E.O. Manees House was the perfect venue for our wedding! From the beginning, Hayden and the team were incredibly flexible, clear in their communication, and quick to respond to any questions we had. She helped us connect with high quality vendors that fit our vision. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful, with a stunning renovation that blends modern and fun touches throughout the many unique spaces. We are so happy with how everything turned out - the location in the Historic Argenta Arts District was incredibly convenient, and Hayden's helpfulness made the entire process a breeze. We couldn't have asked for a better wedding venue. Highly recommend E.O. Manees House!

Exuding an unassuming quiet strength. Unique. This picturesque venue is surrounded by dreamy views of the nearby mountains, foliage, and wildlife. The enchanting Dragonfly Farms provides an unbeatable backdrop, and it’s not uncommon for wild deer to be seen wandering through the fields and forest as vows are exchanged.

Pictures don't do the church, cottage, and property justice. You must see it to know how beautiful it is. It took my breath away when we pulled up for the wedding. So elegant but comfortable and feels like home. Benjamin and his mother are so wonderful! They guided the way for the most precious wedding we could have ever had. Knowledgeable, kind and gracious. The Chapel at Dragonfly Farms will exceed all your expectations! We are so in love with them.
