Prior to booking, the owner, Ren, was very accommodating to my smaller wedding plans and charged me a per hour rate to include (and I have in writing) 10 farm tables, 100 guest chairs, cake, gift, and sign-in tables, bridal suite and groom's quarters. I booked online but the invoice was for $50 more than I was quoted. I questioned it and never got an answer from the owner but I didn't argue it for all that I was getting. I scheduled two walkthroughs before the wedding and the above inclusion was also verbal from the owner at my first walkthrough. At the second walkthrough, I was met by Breanna who was so very nice. She was very helpful and said that she would be around the day of my wedding to help with any needs I may have. I let her know that we would need one tall cocktail table for the DJ equipment. Sarah, the Administrative Assistant, followed up with me in an email about my need and I just confirmed that I would need this one table. The week of the wedding came and they realized they didn't have me sign the contract for the wedding. I reviewed the contract and signed it. A smoking section was mentioned and I asked where it was located - Sarah responded in email that the smoking area was the gazebo. All was set for the wedding day. On the wedding day, I arrived at 2:30. My allotted time was 3-8 but I had verbal permission from the owner to arrive at 2:30 to begin setting up. We were not greeted by or have any staff present to help with a need we may have had as Breanna had told me at my second walkthrough. At 2:51, I arrived at the bridal suite where I heard others upstairs. Understanding I had the facility at 3:00, I announced my arrival and the hairstylist upstairs said she was doing bridal hair for a bridal portrait and asked me to give them 30 minutes. I proceeded to take our stuff upstairs with their permission. There was no urgency on their part and I never gained access to the bridal makeup counter or area until after 3:30 and my wedding was at 4:00. My mom had to change in the bathroom as did others. We used the small rectangle table to the right of the stairs. Our photos were not clean because of all the clutter with limited space sharing with another bride. We rushed to get ready in 15 minutes ... to include dressing myself, my mom and a jr. bridesmaid (hair included.) Unknowingly to me, my husband and his father entered the groom's quarters and found a huge mess in the facility. My husband had to spend time gathering all the trash in the room from the wedding the night before and pile it up against the wall before photos could be taken with his dad. As mentioned above, the DJ needed one tall table that was requested more than a week prior to the wedding. I emailed Sarah at 3:14 the day of the wedding requesting this table. It showed up minutes before the wedding started and the DJ had already found something upstairs to accommodate the immediate need. After the wedding, the family proceeded to the gazebo to have photos taken where we had to clean up cigars and beer cans sitting on the bench. At 6:30, a guy came to empty trash cans. I mentioned the gazebo to him because I didn't want to be charged for someone else's trash, and he informed me there was a large wedding the night before. This guy was not aware we had the venue till 8:00; however, we cleaned up our mess and were gone by 7:30. On Monday, November 8, I emailed Sarah and Ren regarding the above concerns. To summarize Sarah's email response, it was all a miscommunication and I only had access to the barn, 10 tables and 100 chairs. She says the bridal suite, groom's quarters and gazebo were not included in the hourly rental - but I have the emails that prove differently from the owner. When I asked Sarah about the smoking section at the time of signing the bridal contract, she provided the gazebo location to me and said nothing of it not being available for my hourly rental. In closing, I sent emails that supported my rental and what it included, a copy of the invoice that was $50 more than I was quoted and also the picture of the trash that had to be cleaned up by my husband. I asked Sarah and Ren for a refund of the extra $50 I paid without argument and have received no response back. I signed a full bridal contract that had nothing to do with my hourly rental. Thanks to friends and family, I had a very beautiful wedding. As I told Ren and Sarah I would do, I recommend this barn for a wedding but proceed with caution that whether verbal or written correspondence from them, the miscommunication is among them and they did not, in my situation, stand by their word in all areas. read more

The Forevermore Farm - Groom's quarters - Venues & Event Spaces Near Me - Moore, South Carolina

