The private pond, fields upon fields of lavender, pergola cocktail area, wooded paths, and the adorable grazing sheep are just a few of the stunning backdrops for your special event and each is *chef's kiss* in creating that special, whimsical look any couple would love for their day. Highly recommend Laura Brittingham and this venue–book with them! ...Do it!!

I can't put into words the experience of working with Annemarie and Jim. They were great communicators from start to finish. We went to the first open house last fall and decided to book for March 2024. It gave us 6 months of planning, and as stressful as it was, the easiest part was working with Annemarie to plan it all. The venue is beautiful and the house is perfect and Annemarie makes sure to make you feel so special and heard throughout the process. All my guests raved about the venue and all said "if this was around when I got married, I would have picked this place". Truly a beautiful experience from beginning to end.

We have been working with [and for] Castle Farm since the beginning. We did the first wedding ever there! Every year they add something new and there are tons of places for pictures!

I have no words other then how perfect my wedding day was. My husband and I were married at the farm October 19, 2019 and everything was just absolutely perfect. Miranda helped make any of my visions and dreams came true! Even the morning of, everything was already set she came into the bridal suit to ask if I needed anything and I asked about the tree trailer in back for pictures and within minutes she had her dad out there putting it out for me!!!! Our wedding went off without a hitch! Even since then I have attended another wedding at the venue and I also take photos on the farm. This venue is so easy to work with! They are a great family owned venue that want to make sure everyone is happy! I’ve even told them to set me a wedding vow renewal in 10 years just because they have done so much more to the farm since we were married! I want to experience all of the new things! I give them all the stars of recommendation I possibly can!
