“An Absolutely Breathtaking & dedicated venue. We truly feel blessed. ​Choosing Sunflower Hills in St. Croix Falls, Wisconsin, was the single best decision we made for our wedding, and the experience was truly magical. This is more than just a gorgeous venue—it's an exceptionally accommodating and supportive place run by the truly remarkable Emily. ​From the moment we booked, Emily made sure to help us every step along the way. She is not only incredibly kind and caring but also passionately committed to making sure your wedding is everything you've ever dreamed of. Her dedication is unparalleled, and she and her team ensured everything ran flawlessly smooth. The added bonus of her assistance with both set up and take down was a lifesaver and made the entire process stress-free. ​We highly recommend the all-weekend package. It allowed us to fully settle in and enjoy the entire celebration. The venue itself is one of the most beautiful places, providing a truly breathtaking backdrop for our wedding. The on-site cottage was spotless, very clean, and absolutely perfect for getting ready and staying in—it felt like a clean, peaceful retreat. Emily’s generosity extends further with full use of the garage decor, which saved us so much time and money on rentals. She also is a very talented florist. This place is truly a once in a lifetime Wedding venue opportunity. Lastly the venue over looks of course Sunflowers. They also have cows in the pasture, which was truly the icing on the cake for me as I love cows. They have been my favorite animal since I was very young. Emily knowing how much I expressed my love for cows she had them wait to release the cows to pasture to eat the field so the cows would be present for my wedding ceremony. We took the most incredible photos because of it. I felt like a Disney Princess honestly. It was the most perfect day of my entire life. ​We cannot recommend Emily and the Sunflower Hill venue enough. If you’re looking for a breathtaking setting combined with world-class support that turns your vision into reality, book Sunflower Hill immediately!”
