Akshita Sent on 02/15/2026Absolutely Amazing!!
My husband and I do not have enough words to describe how amazing this venue is, but, more importantly, how beyond amazing the staff are!! We worked with Christina (wedding planner), Thaddeus (bar manager), and Alex (catering manager). This was truly a dream team. We also got help from entire VVF team and got to know Suzy and David (owners), who were so sweet and welcoming to us from the first time we visited and every time we saw them after. My husband and I are a multi-racial couple (Black and Indian), so we had a multi-cultural wedding. The VVF team worked closely with us to ensure traditions on both sides really shined. Christina went above and beyond throughout the whole process and really supported us. She stepped in mid planning process as our original planner, Shannon (also amazing) transitioned to a new job, and she didn’t miss a beat. She was extremely considerate of how we wanted to do things while also keeping us on track with essentials/things to consider as we moved along and it made our process so much easier than it would’ve been otherwise. Alex and Zofia worked with us to make the most AMAZING menu of Indian and Soul food. We loved it so much and all of our guests were raving about how it was the best food they ever had at a wedding. We couldn’t speak highly enough of how accommodating they were of a menu that would’ve been probably impossible to do well anywhere else. Thaddeus made us the most amazing cocktails and mocktails. He was a delight to work with during our tasting process and even the drinks that we didn’t select were awesome. The entire service team was incredibly attentive and hospitable. So many people made a point to let us know how remarkable the service was and we felt that too constantly seeing people checking in with guests and making sure that food trays were refilled. We also want to highlight how comfortable everybody at every stage of the process made us feel, especially as people of color in a very white area. We would wholeheartedly recommend this place to anybody. -

Joe Sent on 12/14/2025We HIGHLY recommend Valley View Farm!
We had our wedding at Valley View on October 3rd and it could not have been more perfect. We first found Valley View from a post that showed up on social media, and we decided to look into them because (obviously) it looked gorgeous. From the jump, we absolutely loved the transparency from Valley View - their website not only had their calendar availability so we could see if our desired dates were available, but also their pricing so we could understand without an awkward phone call whether or not it was in-budget. We also loved that the price included a dedicated Wedding Coordinator. After our initial inquiry and a tour with Christina, we knew Valley View was the place. They responded quickly to all of our questions via email and Christina walked us through what an entire wedding day at Valley View would look like on our tour. Luckily, Christina ended up being our coordinator because SHE. WAS. AMAZING.
We loved her from day one, but getting to work with her for the year leading up to the wedding was truly so much fun. She’s super friendly and chill, but SO on top of her game. We rested easy headed into the wedding day knowing that Christina was all over every detail and that we wouldn’t have to worry about anything except having fun and enjoying our day. Our entire wedding party couldn’t stop raving about how great she was.
Beyond Christina, everyone at Valley View is so friendly, down-to-earth, and willing to go out of their way to make your day special. Working with Cassie and Tadd and the rest of the catering/bar team was just as much of a delight as working with Christina. They both took the time to understand what we loved, what we didn’t love, the type of experience we wanted to give our guests and accommodated (or at least laughed along with) every silly idea we had. The whole team was always willing to brainstorm to make our day perfect. The day of our wedding we also were so lucky to have Dan and Oscar helping support Christina and us. Dan was so kind and made me feel like the most beautiful bride before I walked down the aisle (thanks for the hype, Dan!!)
David and Sue, the owners of Valley View, always greeted us with warm hugs and genuine conversation (plus extra visits with Molly and Dolly, the gorgeous horses). From top to bottom, everyone at Valley View will always have a special place in our hearts - and our calendars! We plan to return to Muse Cider Bar and events at Valley View any chance we get. We can’t recommend this venue strongly enough. If you’re reading this, CHOOSE VALLEY VIEW! -

Marissa Sent on 11/12/2025Obsessed with our venue
It’s hard to put into words just how perfect our wedding day was — and how much of that we owe to this incredible venue and team. The venue itself is breathtaking. One of the things that drew us in was its natural beauty and New England charm — we barely needed to decorate because it already had so much character and warmth. Our guests were stunned by how gorgeous it was, inside and out. It was the place I knew I needed for the fall wedding I wanted.
Our wedding planner, Dan, deserves the highest praise. He’s beyond talented at what he does — organized, thoughtful, communicative, and just an overall wonderful person to be around. By the time our wedding day arrived, he felt like a friend. I could laugh with him, rely on him completely, and trust that everything was being handled with care and perfection.
One of the biggest reasons we chose this venue was the food. I have celiac disease, and it was important to me to have a completely gluten-free wedding for my safety and peace of mind. From our very first meeting, I could tell how knowledgeable and attentive the team was. They understood my needs intimately, took every precaution, and made me feel safe and reassured throughout the entire process. And the food? Absolutely amazing. Our guests raved about it, and the late-night mac and cheese truck made my 10 p.m. bridal self VERY happy.
Every single person we worked with — from the bar staff to the catering team — was kind, professional, and genuinely happy to be there celebrating with us. You could feel the heart behind their work. We also loved how personal the experience felt; the owners took the time to get to know us, stopped by to congratulate us on our day, and even gave my dad a bottle of maple syrup from the farm as a sweet keepsake!!
The entire day was flawless — perfectly planned, beautifully executed, and filled with so much love. We can’t thank this team enough for giving us the absolute best day of our lives, and the pups and us can’t wait to come back and visit in the future! -

Julia Sent on 11/08/2025Have Your Dream Wedding at VVF!!
We had our dream wedding at Valley View Farm this past May, and we could not be happier with our decision to have VVF as our wedding venue! From start to finish, the entire VVF team made us feel like family, and they went above and beyond at every step of the wedding planning process to make everything as smooth and fun as possible. Besides the farm being absolutely gorgeous, the quality of the wedding planning services, food, and drinks at VVF is unparalleled. VVF was even able to accommodate our request for an entirely gluten free, Celiac-safe wedding, and we were blown away by how incredible all the food was! The freshly made GF bread was the best I’ve ever had by far. Our guests are STILL raving about how amazing the food and drinks were at our wedding!
What really makes VVF stand apart from other wedding venues, though, is the people that work there. The owners Suzy and David were extremely welcoming and actually spent time with us while we were at the farm. I could write a novel about how much we loved working with our wedding planner Dan, who is truly phenomenal and a big reason why we choose VVF as our wedding venue. In brief, Dan wasn’t intimidated by my 150 questions (I wish I was exaggerating!) during our initial venue tour, provided excellent guidance on vendor selection, flawlessly handled any special requests from our guests, thought of solutions to problems before they occurred, and was there for us for whatever we needed throughout the wedding planning process and during our wedding. We felt confident booking VVF as our wedding venue because Dan had the skills and expertise to handle any problem that may have come up during our wedding. Dan ended up being a total lifesaver when our wedding photographer gave birth immediately before our wedding and there was a sudden and intense thunderstorm right before our ceremony! Dan knew exactly what to do and he made sure our precious wedding moments were photographed beautifully and he kept me dry and happy throughout the weather changes during our wedding. Dan was there for whatever we (or our family and friends) needed, and we can’t imagine our wedding without him. He carried my wedding gown train, reminded me when to refresh my lipstick, gave me sips of iced coffee or a cocktail in between photos whenever possible, and perfectly arranged and broke down all of our precious wedding decor. We are eternally thankful for everything Dan did to help make our wedding perfect.
Picking VVF as our wedding venue was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding, and we cannot recommend it highly enough! It was worth every penny. You won’t regret having your wedding at VVF!! -

