Let us share our special place with you…Tucked away on a mountain top is Winter Wood Farm. Come visit and you’ll find a gorgeous barn full of elegant touches with stunning views of graceful rolling hills, the majestic Blue Ridge mountains, and the historic New River. It’s the perfect backdrop for the wedding of your dreams… A day at the farm is soothing to the soul, which is just what every couple needs… and your guests will enjoy this beautiful experience too.

Winter Wood is such an amazing venue. Everyone is so kind and helpful. They really make you feel at home and wanted as a client (unlike some venues I looked at). They are so good at communicating and supporting clients in any way possible. Brooke quickly answered any questions I had. The views are BEAUTIFUL! When I walked in, the venue itself took my breath away. They have a resources page that has all wedding details you would need all in one place (table size, what they supply, vendor recommendations, etc.). This made things so much easier when planning our wedding. I couldn’t have asked for a better venue or venue owner! We are blessed to have found this gem, and I always recommend it to anyone planning a wedding!

Awarded Best of Zola
Absolutely a bride and groom's dream come true of a venue. My groom and I toured this venue when it wasn't quite complete in construction yet and we just knew that was where we would get married. Blake, Dana, and Carly have poured their heart and soul into this venue so every couple can feel at home. The bridal loft is so unique and a wonderful place for the bride to decompress before her big day. The groom's quarters truly give him and his groomsmen an opportunity to relax and have fun before the big reveal. And the views from the outdoor patio and ceremony area is the perfect spot to celebrate and gave us the perfect spot for our Mountain themed wedding. Carly and Dana are extremely detail oriented and make sure that their couples and families have the BEST day. From decorations to transitions through out the day, the Whispering Ridge team is there with you every step of the way. I wouldn't recommend a better place for couples to experience and celebrate their love and their wedding.
