We had the best time at our wedding. I know people say you don't really get to enjoy your wedding day because you are so busy. Thousand Acre Farm made our day so easy and seamless. Our guests are hoping we book an anniversary party next year so they can come back!

My husband and I had a beautiful March 2026 wedding at The Farmhouse! I cannot thank the staff at the venue enough. Anna was our coordinator, she answered all of our questions and gave advice when needed! Sam (manager) was also so helpful day of the wedding! They both helped coordinate and make things go smooth on the wedding day, so we had no stress! We had a small wedding with a guest count of 30, and every guest complimented the venue space. The Farmhouse was absolutely beautiful! The indoor space was perfect for our ceremony. We held it indoors, as we weren't sure how the weather would be. However, we were able to get so many beautiful pictures in their outdoors space as well! The food was delicious! Chef Derek did a fantastic job. We had so many compliments about it being the best wedding food guest have ever had and how everything was fresh and warm! All of the servers and the bartender were extremely friendly as well! I genuinely do not think the day could have gone any more perfect! I would recommend The Farmhouse to anyone looking for a wedding venue!

Choosing Bayside for our wedding was one of the best decisions we made throughout the entire planning process. From the moment we booked, we knew we were in great hands, but the level of care, professionalism, and attention to detail exceeded every expectation. Katlyn and her entire team were absolutely phenomenal. They were organized, responsive, and genuinely invested in making our day perfect. By the end of the wedding weekend, they truly felt like part of our family. They anticipated every need before we even had to ask, kept everything running seamlessly, and allowed us to be fully present and enjoy every moment. The venue itself is absolutely stunning, but what really sets Bayside apart is the people. Every single vendor we worked with commented on how wonderful the Bayside team was to collaborate with, and many said it's one of their favorite venues because of how organized and supportive the staff is. Hearing that from experienced wedding professionals only reinforced that we made the right choice. If you're considering Bayside for your wedding, don't hesitate—you won't regret it. We couldn't have imagined a more beautiful place to celebrate one of the biggest days of our lives, and we're so grateful to Katlyn and the entire Bayside team for making it truly unforgettable.

The venue was absolutely beautiful, and our bartender was truly outstanding - the best I or any of my guests have ever experienced at a wedding! Huge shoutout to them for making the evening so memorable. The food was impeccable, and our tasting experience was divine. The staff also assisted with setup and takedown, which we really appreciated. However, communication with the venue team was challenging at times. There were many back-and-forth emails that could have been resolved quickly with a phone call, and response times were often slow, even after requesting callbacks. My cake topper was unfortunately broken at some point during cleanup and no one informed us, which was disappointing. We also encountered some issues with the sound system and couldn’t locate the venue’s point person, though thankfully it was resolved before our grand entrance. Overall, despite a few hiccups, the venue was stunning, the food and bar service were exceptional, and our guests had a wonderful time.

Boy did they deliver!!!! The venue was beautiful and well prepared for our day! They worked with us within our budget and made our day absolutely perfect…My husband and I both said we want to get married again every day as long as they are in charge. The food, cake, and beverages were amazing! By far the best wedding food I’ve ever had and our guests agreed. Lindsay and Vicky took great care in every detail of our day to make sure it reflected us and they took great care to ensure we were not stressed at all…it was truly amazing! Again, my husband and I both were so happy and grateful for all of their hard work and commitment to us having the perfect day! We’re anxiously awaiting our professional photos, but here are some from family and friends!
