We had our September wedding with Crooked River. It was absolutely beautiful! Staying in the loft in the barn helped to take off a lot of stress of rushing around on the wedding day. Susan and Jerry are wonderful people that want nothing more than to make sure you have the best wedding possible. My family absolutely loved them and the venue. We couldn’t have been happier with everything!
