“We had our wedding at The Noble House Inn Venue and were thrilled with our experience. Matt and Lynn have created a stunning newly renovated venue and take so much pride in ensuring couples have a perfect wedding day. They communicated with us regularly and promptly in the months leading up to our big day, answering all our questions. On the wedding day itself, everything was set up beautifully - the tent looked gorgeous and created the romantic atmosphere we envisioned. Matt and Lynn attended to so many little details to make our celebration special. We felt they went above and beyond to understand our vision and bring it to life seamlessly. We'd highly recommend The Noble House to any couple planning a wedding!”

“Emery Farm Stays was a pleasure to work with as a wedding planner. The couple I worked with was able to truly make the space their own, from customizing the lighting to designing a flow that felt unique to their day. The owner was on site throughout the process, helping with vendor deliveries and ensuring everything ran smoothly — from parking to sound and everything in between. The farm itself is a beautiful setting with dedicated spaces for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and dinner and dancing. I would highly recommend Emery Farm Stays to any couple searching for a flexible, well-run, and beautiful wedding venue.”
