We had a beautiful wedding ceremony at Creekside Gathering Place in late September 2024. It was actually the only venue we visited, because as soon as we met Joni and saw the beautiful outdoor ceremony space and the cozy historic barn/reception space, we were in. Joni is so great, she feels like family to us now. The wedding planner, Katie, is essential to making everything run smoothly. She went above and beyond communicating with us and organizing everything. She made sure that we didn't have to do anything other than enjoy ourselves--from the ceremony, to dancing, drinking champagne, and cutting cake--she was amazing. Joni did a beautiful job with our ceremony, and she arranged the most gorgeous flowers. Also the photographer Kellyn is very focused and detail-oriented. She works hard to make sure the pictures are perfect, and she made us feel comfortable. A huge thanks to Creekside for giving us a beautiful day that we will always remember so fondly.

Awarded Best of Zola
I recommend August Hill because for me it was the absolute best and more affordable place to hold your wedding. From the AirbNb that has the space and necessities for the wedding party to get ready, to the Barn Venue that you can decorate to your own personal liking. Lastly they have a outdoor bar, and if you serve alcohol, they provide you with bartenders so you dont have to worry about the guest serving themselves. August Hill is the perfect place if you're looking for a outdoorsy, country feeling wedding. I promise you wont be disappointed as the owners try to accommodate what they can for your special day.
