Laura has been a dream to work with. She is quick in her responses and has eased my worried-bride mind countless times. Covid struck the wedding business so hard but she has operated with grace throughout the whole process. The barn is gorgeous and we love that our wedding is in the town we met and went to college in. I would highly recommend Dutch Harvest Farm to anyone looking for an easy, professional, and picture perfect wedding experience.

Osmica is a dream! Allie and Kurt are gems and helped make our wedding so very special. From the beautiful property to the fun yard games, gorgeous renovated barn and hayloft to the lovely overnight we spent at the B&B, it was an occasion we'll never forget. The space is flexible to have a ceremony indoors or out, space for live music, ample dance floor real estate, and the loft can be set up in different configurations for whatever suits the event. Allie used flowers from the property to adorn the tables while Kurt managed catering deliveries, and they were amazing with set-up, tear-down, welcoming guests, and so much more. Allie communicated with us clearly about making sure we had the proper paperwork filed for having beer and wine on-site, and details for making things run smoothly on the day-of. We booked a night at the B&B which was so fabulous - they've renovated the farm house with such charm and character, many things being up-cycled - and breakfast we had the next morning (with ingredients from the farm!) was scrumptious. We highly recommend Osmica for your wedding, or any special event!

We cannot say enough good things about this venue! Danielle (our wedding coordinator) and her team exceeded our expectations at every turn. They were intuitive - anticipating our needs often before we even asked for something - and offering suggestions on things we would not have thought of before it was too late. When we realized we had forgotten something (like batteries for the electric candles), we didn’t even have to ask. They overheard us panicking and raced to get what we needed in time for the ceremony. The event space was gorgeous and they were able to pivot when the weather turned threatening and provide our daughter with something that was even better than she had initially envisioned. There was not a single thing that we would have changed. If you are looking for a wedding venue, this all-inclusive space is more cost-effective than you might imagine because you get all your needs met at one price. If you want something more than what they offer, you can either provide it yourself or they have other low-cost add-ons, but honestly, we added very few things because what they offered was superb. They worked hand in hand with our vendors (photographer, videographer, florist, DJ) in a seamless manner, so that we didn’t have to be the go-between all the time. Weddings can be stressful, but because of Danielle and her team, our event - even with unexpected challenges - was stress-free. It was the joyous, beautiful wedding that our daughter had always dreamed of. Thank you truly doesn’t cover it!

Stoney Creek Castle is an absolutely charming and breathtaking venue. The owners are so helpful and considerate. The setting is gorgeous with the creek in the back, and the whole setup is extremely unique. The venue provides a photobooth and a telephone to leave voice messages for the couple (all you need is to provide the SD card). My husband and I loved listening to the voice messages afterward. Additionally, the bathroom has more than enough room to accommodate a massive wedding gown, which is great. Could not be happier with the venue or the owners. They are so sweet and wholesome and provided fantastic service, before, during, and after our wedding.

When looking for a venue, we did not a barn. Then we stumbled upon the Heritage barn and met the Dunham family and instantly knew this is where we wanted to have our wedding. It truly was the best weekend of our lives and we had so much fun! Every single detail was exactly how we wanted it thanks to Allie and Ken and the rest of the crew. They worked with our vendors to make sure our day was perfect. If we could host another event there we totally would. We booked the venue for the entire weekend so we were able to stay on property Friday and Saturday night with all of our best friends. My husband and I had the honeymoon cottage for the night of our wedding and it was so cute! Best weekend ever.

Wolf Oak Acres made our wedding the absolute best it could’ve been! They were very responsive to any questions I had with decor, catering, makeup recommendations, bar service and beyond. When you plan with them, they will dig down deep into what your vision is for your wedding and help suggest how to make those ideas a relating. They even have a Something Borrowed closet which had just SO MUCH leftover decor from previous weddings that people didn’t want and even had their own decor available so because of this, we were able to save so much money on decorations. They had such a large variety available because that’s the worst part of preparing for a wedding. Buying all the decor yourself to use ONCE and then having to struggle on getting rid of it through garage sales and whatnot. Not here you don’t! We gave our coordinator at the venue some ideas and she ran with it and they even set up EVERYTHING for you! When I walked into the venue the day before the wedding, I was not expecting to start crying from how above and beyond the crew went with the decorations. It was absolutely gorgeous and exactly what I had wanted. They work with your caterers and DJ and photographer before, during, and after to make sure everything is going perfectly. They were there for me the entire weekend and the best best bonus they offered was lodging on site. They have 6 cabins and a HUGE absolutely gorgeous house for all your wedding party and guests to stay at for the weekend of the wedding. Plus, they’re close enough to Turning Stone so if need be, you can rent rooms out at any of the hotels there and it’s maybe a 15 drive. I will forever recommend this venue because they have an amazing crew who care about making sure you and your guests all have the best time ever!

Homestead Blessings was the perfect venue for our wedding weekend. From the moment we first met with Christianna, we were impressed by her calm, knowledgeable, and understanding communication style. The venue itself was beautiful, open, clean, and had a relaxed vibe that put us and our guests at ease. In the midst of the family chaos that can come with planning a wedding, Christianna was the calming presence we all needed. She kept everyone focused and took care of every detail we hadn't even thought of. We were able to spend the whole weekend making memories with our family and friends, as Homestead Blessings handled all the set up, clean up, and other logistical details that go into planning an epic event. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and are so grateful to Christianna and the Homestead Blessings team for helping make our wedding day truly special.
