I recently had my wedding at Ever After Farms Stockyard, and it was nothing short of magical. The venue perfectly blends rustic charm with modern elegance, creating an unforgettable atmosphere. The barn, with its whitewashed interiors and warm wooden accents, was both spacious and inviting, setting the perfect stage for our special day. The outdoor ceremony area under the oak trees was absolutely stunning, with a pergola that made for a picture-perfect backdrop. The natural beauty of the setting added a special touch to the event. A special shoutout goes to Mya and her team, who were absolutely incredible. Their professionalism, attentiveness, and genuine care made the day flow seamlessly. They truly went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect, and I couldn’t have asked for better support. The team at Ever After Farms also did an amazing job decorating the venue for my wedding, as planned. They used my personal decorations alongside their own, blending everything beautifully to create a setting that truly reflected my vision. It was such a relief to see everything come together so flawlessly. One of the most magical moments of the day was the breathtaking sunset, which provided the perfect opportunity for stunning photos. It felt like nature itself was celebrating with us. Adding to the charm, the horses at the venue brought a sense of serenity and beauty to the atmosphere, making the experience even more unforgettable. The photobooth was an absolute hit with my guests! It was such a fun addition to the evening, allowing everyone to create cherished memories and take home personalized keepsakes from the day. Not only did I love every detail of the venue, but my guests raved about it as well! They were equally captivated by the charming ambiance and thoughtful design. Additionally, the bathrooms were impeccably clean throughout the evening, which many of my guests appreciated—it’s the little things that make a big difference. The bridal and groom suites were also beautifully designed, offering a comfortable and private space for my wedding party to prepare. Overall, Ever After Farms Stockyard exceeded all my expectations. It is a spectacular venue that offers exceptional service, breathtaking settings, and meticulous attention to detail. I would highly recommend it to any couple looking for a wedding venue that is both charming and stress-free.

My husband and I got married in November 2024, and we were honored to be the first official wedding at this incredible venue. I can't recommend it enough! It’s the perfect one-stop shop for everything you need, from photography and makeup to decor, linens, coordination, and the convenience of hosting both your ceremony and reception in one place. Dana was absolutely amazing. Even though I know a lot about weddings, once it’s your own, it’s like all that knowledge flies out the window! Dana was there every step of the way, reassuring me that she had everything under control. She made sure all of our vendors were in sync and knew exactly where they needed to be. Thanks to her, the day went as smoothly as any wedding possibly could. I received nothing but positive reviews from our guests! The only small challenge we faced was that the getting-ready suites are on the smaller side, so we opted to get ready at a nearby Airbnb. But with a large wedding party and a fully booked venue, everything still went perfectly. The bridal suite is beautifully decorated and truly feels like every bride’s dream. If I had fewer bridesmaids, I would have definitely gotten ready there! I love barn weddings, but I didn’t want the ceremony to feel too country, and this venue was just perfect. The ceremony area is simple in the best way, and the reception space is a charming, modern barn. The venue and staff exceeded all our expectations, making the day stress-free and allowing us to truly enjoy every moment. I couldn't recommend this place more!

From the moment we stepped onto the Bella Cosa property, we knew we had found something truly special. Every step of the planning process was easy and stress free. Our wedding was everything we dreamed of and more. The stunning lakefront setting, historic charm, and peaceful atmosphere made it the perfect place to say “I do.” A huge thank you to Brittany Knox, our incredible wedding consultant, for making that process so smooth. We couldn’t have done it without her and our planner! Without sounding too sappy. What truly set Bella Cosa apart was the feeling it gave us. From exchanging our private vows under the oak trees to the bubble exit on the front lawn with all our loved ones. Then to end the night sitting around with our family/friends, eating pizza, just chatting about the magical evening in the upstairs suites. And don’t get me started on how awesome it was to be able to stay on site, night of! To any couple searching for a venue that combines natural beauty, historical charm, and heartfelt hospitality, Bella Cosa is a place where wedding dreams are not only possible—they're brought to life.