This venue was absolutely beautiful. The staff, the wedding planner (Christina), the owners have gone out of their way to ensure the perfect day for my daughter and her husband. I would highly recommend this venue for any occasion. You’re treated like gold! -

Danielle Sent on 08/16/2025The best decision we've ever made
Our September 14th, 2024 wedding at Valley View Farm truly felt like coming home. From the very beginning, everything was seamlessly organized and consolidated at the venue, which made the planning process feel easy and stress-free. The location itself is secluded and intimate, and the entire team is genuinely invested in creating an experience that feels like family.
Working with Dan LaFlamme was one of the highlights of our wedding journey. He approached us as more than clients—he felt like a true friend. Dan gave honest, constructive feedback, supported both of us equally, and made it a priority to really get to know who we were as a couple. Countless guests commented on how impressed they were with him—many noting they never saw him sit down once! He ran the entire day flawlessly, ensuring that every single detail was handled without us ever needing to worry. From planning the perfect first looks to making sure our grandparents could get around easily on golf carts, Dan thought of everything and made sure all our loved ones felt included and cared for.
Thaddeus Goff created an incredible bar program for our wedding. The tasting was one of the most fun parts of planning—we even got to bring our Maid of Honor along. Together, we landed on our perfect signature drinks (a Painkiller and a Watermelon Margarita) that felt personal and fresh. Guests raved about them, and we loved how professional yet creative he was in helping us choose something that reflected us.
Suzy Fortgang, the owner, was warm, welcoming, and present throughout the process. Having owners so involved and hands-on made it feel even more special, like we were part of a close-knit family.
And then there was the food—Bekah Simeone was incredible. I’ll never forget chatting through the menu with her over the phone while sitting in our garage, and how her attention to detail and excitement made us feel. Our tasting dinner with past and future Valley View couples was such a memorable experience, and the menu we built together was something our guests are still talking about. The food was outstanding, and as people who love bringing others together over a great meal, it meant the world to us to have it be so personal.
The wedding day itself is something we will truly cherish forever. People always say your wedding will be the best day of your life, and while that phrase can sound cliché, it was absolutely true for us. Our guests told us repeatedly it was the best wedding they had ever been to, and we couldn’t agree more. The gorgeous weather let us enjoy the firepits outside, and the addition of a food truck made the whole celebration feel so unique and memorable.
We cannot recommend Valley View Farm enough. If you’re considering getting married here, lean into their expertise—especially with Dan. His knowledge and care lifted so much of the mental load off our shoulders and allowed us to truly enjoy every part of the process. Thanks to this incredible team, we didn’t just have a wedding—we had an experience that reflected us completely and one we’ll treasure for a lifetime. -

Katie Sent on 07/28/2025The wedding of our dreams!
We truly had the most incredible experience at Valley View Farm — it’s hard to put into words just how special this place is. From start to finish, everything was seamless, beautiful, and filled with joy. We could not have asked for a more perfect day, and that is entirely thanks to the exceptional team at Valley View.
A very, VERY special shout-out goes to Dan, our amazing wedding planner, who went above and beyond in every possible way. Dan was with us every step of the way during the planning process — always calm, supportive, and thoughtful. But what truly blew us away was how he single-handedly brought our wedding day to life. Dan handled every detail with such care and professionalism, allowing us to actually relax, be present, and fully enjoy the day. It was truly a dream come true, and we know for certain it wouldn’t have been the same without him.
The catering team and bar staff were also phenomenal. We had so many guests tell us that it was the best wedding meal they’ve ever had. The food, the drinks, the cocktail hour… everything was top-notch and beautifully executed.
The venue itself is breathtaking, but what really sets Valley View Farm apart is the warmth and heart behind it. The owners, staff, and entire team make you feel genuinely welcome — like you’re celebrating somewhere familiar, but with all the elegance and charm of a truly one-of-a-kind venue.
If we could do it all over again, we wouldn’t change a single thing. We are beyond grateful to Dan and the Valley View team for giving us a day we will never forget. It’s a place we will always hold close to our hearts, and we recommend it with every ounce of enthusiasm we have.

Shannon Sent on 07/23/2025The best wedding venue!
I truly cannot express how special Valley View Farm is! We had our wedding on May 31st, 2025 and despite the rain, we had the BEST day! From when we first booked Valley View in November 2023, they did so much to make us feel special - from the consistent touch points to the tasting dinners and other events, Valley View makes you feel like family from early on in the process. We worked with Dan as our wedding planner (through Valley View) and he was phenomenal! We felt minimal stress through the entire planning process, and we were able to truly sit back, relax, and enjoy the day of because of his attention to detail and expertise in wedding planning. Dan and his team took care of everything! The venue is absolutely stunning and I cannot say enough good things about the food and drink - we got tons of comments from our guests about how incredible the food was. Truly some of the best wedding food and drinks you'll find! I wish we could have a wedding at Valley View Farm every year, and I would recommend getting married there to anyone. Thank you, Valley View! -

Katherine Sent on 07/13/2025The most incredible wedding venue!
It is hard to know where to begin when writing about our wedding just last month at Valley View Farm. While the property itself is breathtakingly beautiful, it is their people who shone the brightest throughout the planning process, straight through the conclusion of our wedding.
On our first visit to Valley View, we were warmly greeted by Suzy and David, who offered us samples of their farm-brewed cider and immediately made us feel like part of the Valley View family.
Being matched with Dan LaFlamme as our wedding planner was an absolute godsend. There are no words that can adequately describe just how incredible Dan was throughout the wedding planning process, especially on our wedding day. His calming presence and sense of humor brought legitimate joy and laughter to what could be an overtly stressful process. On our wedding day, he was nothing short of heroic. He juggled countless responsibilities without appearing at all stressed…all while ensuring that my husband and I (and our families) were never without a drink in hand.
We thoroughly enjoyed working with Zofia and Jake from the catering team. They created a menu that was uniquely ours and actively sought out opportunities to accommodate those with dietary restrictions and allergies. All the members of the catering team were true professionals throughout the planning process. Multiple guests commented that the food was easily the best they’ve had at a wedding, rivaling top restaurants.
Thaddeus, our beverage director, brought a fun and creative approach to crafting our signature cocktails. His experience and passion for all things bar-related truly shone throughout the planning process. Thad hosted a fantastic cocktail tasting, mixing a myriad of delicious beverages for us to try, which we really appreciated.
Oscar and Shannon were incredibly helpful on the day of the wedding, especially as morning rain brought its own set of challenges.
Overall, our wedding experience was incredible. The team created what was truly the greatest night of our lives, and we cannot recommend Valley View Farm enough. -

We HIGHLY RECOMMEND Valley View Farm as a wedding venue!!!! Our experience with the VVF staff was nothing short of exceptional! Awesome communication from the start and everything was laid out for us in a timeline to ensure as little stress as possible throughout the planning. Our iwedding planner, Christina, was there for us with ANYTHING we needed prior to our big day as well as our wedding day! (A big thank you Christina for blow drying my dress numerous times so I wouldn’t freeze! lol) Our bar manager, Thaddeus was also amazing, he helped us create the perfect signature cocktails for cocktail hour & were able to accommodate a mocktail as well! Also a big thank you to the catering team, especially Zofia & Alexandra who were very responsive and curated the best menu for our big day! Our wedding planner coordinators Oscar & Shannon were very organized and made sure to keep our timeline on schedule! Lastly, a big thank you to the owners, Suzy & David for creating a beautiful venue & allowing us to get some amazing pictures with the horses, Molly & Dolly!! We cannot wait to visit soon!!! -

