From the start of our day to the last light that went out, Pleasant Pastures Weddings and Events was the perfect location for us! They had so many wonderful extras and everything was included in their package price. So many other places want to add everything on, but so much was included in our day making our wedding planning so much easier. The property is stunning with so many gardens, ponds, beautiful grass pastures, animals in the background, the giant old oak tree was definitely the center point and made a beautiful statement. The tent was perfect for our warm day with the breeze flowing through. The pine harvest tables were gorgeous! We were able to use some of their decorations which saved us even more money. The yard games were super fun for our guests. The grain bin bar was so much fun! The antique horse carriage and Mahagony tree swing made for stunning pictures. The Jennings family and staff were so kind and helpful every step of the way. They even let us bring our dog on the property (on leash of course) and we were able to bring our campers to stay a couple nights. The campfire was an added fun bonus for the wedding party. So many wonderful, fun, down to earth features. You will definitely feel like you are home on their property! This was the perfect location for us and we were shocked at how much was provided for us in the price. So many personal details!

The Braham Event Center was the perfect venue for our wedding. The communication with the staff leading up to the big day was fast, attentive, and respectful. They were able to accommodate some last minute changes we needed, which helped make our special day run smoothly. The banquet hall itself is absolutely beautiful - it's large and spacious with a blank canvas so you can bring your own decor in any style or color to make the venue unique. For the quality and beauty of the venue, we felt it was very fairly priced. The staff the day-of were equally amazing and attentive. I would highly recommend the Braham Event Center to any couple looking for a beautiful and accommodating wedding venue with great staff.

Awarded Best of Zola
Been working weddings at the refuge for over 19 years. Hands down my favorite place to work with. The staff and food are as good as it get's. They will bend over backwords for you to make all your needs met. The place is beautiful like a ski lodge in Aspen with amazing place's for picture's and sunset. I have seen a bride change her mind 4 times before the ceremony on where to do it because of rain. The staff had all the chairs and wiped down and moved in under 13 minutes. Yes we moved 189 guest's 3 times in under 30 minutes because that is what the bride wanted on her day was outside. Sun came out and it rocked, and all we did was cut into 25 minutes of social hour. I could tell you stories for days and not one of them are bad. Joe, Krista and Lisa and the rest of the staff work very hard to make your wedding day everything you dreamed of. LUKE

Rolling Ridge was everything we wanted in a venue! When we first saw the venue we knew it was perfect for our day because there are many wonderful options to have your ceremony, dinner and dance. We knew no matter what that if Option A (having ceremony/dance outside) didn't work out due to weather, then we were perfectly fine with Option B which would be moving everything in doors because everywhere has great ambiance which put us at ease during the planning months. From day one they were so accommodating and truly let your visions come to life. They also were so organized and provided the best planning tools so you felt like you were always on track and they helped you think of all the little details it takes to hosting a wedding. I never felt stressed or overwhelmed when working with Rolling Ridge. All of our guests were blown away by the beauty of this venue and we can't recommend them enough to any future couples.
