We had such an amazing wedding at The Oliver Building. Having the venue for the whole weekend made our weekend run so smoothly. We had our rehearsal Friday night, and brought everything over so we didn’t need to deal with it Saturday. Then got ready in the amazing upstairs suites Saturday morning. We had a great time, and Caitlin was so easy to work with! The only reason I took a star off is that we had some issues with the bar. We made it clear from the start that we wanted to prioritize the bar, and didn’t want long lines. Because of that, they said we would have 3 bartenders, and would batch some of our signature cocktails. Unfortunately, we only had two bartenders, despite giving tips for 3, and there were no cocktails batched. We did have a pretty long line at our bar most of the night because of this. All in all, it was an amazing venue for our wedding!!

Emma Creek Barn was extremely, extremely on it! This gorgeous venue was the perfect venue for nearly 200 ppl attending my wedding not to mention the family! This couple-run business was on top of things with preparation, day-of series of events, and they were very reasonable with extra costs! The Hastings are generous and kind people to work with and they were very responsive to texts and calls leading up to the wedding, which was such a relief. Their payment plan is done by paper contract only, which maybe the only thing I would've changed, but honestly, it helped both parties (my parents and the managers) clearly see what we were requesting from this venue! We did our own sound and were lucky to have incredible help from our friends, and they were so chill and flexible with all of that! Josh and Natasha were so good about lighting, helping with setup, and they even let us bring out a baby grand (we did all the moving)! They offer drape-hanging from the rafters, which is an added fee, but the barn is spacious enough and has that perfect rustic feel that we didn't feel the need for the extra accessories! The inside of the barn is a little tight fitting for 200 guests, so I would recommend doing seating in and outdoors, but its perfect for any number under that! The grass and the stage were the perfect setup in our early-August wedding! They had fans for the inside or wherever we wanted them. My favorite part was having a big cabin less than two miles away from the venue where my bridesmaids and I could spend the night before and have space to get ready. Just what I needed as a stressed out bride. It's a two minute country drive from the venue, and that just what i needed The spacious rooms of this beautiful wood cabin makes for a perfect spot for any pre-celebrations as well as for your wedding night! Another highlight that I didn't expect was all of the photo spots! That made the memories so special!!! Overall, if I could give them a 10 out of 5, I would! Have your wedding at Emma Creek Barn!

White Iron Ridge Venue was the perfect location for our special day. The communication with the venue staff leading up to our wedding was very quick and efficient, which we greatly appreciated during the hectic planning process. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful, spacious, and magnificent - the perfect backdrop for our ceremony and reception. On the day-of, the staff worked diligently and carefully to flip the room from the ceremony set up to the reception decor in a very short period of time. All of the vendors were polite, professional, and eager to assist us in any way possible. We could not have asked for a better venue or team to host our wedding - everything was handled smoothly and the gorgeous mountain venue provided the ideal atmosphere to celebrate our marriage with friends and family.

I cannot recommend The Highlands enough as a wedding venue. The owner and venue coordinator, Jean and Aubrey, are constantly working to make every wedding experience the best. We could not believe the beauty of the venue when we first toured it. Since booking, they have made many beautiful updates such as new bridal suite furniture, new bar decor, and have even added chandeliers to the wings of the venue. We could not believe how much was included with our rental: ceremony and reception table/chair setup and takedown, black or white linens; a full closet of decor including signs, centerpieces, candelabras, table runners, and even champagne walls; open vendor policy, and on-site event staff to help with trashes, bathrooms, and any concerns that may arise. We were incredibly lucky to have found this venue, and we recommend it to every couple searching for one!
