Winter Wood Farm was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding day. From the moment we first reached out, their communication was quick, helpful, kind, informative, and welcoming. They went above and beyond to ensure our day was perfect, providing complimentary decor, chairs, tables, and linens for our tables. The venue itself was absolutely beautiful and offered an amazing view at a very reasonable price. Winter Wood helped make our day the most perfect it could be! They were attentive to our needs and were open to all of the ideas we had for our day. We could not have asked for a better wedding venue and highly recommend Winter Wood Farm to any couple looking to get married.

Pilot Mountain Vineyards is the best of the best. I was a bride at their stunning venue, and my husband and I feel so unbelievably grateful to have found this place. Kari and Mark (owners) are exceptional: a duo who make the wedding planning and wedding day stress-free, fun, and easy. The food was so delicious, I've asked for their Marry Me Chicken recipe! We had guests coming up throughout the night to tell us not only how delicious the food was, not only how gorgeous the view was, not only how fun the music selection was (PMV is the DJ too!) but how it was the BEST WEDDING they'd ever attended. When we ran into a bump in the timeline (I REALLY wanted that First Look moment, but we had spent too much time on pre-ceremony shots), Kari stopped the traffic to the venue so that we could still have this essential, beautiful moment to ourselves. We got our First Look photos, thanks to Kari. She saved the day! And made it so smooth after that. We will never forget this night. We will never forget Kari and Mark and their incredible venue. We will never forget how they made us feel. Thank you

Sky Retreat was an absolute dream venue for our wedding! From start to finish, their communication was quick, easy, straightforward, and clear, making the planning process a breeze. The quality of their work and the overall value was nothing short of beautiful, extraordinary, magical, and truly unique. The staff on site was a delight to work with - they were there all day to help with anything we needed and were always happy to step in and lend a hand. The venue itself was so unbelievably beautiful, and with about 150 guests, the size was perfect. I could not recommend Sky Retreat more highly, and the added bonus of the adorable donkeys and goats was a huge hit with all of our guests!