My husband and I had the most absolutely beautiful and perfect wedding that we could have dreamed of on September 1st, 2024 - and we have Valley View Farm to thank for it all. From the stunning venue, to the beautiful grounds, to the wonderful owners Suzy and David, to ALL of the incredible staff and to the amazing Dan LaFlamme (our VVF wedding planner) - Valley View Farm is truly a special place.
We looked at many, many wedding venues but the moment we stepped foot at Valley View Farm we knew we finally found our place. Suzy, John and Dan were immediately so welcoming and made us feel at home.
Stephanie (our catering manager) and Thaddeus (our bar manager) were absolutely incredible - both so kind, patient and passionate about what they do. Both made sure that our vision was coming to life every step of the way. Our friends and family have not stopped raving at how it was one of the best wedding meals and drinks they have ever had.
Dan LaFlamme, our VVF wedding planner, is one in a million. We could not have asked for someone more perfect to join us during such a special period in our lives. He was there for us every single step of the way. He made us both feel calm and confident when our nerves were at their highest, and he truly let us be fully present in the day without a worry in the world.
It is completely evident how much care and passion goes into absolutely everything Valley View Farm does - from the big picture of the wedding day to every single little detail. Not only did VVF take great care of my husband and I, but they took great care of both of our families and all of our guests throughout the entire day.
We are forever grateful for finding Valley View Farm, and it becoming the place where we finally became husband and wife. We knew it was a special place - but for all of our friends and family to walk away from our day knowing that as well, means so, so much to us. Anyone looking for somewhere truly special for their wedding, look no further. Thank you, Valley View!

Brandon Sent on 10/08/2024The Perfect Wedding, at the Perfect Venue
We selected Valley View Farm for our fall wedding and it was absolutely perfect! First off- all of the staff there were incredible. They were very accommodating, excellent with communication, as well as having impressive organization for wedding day planning. They are truly professionals. Our wedding planner was Christina and we honestly could not have gotten through the chaos of wedding planning without her! She was so organized and went over every last detail of our special day to make sure that it went exactly as we planned it. And, it did! Our wedding went off without a hitch, and weeks later, I still have multiple people complimenting me on how well she managed the day, as well as the rest of the staff! Everyone has mentioned how impressed they were with Christina and how she went above and beyond for our day! Everyone also keeps raving about the waiters/waitresses/and bar staff and how nice and efficient they were. Not to mention, their food is ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS! I honestly think about going to future food tasting events, simply because our experience at the first one was so amazing and the food was so good! Valley View takes wedding's to the next level. I have had multiple people tell us that our wedding was the best wedding they have ever attended, and that would not be possible without this beautiful farm location, wonderful staff catering to the event, and especially our life-saver Christina. Even behind the scenes, all the staff is amazing. Zofia and Bekah from catering accommodated our every need, especially for our vegan/gluten free friends! They met with us multiple times to make sure our menu was perfect! Oscar, who does a little bit of everything, was also absolutely amazing. Not only is he just an all-around great guy, he helped us select our perfect signature drinks during our drink tasting! He also was a helping hand on wedding day and made sure all our needs were met. The owners Sue and David definitely create an atmosphere of kindness and choose their employees carefully, because every person there is so wonderful. Sue and David themselves are very kind. I feel like the people at Valley View make you feel at home. And that is exactly the kind of warm, intimate environment we were looking for when selecting a venue. I 100% would recommend this venue to anyone I know. And we look forward to visiting in the future and going to get a few drinks at their Muse Cider Bar, where they make their own delicious cider! Thank you to everyone at VVF that made our wedding the most special day of our lives!! :) -

Kaileela Sent on 07/06/2024Most Magical Day of All Time
We just had our wedding at Valley View Farm and it was the most perfect day we could have asked for. The farm property is big and beautiful, and offers a lot of options for how to use the space throughout the day depending on the weather and your preference. Every space, from the barn to the patio to the farmhouse we stayed in, to the gorgeous grounds, was so well designed and maintained. But the real heroes here are the people — the owners, Suzy and David, are incredibly nice and put a lot of heart into running the place, and every single staff member was kind, knowledgeable, and patient. Special shout-out to our wedding coordinator Christina, who was AMAZING to work with—both on the day, as well as the several months leading up. We recommend Valley View wholeheartedly and without any reservations. -

Lydia Sent on 11/17/2023Book it!!!
You're reading this because you are deciding if you want to book Valley View for your wedding - and I am here to tell you to do it!!! The location and property are gorgeous and the staff are fantastic at what they do. We felt so supported to bring our ideas to reality - from helping with vendor decisions and communication, ideating on a theme and designs, to having all the details under control. Don't let the cost throw you off - that covers all the awesome things they have to offer - no upcharging along the way for normal stuff like chairs or napkins (PS the decor is already stunning so you don't have to do much). They care about sustainability and the local community, especially with the DELICIOUS food, as well. I really can't say enough about Shannon (our wedding planner, a service that comes with your booking) who helped us have the most fantastic day. I doubt it would have been half as amazing without her. Working with her, Stephanie the catering manager, Thad the bar manager, and the whole staff to plan for over a year was easy and fun - and on the wedding day we saw them in action to make everything perfect. The owners even let us invite their farm dog, Rosie, and bought one of the horses, Penny, out to the field for us to take pictures with. I could go on about how they have literally thought of everything but really all you need to know is - if you can, you MUST book with Valley View! -

Brittany Sent on 10/10/2023Unbelievably beautiful day
Wow, just wow. We recently hosted our wedding at Valley View Farm, and words cannot describe how wonderful it was working with the entire VVF team from start to finish. Alex Kessler and Christina Sheils helped keep us on track throughout the planning process, and oversaw the day of logistics (which is no small feat, especially given that it rained). Wedding planning can be A LOT, but Alex and Christina made it manageable and enjoyable, and went above and beyond our expectations consistently. We are going to miss them...they are both gems.
The venue itself is gorgeous - naturally beautiful, and very well maintained. I love the story behind the property - the barns/pavillion were repurposed from nearby properties, and much of the material was reused for interior decorations (like the tables and chairs). They also offer so many decor options that you really don't need much for your big day. But if you decide to provide decorations for tablescapes and such (which I did), the VVF team helped set everything up after I explained my vision and they just killed it. I was so impressed, and it helped relieve that stress the day of. Set up and break down was so smooth, and required very little from us.
And then there's the food...the catering team blew us out of the water with what they put together. We heard from our guests that this was the best wedding and food they've experienced...ever! The process of putting the menu together was smooth and easy.
Main takeaway - the VVF team is a team of professional rockstars who deeply care about making your big day as stress-free and logistically smooth as possible. We are so grateful for everything they did for us and our guests, and we will certainly never forget it. -

My wedding day at Valley View was without a doubt one of the happiest days of my life! Words don’t even begin to do the beautiful venue, impressive bar & catering team, delicious food & drinks, and (most of all) our planner, Dan, justice. Dan’s incredible organization, professionalism, attention to detail, and all around kindness throughout the process were unforgettable. He made August 5th a breeze and a joy for so many people. I can’t recommend Valley View and the entire team enough. -

