I’d pick this venue a million times over.

The property is absolutely incredible and exceeded every single hope and dream I had for it, but Bear and Kimber are truly the ones who stole the show.
Bear and Kimber own this gorgeous property and I don’t think I have ever met anyone as kind hearted as these two. From letting me and my fiancé come see the property countless times, to helping set up and answering/coordinating every single question to Kimber hiding me away on a golf cart before walking down the aisle calming every single nerve I had, these two are truly the best part of this venue.

The venue rental is from Friday to Sunday which was not only a life savior for setting up, but also allowed us to host all of our guests for a very casual party the Friday before our wedding. We spent a few hours being able to actually talk and connect prior to our wedding day. Bear and Kimber stopped by to make sure all was well prior to the party and helped us unload and set everything up, then they stopped by after the party as well.

The chalet on property is a helpful touch, me and my bridesmaids stayed the night prior to allow for a nice night of relaxing and then being on property early in the AM to start hair and makeup on the property as well! They’ve really thought of it all.

There’s plenty of spots on property for the ceremony and you walk through with them where you want the chairs set up, we picked the grove. From the minute me and my now husband saw it, we knew, this was it. They have a grove of trees with enough space to set up chairs and have the most picturesque ceremony, something I kept joking was straight out of a Taylor swift music video.

The wedding hiccups on behalf of our DJ, Bear helped my DOC tackle with grace I had barely any ideas of anything happening until it was all said and done.

A perfect day, with the most perfect location.

Then! When we started cleaning up, I was panicked over my thousands of dollars of florals I was about to throw away when Kimber mentioned she personally takes all leftover florals to a nursing home to donate. Then she continues with ideas for anything that we wanted to leave behind, don’t want to lug cases of water home(we sure didn’t) she’d help donate them to the local sports teams. Extra decorations, they have a full closet to help future brides, and trust me, I sure needed to borrow some last minute things from there!

We saw over 20 venues when we were on the hunt for a space, and I feel so fortunate to find Whispering Woods.

i know I will spend the rest of my days making sure I tell local future brides what a hidden gem this place is. The amount of our guests that complimented the space and mentioned they’ve never seen anything more beautiful has confirmed what we already knew.

Bear and Kimber, thank you from the absolute bottoms of our heart, you exceeded any dream we had for the day!

The BEST decision we made!

My husband and I were married at Whispering Woods this past June. Having our wedding at Whispering Woods was, hands down, the best decision that we could have made! The beauty of the property speaks for itself – the land and buildings are meticulously kept, and the flexibility of having many acres at our disposal was something that we truly appreciated. There were countless backdrops for wedding party and family pictures, and simply spending the weekend on the property added to the magic of wedding time! Bear was extremely accommodating and warm from the start and allowed us to visit the property many times for planning purposes. Throughout the entire weekend of the wedding itself, Bear, Kimber, and the team were present to help us with the set up and tear-down, and made sure that we had everything that we needed in order for the event to run smoothly. I can not say enough how much we appreciate the dedication of the team at Whispering Woods, and we (and our wedding party) simply enjoyed their presence, as well! You will not find a better, more gorgeous venue, or better people to work with. We were also able to bring in our own vendors, and decorate to our hearts’ content, which allowed us to create the day and weekend of our dreams, truly. Whispering Woods is a gem in every way, and we are so thankful to have found the venue and to have crossed paths with Bear and Kimber!

Breathtaking Venue!!!

If you like beautiful scenery, this is the venue for you! I cannot say enough positive things about Whispering Woods! Bear and Kimber were easy to work with, quick to respond, and there if you needed anything. The views on this property are perfect and we got married by one of the ponds. Everyone loved the property and kept asking how we found such a perfect venue! Throughout our planning process, Bear was responsive, helpful, and wonderful to work with! We utilized all aspects of this venue: cabin, reception hall, and bridal suite/man cave. Everything was so clean and ready to go when we got there. Bear helped us with setting up tables and Kimber assisted with clean up which overall made everything easier! When you rent Whispering Woods, you get the venue for the weekend which makes everything way less stressful. You are able to come and set up on Friday and then clean up on Sunday. With this, you are truly able to enjoy your special day. Our day went exceptionally perfect and we have Whispering Woods to thank for that! I would recommend Whispering Woods any day of the week and if I could give them more than 5 stars, I would!
