When I called Atkinson’s Farm to plan a wedding in just seven weeks because my daughter’s fiancé was being deployed to Japan, I was overwhelmed and unsure if it could even be done. Eddie didn’t laugh or hesitate—he simply said, “Let’s make this happen.” From that moment on, he delivered. His guidance, checklists, and constant communication made an incredibly stressful situation feel possible and supported. Eddie’s team—Tara, Dougie, and Wendy—were just as amazing. Tara was more than a coordinator; she was compassionate, calming, and fully invested in making sure our family felt cared for. We truly could not have done this without her. Dougie worked behind the scenes like magic, efficiently setting up and tearing down with ease, and Wendy handled the bar flawlessly—even with our lively crowd. The property is beautiful, and having the wedding party stay on‑site the night before meant more than words can express. The lodge and cabin are stunning, the food was absolutely incredible (we received so many heartfelt compliments), and even with an impending ice and snowstorm, my daughter and son‑in‑law had the wedding of their dreams. If you’re looking for a venue that shows up for you—not just in perfect conditions, but when life is happening fast and emotions are high—Atkinson Farms is it. We will always be grateful. Highly recommend.

Just north of Greensboro, North Carolina, sits Oakhaven, nearly 1,400 rolling acres of countryside, anchored by a stately English manor with a history all its own. We'd love to add your story to it. Here's what we tell people who ask what makes this place different. You wake up here, walk out from the manor, and the view just doesn't quit, green pastures rolling on for as far as you can see, cattle grazing in the distance, your reception barn just below, and our oak tree standing at the bottom of the hill, older than anyone can say for certain, waiting for the two of you to say your vows beneath it. Ceremony, reception, getting-ready spaces, a place to stay the night. It's all here, on the same gorgeous property, so nobody has to rush off at the end of the evening. We built this place so every guest feels at home the moment they arrive, without losing an ounce of its polish. Come experience Oakhaven, and let's get you to "I do."

The venue itself is stunning with plenty of space for our ceremony, reception, and all the little details we wanted. What really stood out was how pleasant the entire staff was. Everyone we met greeted us with a smile and made us feel so welcome. We can't recommend Experience Oakhaven enough for couples looking for a venue with both an amazing space and a team that genuinely cares about making your day special!

The professionalism, communication, and knowledge of the owners are absolutely wonderful and they give amazing local recommendations for vendors (I found my live painter through them!). The venue itself is beautiful on its own (many of my wedding guests complimented the venue itself) and is a wonderful space to work in, both on the inside and out! I had a fairytale themed wedding that looked spectacular here. The decor room they offer saved us so much time and money and I was so amazed at what all they offered. Also because I know they are hard to find: they offer a wonderful GROOM suite as well as a bridal suite. We had so much fun here. Best venue by far!

Welcome to Solara Ridge—where wide-open skies, mountain views, and blooming fields set the stage for weddings that feel a little more magical and a lot less ordinary. Perched on 59 acres of rolling Virginia countryside, our glass house venue was built with one big idea: your wedding shouldn’t shut you off from the beauty around you. Instead, the mountains, trees, and sky become part of your day—from the “I do’s” all the way to the last dance. But Solara Ridge isn’t just a venue—it’s a working flower farm and tree nursery cared for by our family. That means the land is alive and changing with the seasons, giving your celebration an authentic, natural backdrop (and endless photo opportunities). Think sunsets over the ridges, dinner under twinkle lights, and laughter that carries across the fields. That’s Solara Ridge: a place where nature doesn’t just surround your wedding—it’s woven right into it.

Their communication was clear and helpful, answering all our questions without making us feel rushed. The venue itself is stunning—the brick walls, arched ceilings, and natural light created the perfect backdrop for our ceremony and reception. What impressed us most was how they handled every detail we requested, turning our vision into reality on the day of the wedding. Our guests couldn't stop talking about how elegant and beautiful the space was, and honestly, we felt the same way. We're so grateful to Sarah and Wendy for making our day truly memorable.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Sunnybrook Venue in Roanoke, Virginia. I live in Massachusetts, so aside from our initial visit to tour the venue, every single part of my wedding planning was done remotely over the phone, Zoom, and Google video calls. Despite that distance, everything came together more beautifully than I ever could have imagined, and so much of that credit goes to the incredible team at Sunnybrook. Emma Stanley, our wedding coordinator, was an absolute rockstar from start to finish. She was patient, organized, and truly listened to my vision while also helping me stay on budget. She made remote planning feel effortless and was always just a call or text away. On the wedding day itself, Emma was present for the entire event and kept everything running smoothly. She coordinated with all of our vendors, handled every little detail, and her team was moving flowers, tables, and chairs with total professionalism. I did about 90% of my own wedding planning as the groom and I truly believe the day would not have been nearly as beautiful without Emma guiding me through it. Sunnybrook also recently welcomed a new coordinator, Sarah, who worked alongside Emma on our wedding day and did a wonderful job as well. We also hosted our rehearsal dinner at Sunnybrook the night before the wedding and it was a fantastic way to kick off the weekend. The taco bar was a huge hit with our families and Payton was working the bar that evening and did a great job. The food was outstanding. Randy Scaggs, the owner and executive chef, is a true talent in the kitchen. We had 140 guests and I have not heard a single complaint about the food from anyone. The beef dish was a crowd favorite, I had the salmon which was fantastic, and my bride loved her chicken dish. We chose a plated meal as I am not a fan of buffets and I am so glad we did. When your guests are still talking about the food weeks later, you know you made the right choice. The open bar was equally impressive. Drinks were flowing all night and no one had to wait long. Sunnybrook has a wonderful selection and is very flexible about working with you to serve exactly what you want. And then there were the flowers! The F-L-O-W-E-R-S! The flower were honestly my favorite part of the entire day aside from my bride. I worked with Emma and Tammy Scaggs on my vision, which was 'colorful and vibrant.' I had specifically requested Allium flowers and they delivered in the most amazing way, sourcing Alliums that came all the way from Amsterdam. The florist on site, Grace Winters, was an absolute delight. She was so knowledgeable and passionate about the flowers, and when it started to rain she worked with me on the spot to adjust the setup and make everything look perfect. She was a 10 out of 10. If you are looking for a wedding venue with incredible food, a talented and caring team, and attention to every last detail, Sunnybrook is the place.
