I can't recommend the Botanic Garden enough as a wedding venue. It was pricier than other venues we looked at but so worth it for the space and for the services you get. Obviously the space is beautiful but the staff was really amazing. They met with us to organize our timeline for the day and go over everything in advance, coordinated with our vendors, and basically made us feel totally at ease with how the wedding was going to go. Day-of the staff and Emily in particular was with us every step of the way, making sure things ran smoothly, getting us to the right place at the right time, and organizing everything. We also got driven around on a golf cart for our photos which meant we really got to use the Botanic Garden space and get some amazing pictures.

I got married at Rivercrest Farm in August and I cannot recommend it enough!! The beautiful barn and scenery, the people who work there, the animals - its all perfect! From my very first visit to the farm in June 2023 I have been wow'ed by how terrific the team is! Alex, Deanna and everyone they have working for them are SO kind, helpful, creative and just truly incredible. Once seeing the beautiful venue and meeting Alex/Deanna I quickly changed my ideal date so that I could get married at this spot and have their help with planning. They make it so easy with their planning guide including every vendor suggestion you could ever need and their decor closet is a life saver! Alex held a planning meeting with us where she walked us through every detail of the day and helped me remember small details I had missed so we avoided any issues day of. The day of the wedding I had a team of family/bridesmaids/groomsmen ready to help set up and they were not needed. Alex and her team handled everything for us and it made the day so stress free. Also - the cows and mini donkeys are a huge plus! The place is truly magical and I can't thank them enough for all they did for us.
