I had my wedding at Wind In The Willows Venue and was thrilled with the venue and the staff. They were always prompt and thorough in their communication, which made planning my wedding a breeze. The venue itself is stunning - the beautiful grounds and barn provided a gorgeous backdrop for our special day. The staff was very accommodating and easy to work with in the planning process and on the wedding day, ensuring everything went smoothly. We received countless compliments from guests on the venue. For a couple looking for a picturesque venue with great service, I would highly recommend Wind In The Willows.

The General Potter Farm is an all-season venue for the ultimate in rustic barn weddings and events. Located just outside of State College, PA, the General Potter Farm sits on 12 acres of woods, fields and streams in Penns Valley. The Barn blends rustic charm and modern elegance, to offer the essential elements of successful, effortless entertaining. Our commitment to simple pleasures, organic beauty, and warm professionalism make this the perfect wedding or event venue.

We used the General Potter Farm for our wedding May 4th, 2024 and it was amazing! They have a ton of outdoor ceremony options, but it rained on our wedding day but we were in luck as the GPF has an indoor option. They also have a large getting ready space for the bride and bridal party. I also recommend staying in the farmhouse (though it is an additional cost). It made things so much easier for us being on the property (also - rent the golfcart)! Keep in mind- they do not have tables or chairs so you will need to rent them elsewhere. We did not understand this when we first booked and got hit with a large rental fee a few months prior to the wedding. Yikes! Binky and Deb are so helpful and amazing to work with and are very easy going. I definitely recommend the GPF!

Aisling Hall is our rustic style venue that offers large doors that can be opened to enjoy the outdoors and our breathtaking vineyard. The hanging chandeliers and wooden beams create a simple, beautiful atmosphere to celebrate your special day. While planning, you have the choice of three outside ceremony locations. Additionally, you will have the opportunity to spend the weekend in our Bed & Breakfast, the Wilson House. Here you can accommodate up to fifteen individuals for overnight stays. The Manor is a Georgian style building with an elegant ballroom event space located in the mansion's sun room surrounded by glass doors. It also includes access to the parlor, music room and dinning room to create a memorable and engaging event for your guests. Our outdoor ceremony location for The Manor is simply stunning and the perfect location for photos with the pergola as the backdrop. The Manor overnight accommodations can sleep up to 22 people in our stylish rooms and suites.

My wedding was an absolute dream at JVW! Molly, the event manager, was amazing and helpful when I was planning my wedding. She was quick to respond and also helped talk through many things about the day so I could plan better. They set up the table and chairs for the reception, and advise you with your guest count how many tables are needed. I also told them how many chairs and they set all those up per table assignments so we did not have to do it while setting up other decor. They also set up all the other tables for you (food/DJ/welcome/cards&gifts), and steam all the linens. They do all the set up for the ceremony (chairs and if you use their arbor - decorations are yours to do). We booked for the weekend so we had overnight guests and stayed over night ourselves, the breakfast was delicious (complementary) and they provided snacks at the rooms which was great; I loved the snack choices and also some of them were made by the winery which I thought was a great touch! The venue is well managed (grass/landscaping was very nice) and there were always people there we could ask if we needed anything. They had people help park guests and golf cart service for some older family members. Finally, there was another wedding going on at the opposite end of the property and we were not bothered at all by their music or guests. One reason we chose to have our June wedding here was also due to the reception hall (Aisling Hall) being air conditioned. Our day was not too hot thankfully but the temp inside was perfect and the cake/cupcakes also held up due to this. It was a really great experience. The winery treated us, our guests, and our vendors with respect and made everyone feel welcome. As the bride, I felt there was plenty of communication with Molly, the order of events/questionnaire was very helpful (as well as the meetings I had with Molly), and I felt great when getting compliments about how gorgeous the venue was!!!
