I look forward to other events here in the future.

There were floral centerpieces on the table and a mimosa set up for an additional fee. Later they brought out the dessert tray and gave each of us a rose that was a nice touch. Everything was nicely organized and you have a 1 1/2 time limit. After your meal you can take a photo on the patio with the back drop or at the Photo Booth. There was also a live band playing. The place is very spacious and there's plenty of parking available. It was a great experience.

This year for my birthday my wife planned a weekend away for us. We dropped our kids off at their…read moregrandparents and then headed out. We wanted to get out of the city so headed 45 minutes west to the edges of St. Charles County. We stayed at an amazing AirBnB (Red Mule Ranch) and then decided to go to Cedar Lake Cellars. There are a ton of wineries in the St. Louis and Southern Illinois area. I've been to a lot of them, but had never been to Cedar Lake Cellars. It is a well known winery and event space just west of St. Louis. There are two main options for when you go. The Barrell Room is a large barn that has a mixture of beer, wine, and mixed drinks. This is the more casual of the two areas. There are large tables inside, and then an open patio area. The Barrell room doesn't have food itself, but just outside is a BBQ stand that also caters to patrons sitting outside. This is where my wife and I sat for about an hour or so before dinner. It had a lot of bachelor parties and larger groups. This area also has live music on the weekends. The second main place to eat and drink (skipping over the outdoor BBQ area) is the restaurant and tasting room. This is more of a formal dining room. The menu was modest but had a mixture of steaks, sandwiches, soups, and appetizers. The prices were very reasonable, and we very much enjoyed our food. The service was good, although maybe a bit overworked, and overall we had zero complaints. I got prime rib with two sides for around $35 which is a great deal. I was actually surprised at how reasonable the prices were. It just makes it that much easier to order a couple glasses of wine. Beyond the two main indoor/outdoor eating areas there are a number of other wedding venues on the property. There is also an stage and the venue hosts outdoor concerts. When we were there this aspect of the property wasn't being used. The overall property felt immense. It is a shame as it definitely felt like the winery could have a lot more people there than we saw, there were probably 75 tables/benches (or more) outside and only a handful had people. It could be that the heat was keeping people away, or just that wineries are declining in popularity from their peak a few years ago. Either way, we had a great time.

But…read morewhatever Rose of the Hill was doing wrong before, they must have fixed it all before we got to them because we were not only pleased with everything, we were BLOWN AWAY. And most importantly, so were our guests. We just had our wedding reception at Rose of the Hill on June 23, 2018, and could NOT be happier with our choice! First of all, Quentin Dunk is amazing to work with. He's extremely helpful throughout the entire planning process, but the best part is how great he is on the actually day of your wedding. Quentin checked in with my husband and I SO many times to make sure we were getting everything we needed, he took care of our family and friends incredibly, and if there was a job to be done, Quentin jumped right in there to do it. THE FOOD. Oh my goodness.... DE-LICIOUS. We decided to do a Family Style dinner and it was an absolute hit. Everyone commented on how quickly the food came out and how nice it was to be able to sit down while still getting to pick and choose what they wanted on their plate. And everyone said that the Penne with creamy tomato sausage and sage was their favorite =) We would have our reception there all over again. DEFINITELY recommend.

The owners were there the entire time and were friendly and accommodating with various requests. Barn venues for weddings are all the rage and this location was very impressive. First impressions when arriving... wow, clean, organized and impressive details everywhere. The wedding service was performed here. Valley Farms had a nice outdoor area set up overlooking pastures. If the weather was bad there was an option to bring it inside. The main barn for the reception looked to have been built for receptions. Big enough to accommodate probably over 200 guests with room for DJ and a large head table. Prior to the reception, there was an outdoor bar with seating everywhere. Here the wedding had appetizers and cash bar. Only ding was the option for liquor, beers and wines. (Barefoot wines...not exactly high quality). They had a few animals out and a tractor hay ride (without hay) to take the wedding party out for pictures. A nice area for a bonfire once the sun went down and temps hit 50's which was a lot of fun. I don't have the cost, but in the wedding reception market, it's competitive but compare apples to apples. In the end, Valley Farms was very impressive in the setting, atmosphere they created for an outdoor, barn feel and everything looked brand new and well taken care of. You can see the pride and attention to detail the owners have.

The location is BEAUTIFUL and the staff was amazing. From helping me get ready to helping with photos, they went above and beyond. Beautiful wagon ride to take photos around the lovely property after the ceremony and a bonfire to roast s'mores. Everyone loved cocktail hour on the patio and Sugarfire catering did not disappoint! The pricing was also amazing compared to everywhere else we looked. Bridal suit was beautiful, grooms room was perfect for the boys, and restrooms for guests were clean and stocked with a variety of supplies. Wonderful selection of drinks at the bar. Would pick Valley farms 1000 times over!
