Hello sweet friends and welcome to GC farms event venue. My name is Katie and my husband and I recently opened this new venue space. We had purchased the property as a wedding present to one another just 3 years ago and after having our own beautiful day that we adored in a barn venue. We decided we loved it so much that we wanted to share in others happily ever afters for years to come, so we designed and built this venue to share in others love stories. We are located in the quaint and naturally beautiful rural town of Reddick, FL, in the quiet country conveniently located on a private 10 acre slice of real country Florida paradise between Gainesville & Ocala Florida. We offer an off-grid/clean solar energy facility, with rustic elegance. We offer everything from limited service options up to all inclusive options. We invited you to create your dream wedding under the oak trees and star lit skies or our cathedral barn complete with loft, twinkling lights and a 6 foot chandelier.

Henry Richardson purchased the High Springs property in 1891 and built the Opera House in 1895. The building was designed in the Romanesque Revival style of architecture. The Opera House was originally designed and built as a socially acceptable venue for entertainment in the then rowdy railroad town of High Springs in 1895. Back in the old days, the High Springs opera house played host to countless itinerant vaudeville performers. The second floor was used as an opera house, theater and social hall, and in the 1920’s as a movie house.
