It was a wonderful experience working with The Vecoma by the Yellow River. They are top notch professionals. The food was the best I have ever had. (To name a few - Salmon, roast beef- caesar salad and Mac and cheese were so good).. The guests could not say enough good things about the food. The venue itself is gorgeous. We had a fall wedding down by the river. Leaves were falling and it was just magical. The cost for this venue is a steal. Book this place!! The owners are the best and everything is very organized. Caroline is a wonderful photographer and so easy to work with. The day went so smoothly. Within a few days, we received a few sneak peek photos and then a great short video of our wedding. Our day was wonderful and stress free thanks to these people! I have had three daughters get married, directed and decorated for many weddings in my lifetime- and I can honestly say- this is the best I have worked with and seen.

The Willows Farm was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From the very first time we reached out, Amy was so helpful and kind, always promptly answering any questions we had. The venue itself is truly breathtaking - the rolling hills, lush greenery, and charming rustic details created a magical atmosphere that felt like something out of a fairytale.
