I have photographed several weddings at Hilltop, and even though I’m quite biased towards it already, I do think it is a magical place for not just the couples, but the guests and vendors as well. As a photographer, you have sooooo many places to explore and have fun shooting at. It’s quite the dream. :) The owners are just so great too, so I hear. ;)

YMCA Camp Pinewood was the perfect venue for our wedding. Mila, the venue coordinator, was very hands-on and always available to talk whenever we had questions or concerns. The campsite is absolutely beautiful and provides a stunning backdrop for the wedding. The lodge for the reception was of great quality and provided enough space for all of our guests. The camp staff helped out the whole weekend and even provided fun activities like rock climbing and archery for our guests. We couldn't have asked for a better venue to celebrate our special day. The perfect venue for a camping wedding but still makes it feel like an actual wedding venue!

I recommend August Hill because for me it was the absolute best and more affordable place to hold your wedding. From the AirbNb that has the space and necessities for the wedding party to get ready, to the Barn Venue that you can decorate to your own personal liking. Lastly they have a outdoor bar, and if you serve alcohol, they provide you with bartenders so you dont have to worry about the guest serving themselves. August Hill is the perfect place if you're looking for a outdoorsy, country feeling wedding. I promise you wont be disappointed as the owners try to accommodate what they can for your special day.

If you don't get married here, you're missing out! The ENTIRE experience was way better than I ever could have imagined! Think wedding planning is stressful? Not here. From the planning stages all the way to the wedding day/night was such a stress-free time. I was truly able to enjoy every moment of my wedding because of how easy Maggie and Vince made it. Their communication and easy-going personalities made the whole process so much fun! The venue is BEAUTIFUL. It's perfectly laid out for a one stop shop. I had my ceremony, pictures, dinner and reception all on site. There are SO MANY good spots to take pictures, the bar area is ridiculously perfect and charming, and the barn is so rustic and beautiful. I have too many good things to say about my experience. I loved it so much that I can't wait to start planning my vow renewal ceremony so I can do it all over again and without a doubt have it at Magnolia's at Hobart!
