“As a wedding photographer, all I can say is WOW! I’ve photographed here many many times and I am always blown away by the views and also the wonderful staff. The space offers a wonderful getting ready spaces and multiple photo locations to use. A big thing to note is they also have a rain back up plan which is a MUST. The option to book on site cabins is also a game changer - this is great for locals but also a wonderful option for destination couples! The last thing I need to rave about is their FARM ANIMALS!! Having that as an option with B V is amazing. They make it very fun and it’s always a hit with the guests! 1000/10 would recommend anyone getting married here!”

“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.”

“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!!!”
