Beautiful Wedding Weekend
We got married at Golden Pine in April. What a beautiful land with such great outdoor and indoor spaces for the ceremony, dinner, and dancing. We originally planned to have our ceremony outdoors, but last minute the weather shifted, and we decided to move it inside. What could have felt like a stressful change ended up being one of the most magical decisions, we were completely in awe of how beautiful, intimate, and heart-opening the space felt indoors. And when the rain cleared, we still got to enjoy the breathtaking outdoor setting and sunset. Shmuley, the owner, is such a kind and genuine soul. Working with him was so easy and comfortable. He was supportive, flexible, and truly cared about making sure everything went smoothly for us. And it did! Our wedding day went better than we ever expected. The combination of Golden Pine with some really great vendors created something truly unforgettable. The land, the space, the people all came together like a dream. We will forever hold this place in our hearts and recommend it to anyone looking for a venue that radiates beauty, presence, and soul.

This is seriously magical land. Even without the multiple hot tubs, dome, cold plunge, and gorgeous venue. The way the land is cultivated, the flowers and trees, and the love that the custodians put into it.

An absolutely stunning place! The land is so inviting and gorgeous! The sunrise is filled with magic and dragonflies in the morning. Sometimes there's deer in the distance and little cottontails jumping around the property. The owner takes such delicate care of everything and everyone in the space. One of my favorite places to visit!
