Not only is the Cracker Factory a beautiful hidden gem, but every person on the team is amazingly considerate, kind, and helpful. Ashley, Brandon, and Amanda were a joy to work with from the initial tour to all email correspondence, the day of and even when picking up our decor the day after. We stumbled on the venue in a random Google search and decided to check it out while passing through after the holidays, and were blown away by the venue's layout, architecture, interior design, and features. It was everything we wanted and more. They provided us a very detailed list of recommended vendors covering everything from furniture rentals to catering, even hotels and airbnbs in the area. Their bar service packages were expertly tailored and they even had NA beer and wine which quite a few of our guests really appreciated. Brandon and Ashley were like extra coordinators during our tea ceremony, welcome party, and wedding day. They are extremely understanding of cultural ceremonies and were happy to boil water needed for our tea ceremony and set up the necessary seating and tables for it. Brandon was so attentive to us and our whole wedding party and family. We got so many compliments on his friendliness and kindness, as well as how beautiful and unique the venue is. Ashley was so quick to respond and answer any questions we had weeks and days leading up to our wedding. When we were visiting shops and places in the Geneva area a couple days leading up to the wedding, everyone in the community gave them such high praise, telling us we were in great hands, and they couldn't have been more right. Everyone at the cracker factory is professional, kind, communicative, and fun. They helped us have an incredibly fun and stress-free wedding. We couldn't recommend this space and this team enough.

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!

Hayloft on the Arch was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the moment we first contacted them, Alisha and the team provided clear, quick, respectful and knowledgeable communication that made the planning process super easy. The venue itself is beautifully lit, open, easily accessible, and spotlessly clean - it was the ideal backdrop for our special day. When we had some last-minute complications with our caterer, Alisha handled the situation very professionally and eased my nerves, ensuring everything went off without a hitch. This is a stunning venue with a wonderful family running it, and we didn't have to worry about a thing. Our wedding day was absolutely perfect, all thanks to the amazing team at Hayloft on the Arch.
