You will not be disappointed!!!
McGuire's Millrace Farm was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the moment we first reached out, the team led by Natalie was incredibly easy to communicate with - they were direct in their responses and fast to address any questions or concerns we had. On the day of, Natalie ran a tight ship and the wedding moved along seamlessly. The quality of their work and the value they provided was truly amazing - the venue looked stunning, the service was top-notch, and they took care of every little detail so we could just focus on enjoying our special day. You will not be disappointed booking McGuire's Millrace Farm for your wedding!
