The Barn of Nottingham was the most perfect wedding venue my husband and I could have chosen. Mallory was absolutely amazing and helped out so much throughout the process. Her and her team made the days leading up to and the day of the wedding so much easier. We chose to do the full weekend package and it was the best decision ever! We were able to treat the whole weekend as a little get away for my husband and I, along with our wedding parties. Having the venue the whole weekend made setting up decorations so much easier and less stressful. The venue, from the house, to outside, to inside the barn, was absolutely stunning. The rustic feel was exactly what we wanted on our wedding day. Being able to have our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception all at one location was amazing. Having a space for both my husband and his groomsmen, along with my bridesmaids and I to get ready in the day of was perfect. My husband and I could not have picked a better venue to get married at.

I can't say enough about the Osbornia Farm team! They were truly amazing! From the moment we booked with them until the night our wedding ended they were so thorough and organized with everything. Shauna and Amy helped make our wedding day run so smooth and planned every little detail for us. Not only did they plan the schedule and details, they took into consideration of everything we said. Amy went above and beyond with helping us set up the church ceremony and then running the rehearsal. Shauna went above and beyond with coordinating with all the vendors before hand and during the wedding. Together, they were both amazing making sure the reception went smoothly. When I became stressed over little things they assured me it would be fine. And it was :) I truly feel the day went so smoothly and perfect because of them. The whole Family is so sweet and I cannot recommend this venue enough. Thank you so much for making our dream wedding a reality. We had so much fun and wish we could do it again :). Thank you!

It’s hard to find the words to truly capture just how stunning Pine Ridge Farm is. The venue itself is absolutely breathtaking, but what makes it even more special is Kristin, her husband, and their entire team—they are nothing short of amazing!

Two of my bridesmaids are now dreaming of getting married at Pine Ridge, and even my mom joked that the venue and service made her want to get married all over again! Beyond the incredible venue, Kristin’s preferred vendors are phenomenal.

We booked a tour with Cold Saturday Farm on a whim, but holy cow am I glad that we did! We met with Brittany on a pretty dreary day in the winter, and even then I could see the beauty in the venue. It truly is a blank canvas that you can really make your own. Plus, the venue checked all the boxes that were super important to us: onsite getting ready spaces for both us, free onsite parking, guest tables and chairs included, and access to the venue all day. For the price, it was a great value. Brittany did end up leaving Cold Saturday, and we do wish that had been proactively communicated to us, but her replacement, Meredith, was fantastic, especially because she started the week before our wedding (I'm pretty sure we were her first wedding at the venue). But she was incredibly helpful and friendly--we actually had guests come up to us and tell us how awesome she was! The only other thing I wish we had known ahead of time was that the getting ready room the guys used didn't have any furniture. It was still being worked on during our tours, so we didn't actually see the room until the day of. So the room may have furniture at some point. Overall, we loved Cold Saturday Farm. It is truly a hidden gem (none of our vendors have ever worked there before but all of them said they loved it), so I really love that it was a pretty unique and beautiful place to have our wedding.
