As a father of a bride, I could not have been more happy about the choice my daughter and her now husband made in choosing North Star Farm Event Center for their wedding. It was amazing! Everything went so smoothly the entire day. Rebecca and Scott along with their staff have this down. Rebecca was their to answer any questions, she helped with vendor suggestions from catering, photographers to the DJ. They had a lot of decor for my daughter to choose from and use. The setup there is perfect. Everything about that day just flowed, including the property itself and in the blink of an eye it was over. They helped pack our things up at the end of the night, they took care of cleaning up, I was back in my hotel before I knew it. I highly recommend North Star Farm to any parent whose child is looking for a venue. They made my life so much easier and really stress free that whole day.

The team at Equestria West is second to none! They were so helpful during the planning process and kept me on track with the myriad of decisions that need to be made. Ann and her team were always available for questions if I needed them. Planning a wedding in less than 6 months was easier because of EW. The day of my wedding went smoothly because of the team at Equestria West. They kept everyone on track and made sure the vendors were where they were supposed to be. The venue is AMAZING and spacious for all of our guests and bridal party. There was nothing overlooked when they built this venue.

NCW is a beautiful location. We were comforted knowing that our outdoor ceremony would have a space to move into if the weather turned (luckily, we had sunshine!). Jackie and Jeff made it so easy to plan the day and the details. The space is so beautiful, we hardly added decoration. Highly recommend NCW!

Green Acres was an absolute dream for our wedding on May 25th! The barn is breathtaking—rustic, romantic, and full of charm. Our ceremony upstairs felt magical, and the entire day flowed seamlessly thanks to Megan, our amazing venue manager. She truly went above and beyond. The downstairs space was perfect for the cocktail hour, and the bridal suite shed out back was adorable—plenty of room for me and my seven bridesmaids. One of the biggest hits was the fire pit with the s’mores package—such a fun, cozy touch to end the night. We couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful or well-run venue. Green Acres made our wedding unforgettable!