I had my wedding at the forevermore farm stables on April 15, 2023. Other than the beautiful venue itself, we had just about everything not go our way with this business. Overall, none of the staff at the venue communicated about our wedding day details. We met multiple times with Sarah, but up until the day of the wedding there were always question marks with everything. I ended up being extremely stressed and bothered on MY day. 1. There was no AC in the bridal suite while me and the girls were getting ready. which the maintence guy said "has been giving them issues". Shouldn't this be fixed for your customers, especially the bride? It got so hot that he recommended we MOVE to the barn bridal suite (the other venue in the property). So my bridesmaids and I loaded everything up to go DRIVE to the other suite so that we didn't completely melt our make up. None of the staff were concerned with this. Total inconvenience as I had to drive back to the original venue in my own car IN my wedding dress to get to the wedding...yikes. 2. We rented the honeymoon cabin for the night of the wedding. We spoke with Sarah about it being clean by the time we got there after the wedding. My bridesmaids and I stayed at the cabin Friday night so it needed to be cleaned for my husband and I.....She told us no problem and that it would be taken care of AND made "honeymoon like".....at 11 pm the night of the wedding my husband and I arrive to the cabin. It was NOT cleaned whatsoever and definitely not "honeymoon like". No clean sheets, no toilet paper, no clean towels,nothing romantic. I had to wash my own towels on my wedding night so we could shower. Miserable for a newly married couple. We did receive a refund for these nights, but on May 30th. We had to contact the farm multiple times and were spoken to very rudely by the owner, Ren. It was clearly an inconvenience for her. We were not impressed. 3.I do not recommend paying for a wedding director with forevermore. You are better off getting your own. The one we paid for did nothing but stress me out the day of my wedding. She let things get off schedule, constantly worried me with questions and concerns, let the DJ control everything, and was still confused about certain things we had gone over multiple times in wedding meetings. Not structured or organized at all. I was constantly bothered with issues that arose. 4.We also spoke with Sarah about using the farms "exit truck". It is an old pick up truck that we were told we could use to do a fake exit and that we could drive the truck. Turns out, Dylan (maintence guy) drove us during the exit? No one told us this? The night of, my mom and dad had to find Dylan (maintence guy) to get him to start the truck instead of him being ready for the exit. Dylan was no where to be found. It was insanely disorganized and took so long to begin that my photographer left. I never got photos of the exit. 5.There were also multiple decor items placed in wrong places. Prior to the wedding, we spoke with Sarah and Katelyn about where I wanted certain things. On the wedding day, I noticed the barrels I wanted in front of the barn were moved to an inside location? 6.We paid for the alcohol package with forevermore farms. On the wedding day, one of the beers we chose was not at the venue along with the other beers. I texted Sarah (on my day) because I noticed it was missing. She said Dylan would get it from the store and not to worry. Come to find out, it wasn't even the right beer. I made a sign that advertised it as a light beer and ended up the beer was the regular version, not the light. All in all, although my wedding was a dream and was truly about my husband and I getting married, it is disappointing that this venue let us down in all other areas. I would not recommend them unless you want lots of problems to arise. There is no communication between staff here. Nobody knows what's going on with your wedding. Heather (florals) was the most helpful for us with everything. It's unfortunate this happened...so think carefully before you book with them read more

Both my girls were married at this venue,Megan was married at the barn and Katie was married at the stables. Ren and her staff are top notch. The flowers were also done by the florist on site and they were absolutely stunning. I would give them more than 5 stars if that was possible. read more

Our son and 'new' daughter in law found The Barn at Forevermore about a year ago and the staff could not have been better. The venue was ready to find, provided plenty of parking and allowed the bride and groom to decorate and hold the service they wanted. read more

BUYER BEWARE! The owner will YELL at you if you bring up any issues after the day of the wedding. They will blame FORMER EMPLOYEES for over-promising (admitting they promised) and not fulfill the promise leaving you with no donuts on your donut wall and then tell you, you are to blame for not finding someone on the farm to complain to in the moment and then shame you after the event for even mentioning it. The owner YELLED at me and told me I should be ashamed of myself for evening bring it up and complaining. Garbage overflowing, no liner replaced and I was told there was no maintenance issue. I was told I was being petty. I was charged for maintenance, bartender and security separately and when there weren't 3 ppl doing those jobs, I was told .. it can be the same person. Our alcohol was seen being emptied down the drain, I was called a liar. I told the owner, you are not the sweet person I met during all the other pre-wedding sessions ..she was yelling, pointing, calling me petty, complainer, dishonest. She then told me I got a discounted package .. I was told Sunday weddings were half-price, I was unaware I would be hated for taking them up on their offer. I WOULD NOT recommend this venue EVER! Beware .. they will dismiss your issues and blame it on you! She could have just refunded the $150 for donut wall and called it a day. I am STUNNED at her unprofessional, uncaring, hostile, dismissive and unkind response. BE PREPARED ... record every conversation or it will be YOUR FAULT and Ren, the owner, will yell at you and blame it on you! find another venue .. it'll be less stress and way less depressing on your psyche as you recover! read more

I got married November 24th, 2018 at the stables and cannot stop bragging about it. I hired forevermore florals to take Care of my centerpieces and my bouquet, and boy did they deliver . I wanted a simple look because that barn is so beautiful it literally needs nothing else. I also went with their onsite director (Amy Hall) and she was amazing. My wedding went off with out a hitch. I Literally did nothing ,but get my hair and makeup done and just relax before I walked down the aisle. They made me that stress free and let's be honest, every bride needs that on their day. They had staff that kept the beer flowing and the reception clean and organized. I wish I could rate them higher than 5 stars. Brides this is a must if you want that rustic, barn wedding feel. You will not be disappointed. read more

My sorority function's busses were running late and the venue decided to kick us out to wait on the busses to come back to get the rest of the group instead of letting us wait inside. The staff was incredibly rude about it and could have just charged us extra instead of making everyone wait outside in the dark. They also could not adequately clean up a broken beer bottle that spilled resulting in several people's feet getting cut. I would not recommend this venue. read more