Kayla Sent on 06/19/2023Best Venue Ever! (May 2023 Wedding)
We got married in May 2023 and we had an amazing experience with Valley View. From the start of the planning process through to the wedding day, Valley View’s planning staff, Wheelhouse catering, and everyone in between were there to keep us on track and well-organized. We were re-assigned to our planner Shannon about 3 months before our wedding date after our previous planner moved on from her position. We were a bit nervous about how switching to a new planner that close to our wedding would be, but we couldn’t have been more lucky to be paired with Shannon. She was constantly available for any questions we had or ideas we wanted to run by her, and we could tell she genuinely cared about every little detail of our day. It completely down-poured all afternoon and evening on our wedding day, which could have caused some major additional stress on us. However, Shannon and her coordinators Maggie & Christina, along with Alex from Wheelhouse and the bar manager Thaddeus made it so that we had an amazing day and didn’t notice any last minute adjustments they may have made. They remained incredibly positive and kept our spirits high which gave us confidence that the day would go smoothly. We got tons of positive feedback from our guests specifically about how great Shannon was and how friendly and talented the bar & catering staff were. We also had multiple guests tell us the food from Wheelhouse was the best they’d ever had at a wedding. We couldn’t recommend Valley View Farm more to anyone considering it for their wedding. -

THE place to get married
My husband and I got married at Valley View this past weekend on 5.28.23 and I cannot say enough great things about it! From the moment we booked the venue, our AMAZING wedding planner Dan, and the rest of the Valley View team were there to guide us every step of the way. No detail was overlooked, no matter how small, and on the day of the wedding, they did such an amazing job of keeping us present in the moment, and not letting our wedding day rush past in a blur. It is very obvious everyone working at Valley View not only enjoys their job, but they’re very good at it. We are so grateful we found and booked this amazing venue. Our wedding truly would not have been half of the day it was without Dan and the team at Valley View.
Our guests have not stopped raving about the amazing time they had, and I hope we will be lucky enough to attend many more weddings at the farm! We are really so thankful we found such a beautiful place to get married and that it gave us the chance to work with so many amazing people!
It was without a doubt the best day of our lives!!!
If there is one thing we could tell engaged couples to help them plan their perfect day, it would be to book this venue as fast as you can, you will truly be in the best hands.

Andrea Sent on 03/27/2023The Perfect Wedding Venue for a Non-Fussy Couple
Valley View Farm will always hold a very special place in my heart. I had the honor of getting married here on December 4th, 2022 and it was one of the best days of my life.
From the moment I saw VVF's website, I was in love. We had our ceremony in the gorgeous pavilion that overlooked the rolling hills of Williamsburg. The reception hall was warm and welcoming, with more than enough space to host our ~130 guests. It was a December wedding, but no one felt the cold between the blankets provided and the wood burning, heated barn.
But more than the grounds, it is the staff that made our wedding magical. From the moment we met our wedding planner, Alex, I knew we were in good hands. He was extremely organized, thoughtful and honest. Our day-of coordinators and planner, Shannon, were just absolutely incredible. Shannon had to jump in to cover the day-of and she took on the challenge with ease and expertise. The bar manager, Thaddeus, was creative and fun and made the BEST signature cocktails. And the catering? INCREDIBLE! Stephanie and Zofia were absolute rockstars and really made our foodie vision come to life.
Some fast facts about why you need to choose VVF for your next event:
1. It is beautiful, serene, unique and special
2. Your catering menu is custom - no picking off of a list of tired, outdated and overused dishes
3. They make their own cider, maple syrup and other ingredients to feature on your menu
4. Local sustainability and support is at the heart of what VVF does
5. Guests will be talking about the food for a long time after
6. The staff is considerate, professional and accommodating
That is enough rambling - I just really love VVF. I look forward to coming back for more events, the cider bar and to visit the ponies very soon! -

Nadia Sent on 03/15/2023The best ever!!!
Valley View was truly the best ever. Dan was our wedding planner and helped us from start to finish. Dan is kind, funny, and thoughtful - all qualities that I would want not only in my wedding planner but in a human that I would spend months and months alongside, thinking through one of the biggest days of my life. Dan is wonderfully detail-oriented, organized, and a seasoned pro, which positioned him perfectly to help newbs like us figure out all of the wedding things.
Valley View itself is a gorgeous venue that speaks for itself. In my view, it is a one-stop shop for the ultimate elevated-barn wedding. The space feels fancy enough for an event (think tall ceilings, exposed beams, gleaming wood floors, tasteful draping and lights...) but down-to-earth enough to feel cozy, homey... The food at Wheelhouse Catering (the in-house catering option at Valley View) was absolutely delicious. It was absolutely one of the best meals I've had and guests were raving.
All in all, I whole-heartedly recommend this venue. Our wedding was the perfect day because of all things Valley View. The space, the food, and of course, the support (Dan- he just rocks). I wish I could relive it all again minute for minute. -

The perfect venue
Valley View was the PERFECT venue for our August 2022 wedding. Valley View was the first venue that we toured and we booked it on the drive home. The location, outdoor pavilion, "getting ready areas" and reception space are absolutely beautiful. Dan, our wedding coordinator, made the big day seamless. From the moment we toured, Dan was extremely organized and calm while bringing laughter and fun to the planning process. The entire planning process was extremely personal, from the schedule of the big day to the personalized meal and drinks provided. Suzy and David, the owners, made us feel as though we were part of the family from the first time we met them. Every guest had nothing but positive things to say, raving about the venue, atmosphere, staff, food and drinks. The day was absolutely perfect and everything we could've dreamed of and so much more. If you are considering booking Valley View for your wedding, book it as soon as possible and get ready for an incredible experience! -

Valley View Farm is THE premiere wedding venue in Western Massachusetts. My fiancé and I were sold the second we stepped on the property. Everywhere you look is breathtaking and all of the buildings are equally as perfect.
From booking a tour of the grounds to planning the wedding start to finish, our experience was amazing. Teri, our wedding planner, gave us numerous suggestions, guides and information on local vendors and overall wedding experiences! It was a pleasure to get married there and an honor to work with everyone who helped make our day perfect. Every member of our family, wedding party and guest list had resounding reviews about the exceptional service, atmosphere and experience.
Special shout-out to Wheelhouse Catering and their bar manager, Thad, for customizing everything for us. They have an amazing staff and the food and drinks are unmatched. If we could get married again 😉, we would book Valley View Farm instantly! -

From the moment we saw Valley View online we fell in love. We had instantly requested a tour and didn’t know how much more we would fall in love once the tour happened. We had to have this venue for our wedding, and we did not mind having to change our originally planned date to make it work with their availability!
From the initial planning meetings to the last-minute things, Alex our planner, has been tremendous. He helped us so much with planning the little details that you may not have thought of on your own, and he is also amazingly pleasant and brings a smile to your face every time! The online planner where you can work together is amazing and helped so much as we aren’t a short drive away from the venue. We saw our vision come to life and could not have been more pleased with the hospitality all the Valley View Farm staff has provided us and our family.
As you may noticed but the property itself is so beautiful you barely need to provide much décor! We also stayed onsite at one of the properties and it was amazing to wake up and experience the farm the morning of and morning after. Everything you needed was provided and so many amenities were available to make it feel just like home.
We seriously did not want our wedding weekend to end. We will be back to visit for many years and cannot wait to join any farm dinners or muse cider bar events! If you want your wedding to be above and beyond what you could ever imagine, Valley View Farm is the choice. Thank you so much Alex, Suzy, David, Shannon, Thaddeus, Zofia, and the entire Valley View staff!
-Love, Rachel & Brandon Walsh + Luna – November 20th, 2022

Valley View Farm--They feel like Family!!!
Valley View Farm honestly made our dream a reality. Every single person we interacted with was so kind and thoughtful and they truly treated our family like their own family. We owe EVERYTHING to Dan, he made our day absolutely seamless and was a joy to work with. Dan knew all of the vendors we were working with and he took care of everything. We were not stressed about a single thing the day of the wedding. In the days leading up to the big day, we also had so much comfort in knowing that Dan was in charge. His support was truly unmatched. As a venue, the food was delicious (we got to make our own menu!), the views and space were spectacular and Western Mass is the best place in the world. -

