Wedding 9/12/26
We got married at Green Acre Event Center on September 12, 2026, and it was truly a beautiful day. Green Acre complimented our wedding perfectly in every way! Ahsha and Robyn were absolutely wonderful to work with from start to finish. The barn itself is so beautiful that you really don’t need many decorations to make it feel special. It provides such a gorgeous setting all on its own. Ahsha, Robyn, and the entire Green Acre Event Center staff were lovely to work with. We received so many compliments from our guests about how helpful, friendly, and attentive the staff were throughout the day. They truly helped make our wedding day feel seamless and enjoyable. I cannot recommend Green Acre Event Center enough to anyone looking for the perfect venue for their wedding or special event. We are so grateful we chose Green Acre and will always look back on our wedding day with so many wonderful memories!

Our Amazing Wedding at Green Acres
We had such a wonderful experience with our wedding venue from start to finish! We absolutely loved the venue itself, and especially enjoyed working with our venue coordinator, Ahsha. She was wonderful to work with and helped make the entire process feel smooth and enjoyable. We also had great interactions with the rest of the staff, who were friendly, helpful, and welcoming throughout our wedding day. Our guests had so many wonderful things to say about the venue! Many complimented the beautiful interior and decorations, and everyone had an amazing time celebrating with us. We also received so many compliments on the food and catering through Green Mill. Overall, we couldn’t have been happier with our experience. The beautiful venue, fantastic staff, and delicious food all helped make our wedding day truly special and memorable. We’re so grateful to everyone at Green Acres who helped make it such a wonderful celebration!

This venue was BEAUTIFUL!
My wife and I got married at Green Acres Event Center on September 13th 2026! It was an INCREDIBLE experience!! We had around 130 guests which fit perfectly into the space. Ahsha was the operations manager who helped things run smoothly on our big day! She was absolutely fantastic and lifted a lot of the day of stress off our shoulders! The building is beautiful and the main floor, outdoor, and upstairs space is roomy and decorated impeccably. I am so glad we decided to go with green acres for our wedding day!!

Absolutely beautiful venue!
Our wedding ceremony/reception at Green Acres was absolutely beautiful! The venue was stunning, everything was well organized, and the staff made sure our day went so smoothly. We couldn't have asked for a better place to celebrate such a special moment. Thank you for helping make our wedding day unforgettable!

Great experience!
Our wedding day was everything we hoped for and Green Acres Event Center and the staff there played a huge role in making it so special. The venue itself is stunning and has so much character we only added a few decorations to add our own touch. The indoor and outdoor spaces were both gorgeous and the perfect atmosphere for our ceremony and reception. We appreciated the ability to move the ceremony indoors if weather wasn’t cooperating. Robyn and the other staff were incredibly kind, professional, and attentive throughout the planning process and on the wedding day. Their excellent and prompt communication made us feel so supported and took away much of the planning stress. They worked so well with our coordinator and handled logistics so flawlessly that we got to just relax and enjoy our day. Highly recommend this venue!
