“WOW. Our wedding day was a dream and so much more because of the phenomenal Milton Ridge team. Absolutely every person at MR from the coordination team, photography team, catering, DJ, and beyond is so incredibly professional, caring, detail-oriented, and focused on making your day and you and your partner feel so truly special. We have a million compliments to give to this amazing staff. It felt like they were all celebrating with us! Meaghan and Moriana not only helped plan and coordinate our day beautifully, they were so excited for us all day and made sure we weren’t worried about anything, making sure to have everything ready for us, even strategically got our one guests safely an ambulance to the ER before the ceremony (and back before first dance!) and made sure every single moment of our day ran smoothly. Feldy and Mira made the best photographers we could have hoped for. They were adamant about getting us the shots we wanted and Mira was just priceless with her joy for the photos they were taking!! She and Feldy have us so excited to see our photos!!! Our DJ, Tyler was just wonderful, made our night with some great music and had our guests dancing all night long! One moment I will never forget is running to the office to get something an few hours before guests arrived and feeling caught up in my nerves, but then hearing the catering staff laughing with each other while preparing our food. It totally snapped me out of my nerves and brought me back to the moment, reminding me to enjoy it all. The food was insanely delicious by the way, so many compliments from guests too! Highly recommend the fajita buffet!! Hubby and I are still chowing down on the leftovers 2 days after our wedding! I also want to mention how happy it made us to see Moriana, Mira, and the girls and guys serving drinks dancing to the music, enjoying the night, while providing us with everything we could want and more!!! The ultimate professional wedding team is right here at Milton Ridge!! Can’t thank you all enough. We are so grateful we chose this venue, will be recommending it to all of our engaged friends, and will never stop talking about the day of our dreams that you all helped make possible.”

“It only took one visit for us to fall in love with Comus Farm. From the moment we arrived, we knew it was something special. It had snowed heavily earlier that week, so we weren't able to fully explore the property during our tour and only got to see the barn and farmhouse—but that was all it took. What truly sealed the deal, though, was Lauren and Kara. From our very first meeting, they made us feel so cared for and completely at ease. They go above and beyond to make the planning process as stress-free as possible. They always had a plan A, B, C—and probably D if needed! They were incredibly responsive, patient with my many questions and requests, and genuinely invested in making our day feel exactly the way we had envisioned. One of our favorite suggestions was having their pony with a flower basket hand out our wedding favors during cocktail hour. It was such a unique touch, and our guests still talk about it to this day, along with how beautiful the venue was. We also felt incredibly lucky to be the first couple to have the pony hand out favors—it made the experience even more special. We've been fortunate enough to experience Comus Farm in multiple seasons—a winter tour, summer save-the-date photos, and our spring wedding. Every visit has been beautiful, and the venue is truly stunning no matter the season, whether your ceremony is indoors or outdoors. Staying in the farmhouse was the perfect finishing touch. It's beautiful, thoughtfully equipped, and gave our families a wonderful place to gather before and after the wedding. Waking up the morning after on the same property where we had just celebrated one of the best days of our lives gave us one last chance to soak it all in—a memory we'll cherish forever. Lauren, Kara, and the entire Comus Farm team, thank you for giving us the wedding of our dreams. Your kindness, attention to detail, and genuine care made every step of the journey unforgettable. Comus Farm will always hold a special place in our hearts, and we cannot recommend it enough.”
