What a beautiful venue! The owners, Nicole and Chris, were lovely to work with and went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. Our event was a success in no small part thanks to the gorgeous venue and support from Nicole. Thank you for everything!
Response from vendor•Jan 21, 2026Thank you so much for your kind words! It truly means the world to us to hear that you had such a wonderful experience. We loved being part of your day, and we’re so glad the venue and support helped make your event a success. It was a pleasure working with you, and we’re incredibly grateful you chose our venue. Wishing you all the very best, and thank you again for trusting us with such an important event 🤍Amazing!
I will forever credit Nicole and Whispering Palms for saving our wedding plans. This is quite literally the perfect venue! Booking an all-inclusive wedding has been the most seamless process, and I’m actually enjoying wedding planning now. The barn and surrounding landscape is breathtaking, and if you’ll fall in love with their donkeys, who can be a part of the wedding as well. From the big things to the little details, this place and their vendors will do an exceptional job making sure your special day is extra special. Highly recommend!
Response from vendor•Jan 21, 2026Thank you so much for this incredibly kind and thoughtful review—it truly means more to us than we can express. Knowing that we were able to help save your wedding plans and make the process enjoyable again is exactly why we do what we do. It has been such a joy working with you, and we’re so grateful you trusted Whispering Palms with such an important chapter of your story. From the barn and landscape to our vendors (and of course the donkeys!), we’re thrilled everything has felt just right for you. Thank you for your heartfelt recommendation, and we can’t wait to celebrate your special day with you 🤍Wedding
I recently had the pleasure of helping a wonderful couple plan their wedding at Whispering Palms Barn and I can’t say enough great things about the experience. From the very beginning, the staff was welcoming, professional, and genuinely committed to making every detail perfect. The venue itself is absolutely stunning—pictures don’t do it justice. Whether you’re planning an intimate gathering or a larger celebration, the layout is flexible and the atmosphere is incredibly romantic. The natural light, beautiful grounds, and thoughtfully designed event spaces made it easy to envision the couple’s dream day coming to life. What really stood out was the team’s responsiveness and attention to detail. They were organized, accommodating, and always one step ahead. It gave both the couple and myself peace of mind throughout the planning process. If you’re looking for a venue that offers both beauty and professionalism, I highly recommend Whispering Palms Barn.
The perfect event location!
Whispering Palms Barn was the perfect choice for our event. From our very first interaction with the friendly and personable owner, we felt right at home. The venue itself is absolutely charming and has a cozy, classy ambiance that set the ideal tone for our event. She catered to our every need, ensuring everything ran smoothly so we could truly enjoy ourselves. Her attention to detail and warm hospitality made Whispering Palms Barn stand out, and we're so grateful to have celebrated our event there. Our pictures look amazing with the lighting, bamboo chairs, the heart shaped pond and two cute donkeys our guests gushed over. Anybody looking to get married or throw a large gathering should definitely visit this venue before going anywhere else!
