Belle's Venue and Farms was THE perfect venue choice for our wedding. From the very beginning, Brittany was so helpful and supportive as she guided us through the planning process. Viewing the venue, asking questions, signing contracts and making payments was always a breeze! Brittany truly has a gift. Every time I visited the venue, she had her iPad ready to take detailed notes which she would share with me- (even if I changed my mind a couple times hehe...) She was so attentive to any questions I had and I could tell she really cares about making a couples wedding day visions come to life. Belle's is truly a budget friendly, all-in-one venue without sacrificing quality. There are a few ceremony options, including inside, to fit any couples preference. All of the available decor were all great quality and went so well with the aesthetic of the venue. The venue and property are STUNNING- (I wasn't going to add photos here because the website speaks for itself!!) Gorgeous farm tables and chairs, aesthetic lightning inside and out and you can't beat the location. It's truly a small-town farm oasis with endless spots for photos! We are so beyond grateful to Brittany and her team at Belle's Venue and Farms for making our special day everything we dreamed of and more. I cannot recommend enough!

Me & my husband chose The Union Exchange as our wedding venue and we couldn't have picked a better one! The staff are SO lovely (massive shoutout to Kelly & Kacie!) and they were so flexible with us and really put in the extra effort to make sure our day was perfect. Not only are the staff here excellent at their jobs, they are also such wonderful kindhearted people too. We felt INSTANTLY welcomed the first time we ever visited & that is ultimately what lead us to choosing this place to get married. My family stayed in the big AirBNB at the front of the venue and it's such a great space for larger parties! Very modern but with a rustic twist and has everything you need. Also the animals are ADORABLE! Myself and my husband stayed in one of the little cabins near the lake and we both loved it so much that we will be coming back every year to celebrate our anniversary! They are so cosy but very clean, we loved sitting on the chairs at the front and watching all the geese go by. Special shoutout to the candles here, the "Market Mornings" candle was a nice addition to our cabin and we even bought one to take home with us to remember this by. Even though we were here for our wedding, I know they do so many cool events which are perfect for all ages, we will definitely be back in future! I cannot recommend this beautiful place more 3

First, it’s beautiful. We did our ceremony at a Catholic church down the street and had our reception at the Rafters, but my favorite photos are by far the ones we took in front of the St Mark’s chapel- it’s so romantic! As a reception venue, it is very reasonably priced, and has everything you could need. We got ready in the adorable carriage house, and we also did my bridal shoot there a few weeks before the wedding- they turned out beautifully. Also, if you book with their caterer (The Flyin’ Lions), you get a discount AND support a good cause! But that’s not even the best part: their food is AMAZING. I am literally still dreaming about the salmon and mashed potatoes from my wedding day, and so many guests told me how much they loved the food. The taste testing was fun too, they have a ton of options! Also, Allison is the best coordinator EVER. You will love working with her, and every vendor I hired that had worked with her before told me the same thing! She is so personable and really gets to know you, and she will bend over backwards to help you with whatever you need. She is fantastic with communication; her responsiveness and helpfulness alone reduced my wedding planning stress. I also loved the preferred vendor list Allison provided; it made it a lot easier to narrow down our vendor choices! Allison and Debbie (from Flyin’ Lions) made our wedding and all the months leading up to it so special and wonderful; we cannot recommend them enough!
