We absolutely loved our experience at HC! The venue is beautiful, intimate, and doesn’t need a lot of decor to spruce it up. It’s gorgeous! Don’t let the noise ordinance scare you; our party was lit!!! Everyone was up & dancing and the sound was the perfect volume. Our guests were blown away by how pretty and comfortable this venue is. Some called it a magical garden- it truly was! Epic Events (coordinators) were AWESOME. I highly recommend working with them. Kimberly, our coordinator, made our planning process and wedding day so chill & special for us. We really enjoyed our wedding day!!

If you're a couple in the market for an intimate, beautiful, well run, wedding venue look no further than booking Forgotten Barrel. Being a mini rustic oasis tucked in a quiet residential track, off the beaten path, this venue (and its wine selection) will surprise you in the best way! We just had our wedding 4/24/26 and from beginning to end we had the best experience. We had explored the details of around 50 venues for our 80 guest wedding and FB offered the absolute best atmosphere and overall inclusive package to follow our budget. Being you do have the option to a la carte the venue, I highly reccomend their inclusive package. Including catering options from Chef Joanne, Donut Hello dessert cart, month of coordination, a variety of optional decor to utilize, DJ Frank, bridal and groom suites and of course an unlimited wine/beer/seltzer/non alcoholic bev bar. The venue coordinator Alyssa, event coordinator Libby, DJ Frank, Paolo from donut hello, and the rest of the FB staff were just 5 stars in making our day a success. Our guests even 2 weeks later have not stopped raving of having the best time. They loved the food, the music, and the overall vibe of the venue. Some said the best wedding they've been to. So again, if youre looking to host your wedding or any event 100 guests or under please consider Forgotten Barrel. You will be happy you did!

I legitimately couldn’t speak highly enough about the team at Canopy Grove, we got married here June 22, 2024 and it was perfect. For the last year we’ve been planning and everything came together beautifully! I am so grateful to the team for being available to help, adjust anything I wanted to and just for being so attentive to us and the wedding altogether from the very beginning through to the end. Wedgewood made everything super simple, kept everything organized for me and was there every step of the way to guide and help us bring the vision we had for our wedding to fruition. Thank you to Taylor especially, but also to the entire team. We appreciate you all so much!
