“As a DJ for many weddings at Full Moon Resort, I am continually impressed by the team’s professionalism and genuine commitment to both couples and vendors. From the owners to the coordinators and support staff, everyone upholds exceptionally high standards while maintaining a warm, personable, and pleasantly laid-back approach that truly puts people at ease. Their communication is clear, friendly, and steady throughout the planning process, which gives couples real peace of mind. With a full team invested in every detail, they help couples navigate any unforeseen situations and coordinate seamlessly with my DJ team and all other vendors. Their multiple on-site locations accommodate weddings of all sizes, and their beautifully maintained grounds and high-quality facilities create an ideal backdrop for any celebration. Even better, they have reliable backups for everything, ensuring the day runs smoothly no matter what. As a DJ, I especially appreciate their teamwork and attention to detail—whether it’s thoughtfully crafting and adapting the timeline or being attentive to the physical environment and atmosphere. I highly recommend Full Moon Resort to any couple seeking a dedicated, well-organized, and truly exceptional wedding venue.”

“We cannot recommend Black Walnut Farm enough—it was the perfect place for the wedding of our dreams! From the breathtaking forest ceremony site that felt like stepping into a fairytale, to the warm and vibrant barn that created the ideal setting for our reception and dance party, to the sprawling wildflower gardens that surrounded our golden cocktail hour — every part of the venue is magical. The venue owners, Sarah and Jim, were incredible to work with—so flexible and supportive in helping us create a wedding that truly reflected us. They not only encouraged our own ideas but also suggested thoughtful details we wouldn’t have considered on our own, making our day even more special. It felt like a true collaboration and both my wife and I felt understood by them in this partnership. What really stood out is how effortlessly beautiful and well-equipped the venue is. We only added some simple table flowers, and that was it! It’s truly a “ready-to-go” venue that makes wedding planning so much easier while still looking stunning. We’re already looking forward to attending more events at Black Walnut Farm so we can keep the connection to this incredible place. It’s not just a venue—it’s a place that feels alive with love and celebration. If you’re considering it for your wedding, stop searching—you’ve found your perfect spot!”

“We recently had our wedding at Vanderbilt Lakeside. Henrietta was amazing to work with throughout the entire process. She was always so responsive and helpful. She was so organized and answered any question we had. The weekend itself was truly a dream wedding for us. The space was amazing to host all of our close friends for the weekend. The space is so detailed orientated and beautiful with so much thought put into it. The chef, Matt, is amazing and we got so many compliments on the food. Specially the steak- which was cooked perfectly. The drinks were delicious and easy to get for guests. Henrietta made sure my parents had food as well and went out of her way to make sure our families were taken care of. I truly can’t recommend Vanderbilt enough. We had a larger guest count for the space at 128 guests and did a cocktail style wedding. There was plenty of food and they nailed the set up of it. It was such a unique and fun experience!”
