have the best day, helping in any way possible. I cannot say enough good things about The Ponds!

Best Decision Ever

This was the first and only venue my husband and I looked at then we began planning our wedding, we fell in love. It’s gorgeous without a doubt and Shelly was so great and easy to work with we couldn’t have asked for a more amazing day! Even though 20 minutes before the ceremony we had to change to have the ceremony inside due to rain it was beautiful either way! The bar staff as well as the recommended vendors she works with are all just as amazing! Thank you !

The most gorgeous venue i have ever been to!

I cannot recommend this venue enough! The Ponds Venue is AMAZING! I drove past this brand new venue last year after getting engaged and pulled my car over to admire the property from the road. I immediately made an appointment to tour the grounds and booked the same day. This was the only venue I looked at and was so blown away by everything that I knew it was where I was supposed to get married. There is already a ton of decor to make decorating simple and the venue itself is so beautiful, I personally, do not think it needs much when decorating. There are also several add-ons (clean-up, shuttle service, day-of coordinating, etc.) that helped to make my special day less stressful. The ceremony site and reception area are all at the same location which makes it very convenient for guests. Our guests could not stop raving about how gorgeous the venue was. Aside from it being a phenomenal venue, Shelly, the owner is an EXTREMELY helpful and kind individual. Our families appreciated her kind words and willingness to help at every turn. Whenever a problem arose, Shelly had a remedy. I had always dreamed about having the most perfect wedding, and I was so thrilled with the day we had at The Ponds Venue with Shelly! My husband and I were surrounded by so much love and support and it was in the most beautiful venue. I am so excited to see what future weddings and events are held here!

Absolutely Stunning! Most Impressive Venue Around!

The Ponds is so incredibly beautiful that you have to see it in person. I mean look at these photos! Our daughter had so many compliments on the venue and wedding and the location was key! It is absolutely stunning and Shelly was always accommodating and helpful and always responded when we had any questions. She let us visit several times to measure and go over plans. The decor items she has are out of this world! The wrap around fireplace, outdoor firepit, ponds, and atmosphere make this place a treasure!
