“Tucker's Farmhouse was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the moment we first reached out to Beth & Stacee we knew it was the place we wanted to get married! They were true professionals - they were creative, organized, understanding, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire planning process. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful, with a charming, rustic aesthetic that made for the perfect gathering space for our special day. The team at Tucker's went above and beyond, from snapping photos of us and the wedding party, to holding my bouquet during photo moments, bustling my dress, and keeping everyone on schedule while still allowing for fun, spontaneous moments.

“We were very pleased with the professionalism of the sales and event planning team. The sales team went out of their way to accommodate our late request for a meeting. And the handoff to the event team was flawless. Our event coordinator was helpful when reviewing our options for food and drink selections and very responsive and flexible to our requests. Our experience with rooming requests and lists in other weddings (3) had not been great, but with this hotel and our event planner, everything was exactly correct and with all requests met. Our suite was the perfect size for entertaining all weekend. The food at the Welcome Party was beautifully displayed and delicious. The Duval room was the perfect size and the attending staff and bartender could not have done a better job. We also hosted a Farewell brunch and again the room size was perfect and the food was “best brunch food ever” as exclaimed by our guests. We would highly recommend this hotel !”
