Hannah and her team at Vanderwende Acres were wonderful, and absolutely everything my husband and I could have asked for in a vendor for our wedding!
I actually fell in love with Vanderwende Acres years before we got married. Brian and I got engaged in 2020 right before the pandemic and VA was the first venue we visited as a contender for our wedding location. I fell in love with the property immediately, and the staff were so personable and knowledgable. Unfortunately, we had to postpone our wedding for 3 years due to the pandemic and personal reasons. During that time, we mulled through several other options for our wedding, including going out of state and eloping, but I told Brian I wanted a second look at VA before we made a decision and I knew that very moment we came back that we were going to get married there!
The venue has absolutely everything you need, all in one location - beautiful and spacious groom and bridal suites, plenty of parking space, clean indoor bathrooms, a gorgeous ceremony space, reception pavilion with a good back-up plan for inclement weather, all your chairs, tables, and the venue is so beautiful itself you don't need a lot of decor to make it look amazing!
Hannah was very responsive through the whole wedding planning process, responded to my dozens of emails quickly and kindly, and was extremely knowledgable about the venue and preferred vendors. Not only that, but she was there to help with anything and everything we needed on wedding day, including placing decor, helping with timelines, and grabbing snacks or a drink for us if we needed it!
We would recommend Vanderwende Acres to absolutely anyone! -

Wow. There aren't enough words to describe how perfect our wedding day was. The venue was prepared, beautiful, and worked with all of our ideas. Hannah was an angel and was willing to help whenever needed, with whatever project we asked. Her communication from months out up to the last few days was always super quick and helpful! She always had a smile, and checked on all of the bridal party, parents, and bride and groom whenever in passing. She really made the day 10 times better! 100% recommend Vanderwendes and Hannah! -

Sarah and her team made my wedding planning painless. Her responsiveness and willingness to answer all questions at any given time makes the process even easier. The price is very reasonable for the stunning views and beauty of the venue. Would recommend to anyone! -

Thanks to Vanderwende Acres and their wonderful staff, we were able to achieve our dream wedding. Vanderwende was such a beautiful venue inside and out, it didn’t require many decorations on our part. Although they hold many weddings at their venue, Vanderwende makes you feel like you’re the one and only couple to be married there. -

Vanderwende Acres was an absolute dream venue for our wedding! From our very first tour to the final walkthrough, the entire experience was amazing. Hannah and Kyle were incredible to work with - so responsive, helpful, and genuinely kind every step of the way.
On the big day, they checked in with us regularly to make sure everything was going smoothly, and thanks to their support, the whole day felt seamless and stress-free.
We’re so thankful for everything they did to make our wedding perfect and would wholeheartedly recommend Vanderwende Acres to any couple looking for a gorgeous and well-run venue! -

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

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

Katherine Sent on 05/03/2023Amazing Venue
I got married at Vanderwende Acres on April 29th, 2023 and it couldn’t have been a more amazing experience. The day went absolutely perfect and every single vendor we hired did a fantastic job. The weather turned out to be amazing and so many of our guests kept telling us how beautiful the venue was. We had about 100 guests and there was ample space for everyone. There were many great locations for photos, both indoors and outdoors. Sarah, the venue director, was very communicative during the whole planning process and was a gem to work with. She answered all our questions and helped ensure everything went as planned. Our guests could not stop complimenting everything about our wedding and they all seemed to have a blast. I definitely recommend this venue to anyone looking. -

Every single person has said it was the best wedding/venue they’ve ever been to. Thank you to the entire Vanderwende Acres team for making this the wedding of our dreams. -
