Alum Creek Farm was the perfect venue for our wedding day! We knew from our initial tours that the venue would serve as a beautiful backdrop for our mid-summer wedding. The team wa...s very communicative and organized throughout the entire process and as the date got closer, and we had several opportunities to plan and coordinate all of the ins-and-outs based on our dreams and preferences.
Setup was always going to be a breeze, thanks in large part to the "Something Borrowed" closet, which proved critical to our decor (which only needed a few touches given the natural beauty of the venue). There are so many things you just don't think of that the venue had covered. But even the things you do think of, like loading in drinks, getting ready (with 10am access), and setting up tables and chairs were simple with the support of the day-of team. Tony was eager to help, and stopped at nothing to make sure we had everything we needed during set-up. Erin did an outstanding job coordinating the event, and bending to adapt to a few curveballs that were thrown our way by weather and other vendors.
The event itself was executed spectacularly. Our ceremony in the greenhouse was more beautiful than we ever could have imagined during our winter tours. The seamless mix of indoor and outdoor space provided our guests with a variety of ways to be involved; opting for some privacy in the silos, grabbing a quieter space with a view of the action at a cocktail table in the greenhouse, or dancing the night away on the open and expansive dance floor.
At the end of the night Jake & Luis, who had already helped to make our guests feel welcome and comfortable with transportation and additional support throughout the day, exceeded expectations by helping administer cleanup even more than we had anticipated. Even after our private last dance capped off the greatest night of our lives, we just didn't want to leave.
We know the Alum Creek Farm team is actively working to make improvements to their infrastructure, and the air flow in the barn was more than satisfactory for a humid summer day. Their commitment to growing and improving will not go unnoticed.
One more bonus shoutout to everyone at Alum Creek Farm, because they deserve it. They felt more like family than hired staff, as we truly felt that they set out to throw us a flawless event because they cared about our happiness, not because they had to. This venue can do no wrong. 7 stars, if we could.
