The owners have done a phenomenal job renovating this church. It’s the perfect space for hosting a variety of events. I created a custom floral mural in one of the rooms, and Natalie and Michael were wonderful to work for. They are attentive, considerate, honest, have an eye for design, and truly care about the space they curated for future attendees.

DECIDING ON THE VENUE: We recently got married at Mountain Brook Vineyards in June. We can’t say enough about how perfect everything was. It truly was the best venue. While we were deciding on a venue, Rebecca made time to give us a virtual tour of the venue because we lived in different states. After seeing how beautiful the venue was, how wonderful the staff was, and how accommodating Rebecca was, we decided to go with Mountain Brook Vineyards for our wedding. REHEARSAL DINNER: We decided to have our rehearsal dinner at Mountain Brook. The rehearsal dinner may be our favorite part of everything. It was truly magical being able to have our rehearsal dinner outside under the lights in a vineyard. Mountain Brook also allowed us to do a welcome celebration at the venue where we had drinks and s'mores for guests. THE WEDDING DAY: Our guests could not stop raving about how beautiful it was. It has so many gorgeous spots for pictures, and they turned out amazing. The ceremony location was perfect for an elegant ceremony. The vines in the background made our pictures look great. Mountain Brook provided shuttles for all our guests to and from the ceremony location, and provided our guests with wine prior to the ceremony. The reception center is about as perfect as it could be. Even with minimal decorating, the area was beautiful with the wine barrels on the wall. It is big enough to fit plenty of guests (we had approximately 120), but also small enough where it doesn't feel like there is too much empty space. STAFF: If you get married at Mountain Brook, you feel like you are part of the family right away. The staff are all wonderful. They are helpful and make you feel like you are not just another couple getting married but actually important. They even got on the dance floor to celebrate with us. Rebecca is one of the most amazing wedding coordinators there is. She is extremely helpful, offers up ideas, and was able to bring all of our ideas to life. She is one of the nicest and most fun people you could meet. She and the rest of the staff are very laid back and let you make your wedding day what you want. AFTER THE WEDDING: Rebecca let us clean up the day after which was amazing. The day after the wedding, Rebecca went above and beyond to look for something sentimental that I had lost during the wedding. She even dug through the trash to find it. We truly cannot say enough good things about Mountain Brook Vineyards and we would recommend everyone have their wedding there. We definitely feel like part of the family and will visit often.

We had 35 people and it was the perfect size even though 35 was the maximum number of guests. Overall, not a chance in a million years I would prefer any other venue.

The property is so beautiful! My wedding was April 11 so there wasn’t really any leaves on the trees yet but the view of the mountains they have is so great you don’t really need them. It was fun getting to stay for a four day weekend and enjoy time with everyone on more than just the wedding day! We were able to do the ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner and dancing all outside at this venue which was what was most important to me. We rented golf carts which was very useful because of how the property is split up by a hill.

We had our reception at Trailside this past Fall of 2023. The day of, everything went perfectly. We were given ample time to set up, freedom to move around in the space, and ability to utilize it as we saw fit. The venue usually has live music, but they booked an acoustic band, which set up in the main dining area of the brewery. Our reception was able to play its own music, from speakers we brought, and not feel impacted from the live music going on for the rest of the patrons. Our event did not co-mingle too much with the general public; however there was a couple people that drifted in and we politely asked them to leave. As stated above, our overall day of was all we could have wanted and more. The days leading up to our reception were very stressful due to renovations that weren't quite ready for our event. Since we were the first party in this space, we had to bare the growing pains, which Trailside tried to accommodate for as much as possible. I believe since we were the "test" party, this team will grow from the experience. All in all, our reception day was all we could have wanted and more, so when it came down to the wire, the team delivered.

Where to begin. I will start off saying the most important – venue owners Amy and Shane Clark are truly some of the kindest people you will meet. The Venue at Rose Springs Farm was only the second venue my fiance (now husband) and I toured, but after meeting them and seeing the stunning venue I instantly knew we HAD to book it. I could just tell from that first encounter the passion, love, and joy they had for creating amazing wedding days. I went from feeling completely stressed about the task of planning a wedding to feeling like, “if I have the Clarks by my side I can totally do this.” So almost immediately we booked our date for about a year out and we also booked Amy to be our day-of-coordinator. Other than saying “yes” when Greg asked me to marry him, this was the best decision I made! Amy truly went above and beyond as a day-of-coordinator for us, and we are forever grateful. From many, many phone calls with me, either talking me out of a panic over the timeline or just brainstorming “what if” scenarios, to meetings in person where she helped me and my mom pick out the perfect décor from the HUGE stock of included items and helped me plan how the day would go. (Seriously, the décor closet is the place dreams are made of.) One of the many things I hold close to my heart and will remember forever was when I asked Amy and Shane how Greg and I could have a traditional Jewish wedding chuppah to get married under. Should I buy something? Should my dad try and build something? I showed them photos of a chuppah and I was met with “Oh! We can totally figure that out for you – we got you.” And they really did. Shane was able to construct two of the wedding arches they had together and Amy used her magic skills to make it beautiful with fabric and flowers. This is a perfect example of how the Clarks are, this is how they responded to anything at all during the planning process – with a kind and loving “we got you.” And Greg and I truly felt that. When it came to the wedding day we had no doubt in our mind the day would flow smoothly, and it did. If there was a hiccup – we didn't know about it! Amy did her day-of-coordinator duties beautifully and Shane kept the entire venue and staff running smoothly. Still to this day we do not know how he and his team manage to set up and take down chairs and move tables around so stealthy and quickly! Little things about that day that stood out in my mind that any couple thinking of booking Rose Springs Farm should know – the beautiful and spacious bridal suite had the sweetest mimosa bar set up for me and my bridesmaids. Lining up for the processional went so smoothly I didn't even realize it was happening until I heard my entrance song being played – that is how non-stressed they made me feel. The (included!) tealights were all lit on the tables when we walked into the reception space, and it was so twinkly and magical. Greg and I got a picnic basket at the end of the evening with food from our buffet and dessert in it. This made me tear up it was so sweet and made us able to have a cozy evening in the next night and relive the whole day over a meal we didn't have to worry about! When it comes to weddings, Amy and Shane REALLY, TRULY know what they are doing. I will recommend this venue to anyone I know who is getting married. I am so happy they are a part of our story and helped to get our “forever” off to a wonderful start. THANK YOU!
