The most all inclusive venue you will find!
We could not say enough great things about our venue. We booked pre pandemic and were fortunate enough to not have to move.
The best part was having the lodging on site for our guests. Most of our guest we hadn’t seen in months so having the opportunity to stay with them for more than one night was amazing. We had stellar service from the bar and wait staff and had no issues when it came to the day of our wedding! We were even able to have our dogs with us all weekend!We could not say enough great things about our venue. We booked pre pandemic and were fortunate enough to not have to move.

Words cannot adequately express how much we loved having our wedding at Cedar Creek, but I'll try. The coordinators, Krissy and Jennifer, were fantastic to work with and totally would have gone to the moon and back for us. I did my own flowers and Jennifer stood in the kitchen and helped the groom and I dethorn 125 roses 2 days before the wedding. Setup, the rehearsal dinner and the big day all went perfectly and I have absolutely nothing negative to say. Most of our guests stayed at the site, as well, as having everyone able to stay up late celebrating and still safely make it to bed was important to us. Over a month later, family and friends are still gushing over how fun the wedding weekend was, and how beautiful the setting was. We'll definitely come back for anniversaries and beer fests!Words cannot adequately express how much we loved having our wedding at Cedar Creek, but I'll try.

We had our reception in The Barn at Cedar Creek. It was amazing! The space held our 300 guests. B/c we so many people we had to rearrange tables and chairs when the it was time to open the dance floor, but this could be avoided if we had less people. They gave us the option to use a caterer or Cedar Creek for food. We used Cedar Creek and it was delicious. The BEST was we had the option to secure the whole property (200 acres) and some of the other buildings/facilities, not just use of The Barn, for an additional cost. They have lodging for ~100 or so, and we were able to negotiate a cost for all the rooms so that a good number of our guests could stay and celebrate with us all night long! They staff was helpful, cherry, and they allowed us to customize our event so that it was perfect for us. They accommodated unique requests. Our band sounded amazing in the space - initially we were concerned about the echo, but a 9 piece band fit and sounded great. Although we only had the reception here (wedding was closer to the city) the property was amazing and if we didn't opt for a church wedding would have loved to have the ceremony outside near the lake. They seem to be able to accommodate a wide budget range - we could have booked only The Barn but loved all the ammenities so much we wanted our guests to enjoy the whole property and have the whole thing to ourselves. Our guests were able to enjoy "cocktail hour" in the Western Town before heading to The Barn for dinner and dancing. Everyone was talking about how great the place was. We had an amazing time, it was everything we wanted.We had our reception in The Barn at Cedar Creek. It was amazing! The space held our 300 guests.

The perfect picturesque venue for our rustic Fall wedding! The staff at Cedar Creek went above and beyond. They were always quick to respond and very accommodating. For example, I ended up with fewer guests than expected (around 90) and they were more than willing to throw in upgrades so I can make up the difference. We did upgrade the bar package to include local alcohols such as Pickney Bend spirits, Robler Hill wines, and Second Shift Brewery beers. The food--oh man, it was SO good, I made darn sure I had time to eat (lots of people told me that the couple doesn't get time to eat--nope, not here). The rolling hills in the background as we said our vows, the patio lit up at nights with bright stars in the sky, the warm fire pit around which we smoked s'mores (while still being able to hear the band inside), the AMAZING modern barn where we settled in for the evening--everything was perfect! All our guests who wanted to stay overnight were able to do so. Some even stayed the weekend to enjoy all the other things Cedar Creek and the town of New Haven has to offer. Price wise, this was much cheaper than some of the options I looked at in St. Louis. It was about a one hour drive for most of our guests, which is not terrible at all. Most of the drive is through beautiful country roads anyway. I can't recommend Cedar Creek enough. We'll definitely be back to celebrate our one year anniversary next year.The perfect picturesque venue for our rustic Fall wedding! The staff at Cedar Creek went above and beyond.

We LOVED having our wedding at Cedar Creek! We chose the barn location, which is perfect for anyone because you can make this space what you want it to be. They are very supportive of having you decorate how you'd like, and let us come multiple times before the wedding to set up. The barn is very charming with the light wood, there is lots of light, and the deck with fire pit is an added bonus. Our contact at the venue (Krissy) was extremely helpful--- always answered emails and phone calls, was very accommodating, and got to know us on a personal level. The prices are reasonable, food great, and we loved that coming to Cedar Creek was such an experience for our guests. The area of the venue is beautiful, and we loved that we got to spend the night on the property the night of the wedding, and they let us stay the next day as long as we liked to.We LOVED having our wedding at Cedar Creek!

