My husband and I were thrilled with our choice to have our wedding at the Victorian Vineyard Venue. Scott was extremely responsive throughout the planning process, quickly answering our endless stream of questions and requests with patience and care. The venue itself provided a beautiful, elegant backdrop for our special day that perfectly encapsulated our 'Garden of Eden' vision. The lush gardens and plentiful floral arrangements made for stunning photos and delighted our guests. Scott and his wife went above and beyond to ensure everyone was well taken care of.

We recently used Belle & Barn for a fall sports banquet. The venue was perfect. We used the small kitchen area to serve dinner to coaches and a dessert bar to the players. It was the perfect size for our needs. Carrie was so easy to work with and helped make our vision happen. And even though it was late fall, we were plenty warm. The inside decor is beautiful and we really didn’t have to add any of our own decorations because what is there was perfect. We look forward to using Belle & Barn again in the future!

We can’t recommend Gorges Beer Co as a venue highly enough. Travis and Kelli (especially Kelli!!!) were an absolute dream to work with. The whole team created a seamless experience for us on our big day, even pivoting last-minute to host us inside when it was much colder/wetter than anticipated (May in the gorge, am I right??). From tables/chairs to tablecloths, flatware, decorations, and CATERING, they took the guesswork (and work in general!) out of most of our planning experience. The food is also FIRE, y’all. However, the most thoughtful and wonderful part of our package was hands-down getting to brew our own beer served on our wedding day. That was an unforgettable experience that we’ll treasure. We feel like we lucked all the way out getting to have Gorges as our wedding venue in 2024, and I am thrilled for all couples who will make the best choice to get married there in the future!
