“My husband and I booked Abella in November 2024 and got married in September 2026. For those two years of planning, we felt so close to the Abella team and loved visiting 4-5 times for our meetings along with the open houses to meet vendors, enjoy the space, and plan out logistics. The space itself is surreal with the greenery, tall ceilings, white fences, and chandeliers. It is clear that every detail was thought out with their expansive portal, FAQs, example sheets, and thinking through every scenario - you can just tell they are experienced and love what they do. Being a Type A, Hospitality Major in college- I had a lot of ideas, requests, and visions - and they made it all come to life without making me feel like a burden. The team was so supportive on wedding day (checking out the outdoor ceremony space to see if it was too rainy - it wasn't and we all cheered together, letting us know there was an Owl perched during our ceremony which they have never seen, helping to fix my bustle when I didn't know it needed it, and making the day go flawless) and they did it all behind the scenes. If I did ever email or text a question ahead of the day, they would respond very fast, like sometimes within 20 minutes fast. Following wedding day, we have had friends, family, and guests who have worked in the wedding industry tell us that this was genuinely the best wedding they have ever been to and that they don't say that to everyone. I attribute a lot of this to Abella. People absolutely loved riding the trolley to the ceremony site, getting drinks at the bar on the patio during cocktail hour and standing by the fires or playing champagne pong, taking photos in front of the draping in the barn, and dancing in the warm glow of the chandeliers and the candles on the tables. Going to school for Hospitality, I learned a lot about what makes a guest experience great - and Abella has it nailed down to a science. If you want a stress-free, beautiful day - look no further!”

The owners were a nice family who were incredibly helpful and responsive - we could email them anytime with questions and they always got back to us quickly.