Booking Valley View Farm for our November 6, 2022 wedding was the absolute BEST decision! I fell in love with VVF ages ago and when it was time for us to choose our wedding venue, it was truly the only one that checked all of our boxes. We booked VVF in August of 2020, so we had a solid two years of planning. We worked with Teri, who to put it simply, is an absolute rock star. She was responsive, kind, helpful, and patient--oh so patient--with us as our vision for the day evolved throughout our planning. That goes for the entire VVF team as well. Thaddeus and the bar staff were incredibly helpful and made some really tasty drinks. Their knowledge when it came to planning our bar package was so valuable and they answered every question we threw their way. The catering team at Wheelhouse was amazing as well. Dakota and Jake really know their stuff and helped us build a menu that was true to us and delicious. On the day of our wedding, VVF was pure perfection. Teri had helped us through our rehearsal and taken all of our decor the day before, so all we really had to do was show up. The VVF staff handled literally everything, and their attention to detail was incredible. (Someone whisked my husband's grandmother's seat cushion from the ceremony to her seat at the reception before she could even think to go back for it!) Their setup of our reception space was better than I ever could have imagined. They really thought of everything and needed so little direction! Maggie was another coordinator who helped run our day and she was a ray of sunshine. She and Teri kept me calm through some morning rain showers and worked with our photo and video teams to find the most opportune times and locations for shooting. We kept right in line with the schedule Teri had made for us and there really was a plan (and backup plan) for everything. By the end of the night, VVF's staff continued to keep everything running smoothly, making sure that all of our decor and remaining personal items made it back into our cars. All we had to do was hop on the bus and enjoy our after party, which was such a relief! Valley View Farm and its staff made our wedding day absolutely incredible. Every single guest said that the location was stunning and that the staff was on top of everything. I really can't put into words how much joy we felt the entire day and how much gratitude we have for Valley View and the staff. Teri was the MVP of the day, we literally couldn't have done it without her. The amount of work she did behind the scenes coordinating with our vendors and making plans with the staff took so much pressure off us and made everything so easy. She provided us with so much love and encouragement through the entire process and we feel so lucky to be able to call her our friend. We are honored to be a part of the Valley View Farm family and look forward to visiting again soon! xoxo -

Planning our wedding at Valley View Farm was a dream. We cannot speak more highly of the entire VVF team, especially our wonderful planner Teri!! Our wedding on 9/10/2022 was an incredible experience.
From the beginning, we knew we wanted to celebrate our wedding at the Farm. From the beautiful setting to the accommodating staff and planning model to the focus on local food, the entire experience aligned with our interests.
Upon booking our date, we began working with Teri to plan the day. She provided helpful insights and feedback about our decisions. She helped ease our fears and stresses for the nearly 2 years we planned.
During our wedding weekend, we stayed with our bridal party on-property, which was such a fun experience. We would highly recommend staying at the farm houses. The morning of the wedding, Teri and the team kept us on schedule while allowing for the day to flow comfortably. I still don't know if anything went "wrong" during the day because the team took care of EVERYTHING. The organization, set up, food, drinks and service were above and beyond our expectations. Not only did our guests have a great time, but we were truly able to enjoy every moment of the day.
I am so thankful to VVF for providing a memory that will last a lifetime. We cannot wait to return to the cider bar and farm dinners to reminisce about our perfect weekend. Thank you all for such a wonderful experience! -

Valley View Farm is pure magic!! Not only is the venue absolutely stunning, but the staff truly makes you feel like the only wedding on the calendar -- I'm not sure how they do it! Our wedding was 9/24/22 and Dan was our planner -- he is one of the most thoughtful, organized, attentive and deeply kind people we've ever met. He took our vision and sent it to the moon! No detail was spared, and above all else, he made our enjoyment and ease day-of the biggest priority. We didn't hire an outside wedding planner because we felt so confident in Dan and the team, which is rare of other venues. Thad & Emma [bar + catering managers] are also fantastic.. accommodating every dietary restriction and creating DELICIOUS menu options. We cannot say enough good things about our experience at VVF!! ps. 12/10 recommend the Baldwin Loft for getting ready!! -

Valley View Farm was the best decision my husband and I made when planning our wedding! We got married in September 2022 and from our first tour, we were blown away with the venue and the people. In the words of one of my bridesmaids, our wedding planner Dan "...should win awards." He and his team made our day better than we could have imagined. Also, highly recommend the new Baldwin Loft for getting ready the morning of the wedding. It was gorgeous and the perfect way to start the day. -

Best wedding decision we made.
Words cannot express how thankful we are that we chose Valley View Farm as our wedding venue. The moment we saw it online my husband and I knew it was the right fit for us, but our first visit really sealed the deal. The farm is even more beautiful in person, but what really makes it stand out is the level of unbelievable service their staff provides. We had to postpone our wedding a year due to Covid and our wedding planner, Teri, couldn't have made the process easier for us; she contacted all our vendors for us and made an otherwise stressful situation a total breeze. And our wedding was SO worth the wait! Everything about the day was perfect: the seamless timeline of events, the awesome hang-out spaces for the bridal party, the all-star vendors they recommended, the bar service, the staff's responsiveness to every whim or need we had all day... I could go on and on. Our guests could not stop raving about the venue and the number one comment we heard all day was "How did you find this amazing place?!" If you're considering booking VVF for your wedding, know it's one of the best decisions you could possibly make and that you're guaranteed an outstanding experience. -

The best wedding venue and team!
My husband and I cannot say enough positive things about Valley View Farm. When we first stepped foot onto the property almost two years ago(!) we knew immediately that this was the perfect venue for our wedding - beautiful, romantic, quaint and elegant. A perfect setting for a celebration with friends and family. But what makes Valley View SO special isn't the venue at all - it's the people. Suzy and David (the owners) have pulled together an unbelievable team of kind, creative, thoughtful and PATIENT individuals who care so much about every single couple that walks through their doors. If there is one person who made our day perfect though, it was our wedding planner, Dan LaFlamme. I would have gone so far as to select a different wedding date altogether if it meant getting the chance to work with Dan. He was so kind and supportive throughout the entire wedding planning process and will always hold a special place in our hearts. So, if you have any doubts about Valley View, just know that you will be in the best hands if you choose this team! -

I read a review back when I was deciding on wedding venues, it went something like, if you are looking for a wedding venue look no further and decide on Valley View, you won't have any regrets.
& that's what we did!
Valley View Farm provides the most authentic, personal, and beautiful wedding day. Our guests could not stop complimenting every detail, to the horses, the grassy fields, the pavilion, the rustic charm of the barn, our tasty signature cocktails, and of course Dan.
Dan, our wedding planner, was the real MVP of the night. Everyone told us there would be bumps in our day, we would have to adjust, things happen... but not on July 10th. There was no flaw in sight, and we owe it all to Dan's precision and execution throughout the year and a half we worked with him.
Valley View Farm has the best set up for a wedding. Truly. The flow of the night from preceremony hanging at the Sugarhouse cider bar, to vows in the pavilion, cocktail hour on the patio, and dinner in the barn; it's the perfect amount of movement to allow guests to constantly have something to be impressed by.
Thank you Sue, David, & all the VVF staff for making July 10th the happiest of all of our days. You guys are incredible. -

Since setting eyes on Valley View Farm a few years back, I knew I’d want to have my one-day wedding there. Fast forward to February of 2020 and within a week of getting engaged, I was begging my now husband to go look at Valley View. Although he thought we should enjoy the excitement and wait a little to start planning our wedding, he agreed to go visit the farm. To say we were both blown away upon stepping foot on the property, would be an understatement. As we got back into the car, my husband turned to me and said, “we can’t look anywhere else – this is where we’re getting married”.
From start to finish, the team at Valley View, especially Dan, made our rollercoaster of an experience planning a wedding during a pandemic, seamless. As you can imagine with the uncertainty of everything, anxiety levels were high, but Dan was calm and collected the entire time – which I completely appreciated, as I was not (haha). An event planner myself, I was worried about all the day of details, but come wedding day, I didn’t have to worry about a thing and could fully enjoy the day – Dan took care of every single detail. I really cannot say enough about Dan; he was such a joy to work with and meeting him was one of our highlights of wedding planning.
Our day at Valley View in June was perfection – from Dan hand feeding me appetizers so I wouldn’t get anything on my dress, to Thaddeus’ amazing signature cocktails, to how beautiful the farm looked – everything was flawless. Two months later, my family, friends, husband and I still cannot get over how beautiful the day was, and how Dan and the Valley View team made our wedding day exactly how we pictured it. I highly recommend Valley View to anyone looking for the perfect wedding venue.

