From our first visit to Mountain View Menagerie, we could see the owners' vision coming to life even though they were still in the early stages of building the venue and living in their camper on site. Their laid-back energy and enthusiasm made us feel confident about their dream, and they were so helpful with vendor recommendations and anything I needed as we planned our wedding. The venue itself turned out beautiful, completely decorated with quality details throughout the whole venue even if I didn't add my own personal touches. The venue is beautiful and clean and the animals create such a fun experience to add to your special plus the guests love them! On our wedding day, they were constantly there making sure everything ran smoothly. Kim took the best photo of me with my sons right before I walked through the barn doors and also made sure everything went smoothly. Their creative approach and easy communication style made the whole experience feel special. We couldn't have asked for better people to trust with our celebration.

We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful venue for our daughter's wedding! Everything was absolutely wonderful, and it was the perfect setting for such a special day. The owner was incredibly attentive, kind, and willing to help in any way she could. She truly went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly, which meant so much to us.
As the mother of the bride, it was wonderful to be able to relax and enjoy the day knowing everything was taken care of. We made so many beautiful memories and are incredibly grateful for such a positive experience. I would highly recommend this venue to anyone planning a wedding or special event!

We were lucky enough to get a sneak peak of this amazing venue back in November and we immediately understood why our son and daughter-in-law had fallen in love with Mountain View ...
Menagerie. Even then, Kimberly shared her vision for what was still to come - and she absolutely delivered. From the snow capped Mountain View’s surrounding the outdoor space to the elegant indoor venue, every corner was stunning. Kimberly’s attention to detail, dedication, and passion helped create a day that was nothing short of magical.

didn’t cooperate. The barn sparkled so beautifully with all the magical touches added inside to create a warm and wonderful reception area. It wasn’t a large crowd but even so, it felt intimate and inviting. Kimberlie and James were so helpful leading up to the event and throughout the day. The entire experience was delightful and I highly recommend!

or you and Ben. The pleasure was truly ours! We could not have asked for a better family to have helped us celebrate our Grand Opening! Not to mention that there would not be a Mountain View menagerie venue if it wasn’t for you and Ben! Although my heart is sad that you had to go through the stress of another venue canceling on you I feel blessed that it led to our paths crossing! Thank you for trusting us with such an important day!
