Communication with Danna was incredible from start to finish. She always responded quickly, answered all of our questions, and was so helpful throughout the entire planning process. The space itself is stunning—the wooded area with the lake backdrop was the perfect setting for our ceremony. One of the things that made our experience extra special was having our wedding party stay in the cabins for the entire weekend. Everything was set up and ready for our guests, and we were able to use all the kitchenware and amenities, which made hosting so easy. Having access to the entire property truly set Klondike Cabins apart, especially since so many venues don’t offer that—let alone at such a great price. We couldn’t be happier with our decision to celebrate at Klondike Cabins. The beauty of the grounds combined with the time spent surrounded by our closest friends and family made it all unforgettable.

Absolutely a bride and groom's dream come true of a venue. My groom and I toured this venue when it wasn't quite complete in construction yet and we just knew that was where we would get married. Blake, Dana, and Carly have poured their heart and soul into this venue so every couple can feel at home. The bridal loft is so unique and a wonderful place for the bride to decompress before her big day. The groom's quarters truly give him and his groomsmen an opportunity to relax and have fun before the big reveal. And the views from the outdoor patio and ceremony area is the perfect spot to celebrate and gave us the perfect spot for our Mountain themed wedding. Carly and Dana are extremely detail oriented and make sure that their couples and families have the BEST day. From decorations to transitions through out the day, the Whispering Ridge team is there with you every step of the way. I wouldn't recommend a better place for couples to experience and celebrate their love and their wedding.

Our experience at The FarmHouse Siloam was spectacular and stress free. Kelleigh, Dee, and the FHS team turned our dream, Pinterest wedding into reality! It doesn't matter what it is, if you have a vision, the FHS team will do their absolute best to make it happen, no questions asked! My wedding weekend started with a bridal party sleepover in the FarmHouse the night before the wedding with special treats provided by the venue, a delicious farm-to-table breakfast, and chair massages to relax before the big day festivities begin. It just gets better from there... While the wedding party is getting ready, the FHS team is turning the venue into your vision that they've planned with you for months, and rest assured that it will be perfect (so Mama's, you don't have to worry!). Everything that you've forgotten in the midst of wedding planning, Kelleigh or Dee has already thought about and got it covered! Not only is The FarmHouse Siloam the most perfect wedding venue in itself, but they connect you with the best vendors in the area... ones that they work with weekend after weekend, so your wedding day is smooth sailing. When it's time for the ceremony to start, you can trust that it will be organized and on time. Dee, the day of coordinator, has it down to a science, and plans out your timeline with you months ahead of time. The reception area is so unique, rustic, and filled with character. It is covered, so you don't have to worry about unpredictable weather, and an intimate space where you can enjoy time with your guests. The grounds are full of beautiful flowers, manicured lawns, and fun games including: corn hole, fire pit surrounded by swings, horseshoes, and life size jenga. I could go on and on about how perfect this place is... every bride deserves to have the experience that the FHS provides. Check this place out and book your wedding here. You won't regret it!!!

As a photographer, I’ve had the privilege of working at Paradise Family Farm for a while now, photographing multiple weddings and hosting mini sessions there, and I truly can’t say enough wonderful things about this venue. First and foremost, the owners are some of the kindest, most genuine people you’ll ever meet. They are incredibly easy to work with, organized, and always go above and beyond to make sure every detail is just right. Over the years, our professional relationship has grown into a friendship, and I honestly look forward to every opportunity I have to work with them. The property itself is absolutely stunning. From the beautifully restored barn to the picturesque outdoor ceremony space and beautiful mountains, every corner of Paradise Family Farm photographs like a dream. The scenery is full of charm, making it the perfect backdrop for weddings, engagement sessions, family photos, and seasonal minis. And then there are the Highland cows! They are such a unique and memorable part of the experience. Guests and clients absolutely love the opportunity to spend time with the smaller Highland cows (like Fast Freddy), and they add so much personality and fun to photo sessions. Paradise Family Farm is hands down one of my favorite vendors to work with. Not only do they provide an incredible experience for their couples and guests, but they also support other local businesses such as myself and many others. Their generosity, professionalism, and genuine care for the people they serve make them truly one of a kind. If you’re looking for a breathtaking wedding venue with amazing owners who will make you feel like family, I cannot recommend Paradise Family Farm enough. It is truly a hidden gem, and I feel so lucky to have been part of so many beautiful memories there. — Wendy Scott, Shew Ridge Photography

I cannot speak highly enough of Big R Orchards, Scott and Eric. The venue itself is gorgeous with so many little details that add to the beauty. In addition, there are several photo opportunities around the property. I do want to put a special emphasis on the amazing level of communication that everyone involved had with me leading up to and on the big day. They were perfect, thorough, and clear in their communication. The quality of their work and value was exceptional - the venue is spacious, well worth the money, and provided a beautiful base for us to add our personal touch to. They ensured everything was set up to my liking and checked on me numerous times throughout the day, even driving us around the property for many different photo areas.

It has taken me well over a week to write this review of my experience @Redbird Ridge Estate as I had to fully digest this experience of tranquility. I wasn’t even sure that I was ready for a getaway experience after my Husband & I had been the caregivers for my Sister,Dad,and Brother whom all died over the last four (4) years.But after reaching out to co-owner,Alisa Dwyer,and reading about the history of Redbird Ridge Estate,I saw this getaway for Valentine’s Day Weekend as a Blessing. Alisa & her husband,Daron, welcomed us to Redbird Ridge so very warmly as did the free-range chickens from the chicken coop,the pond,and the tranquility trail. Further observations of this beautiful property revealed the renovated farmhouse,cabin,wedding chapel & picture-perfect reception hall with extra large bridal & groomsmen suites.From Valentine’s Day Arrival 5-Course Dinner To Morning After Brunch,including farm-fresh eggs from the on-site chicken coop,deliciously & professionally prepared on-site by The Romantic Chef Himself!My Husband & I most definitely will be returning to The Redbird Estate!!!

The White Crow Wedding and Event Venue was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From the very first interaction, Kelli and Blake's communication was clear, consistent, and incredibly supportive throughout the entire planning process. The venue itself was immaculately clean, well-maintained, and beautifully set up for our special day. The arches they had available were stunning, and they worked closely with us to ensure we could follow all COVID-19 restrictions while still having a magical wedding. With having to reschedule due to lockdowns, Kelli and Blake went above and beyond to make our wedding day an amazing, safe experience for our family and friends.

We seriously could not have had a better wedding day with Overlook Barn. From personalized notes from the owners on our wedding day, to the fantastic team members (we’re talking about you Abby & Taylor!) everything was picture perfect. So much planning, stress, and heart went into our wedding and we couldn’t be more grateful for Katie, David, & the Overlook Barn team. They were so kind when Helene postponed our plans and let us keep our date for the following year. We recommend Overlook Barn for ANYONE planning any kind of celebration!