Valley View Farm - Jewish Wedding 6/20/2021
Wow. I don't even know where to begin to explain how incredible this venue is, from all the staff, to our wedding coordinator, bar manager, to the beauty of the farm. Our wedding was on 6.20.2021 and we were planning the wedding through COVID. Our wedding coordinator went above and beyond to have frequent conversations with me and my mom to discuss all the details of our wedding. Alex, our coordinator, provided honest advice, helped us think outside the box, and always reassured us that everything would be perfect. Our wedding was beyond perfect, thanks to Alex and his team. He worked with us to bring our dream wedding vision to life, he worked with all our vendors to ensure they were in sync with the timeline of the day. Because of his attention to detail, the wedding ran flawlessly.
One major point to also state here is that our wedding was a full kosher wedding. We brought in a caterer from New York who had to "kosher" the kitchen, ensure all the utensils for the bar were kosher, as well as the fruit, syrup, alcohol, etc that was used at our wedding. Alex and his team were patient and worked hand in hand with our caterer to ensure the wedding would be perfect and that the caterer would be able to do his job seamlessly. Thank you to VVF for allowing us to have our dream wedding, but also accommodate our kosher guests and family.
I could not recommend this venue more, it is beyond perfect and I could not have asked for a more perfect wedding. Thank you to VVF for making all our dreams come true!! -

This review is long overdue – but I just wasn’t sure how to write down in words just how much everyone at Valley View Farm worked to make our wedding day as amazing and beautiful as it was. To write this review means its over and I am not sure I’m ready for that! I have to tell any brides/grooms looking at VVF for their wedding DO IT! Aside from the absolutely stunning setting that is Valley View their team is just as stunning. Teri is amazing an absolute gem of a person to work with. Planning a wedding during covid is hard but Teri and her team never made me feel like a burden with all the questions and concerns I was throwing at her. From our very first sit down meeting where Teri and Thad sat down with us and went over our entire day and cocktail menu. I did not have to stress about one thing when it came to planning this wedding – Teri sent me vendors that came highly recommended by VV and they were all a pleasure to work with! Thaddeus made the most amazing signature cocktails for our guest that they are still trying to recreate these! The vision I had in my head was nothing compared to what Teri and her assistant Shannon put together for us the day of. These two women never stopped moving from beginning to end! So I again I can’t stress this enough, if you are considering VVF just do it! The stress this amazing venue saved me and my family while planning our wedding is unimaginable. I was the most calm I have been on my wedding day and that is all due to Teri and her team. -

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Valley View and the staff. We started planning our wedding in July 2019 with plans for an October 2020 wedding. When COVID-19 threw a wrench into the mix, our event planner, Dan, made us feel more than confident that things would be taken care of and that we would figure it all out. Despite the unprecedented obstacles, we were able to have a small ceremony in October that was perfect, and had our reception in June 2021 which was just as special. Throughout the entire process, Dan was so kind and constantly in communication with us. VVF knows exactly what they’re doing and makes the planning process easy with lists and reminders, making sure all goes according to plan. Not only were we so pleased with the service and hospitality, but the farm itself is absolutely stunning. So many of our guests mentioned on more than one occasion how beautiful the venue was. If you’re on the fence about this venue, please take my word that you’ll be in the best hands and your wedding will be unforgettable! -

Valley View Farm was the most perfect venue for our wedding in August 2019 and I couldn’t imagine a better fit for us. We knew immediately after arriving that it was the right fit in terms of atmosphere and aesthetic – with the main barn having AC in the summer, indoor bathrooms, areas for bridal party to get ready, a pavilion for a covered ceremony, on-site parking, and the absolutely STUNNING setting… I can’t imagine anyone not falling in love with this venue if you’re looking for a barn/farm/modern-rustic location. Where the magic really is though, is with Valley View’s staff!! We were most impressed with how seamless the whole experience was… and we owe all of that to Dan and Sue! We were also blessed to be able to work with lots of other wonderful people/vendors as well and we loved that VVF gives people the flexibility to work with who they want – this made our experience extra special. I didn’t know much about wedding planning and hadn’t put much thought into the details until we booked our venue… so we feel very lucky that Dan was such a seasoned professional and thought of everything we didn’t! I’ve heard so many brides say they were SO stressed during the wedding planning process, and while there were things that are inevitably a lot to take in (finances, etc), Dan and Sue really made all our anxiety go away when it came to the day-of and coordinating things between vendors and even with family members who wanted to be involved. We feel very lucky to be able to look back on our wedding day with all amazing memories and no-stress – THANK YOU VALLEY VIEW!! -

Where do I even begin? If you are even thinking about getting married at Valley View, do it. It is worth every penny and more. Of course Valley View is incredibly beautiful, the landscape, the barns, the horses, everything, it is gorgeous. But what makes Valley View the best venue ever is the people. Every single person we interacted with from giving our deposit to the last song of our wedding night, they were all incredible. They go above and beyond to make your wedding day as smooth as can be. They treat you like you are their first and last wedding at the venue.
We had 175 guests at our December 28th wedding, we fit perfectly inside the venue. The Bar Staff went out of their way to make cocktail hour such a breeze. They had a drink in every guests hand within 5 minutes of the ceremony being done. (Shout out to Tad!) Also, having a kitchen onsite at the venue, allowed for every meal to be piping hot when they came out, which is so rare at a wedding. (Thank you to Latitude Catering!)
On a personal note, Teri & Dan -- Thank you for the unwavering support you gave to this sick bride on her wedding day. From going to get the Dayquil right before walking down the aisle, to having a pocket filled with cough drops, all those little details were beyond appreciated.
I just cannot say enough good things about Valley View -- I wish we could do it again next year! xox -

My husband and I got married here on 12/21 and it was everything we imagined it would be and more! The staff members were attentive from the time we went to look at the venue until we left the venue on our wedding night. I never had an email go unanswered for more than 24 hours in the entire year and a half I spent planning my wedding. Dan and Alex were always happy to answer my questions and help in the planning process, and I am incredibly grateful I got to work with them. Planning a wedding, especially from a distance like I did, can be incredibly stressful but Dan and Alex really helped to alleviate the pressure with their attention to detail and willingness to work with all my requests.

