I have not had my wedding here (YET! July 2014) but I wanted to write a review here more from my wedding venue shopping experience. Obviously, the first impression was a very positive one as we walked out back and took in the views of the countryside surrounding the back area. Cornfields and mountains, oh my! Also, a very nice, new wooden deck/floor covered by a tent that somehow doesn't look or feel wedding tent-like but more just like a big, open space.
We called ahead 10 minutes before we were going to be there to see if we could get a tour and talked to the owner, Mark, who was very friendly and inviting despite it being a Saturday morning. When we got there, Missy greeted my fiance and I, and gave us a friendly, informal, and informative, tour. I think we both knew within minutes, this was our place!
The inside of the house is also gorgeous as it nice balance between the old and the new. The original stone walls and fireplaces are there, as well as exposed ceiling beams. Possibly original wooden floors, but look nice and refinished. Appreciated the fact that they didn't decorate in the shabby-country-doiley (outdated) style that a lot of these older house/venues tend to use!
Lots of room for use all day (10 am til late!) on your wedding day. Can't wait to have all my bridesmaids there to hang out in the bridal suite with mimosas while we primp! Maybe hang out on the balcony overlooking the back yard, who knows! (There is also a "Man Cave" on the basement level, far away from the bridal suite, where the guys can hang with a bar, pinball machines, and a huge safe that they say may be turned into a refrig)
They have preferred caterers and such, but in the end you use who you want. Cha ching!
Happy to say NO to wedding factories and YES to this beautiful and professionally run spot! read more
