“Everything about our experience with Venture was genuinely terrific from start to finish. A team of hard-working people who are willing to help with anything that they are able to. Communication was top-notch throughout the entire process, and the kindness exemplified by everyone who works there could not be overstated. The location is not only beautiful, but the positive energy one feels when walking around and staying on site is so powerful! I knew it was where I wanted to get married the moment I got out of the car on my first visit. Prior to visiting venture, we had looked at several other locations and had done a ton of online research. Many other venues were outrageously priced, even at a base cost, with basic amenities being additional costs. On top of being more expensive from the jump, the environments offered were not nearly as beautiful and fully realized as Venture. The newly built kitchen is stunning and so functional! All of the bathrooms with flushable toilets, electricity, and outlets made my less nature oriented guests feel very comfortable. Overall, everybody had a fantastic time, and every need my husband I had throughout this process was more than met. You will not regret spending time here at Venture Retreat Center, whether that’s for your wedding or just to book a stay for an escape from stressful life. Book with Venture, your heart will be happy! 3”

“We got married at Scribner Bend in June. This venue is gorgeous with tons of greenery and florals which cut down on decor costs for us. It is set up perfectly with a separate ceremony, cocktail hour and reception space. We knew immediately after touring that we would not find anything better! They provided a preferred vendor list which led me to an amazing photographer, florist and DJ who all added to the magic of the day. Paisanos catering was incredible as well. Guests could not stop talking about the pesto tortellini for days after! Their team communicated well and provided a lot of insight and help on the day of. Highly recommend Scribner Bend for your wedding!”
