We recently eloped at Pillow & Paddock, and it was the most magical experience we could have imagined. If you're dreaming of a romantic, intimate, and rustic celebration, this venue is an absolute gem. We held our ceremony in the backyard by the fence of the horse paddock. It was simply breathtaking, with the horses roaming and golden sunset providing the perfect backdrop. It felt incredibly personal and special. The team at Pillow & Paddock went above and beyond to ensure every detail was perfect. The flowers and cake were beautifully arranged, and the overall atmosphere was so warm and welcoming. We stayed in the Room with a View on the very private 3rd floor, which was luxurious and comfortable – a perfect retreat after our ceremony. Waking up to the beautiful farm views and delicious breakfast was such a treat! Pillow & Paddock offers a unique blend of rustic elegance and natural beauty, perfect for creating photos you'll treasure forever. It's a place where you can truly connect with each other and your surroundings, creating memories that will last a lifetime. We highly recommend it to any couple seeking an unforgettable and intimate elopement.

I don’t even know where to begin. Before the wedding day, Grace, Klara, and Tina went above and beyond on every single detail to make this day truly special. They were there every step of the way and responded so quickly. I know they were working with so many other weddings, but made me feel special like I was the only wedding they were focusing on. I knew the wedding day was going to be beautiful through the planning process but I couldn’t imagine it being as beautiful as it was. From the morning of getting ready, to riding away at night I was in awe the entire time. I felt like the luckiest girl/bride in the world getting married there and having the support from all the staff and support.
