Stone Garden was the perfect venue for our wedding day. From the very beginning, their communication was responsive and extremely detailed, which put us at ease throughout the planning process. The location is absolutely beautiful, with a well-designed layout that allowed for a seamless flow of the day's events. The team at Stone Garden went above and beyond, adding so many small, thoughtful touches like yard games, twinkling lights, and gorgeous floral arrangements that truly made our day feel special. Kristen, the wedding planner, thought of every last detail and worked tirelessly to make sure anything we wanted was brought to life.

We were so pleased with our amazing experience at Fern Hill Barn!! Every member of the team was consistently working throughout the day to make things run smoothly and help take any pressure or stress off us as the bride and groom. We experienced a very aggressive pop up thunderstorm right as our outdoor ceremony was supposed to take place, and I have never seen a team take action like they did. Carly kept me posted on the forecast and when we were forced to move inside, the team was at attention, putting up the sides of the tent, moving florals, and keeping everything pristine for the tent ceremony. Joanne, our banquet captain, helped me with any and everything that day - from adjusting my veil and dress, to calming my nerves about the storm, and even making sure we had our first congratulatory drinks once we were married. I cannot thank everyone enough, and we will surely be recommending our venue for years to come. All our guests were so pleased and so complimentary of the food, the cake, the friendliness of all staff, and the overall atmosphere. THANK YOU FERN HILL BARN TEAM!!

Awarded Best of Zola
Our experience from start to finish was awesome! We worked with Lauryn and we loved her enthusiasm, knowledge, professionalism, and ability to pivot. She is wonderful and so is the rest of the staff, especially our day of coordinator, Ava. The venue itself is stunning and we're still receiving positive feedback from all our guests. Highly recommend Harrington Farm!
