So so so pleased with my experience at The Retreat!! Our wedding turned out better than we could have imagined thanks to the staff's hard work and attention to detail. We had a very specific vision for our wedding and they were communicative, accommodating, and went above and beyond to help us have our DREAM day!!!! We also stayed the night in the house and there was plenty of room for us and our whole bridal party and it made a perfect and stunning space for both bride and groom's sides to get ready. The house (and entire property) felt like home, exactly what we wanted and could not have asked for more!!!

The Lodge At River Valley Farm was an excellent choice for our wedding venue. From the start, the communication with their staff was efficient, quick and very helpful. Brooke, the person I was in contact with, was always so kind and accommodating. The venue itself was spacious and beautifully decorated, creating the perfect backdrop for our special day. Their staff checked on me multiple times to ensure everything was going smoothly, and we truly appreciated their attentive service. We loved the Lodge At River Valley Farm so much and are so grateful to have celebrated our wedding there.

Whispering Hearts Event Center was an amazing venue for our wedding. From the very first interaction, Lauren and her family were laid-back, helpful and incredibly friendly. They made everything feel so easy and anticipated needs that we didn't think of, and even provided us with a sweet customized gift that was completely unexpected. The property is absolutely beautiful, with lots of great spots outside for guests and photos, so we were able to keep the decor simple and let the natural setting shine. The venue is truly relatively affordable considering the size of the building (we had 130 guests and plenty of space without it feeling too empty), the scheduling (we had the venue from 9am to midnight!), and amenities (an amazing kitchen with plenty of fridge and oven space, ice on site, a bar with ample fridge space, plenty of parking, etc.). We couldn't be happier with our decision to have our special day at Whispering Hearts and would highly recommend them to any couple looking for an stress-free, beautiful wedding experience. We also utilized the on-site rental house and were SO happy with our decision!
