We recently held my in-laws 50th wedding anniversary here and I could not have hoped for it to turn out any better than it did.

They were also so personable and friendly and professional to all of our guests. It was such a wonderful evening and I could not have imagined having it anywhere else.

I needed to be in Carnation for a quick meet-up, and I decided to plan a day of activities visiting…read morethe area - Carnation Farms (and Remlinger Farms). Arriving at Carnation Farms, not knowing what exactly might be there, I was firstly surprised to see the classic "Carnation Farms" logo with the exact font type and the carnation flower on the cans of evaporated milk that I have seen my entire life. Wait a minute, is this THE "Carnation Farms"? Well, yes, but also a no, but also a yes. LOL. I ended up reading the historical signs and chatting with the cashier for a while (there were no other customers - zero). Carnation was indeed the dairy farm that made the now world-famous evaporated milk, created in 1899. The business grew and thrived so well that the community of Tolt was renamed to Carnation in 1917 although the name changed back and forth two more times before it stayed with Carnation. In downtown Carnation, many businesses are still named Tolt, including the Tolt River. In 1985, Nestle brought the Carnation company. In 2016, the original Stuart family purchased the name "Carnation Farms" back from Nestle. The name rights exclude diary, but they have animals and is now a venue, amongst other business ventures. We missed a local market that was on the previous day. Today, this sleepy business sells many locally made products and hosts community events such as the local market. Limited bundles of produce represented the 'farm' name poorly, if I am being honest. I asked the cashier which products in the store are actually from the current farm. She pointed to the freezer case. I chose a frozen curry goat soup from the case. It was passable, more soup than goat, i.e. not much meat. If you want to visit, check their calendar of events and go for a museum tour or one of their many events. The shop itself is less interesting.

My 8 year old generally enjoyed it but as noted, young children would struggle to sit through the feast. We will be back during summer to visit the village.

I truly felt like I travelled back in time. Things to know: Check their website for hours/events. We went on a Sunday to one of their summer village days which take place from 12pm - 5pm. Bring cash!! They only take cash or check, this also applies to their dining establishment Bors Hede. Interact and ask questions! It's a living history museum and the villagers are both knowledgeable and so friendly! Village Summer Day entrance fee: $5 We came in a group of 4 around 3pm and wish we had slightly a bit more time because they closed the gift shop before we were able to visit it! :( That's ok though. Don't forget to say hi to Mabel the sheep! So cute! We made reservations for 5:30pm after our Village Day but if you can just make it at 5pm it's better because you won't have to awkwardly wait in the closed village waiting for your turn to be called. Overall, we really enjoyed our experience here! Sir Rodger was so friendly and such an adorable soul! He was the one to welcome us, host us at Bors hede and he also manages the phone calls for reservations.

Location and our server were lovely but dang if they didn't miss the mark on our food…read more SLOW to get our food and we were one of two tables in the whole place. The bacon on the sandwich was barely cooked and rubbery. I honestly questioned if they forgot to cook it. The salads. Oh man. We ordered two Italian chop chop salads with Balsalmic vinaigrette. First, they showed up drenched in a creamy yellowy dressing. Secondly, they were missing multiple items.... cucumber, mozzarella pearls, chickpeas. It said salami but I swear it was cubed ham. Regardless, we inquired and the kitchen sent out ramekins of cucumber and chickpeas and said they didn't have the items at the time of making our order. Say what?! But five minutes later you have them? You sent out unfinished salads? And still no cheese.

From the very beginning, Tristin was so helpful and accommodating, and made sure that we were involved in every step of the planning process. She was also very responsive to our questions and requests (always answering within 24 hours), and went above and beyond to make sure that our wedding was everything we wanted it to be. On the day of the wedding, the band was even better than we could have imagined. They had so much energy and enthusiasm, and the dance floor was full from 8:30-11pm. Our guests kept raving about the band and asking us how we found them. Their style of singing mashups felt like a DJ - we never once were bored of a song or felt a lull in the room. One of our guests is a professional musician and echoed how impressed he was - it was clear they took the time to practice the songs and flow ahead of time. We would highly recommend The Afterparty Band to anyone looking for a great wedding band. They are professional, talented, and they really know how to make a party!

From day one Tristin, worked with us and provided us with the smoothest planning process. Our wedding was a destination wedding and several accommodations had to be made, but Tristin made the process simple and easy. We wanted a band that would be interactive, engaging, and entertaining for a night to remember. This bands provides all that and more. They have several different costume changes, great sound and entertaining engagement throughout the night. They have choreographed songs and get into the crowd engaging with all the guests. They kept all of our guests on the dance floor all night begging for an encore as they ended. Our guests were even chanting "best band ever". To this day the band is something guests have highlighted from our wedding when they speak of memories from it. I cannot express how amazing they were to work with. Tristin makes sure to take any planning and stress completely off your plate. Overall, the band is truly incredible and will provide the best level of entertainment you will want from a live band at your wedding. They have a great song list and amazing mashups they perform. We are so incredibly happy we chose them for our special day and can't thank them enough for providing such incredible memories for us and our guests
