“The Historic Wakefield Barn was the perfect venue for our wedding day. Their communication throughout the planning process was outstanding - Brent was so helpful and responsive, making the entire experience stress-free. The venue itself is absolutely gorgeous, with a unique vintage and classy feel that exceeded our expectations. They went above and beyond to make our day special, providing a beautiful custom "Savannah" hanger when we booked the venue and even arranging for horses to be part of our celebration. When it rained right after our ceremony, we were so grateful for the indoor/outdoor capabilities - the team had a seamless rain plan that allowed us to enjoy the rest of the evening indoors. I highly recommend The Historic Wakefield Barn to any couple looking for a stunning, versatile wedding venue.”

“There would never be enough words of praise for how my husband and I feel about The Victorian and having it as our wedding venue. We were married here on October 2, 2021 and it was the BEST day. Brian and Giuliana are incredible and have truly put so much hard work into making this venue beautiful. It is naturally beautiful on both the inside and the outside, that you really don't even need many decorations. Not to mention, the way that Brian and Giuliana have decorated the inside of the house (especially the bridal suites and groomsmen rooms and the library) is GORGEOUS." We chose a package with the venue that included additional items, along with day-of-coordination, and we are SO GLAD we did. Having Brian as our day-of-coordinator was a GIFT! He made sure the day ran so smoothly while being so calm and fun (never frazzled). Our families and bridal party were so impressed with Brian and how he and his team ran our so wedding from start to finish that day. The Victorian has a preferred list of vendors and EVERY vendor we used from that list was INCREDIBLE. All of these vendors ended up being our favorite vendors. We highly recommend using Brian and Giuliana's preferred vendors because it saves SO many headaches and they happen to know great people who end up feeling like friends, not just vendors. Even more so, Brian and Giuliana were so responsive to us from Day 1 and always answered our questions thoroughly and quickly. We knew when we booked we had found a gem of a venue, but that's an understatement. Our wedding day at The Victorian was a dream, and The Victorian (Brian and Giuliana) played one of the biggest parts in that. I could go on and on about how we feel about The Victorian, but to sum it up: we cannot recommend getting married here enough!”
