Amazing Venue, Amazing People

The venue was absolutely beautiful. It is charming, rustic, and whimsical. The owners add in so many personal touches that truly make your day feel special. They give each couple a special lock to add to a fence on site which was so unique and special. They are extremely accommodating and while there are particular requirements to adhere to, they made sure we had everything we needed/wanted for our dream wedding. The communication was always available and all our questions/concerns were always addressed quickly. Melissa was AMAZING and made sure the event ran perfectly.

Fast. Efficient, Accommodating

The Garten’s and their event coordinator Melissa are one of the most professional, on the ball teams I’ve ever worked with in any capacity. Highly recommend following their guidance, especially if event planning is not your forte lol! The Venue itself feels like an Eden the day of your wedding with impeccably beautiful, natural grounds. 10/10 recommend!

Dreamy venue, top notch day of coordinator, and amazing owners!

We had such an amazing experience with Winding Creek Farm. We toured a ton of barn venues but none of them felt authentic until we got to Winding Creek. From the moment we stepped onto the property, we knew this was our place. Throughout our year of planning, Melissa, Kim and Craig were there to answer all of our questions (and believe me when I say it, we were EXTREMELY needy with questions), let us come out to the barn multiple times, and went out of their way to help us arrange things with other vendors. The barn itself is beautiful, intimate, and truly gives off fairytale vibes. Our day was such a dream. I don’t have a single negative thing to say about this venue, the owners, or the day of coordinator, Melissa. They all knocked it out of the park. Our day was so relaxing, which you hardly ever hear brides say, thanks to them. Thank you, Winding Creek Farm!
