“Bluestem Farm & Events was the perfect choice for our wedding day. Kelly kept us in the loop throughout the entire planning process and coordinated seamlessly with all of our vendors, which took so much stress off our shoulders. She was genuinely nice and helpful whenever we had questions or needed guidance. The venue itself is absolutely breathtaking, with an open and cozy atmosphere that made our guests feel so comfortable and welcome. Kelly even helped us set up our decor to make sure everything looked exactly how we envisioned it. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and would recommend Bluestem to any couple looking for a beautiful farm venue.”

“The Riviera Ballroom was an excellent choice for our wedding venue. From the moment we first reached out, their communication was responsive, timely, and very well-managed. The space itself was absolutely beautiful - stately and elegant, providing the perfect setting for our intimate ceremony and dinner. Our guests raved about the intimate ceremony space and the lovely dinner area, which allowed for great conversation throughout the evening. As the bride, I wish there had been a private space for me to get ready and wait before the ceremony, as the guests were able to see me beforehand. Additionally, some of our guests mentioned that parking was a bit tricky. Overall though, the Riviera Ballroom exceeded our expectations and made our special day truly memorable.”
