We told her what we were looking for and she nailed it. In addition to taking beautiful photos, she was a delight to work with. Our families and multiple members of the the bridal party have commented on how nice she was to be around on our wedding day! Other raves include: she got through the group pictures really quickly, she got us our photos before we got back from our honeymoon, she was very reasonably priced compared to the other photographers we looked at, and she was very flexible in terms of the hours we wanted here there taking pictures. We truly cannot say enough good things! From the groom - "Stop stressing over a photographer decision for your wedding and just book Kristy right now!"

I honestly don't understand the hype surrounding this venue. I considered it for an event, but very…read moreglad that I looked elsewhere. I attended a reception here, and that sealed the deal for me entirely. They really advertise for a much better experience than what is given in reality, including "on-Site and Transportation to and from the venue," which means that if equipment breaks down (and it did) that you are left waiting to pile onto a bus whenever they can get one to your guests. Walking into the space, all I could see was an awful slab floor. It looked as if they were still in renovation stage or something. Just awful. Your guests get one little coat rack that looks as if they bought it online, and it's in a back hallway as you make your way to the restrooms. It's a cramped space and I wonder why this place was so poorly built, but then I remembered what I call the 'benefactor factor,' and it became more and more clear. The only way that this place becomes "gorgeous," as it's been referred to in other posts, is if you spend a ton of money with a trained event professional (outside and separate cost, of course) to beautify it. Otherwise, you have a small room with a slab floor to work with. The only redeeming quality of the place is the outside deck.

We worked with Melissa Lottes who was very friendly, flexible and resourceful for our event. She had great recommendations for needed external vendors, was very prompt in responses to texts, emails and phone calls and just a great person to work with. Her staff the day of was very patient with us as some things changed last minute. The food was delicious and exactly what we ordered, their timing with our event was perfect and they were very gracious allowing us to store our guests' desserts until time to serve. For the staff, location, service, and food, I fully recommend them for a special event. Thank you, Melissa and to all of the behind-the-scenes staff that made our event truly memorable.

Rustic, boho chic vibes! Attended a friends wedding this past weekend. The ceremony was set next to…read morethe pond by the trees so it was away from the main space, which made it quiet and romantic. Cocktail hour was held outside the barn so there was a lot of space for guests to hang out, mingle and see the goats and mini donkey!! Dinner and dancing was held in the barn. Thankfully there was a slight breeze, because the barn itself was a little stuffy; fans would have made it perfect! Overall the space is ideal for your next gathering or smaller wedding. Lots of cute rustic touches without it seeming too casual. Chandeliers, barrel tables, plenty of seating to get away from the dancing if you want to catch up with other guests, and the staff was so sweet and helpful! Highly recommend!

Carol Rasch did a fantastic job of arranging things from the detailed ceremony and fine linens, down to the great selection of music and well appointed decor. She evidently has many years of experience in fine dining and event planning, and it show's! Well done Carol. Your church is the perfect venue.

So, my mothers wedding was today and I just got back from the reception and before that we were at…read morethis chapel for the ceremony. The woman that owned the chapel which of whom goes by the name of Carol Rash. The wedding started at 4 pm but my mom (the bride) was still getting ready, no big deal right? Well Carol (already upset at some of us for arriving a little late before the wedding was to begin) decided that now was the best time to concern the bride with the money she was to be paid for having the chapel being rented out. My mother obliged to write the check after she gets her dress on. Carol, dissatisfied, pressured the bride to write her the check right then and there and so my mother did. After that, Carol demanded my mother to write down her full name, and my mother did as she asked. A few minutes later, Carol came back to the bride demanding her pay to be in cash. This created a problem because obviously none of us have brought 500 dollars in cash with us to a wedding. So this caused the groom to rush to the ATM and withdraw 500 dollars. Once the money was brought to Carol, she went on as if nothing happened and let the wedding commence. A slight detail was left out of this story as well. When my Aunt arrived late Carol accused her of "not caring for the wedding at all" while having her finger in my Aunts face. This is not the whole story but I just hope to not bore who ever is reading this, but I highly advise to not rent out this chapel from a lady by the name of Carol Rash, the lady was very disrespectful and made my mother (the bride) cry at her own wedding. This did not ruin the day but did indeed make it stressful on our conjoining families. Thank you for taking your time in reading this review.
