    Truly exceptional!

    Every expectation was exceeded! It was a pleasure to work with Sarah W. Hunt and Harvest Caterers was so easy to work with and we received countless compliments on all the food. From our first phone call with Sarah and every step of the way it was seamless! The day was everything we had envisioned and more! South Farms is truly a special and unique venue waiting for the wedding of your dreams!

    Experience was perfect!

    We could not have had a more perfect experience if we planned it that way. Sarah B and Sarah W were professional, engaged, organized and so so helpful through the planning of my daughters wedding! Highly recommend South Farm for any occasion.

    Simply Amazing

    South Farms was the first and only venue that my husband and I visited when planning our wedding - we loved it immediately! They continued to impress throughout the planning process, responding promptly to my many emails, and were gracious enough to let us visit the venue multiple times before the big day. They were accommodating, kind, and professional. Our wedding day was perfect, due in large part to their staff and the beauty of the venue itself! We could not have asked for more from a wedding venue. The long tables in the reception hall with the mismatched chairs were unique and just awesome. We would recommend South Farms to anyone and everyone!! Huge shoutout to Sarah W and Sarah B for everything they did for us! 😊

    Perfect Venue!

    This was the only venue we visited and it was perfect! Could not be happier! South Farms has it all! We planned our wedding date around their availability. So easy and great communicating and organizing with prior to the wedding day! The outside ceremony ,the view and cocktail space were so beautiful. The dining room with the farm tables in a row was a real wow moment for our guests, walking into the dinner reception. Perfect venue for the perfect day. Thank you!

    Best Day Ever

    My husband and I just got married at South Farms and it was an absolute dream. They were so accommodating and always had an answer for us even when we felt like we were asking a thousand questions. The whole staff is so professional. We really can’t say enough about how much our guests loved the stunning grounds. Sarah Worden and Sarah Bicking and the whole team is amazing! We even had a guest who’s shoe broke and someone ran into town to get glue for them! Thank you SF for everything!!

    Beyond Expectations

    When friends ask me about my daughter's wedding, I have a quick answer: perfect feeling quite fortunate I can say so. Sarah Worden and South Farms are the reason I have such a simple, positive answer. From the moment we first visited South Farms. My gut told me this was the place a great venue and I know Sarah was first rate. Sarah's creative, pragmatic and and pleasant approach made every question/issue easy to resolve. She was available to us while planning and our onsite coordinator the day of the wedding. We found South Farms to be an idyllic venue- classic and comfortable all in one. At the same time, it's elegant and rustic. Every detail is attended to and they work effectively and cooperatively with all vendors.

    Perfect Indoor/Outdoor Expansive Yet Intimate

    We looked all over CT for the perfect venue for our daughter’s wedding (she lives abroad). We were looking for something NOT country club or hotel ballroom, but big (175 guests) and authentic. For us, South Farms was a perfect venue. The big barn holds 175 and is industrial rustic yet contemporary and cool. There is a separate bar (that opens to the outside on two sides) and a new lounge, as well as a brand new commercial kitchen. There is a courtyard between the bar and the lounge as well as perfectly maintained fields that open onto expansive rolling hills and farmland (which for us included cows!). The old storage barn where we had the ceremony was cozy and romantic. The whole space feels open and airy, intimate but not crowded, outdoors BUT ok if it rained. Sarah, who was our main point of contact, couldn’t have been more responsive and helpful. EVERY one of the vendors she recommended was a pleasure to work with and delivered in spades. Ben, the owner, has done everything possible to keep the cattle farm authenticity and fantastic Litchfield vibe alive. All of our guests were raving about the venue. It was absolutely perfect.

    The Most Gorgeous Barn Venue and Property!

    The minute you step out of your car at South Farms you feel at home. I have attended events here and photographed them. The owner and staff has created the most gorgeous place for you and your family to enjoy your most memorable times. Although it’s run really professionally and is stunning it feels homey. You will feel like you’ve known the staff and this place for years. They think of every detail and work in the background seamlessly and let the gorgeous landscape set the mood for a relaxing and absolutely amazing event. I love South Farms and the people that make it part of the community.

    We just got married at South Farms on 9/8/18 and couldn't have asked for a better venue! This was the first venue we looked at and immediately we both fell in love! No other venue could even come close to the beauty of South Farms! From the beautiful barn, the gardens, to farm, to the lawn, it is just beautiful! The barn itself is honestly the nicest and most amazing barn venue in CT! Of course, Sarah Worden and Sarah B. were also fantastic to work with! There were probably hundreds of emails I sent with tons of questions but they were always answered quickly! They really helped to pull my vision together on the day of the wedding! South Farms was the perfect setting for our perfect day!

