Bride
The Cottage at Woodland Farm was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the moment we stepped onto the property, we felt a very comfortable setting. The staff answered all of our questions and provided great examples and even photos that helped us visualize our special day. Their vintage yet fresh ideas were just what we were looking for. The Cottage staff shared thoughtful suggestions on how to make our wedding day feel truly special for us. It was unknown territory, but the staff made us feel right at home throughout the entire planning process. We are so grateful to the entire team at The Cottage for helping to make our wedding day everything we dreamed of and more.
The Cottage at Woodland Farm is so versatile!
We had an incredible experience working with The Cottage at Woodland Farm for our wedding. They have responded to all of our questions quickly and in detail, and we have always felt supported throughout the planning process. You get so much bang for your buck - they provide the bridal house for us to not only get ready in, but also stay over in! The gathering hall has a super cool and thoughtful space for the groom to get ready, and the event barn/lower barn is truly a special and unique space. I have never been to a wedding venue like this anywhere else. The team at The Cottage at Woodland Farm is top-notch, supporting us every step of the way with their 3-step planning approach, and they even sprinkled in little special touches, always going above and beyond. We can't say enough positive things about The Cottage at Woodland Farm!