Marina and Patrick,
We were honored to be your venue of choice for your special day! Your special touches made the Barn feel so inviting! We loved Patrick's dedication to decorating for you Marina, with all the Chinese lanterns. Wishing the both of you the best! -

It was the most amazing day Cody, I, and our family could have ever asked for. We are beyond thankful for Jeni, Chef Charles, Patrick and the entire cedar creek staff! We signed a contract September 2015. Then 6 months before May 7, 2016 we got an email saying the original wedding coordinator is no longer with cedar creek. We were very anxious about this change. After the news, Cody and I spent an afternoon getting to know Jeni. We thoroughly enjoyed getting to know her. After a few short months of continuing to get to know Jeni, she had to relay a not so easy message and informed Cody and I that cedar creek over booked on the evening of our rehearsal dinner and our families could no longer stay in the lodging. Originally this was essentially a deal breaker for us because having a venue to handle the ceremony, reception and lodging was a dream come true to accommodate for all family members. We found it very difficult to budge because we had signed a contract. Jeni was more than accommodating and flexible and turned every negative into a positive. She was apologetic, and went above and beyond to accomodate. A glitch in computer system failed to show the other group when we signed contract. This error was out of her control and she accommodated to make error more accepting. May 7 was the most perfect day at cedar creek. The food was delicious thanks to chef Charles and his staff. Our menu included: BBQ grilled chicken, beef brisket, roasted red potatoes, vegetables medley, salad and rolls. Our ceremony was at 4:30 down by the lake and our friends and family loved the wagon rides. During downtime, all of our friends and family enjoyed the western town, town hall, tasting room, and games out on the lawn. Reception started at 6:30 in the barn which was outstandingly beautiful. Jeni and the cedar creek staff were all accommodating and readily available every minute on May 6 and 7. I would not have ever dreamed for a better day for Cody and I.It was the most amazing day Cody, I, and our family could have ever asked for.

Nice Day But Terrible Planning Process
We had an absolutely amazing wedding day. However, there were definitely some cons along the way that made the wedding planning process less than enjoyable. I want to be able to give a great review because of Anna and Ellen of Cedar Creek. The wedding side of things is handled by a company out of St.Louis and no one seemed to be on the same page or know who was in charge of things. If there was a question or concern they were often pawned off on others and we had to contact numerous people before finally getting an answer.
PROS: -Venue is BEAUTIFUL. -They gave a same year wedding discount that helped us to afford it. -You could come out and do as many tours with family as you want. -You can take engagement photos at the venue for no additional charge. -Anna was our coordinator for lodging and she did her very best to help accommodate us and even was able to get lower rates on the rooms. (The pricing is extremely high for what there is.) -Everything went off without a hitch day of.
CONS: -Communication was less than stellar. It was very difficult to get any response on honeybook, email, or text. -Pricing was very high because you are required to use their caterer now and have an open bar which put the cost at a minimum of $85 per person and $20 for kids. -The staff was rude when asked about adjusting the chairs for the ceremony and one of them was even complaining about it to an outside person who happened to work with the best man. -Though we were told that any leftover Kraken rum from the ceremony would be free at the after party for the Bride/Groom and parents, this was not communicated to the after party staff and we were not able to drink it there. (Though they did send the bottles with us at the end of the night.) -There was supposed to be staff helping to park and direct guests but instead the guests were very confused and did not know where to go to get to the ceremony. -The guests were supposed to be able to get food at the Town Hall restaurant after the ceremony, but without communicating to the bride/groom or anyone for that matter, the Town Hall was not open for food, only drinks. -During our pre-wedding meeting, we chose the linen color for the tables and requested ivory which was currently on the tables and my fiance and I had both said Ivory and instead we got white. When that was mentioned, we were met with attitude and told there was nothing that could be done and no attempt was made to make up for the mistake. Again, overall the day was amazing and beautiful! Anna and Ellen were WONDERFUL to work with!We had an absolutely amazing wedding day. However, there were definitely some cons along the way that made the wedding planning process less than enjoyable.