Lorraine & Staff When I found The Garden Ballroom, I knew it was the venue for us. Both my new husband & I work a lot of hours, and didn’t have much time during the week to plan our wedding. We used their all inclusive package, it made planning a breeze. We found that Lorraine was very accommodating to us, as we had a few hiccups since we were planning from afar. We drove for two hours to do the important meetings in person, and a few on the phone. Day of the wedding, it was easy to kick back and trust the Garden Ballroom had it under control. If there was ever a problem, I had no idea. All my guests loved the venue and had wonderful things to say. We stayed at the Staybridge Suites around the corner, and it made it so easy! I cannot say enough nice things about both Lorraine, Alfredo, and the staff at The Garden Ballroom. Everyone we worked with was so kind and wonderful to speak with. My guests spoke highly of the venue and staff as well. The venue itself was beautiful and charming. There are so many options for decorations, Lorraine will be able to capture your vision. I scrolled through their Instagram, and sent them DM's when I liked something in particular. Be sure to follow them and watch their stories & posts if you book! You won't be disappointed booking at this venue. While the building itself doesn't have its own parking lot, there is ample parking nearby. None of my guests had a problem. Catering The Catering was good! We selected for the Italian Menu, as we knew it would be a crowd pleaser. During the tasting we provided some feedback, and it was resolved. Catering was also able to accommodate our vegetarian guests by making sure the meatballs were on the side; which was a big deal to us. I know not all catering companies will do alterations, so it was nice to have it. We also had a gluten free guest, and I was happy to hear that I could order her a special plate. She gave it a 10/10 too! The food was delicious and I was hearing compliments from everyone. DJ For our DJ, we had Carlos. We were not sure if any of our guests were going to get on the dance floor. So we told him to go with the flow. We also bought some LED foam light sticks. Carlos did a fantastic job! We had people up on the dance floor the whole time. My guests loved the music selection. Being able to share songs from a Spotify playlist made sending our song selections so easy.

Awarded Best of Zola
This venue is beyond gorgeous! And the staff / wedding day management were absolutely amazing and so patient. Cameron and Ana were so great and I’m so thankful for them helping out for our big day ! It was supposed to rain so last minute they had to push evening inside and it ended up being everything I hoped for. I would highly recommend anyone to get married at this venue ( or any of their venues ) and to make sure you get the wedding day management. The bridal bubble was not popped at all and I was as stress free as an already Anxious bride could get. They checked in all the time to make sure I was okay and to keep me on the loop as far as how the timeline was going. Thank you guys for everything you guys did for us on our big day !

We had a great day there and would recommend to anyone thinking about booking this venue.

2026 dates available!!! Flora Groves is a family-owned, backyard-style wedding venue set on 40 peaceful acres in Florida. Our land has been in the family since the 1940s, when my great-grandfather first planted it as an orange grove. It’s now been passed down through four generations, and today, it's where we host weddings that feel grounded, personal, and full of heart. When my husband and I decided to get married, we knew the farm was the perfect place. We didn’t bring in a team or outside investors, we built it ourselves, with the help of close friends and family. Every path, fence, and detail was handcrafted with care. It was a big project, but one that means the world to us, and became the place we got married! Now, we’re proud to share this space with other couples. If you're looking for a quiet, natural, and one-of-a-kind setting that feels truly personal, Flora Groves might be the perfect fit. It’s a place with history, heart, and room to make it your own.

I recently hosted my event at Flora Groves Farms and it was absolutely stunning! The space is gorgeous, with so many beautiful details — the butterfly garden was such a magical touch and made for the perfect backdrop. I also loved that we had access to their tents, umbrellas and tables, which made setup so seamless. Jada, the owner, was incredible to work with — she went above and beyond to help with planning and made the whole process feel easy and enjoyable. Couldn’t recommend this venue more for anyone looking for a dreamy, well-run space to host their special event!

The team at Winthrop Barn Theatre were so incredibly helpful from the day that I inquired about the venue. They were so accommodating and kind. We had a smaller budget for our wedding reception and I felt that the pricing for the venue rental was affordable. The deposit was also very minimal in comparison to other venues that we looked into. I liked that we had the flexibility to create our vision. One of my favorite things was the lighting. Our family and friends enjoyed taking photos at night in the courtyard out back. We had a lot of guests compliment the beauty of the venue itself as well as Winthrop Town Centre. The bathrooms were nice and clean. The preferred vendors on their list were great to work with. We were so very happy to have our wedding reception there and will cherish the memories made for years to come.

We married at The Osprey View on May 4, 2025 and it was truly incredible. Each of our guests took the time to express with my husband Alex and I on how beautiful the venue was. Our wedding was planned in two months and having Josh to help guide us was a blessing. He was communicative, always made himself available, and really is just a great and friendly person over-all. Josh went above and beyond for us. He even sped away on the golf-cart to retrieve my phone from the house that had my vows on it when I was already at the end of the aisle! The house onsite was GORGEOUS and was such a comfy environment to get ready in for our big day. I wish I could relive the day over and over! Thank you for everything!
