We loved Vanderwende Acres!!

I cannot say enough good things about my experience at Vanderwende Acres!! This venue is beautiful and was perfect for our wedding day. The coordinators and staff are amazing to work with and made my wedding day stress free! We had an issue with our desserts and some other small things the day of our wedding. Sarah, the venue director, and her staff went out of their way to make sure everything was ok and that I didn’t have to stress about it at all!! Sarah communicated with me so well while I was planning and helped me make decisions related to COVID and anything else I needed! I highly recommend this venue for anyone planning a wedding, we had the best experience!!

The most amazing day-

I found this venue shortly after getting engaged and immediately knew it was the one. It’s stunning. My husband and I got married on October 28th at Vanderwende Acres and we are over the moon by how perfect it was. Working with Sarah was such a joy and the whole process was stress free. The whole venue is carefully thought out- and the bonus it’s that is so beautiful you don’t need much to decorate! Thank you Sarah for such a magical day!

My name is Sarah, I'm the Venue Director at VA. I have been in the wedding industry since 2018 and have loved every minute since. We'll work together from the time you book your tour until you leave for your honeymoon! My favorite part of every wedding is the adrenaline rush moments before sending the bride down the aisle.

A few fun facts about me - I am married to my best friend, and we are the proudest dog parents! I love to cook, all things Bachelor, and am probably shopping at Target on my days off. Enough about me, let's chat about your dream wedding!

Xx,
Sarah
