Kim, words cannot say how much we appreciated your quick response…read more She was a life saver when our original plan hit the snag. My husband and I were so thankful for Kim to make time for us on such short notice (1 month before the event). Kim is so professional, extremely well organized and very open to last minute changes. The ceremony is customized and really encourages you to find the perfect words, phrases, passages etc that express how you feel about each other. She is damn good.

I called the chapel at 6:00pm on Tuesday to see if we could get married there on Thursday. They had availability that morning so I spent the next day calling family, finding a dress, looking for flowers and all that goes with a wedding. In the midst of the whirlwind our guest list increased from 6 to 15 however I failed to notify the chapel. They never batted an eye. They were so very nice and accommodating to us. Karla was FANTASTIC, the Minister was WONDERFUL and the ceremony was absolutely PERFECT. It could not have gone better if I had actually planned it!

A rural farm wedding and event venue with rustic charm, big trees, lots of animals, and a solid…read morenumber of very photogenic spots. The outdoor wedding I attended made use of the paved patio outside the event center for both reception and cocktail hour. The sidewalk led down to the beautifully shaded and perfectly arranged wedding ceremony space. (Upside: stunning for outdoor photos, Downside: BYO Sound equipment - which can be disastrous) The paved patio space was versatile, easily arranged with high top tables, a bar at the end, two self-serve appetizers tables, and a reception table for guest sign in/well wishes. The couple arranged for a beautiful variety of meats and cheeses plus nicely sized cocktail shrimp, and the only thing I had a qualm with was too many shrimp, not enough people eating them - and I hate waste so I ate too many. The floral decor was elegant, simple and understated, with very good quality flowers, which you just don't get everywhere - these people cared! The event space itself is large, vaulted ceiling, smooth floor, very arrangeable for your event needs. Accommodated well over 150 people, with a robust full service bar in the back as well as a tea and coffee station. Excellent use of space, beautifully appointed tables, and attended by highly organized staff. Upsides: versatile spaces, elegant presentation, professional staff, quality food and decor, enchanting views and very photogenic. Plenty of parking on scattered rock (no mud, but also don't wear stilettos) Downsides: BYO Audio as far as I could tell, or the couple didn't pay for it and that was a Mistake. The main event hall didn't display any dancing lighting or colorful dj style experience for the end of the night, which sadly discouraged almost all dancing. And - worst - only one toilet for women, one toilet for men. Yes even if you have 150 people, just 2 whole toilets.

The venue is beautiful, but every other selling point they had turned out to be not as described…read more Amy, who runs the venue, was extremely rude to both me and my venders. I had multiple venders complain to me about her. I was originally told (before I signed a contract) that I could use the kitchen the night before the wedding to hold our bar and cocktail hour supplies, then just before the wedding I was told I no longer could. I was told we could take pictures in their stables (as pictured on their instagram), then day of told I could not do so. The grooms suite has a pool table in it that our groomsmen were excited to use, however upon arrival ALL of the pool sticks were broken. They contacted the venue and were basically told "oh well". The WiFi didn't work in the bridal suite so the tv was not functional. As we were leaving our venue after our wedding, staff was extremely rude to my husband and I. When I requested decorations for my ceremony from their "all inclusive" decorator, I was told no, and that the "venue is pretty enough" so I didn't need them. As well as many other small things that happened throughout our planning/wedding. Do not recommend

From the giant Oak tree outside to the back up option for sub optimal weather to the get ready rooms, cocktail hour space and the main ballroom. The main ballroom is spacious with enough room for a live band and stage. We set up our buffet line outside however would have had room inside. They have pre hung chandeliers and drapery which adds a beautiful touch. The get ready rooms are everything you could wish for! Tons of mirrors for the ladies, a large table to sit around, comfy chairs and a mini fridge. The men has a pool table, comfy sofas and a bar which make getting ready fun! Really couldn't have wished for anything better!

I had a blast being in my bestie's wedding this weekend and I 1000% understand why she picked this venue! Easy to get to, yet hidden and so peaceful. Property had so many lovely details from the swank bridal and groom suites, to the paver covered patio, to the numerous chandeliers. The acoustics were great for the live band that played, and everyone had tons of room to dance! I really loved the balance of nature vs amenities!

We've made several trips here, and we were finally able to stay in one of the bungalows in the newly opened area called The Hammock. The tiny houses are quaint and comfy, but have everything you need for a relaxing weekend away. We had breakfast both mornings in our bungalow with the farm fresh eggs they left in our kitchen's mini fridge, along with fresh sourdough and muffins from the kitchens pastry chef. We had lunch and dinner at the restaurant, as well as a less formal fish fry on Friday night at The Roost. Everything was incredible--I'll let the pictures speak for themselves.

Menu Seasonal-varies, we had the corn bread with pesto and broccoli and fresh butter. The shrimp and grits was yummy-a bit smoky spicy-great. The grilled trout was juicy and cooked perfectly-atop a bed of buttery rice and the best cooked asparagus ever! Tender all the way to the end. The kale salad was huge, fresh, loaded with toasted almonds, shredded cabbage, and quartered beets. Enough for 3-4. Okay, yes do get dessert. We saw someone else get the strawberry n had to have it-a white chocolate strawberry filled with strawberry mousse and an apricot jam middle. It came with a side of brownie covered with a chocolate creme and cookie sprinkle. Wow!! Well worth it!! The death by chocolate was served with pistachio crumbles. Strawberry was better.
