“We got married here on 10/11/25 and it was nothing short of amazing! From the beginning, Caitlyn was always responsive and thoughtful. On our wedding day, they made sure things were setup so all we had to do was decorate. The family helped chauffeur our guests. They even brought out heaters for us when it got cold! 10/10, definitely would recommend.”

“The team at Sixty Acres, A Gathering Place were an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish. Their communication was fast, effective, and completely reliable throughout the entire wedding planning process. The quality of their work and overall value was HUGE - the venue was immaculately clean, incredibly comfortable, and absolutely GORGEOUS. Connie, Cowboy, Brittany, and the entire Sixty Acres crew made sure my wife and I never knew about a single thing that went wrong on our wedding day. In fact, the Sixty Acres team went above and beyond to make our entire wedding weekend the most beautiful and easy experience it could have possibly been. From signing the contract to pulling out of the venue, they exceeded our expectations at every turn. We are so grateful for their incredible service and beautiful venue that made our special day truly unforgettable.”

“There is so much I could say about this venue. Diane and her team are above and beyond amazing. There were so many details I personally overlooked that Diane had solved for me. She had some addressed and handled and I didn’t know until after the fact. I was so caught up in what I thought was important. I missed having a send the bride out que and I would have never known because she coordinated it in the drop of a dime. Her vibe is so laid-back and chill. She’s super communicative and has all her details in order. There were so many personal touches like our last name in places such as the photo frame and inside the honeymoon suite done up and beautiful clothes pins and burlap sign. Beyond the ease of scheduling and planning with Diane, holly moly, can we talk about the beauty of the venue. The white barn with ferns hanging between each beam. Muah, that is chef’s kiss. The doors leading to the isle and whiskey barrels for how you see fit. There were highland cows grazing in the field behind the altar, which were groomed the day prior so they were fluffy and their hair blew in the wind. There were several perfect locations for photos, including waterfall, old cabin, dirt road between the barns and the Mountain View’s of the property. We were graced with the presence of little Fred, a baby Highland cow who did so amazing. We had a lot of younger children on our guest list and little Fred was just chilling. Diane did such an amazing job, especially for the children that may not have been well attended around Fred. She handled it like a champ and that’s above and beyond in itself. I could go on and on. Honestly the more I see wedding pictures from this venue and all the different things they’ve done and added, I want to get married again. In this exact location! It was definitely the country wedding we dreamed of”
