My wife and I were married at the Tack Shed on 8/31/25 and we couldn't have picked a better venue or friendlier venue owners to work with for our big day! From when we first toured the venue to when we left the venue after our ceremony, Christine and Derek did everything we could have asked for or expected to help us feel comfortable and make sure the day went smoothly. They were also quickly up front and transparent with pricing when we first showed interest in the venue, which was very appreciated! On our wedding day, there were some scattered showers and it was overcast, but Christine and Derek ensured everything went smoothly and that the weather ended up being only an afterthought. Before we sat the guests, Derek went out and hand wiped down all the chairs so they were dry for the ceremony, which was very kind. You can tell Christine and Derek both love their venue and take great care of it, while also providing great service and friendliness. We are so happy we made the choice to get married at the Tack Shed, and recommend it to any other couple who would like to get married in the most beautiful place in the US!