    We love South Farms! We just had our wedding reception there and everything was amazing and beautiful. From the start, Sarah made everything so easy. We first fell in love with the venue and property. Sarah answered every question we had, provided us with guidance around many decisions we had to make, and the list of vendors helped us greatly! Sarah was our day of coordinator and everything went smoothly. Ben was very friendly and accommodating at the end of the evening. My husband and I are so happy we found South Farms!

    We had planned on looking at a few venues before deciding on one, but we went to South Farms first and instantly fell in love! Sarah and the South Farms team were very accommodating to our needs and decor vision. They gave us great recommendations for vendors and the entire night went by flawlessly. We would highly recommend South Farms to anyone and we hope to go back in the future!!

    South Farms is an incredibly beautiful place. We are so happy we had our wedding there. Sarah and Ben were fantastic, easy to work with, and accommodating when our families wanted to see the venue and we needed to drop items off the day before our wedding. It was great to have Sarah as our day of coordinator. She and Ben made sure everything went smoothly even with the weather not cooperating. They also have a great list of recommended vendors. If you are looking for a picturesque venue surrounded by nature, South Farms should definitely be on your list.

    I couldn't have asked for a more picture perfect venue for our wedding day! The rustic charm was everything we could have dreamed of and more! From the day Ben showed us around the property to countless emails back and forth to Sarah, the team at South Farms helped to make our day fabulous! We are so grateful to have had such a perfect day!

    We had a Saturday night summer wedding with 180 people, and about a year to plan. Sarah Worden and South Farms were such a dream come true — accommodating, happy to answer questions, super transparent and honest about what was reasonable versus what wouldn't work, and really helpful when it came to finding vendors. Not to mention the fact that the space is absolutely stunning and unique in so many ways. I can't recommend them enough!

    We had an amazing experience working with South Farms for our June wedding! The whole staff was awesome to work with, making the process as stress free as possible. The whole farm is breathtaking, making for an incredibly unique backdrop for a wedding. Our guests were blown away by the natural beauty of the property and the creativity of the design of the indoor space. We could not have hoped for a better spot for our special day and look forward to returning to the farm for many of their great events in the future! Thank you South Farms!

    Thank you South Farms for the most magical wedding day! We loved working with Sarah and Ben to help make our wedding dreams come true. The venue itself is so special, really allowing the bride and groom to customize it and make it their own. Sarah gave us so many amazing suggestions on vendors and really helped bring our vision together. I wish we could do it all over again. THANK YOU South Farms!

    This is a beautiful venue for a wedding. Sarah was wonderful to work with, plus she is also a florist who did an amazing job with the flowers for my daughter's wedding. During the planning phase, Sarah was open to our ideas and was able to help us perfect these ideas and bring them to fruition. On the day of the wedding, the venue looked so beautiful. It was exactly as we had envisioned. I will say that this is the type of venue where you will have to bring in a caterer of your choice. They will give you recommendations. You may also need to be more involved than if you were at a "one stop shopping" venue. But this will allow you to achieve the wedding of your dreams. My daughter and new son in law were thrilled with their day at South Farms.

    South Farms was amazing - absolutely the perfect place for our wedding and reception. The venue is stunning and doesn't even really need any decoration. So many of our guests commented on how beautiful the venue, scenery and our wedding was! We got married in the stone barn, and it was magical with the lighting, cozy and romantic vibe and the sound of the pouring rain on the roof. Sarah and Ben were so helpful during every step of the planning process and really went out of their way to help our day go smoothly when some last minute things didn't go as planned. We wish we could do it all over again!

    I couldn't have loved South Farms or its staff more. They are friendly, accommodating, and completely professional. They helped us sort through options with catering, florists and photographers, helped take charge schedule and coordination day of, and provided a beautiful, clean, gorgeous venue. I am so happy we found this venue, and took a "risk" being one of the first weddings held in the space. Ben and Sarah and the staff are incredibly talented and have such great taste. South Farms is such a wonderful resource for the Litchfield community!

    We just love South Farms! From the moment we stepped onto the property, we knew it was the venue for us. They're big supporters of local, which means a lot to us, and the venue is just stunning. They communicated well throughout the process and worked with us as we finalized all our details. They had great recommendations for tents and plates etc. and even surprised us by staying up late the night before our wedding to put the finishing touches on the Stone Barn so it looked in top shape for our rainy and chilly ceremony. The farm tables in the barn were perfect and the mix-matched chairs made it feel like home. We wish we didn't live so far away so we could go to the farmer's market every week and still support them. We often talk about how our wedding was the best day ever and so much of that had to do with the folks at South Farms. We'd do it all over again with them if we could!
