Senter Farms was so welcoming and helpful when we had our ceremony. The mountains surrounding the open fields are the perfect back drop for fall weddings. We even had our engagement photos done on the property and they looked amazing! If you’re looking for a quiet area with stunning views that can host small to large events this is the place to do it. Thanks for making our day less stressful and giving us lasting memories in a beautiful peaceful place!
