Beautiful Wedding Venue

Valley Mills Farm is an amazing venue. It has beautiful scenery and was the perfect place to have our smaller, intimate wedding. Their micro wedding package included so much for great value! The team at Valley Mills went above and beyond and worked so hard to make everything go as smoothly as possible as well as be as stress free as possible! Whether you are looking for a venue to host a smaller wedding or a larger one, I highly recommend Valley Mills!

Valley Mills Farm - The Dream Team

My first impression of Valley Mills Farm was a delightful one. After getting engaged, my fiancé and I started reaching out to wedding venues to schedule tours. Most responded back quickly with an email, but not Valley Mills Farm. Monica took time out of her day to call and talk to us about our vision and what was important to us in not only a venue, but the entire wedding. One thing that was important to us was to keep the wedding simple and utilize vendors so that all our loved ones could enjoy the day. When we toured the stunning venue and learned that they can provide cake and cupcakes, table linens, some décor, a day of coordinator, a DJ, and a bartender that all have experience working together, we were sold!

From the start, Monica’s clear communication was a blessing. She gave us great advice and superb customer service. I can not imagine a better place to get married or a better team to work with.

Tina, the DOC, is wonderful. She fully embraced my laid-back approach to wedding planning and guided me through the important pieces that allowed the day to flow smoothly for everyone. Thanks to Tina, I was able to fully soak in every moment of our special day. If something didn’t go according to plan, I had no idea. She is a Rockstar.

Monica, the venue owner, is an angel. VMF is a well-oiled machine thanks to her phenomenal organization and attention to detail. I never had any questions about what was expected from my end, which is wonderful when you are planning a wedding and having to make so many decisions. Due to a rainy week, we had to make a decision on if we needed to change our ceremony location from down by the river to up at the deck the week of the wedding. Monica was so patient with us and was fully on board with our decision. We decided to roll the dice and have the ceremony by the river and it ended up being absolutely perfect. She also did our cut cake and cupcakes, and let me tell you, they far surpassed my expectations! Not only can she seamlessly run a venue, but she is also an ARTIST when it comes to sweets. I would 1000% recommend her to anyone in need to deserts for an event. Not having to worry about another vendor and transporting cake and cupcakes was a gift.

Troy, our DJ (VMF’s in house DJ) was absolutely amazing. He was the life of the party and gave us the reception of our dreams. He perfectly mixed up our music to get everyone on the dance floor. We had everyone from our grandparents to our little cousins moving and grooving!

We are so grateful for the VMF team. Because of their wonderful organization and teamwork, we were able to relax and enjoy being surrounded by everyone we love on our special day. Valley Mills Farm will forever have a special place in my heart.

Perfect Wedding Venue!

Valley Mills Farm exceeded all of our expectations and truly made our wedding day unforgettable. From the very beginning, Monica impressed us with her outstanding organization and commitment to making our day special. She worked closely with us to bring our vision to life and ensured that every detail was perfect!
Monica was able to quickly adjust when it poured rain on our wedding day. She seamlessly transitioned our ceremony indoors, and still created the ceremony site of our dreams - all while keeping the day stress-free for us.
In addition to Monica's exceptional service, Valley Mills Farm itself is a picturesque setting for a wedding. The mountain surroundings and beautiful barn added a touch of rustic elegance to our wedding.
We can't thank Monica and Valley Mills Farm enough for making our wedding day so memorable. If you're looking for a venue that combines professionalism, flexibility, and dedication then Valley Mills Farm is the perfect choice for your special day.
