“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 recently had our wedding at The Barn at Black Walnut Farm, and it was extraordinary. From the moment we first toured the venue, we knew it was the perfect place for us. Jim and Sarah have poured so much heart and craftsmanship into restoring this historic barn, preserving its rustic charm while modernizing it in all the right places. 

The property itself is breathtaking, with thoughtfully designed spaces that make you feel completely immersed in nature. The rose garden and front yard provided great photo opportunities, not just for us but for all our guests.
 Our ceremony in the forest site was an absolute dream. The setting created a truly magical, intimate atmosphere. It was the most picturesque backdrop for such a meaningful moment, and we can’t imagine having said our vows anywhere else.
 The true gem of the property, however, is the historic house. Staying in this house was an unforgettable experience, and my family is already looking forward to returning for years to come.
 The Barn at Black Walnut Farm is more than just a venue—it’s an experience and a place where memories are made. Jim and Sarah are not just venue owners; they are passionate, thoughtful hosts who truly care about every couple’s special day. We feel so honored to have celebrated our wedding here and cannot recommend it highly enough.”

“We loved Blenheim Hill farm when we first saw it, which was under a foot of fresh snow, but when we returned for our wedding day (8/1/26) and saw everything in bloom we loved it even more. The place is beautiful, remote and relaxing. There are no sounds of traffic and the views are incredible. When guests starting arriving on Friday night everybody just kept asking us “where did you find this place??” Its truly beautiful! An idyllic place to get married. The Farmhouse, where we had close family stay for the weekend, is charming and comfortable. The kids loved playing with the goats, exploring and swimming in the lake. The adults relaxed and walked the property. The staff were helpful and fantastic the entire time. Leading up to the wedding, the venue had an online portal that organized lots of our wedding details which helped immensely with planning. The staff were very helpful with any questions we had. The food for the rehearsal dinner, wedding night, and brunch were all fantastic. They went above and beyond what most people expect when attending a wedding. Many people told us it was the best food they’ve had at a wedding. In fact, many people told us it was the best wedding they had ever been to! (We agree) A side note, we were worried about guests finding accommodations for the wedding, but everyone had a pretty easy time finding AirBNBs/local bed and breakfasts really close by. When we got engaged and started planning our wedding, we heard many people say your wedding is “just one day,” but it really is much more than that: it's the months of planning leading up to it and all the times you think back on it in the years to come too. We really enjoyed doing all the wedding planning with Blenheim's help and the wedding weekend was perfect. We will cherish the memories of our wedding for the rest of our lives. We’re sad that it's over, but if you want to invite us to your wedding so we can go back, we accept!”

“The duo at the barn made our wedding day truly special. From their fun, detailed, and easy communication style to the amazing value in being the least expensive we saw, they went above and beyond to create a unique and bespoke experience for us. They let us celebrate in their private home, which felt like a privilege, and made us feel so special in this one-of-a-kind space. The hands-on, personalized attention we received throughout the planning process and on our wedding day was unmatched. We couldn't have asked for a better venue to host our unforgettable day.”
