A Venue Where Love Blooms: A Garden Wedding Dream!
My husband Chris and I were married at M&D Farm this weekend and are now soaking up the afterglow radiating from the happiest day of our lives. To exchange our vows in the lushest, most romantic and lovingly tended gardens, surrounded by our friends and family was a dream come true. We visited M&D Farm as a newly engaged couple in June 2023 and knew it would be a perfect fit from the start. From that point, Daniel and Mario worked with us every step of the way to bring our vision to life. We appreciated their attention to detail and clear communication, but most of all, we were delighted by their passion to celebrate the unique love of every couple they work with. Two years later (down to the day), all of our hard work and collaboration with Mario and Daniel paid off. It was truly a flawless weekend, from the ceremony rehearsal to the final squeeze goodbye at the end of our wedding night. Chris and I were able to truly LIVE our day, thanks to Mario and Daniel's kind, steady presence, working expertly in the background to ensure the perfect experience for us and our people. After 12 years together, Chris and I couldn't imagine a more meaningful place to make our commitments to forever. We will cherish our wedding at M&D Farm, each day, for the rest of our days.
Love, Lush Gardens, and Perfect Planning
MD Farm was more than we could have hoped for. The location and property are truly out of a fairytale—every garden, every corner feels like magic. From the moment we booked, Mario and Daniel were with us every step of the way. They clearly have this down to a science, yet somehow still made it feel entirely personal and heartfelt. The week before the wedding, the forecast looked dreary, and I found myself in tears on the phone with them. They comforted and reassured me with such kindness—telling me our day would be incredible no matter what. And they were absolutely right. On the day of, they showed the highest level of care and accommodation to every single one of our guests. They helped our wedding party feel at home and made sure the entire day ran smoothly—every last detail was looked after with such intention. We also rented the house on the property, which was immaculate and added such ease to the experience. Mario and Daniel are clearly made for each other—and they have such a gift for creating the wedding day that couples dream of. My new husband and I feel so lucky to have found them, and we recommend MD Farm with all our hearts to anyone seeking a stunning, high-quality outdoor wedding. It’s a dream—rain or shine—truly. Mil Gracias!!! :) 3
M&D Farm was the absolute best venue
Mario and Daniel have created an exceptional venue with M&D Farm. The property is beautifully maintained, with thoughtfully designed spaces including the barn, gardens, front courtyard, house, and surrounding grounds. Each area is visually impressive and carefully curated. Mario and Daniel were also excellent partners throughout the entire planning process. They offered valuable guidance and maintained a reassuring presence from start to finish. Their professionalism, responsiveness, and organization made working with them a genuinely positive experience. We are extremely pleased with how our wedding turned out and would highly recommend M&D Farm to anyone looking for a venue in the Hudson Valley area. (will edit to add photos once we get them back)
Absolute Perfection
Mario and Daniel have created something truly special with M&D Farm. The property is absolutely breathtaking. From the gardens, to the front courtyard, to the house, to the barn and the grounds, each space and corner is beautiful. When my husband and I were looking for a wedding venue, we wanted somewhere that stuck the balance between a chic and well designed space that also felt warm and inviting. M&D strikes this balance PERFECTLY. In addition to the beautiful space, Mario and Daniel were a joy to work with. They brought expertise and professionalism to the planning process. They're organized, responsive, and such a joy to work with. They provide a warm, kind, and calming energy throughout the process and the day of the wedding. We are so lucky to have been able to work with them both. We couldn't be more thrilled with how the wedding came together. If you're looking for a venue in the Hudson valley, look no further!! M&D Farm will truly make your wedding dreams come true.