Our wedding is 10.30.20 so we have not yet gotten our big day at Valley View but I have zero concerns and stresses working with their team. Not only is the venue breathtaking but the team has been responsive, kind, and so incredibly helpful. One thing I've found throughout this wedding planning process is what we are expected to know a lot of things which, unless we've been married before, we'd have no idea about and some vendors treat you as if you should already have all the answers. Valley View has been the opposite. They've kindly answered all of our questions, provided guidance on next steps, etc. what questions we should be asking vendors and so much more.
The ultimate testament to this venue is when I was at the beach shortly after booking (sight unseen) and someone overheard me on the beach and ran over because they thought we may have been discussing valley view and they gushed and provided the highest praises for the venue and most importantly the team.
Will update post big day :) -

We knew this would be the location for our wedding before we even reached the top of the driveway! The beauty that you see in pictures is just as breathtaking in person, and if possible, even more incredible. This setting will leave your guests talking about your wedding for months after your big day! I began picturing specific wedding details as we toured the grounds and the excitement just took over. As the planning process began, we quickly realized how amazing the people behind the scenes truly are. This is one of the hidden gems of the farm! The hardworking owners, Sue and Dave, are incredibly welcoming and they make you feel like family from day one. So many people helped through the planning process leading up to the day. They had this innate ability to ease any stress and ultimately making the whole process fun. Our day of event coordinator Dan was the absolute BEST! I had heard of many people hiring a wedding coordinator, but this wasn’t anything I had every thought about doing. You absolutely do not need to at this venue. Leading up to the wedding, Dan made sure every detail was in order (including the weather) and he was the comforting voice I needed as the day neared. He has this remarkable ability to make you feel like you are the only couple in the world getting married on the farm, even though the calendar shows otherwise. The day of, he was absolutely everything I needed him to be and made sure our day unfolded exactly as we had envisioned it to. Valley View Farm will forever be imprinted on our hearts. As we welcome a baby girl next year, we cannot wait to introduce her to our Valley View Farm family and make the farm part of many of our family traditions. The farm and the people who make up this wonderful place are irreplaceable. I know making these decisions can be challenging but finalize this choice before someone else does! You will be filled with thankfulness as you go through the wedding planning process and all the days that follow your wedding day. -

If you're reading this review, it's fair to assume that you're looking for a venue to host your wedding. If Valley View Farm is on your list, believe me, your search is done.
I don't need to speak to how beautiful the farm itself is - it really does look just as spectacular in person as it does in the photos and videos that you see online. My wife and I got married in September but first toured the farm in the dead of winter and were STILL blown away by how amazing it is.
Something that you need to know is how truly awesome the staff here is. When we started wedding planning, that wasn't something that we really considered. We knew we wanted somewhere beautiful and convenient for our guests, but we didn't really consider who would be providing the experience for our guests.
Thank god we chose Valley View farm because their staff knocked it out of the park. The owners, Sue and David, are incredibly warm and welcoming - it felt like we were family when we first met. That sense of amicability translates into their staff, who in turn made us feel at ease and cared for, as a family would. Our event planner, Teri, did a fantastic job leading up to the wedding to make sure that everything was in order and then nailed it on the day of to make sure our vision for the wedding was executed to a T.
I'm so grateful to now be a part of the family of couples who have shared vows at this amazing venue. I'm looking forward to coming back to visit for years to come and reminisce on an outstanding day and say hello to the amazing staff that made it all possible.
So, long story short, do yourself a favor and book this venue before someone beats you to it - you won't regret it! -

My husband and I cannot say enough great things about Valley View Farm!! As soon as I saw it I knew this was where we would get married. The views are breathtaking; the pictures don’t do it justice! Suzy and David have created a stunning venue in a quiet corner of the world.
It provided the perfect indoor-outdoor vibe that we were hoping for. The Hemenway Barn was a stunning place to have our ceremony and we were happy to know we’d be covered rain or shine! The detail inside the Yellow Barn was beautiful & it provided plenty of room for dinner & dancing for 165 guests. Loved the mix of rustic feel with flowy fabrics and soft touches.
The wedding coordinators made the wedding planning process a breeze! They were so attentive to us throughout the day from the getting ready to the first look through the whole ceremony and reception. They were always there when we needed them! They also took special care of our parents and wedding party. Their attention to detail was impeccable. They did so much behind the scenes work and made it all go off without a hitch.
We had the most amazing day and highly recommend this venue!! -

What a perfect venue and staff!! Our experience with Valley View was seamless and stress-free from start to finish.
The venue itself is gorgeous. The fire pits on the patios add a nice touch for fall evenings, and the interior of the barn is absolutely beautiful! We had about 140 people at our wedding, with a band, and were able to fit everybody in the barn very easily without it being crowded at all. It really is the perfect setting for couples who want a rustic farm wedding. A plus is having two houses on property too. We stayed at the farmhouse and it was very convenient and comfy!!! People cannot stop talking about how beautiful Valley View is.
The staff - I could talk about Dan all day long! He is a rockstar. We primarily worked with him throughout the process and I don’t know what I would have done without him. He is so on top of everything, paying attention to every detail leading up to and including the day of the wedding. He is also so calm and nice. We had a lot of laughs with him too. Because of Dan we were able to fully relax and have fun. We had nothing to worry about and fully trusted Dan and the staff at VVF. Big kudos to everybody else that was part of the planning process as well - everybody was so pleasant and great to work with (Alex, Suzy, Thaddeus...everybody!!!!)

I’m not even sure where to begin!! There is just so much to say! Admittedly, I have put off writing this review a bit because I am just so floored by our experience that it’s hard for me to even put it into words (but I will try..) 😊
Andrew & I were having a really hard time finding a venue that crossed all of out t’s and dotted all of our i’s.. & then a friend of ours came across the VVF website & sent us the link.. we were instantly intrigued. We reached out and set a date and time to visit the venue the very next week.. As we pulled up the hill we were instantly put back on our heels by the well kept grounds and overall beauty of the barns and scenery… I think we made our decision before we even got out of the car! (Not even kidding!) Sue welcomed us with arms wide open and was truly the most warm and gracious person we had met in a long time. We were so beyond sold on having our wedding here, I remember crying as we pulled away because I couldn’t believe we had found something so perfect and fitting. We knew VVF would allow us to have the wedding of our dreams.. and that we did.
Andrew & I booked VVF in the fall of 2017 and didn’t get married until May 2019 so needless to say we had a fairly long engagement, but VVF staff were so beyond helpful and communicative every single step of the way (not just starting when were a couple months out.. I mean, they were this way from the second we booked them and ALL the way through our wedding day). We had the (absolute) pleasure of primarily working with Alex & Dan once we booked. They provided us with 6 out of 5 star service through and through. There are so many little things they did, and examples I can give, but there aren’t enough hours in the day for me to write it all out! But to just name a few – the Google Doc they provided us, the planning meetings they had with us, the EXTREMELY quick response time, the millions of check in points, going back and forth with all of our vendors.. they are truly THE MOST organized people, they know what they are doing to a T and it shines through in everything they do and how our wedding day turned out.
Fast forward to our wedding day; May 18th, 2019.. Dan was our Day of coordinator, and holy moly… I truly don’t have words. He was out of this world. He was there from start to finish working SO. HARD. ALL. DAY. LONG. to make sure our day was perfect every single second. When I say that I have always envisioned having a picture perfect wedding… that was our day times 1000, and a huge reason is undoubtedly because of Dan’s devotion to making sure that everything was just perfect. He was our right hand man, he was so, so beyond helpful. My bridesmaids always joke that Dan made them feel like royalty all day long.. it’s been almost a month, and my parents and grandparents are still talking about Dan and how he just simply killed it. So hands on, so accommodating in every way, so beyond professional. I don’t know if I’ll ever get over it.
While Alex wasn’t our day of coordinator, I do want to mention that he was there that day and so much of my vision came to life because of him. When I walked into the Yellow barn and saw all of the small and big details put together and brought to life, he was behind so much of that. He improvised when there wasn’t enough table space for all the things I brought, and when the table cards were flying up from the wind.. and I’m sure 100 other things I don’t even know about.. He is amazing, and we are so lucky to have gotten to work so closely with him leading up to our wedding.
Sue, Dan, Alex and all of the VVF staff, you made our day perfect beyond imagination. We will be forever and ever indebted to your team for the incredible service you provided over the 18 months we got to work with you. It is truly unmatched in every way, and ‘Thank You’ will never be enough. We are so lucky..

