“They made our wedding magical. The staff and venue are outstanding in every way. My wife and I were able to focus on enjoying our wedding because Ben, his mom, and the other staff were so detail oriented. Worth every penny. I would give 100 stars if it had the option, 5 is not enough. If you want an elegant, high quality, beautiful, low-stress wedding, The Chapel at Dragonfly Farms is what you’ve been waiting for. Pictures don’t do it justices go check out the venue in person and you’ll be sold.”

“We had a wonderful time planning and hosting our wedding reception with Terra Studios! The grounds are definitely something special. Our guests enjoyed being able to walk through the art trails and there are many spots in the forest or near the pond for pictures. The indoor event center was comfortable with a nice layout. One of the rooms was the perfect space for easy flow around our buffet and bar set up. The stage is small but fit the band easily, had the sound equipment needed, and was a nice central location. There was room for tables and for dancing in the main room, plus a lovely little outdoor area with seating nearby. The venue coordinator, Emma, is a joy to work with -- communicative, friendly, and very professional. We would recommend Terra studios for anyone looking for a unique venue with lots of home town whimsy and charm.”