Casey Sent on 02/10/2019Best Day of Our Lives Thanks to Valley View Farm
Valley View Farm was the first and only venue that we looked at for our wedding. The moment we arrived on site and entered the barn, we knew it was where we would say “I do.” I truly could not have been happier with VVF between the perfect setting for our winter wedding (with a snow storm to boot!) and the stellar team of people that all played such a large part in creating such a special and magical day.
We spent the weekend on site, staying in the stunning farm house, which allowed us all to get ready with ease and truly embrace our venue and everything it offered.
While the whole VVF crew is simply wonderful, Dan, Barton, and Sue were individuals that we have come to truly adore and cannot thank enough for their welcoming nature and for ensuring that our day went so smoothly. We never once felt an ounce of stress, as everything went off without a hitch throughout the entire course of the day.
Each and every one of our guests were in awe of the beauty that this venue provides. It was so special to be able to get married in the pavilion (with heaters arranged to keep our guests warm), and then to transport right next door into the barn for our reception. With snow falling down outside, our guests enjoyed a picturesque winter evening around the firepits, warming back up indoors under the fairy lights as they danced the night away.
I can say with complete certainty that there would not have been a better venue or team of people to have had for our wedding day. I am beyond thankful for the hard work, attention, care, and kindness that we received from everyone at Valley View Farm. It was the best day of our lives and I HIGHLY recommend considering this one-of-a-kind place for your special day. We truly love them!

Hanna Sent on 01/21/2019Wish we were guests at out own wedding!
We loved being at Valley View so much for our own wedding that we now recommend it to our friends and family just so we can be guests. We heard about Valley View from a family friend after we looked at, what seemed like, every venue in Western MA. We were in love immediately because it was so beautiful without a single decoration. The staff was in constant contact with us throughout the 1+ before the wedding. They accommodated all of our ideas or helped us to iron-out our vision to make things work. The big day went amazingly smooth. We'll be back to picnic on the grounds :) -

Summer wedding
We got married here in July 2018 and it was the perfect backdrop for our "rustic romantic" theme. When we got engaged we knew that we wanted an outdoor wedding at a location that could do both the ceremony and reception. Looking online led us to Valley View Farm and when we visited it was love at first sight. Suzy was a joy to work with every step of the way. We were able to fulfill every wedding wish that we wanted at this venue including (1) the firepits, (2) the love nest which was a beautiful spacious area for my wife and her bridesmaids, (3) the sugar shack for the groomsman and myself in a separate location, but still on the property. My parents were also able to rent out one of the houses on the property (there are two houses available to rent) and this allowed my mom's side of the family to all stay together. They provided wedding planners too and they were extremely knowledgeable we really felt like we were in the best hands possible to go through this major event of our lives. -

Megan Sent on 12/08/2018Absolutely stunning
This venue is beautiful, the moment you walk in and take it all in; it takes your breath away. The staff is so kind and helpful, they made me feel as if we could meet or email at any time to discuss things and handled everything once the day arrived. A special shout out to Dan and Galit they are incredibly organized. Dan also made sure my husband and I had everything we needed the entire day. This place made our dreams come true and made memories we will cherish forever. Our wedding day was so magical and I account a lot of that to the venue and staff here at valley view. -
Megan Sent on 08/25/2018Valley View was the perfect, picturesque location for our wedding. The staff were excellent, thorough and had attention to detail. They made sure we had everything we needed at all times and were very accommodating. It rained on our wedding day but it was still the perfect ceremony under the pavilion and the staff were great in making all necessary adjustments and provided everyone with umbrellas. We have heard from several people it was the best wedding they have been to. We can’t thank Valley View enough for a perfect wedding day!

Susan Sent on 10/20/2017Valley View Farm could not have been more perfect for our wedding. The team at VVF made sure everything was just as we had planned and they pulled it all off with a calm and pleasant presence. We were lucky enough that our dream of being married by the gorgeous hickory tree came true. But, we so appreciated that Suzy and Dave were tracking the radar and had a beautiful plan B at the ready if mother nature hadn't been so kind. Our guests were simply awed by the farm and we couldn't have imagined a better space to gather all of our loved ones together in one place. With the Lovenest for hair/makeup prep, the tree for our ceremony site, the sunflower patch and old truck for photos, the patio and covered pavilion for cocktails, the yellow barn for dinner and dancing, and the fire pits for late night mingling and S'mores -- we really couldn't dream up a more perfectly planned venue for our wedding. We know VVF will be THE place to get married in the Valley so count yourself among the lucky if you book with them.

Virginia Sent on 08/02/2017On July 29, 2017 I got to take everything that I love about Western Mass (to name a few: sunsets, smells, crickets, stars and smores by the fire, our favorite tacos from Mission Cantina…) all my ideas for the most beautiful, succulent-filled artsy shabby chic wedding I could muster and I got to marry the woman of my dreams all at Valley View Farm. Starting with the owners, Sue and David, they are warm and loving and when they say they want this to be the beginning of our relationship with the farm, I think they mean it! They were responsive, warm and kind and they have an awesome can-do attitude. The day-of crew was on it – they nailed it! They are both professional, sentimental and straight up know what they’re doing. All of our guests remarked that this wedding was the most beautiful and fun wedding they had EVER been to. The space is truly magical and the people special. I highly, highly recommend this venue for your wedding day.

Rachel Sent on 05/08/2025the best night ever!!!
Our wedding was everything we hoped for and more thanks to the work of the Valley View Team! We got married NYE 2024 and it was the most special night with family and friends, and the party truly never stopped. Shannon is an absolute rockstar and made all of our crazy requests come true. She was by our side for the entire planning process and made it as stress free as anyone can hope for. Thaddeus was the best mixologist - from custom cocktails, to the espresso martini tower and an amazing bar staff to keep the vibes high all night. Cassie and the catering team worked with us to create the most delicious menu that represented everything we love in a family meal together. Everyone at Valley View is incredibly kind, positive and flexible. I would recommend them and the venue to everyone! To all the staff at Valley View, we cannot thank you enough, we would come back every NYE if we could!! -
Katie Sent on 01/20/2018Our Wedding at Valley View Farm in September was a dream come true! The venue is absolutely breathtaking! We booked this venue before it was even completed which was risky, but the end results were above and beyond our expectations. There were some communication and organizational issues from time to time leading up to the wedding BUT keep in mind that we booked this when they were just starting out and before the venue was complete. They were still working out some kinks and getting into the swing of things. About a month before the wedding they provided a shared spreadsheet for us to fill out which I think would've helped these issues from the beginning. I believe they have everything (i.e. contracts, spreadsheets, informational documents) online now so in my opinion they've made great changes to help with the issues that we encountered. Our wedding day was absolutely perfect and the staff at VVF was there to ensure everything went just as we planned. We would HIGHLY recommend this venue, especially to anyone who is looking for a gorgeous place that you can DIY your dream wedding. You can let your imagination run wild and create your perfect day! It's been 4 months since our wedding and everyone still talks about how amazing it was and how much they loved the venue. Thank you Valley View Farm for such a memorable day!
