I attended a wedding here recently and the bride and groom were stunning, the venue was gorgeous. Unfortunately like many other guests have stated, the experience with the venue owner was atrocious. as a dear friend of the bride I witnessed many downfalls leaving up to this joyous occasion that did nothing but add more stress to the wedding planning. In my opinion the owner should have been doing everything she could to take away from this stress but quite the opposite occurred. From cancelling the valet service merely 1 week before the event to more issues/delays/cancellations experienced up until and actually ON the wedding day. The horse and carriage the bride was supposed to take to the ceremony site was cancelled 5 minutes before the ceremony. Instead of apologizing and making these things right JoAnn is taking no responsibility. The bride and groom and filed a lawsuit. I advise you to look at other venues, not worth all the heartache.

We had an excellent experience with BrighterDaze Farm for our wedding reception this September. All the staff was fantastic, and everyone was super easy to communicate with. The venue is beautiful, and the entire day went smoothly from set up to clean up. We couldn't have been happier choosing this venue for our special day.

Brighterdaze was the perfect venue for our wedding. All of the staff were very helpful when we were setting up and throughout the day/night of the wedding. JoAnn answered all of my questions promptly during our planning period. Our "day of coordinator" was also very helpful. I didn't have to worry about anything.

Our wedding at Brighterdaze Farm was everything we dreamed it to be! BrighterDaze is an extremely beautiful and flexible venue that allows you to bring your vision for your wedding to life. The ceremony site with the willow tree and koi pond made for the perfect setting for our wedding and photos, and the barn was the perfect open concept space for a large wedding! Joann was helpful and easy to work with, and the day of coordinator for the venue was very helpful and kept things running smoothly on our big day!

We cannot say enough kind words about Brighterdaze Farm and the staff! In regards to the venue, it is absolutely breathtaking. The property is private and very intimate. It is pet-friendly and you have free range to make it your own! It also has brand new restrooms, bridal room, two bars, and a groomsmen room. We were lucky enough to set up the night before and clean up the day after. JoAnn made sure we had everything set up the way we wanted and even made some adjustments for us the night before our wedding. I would recommend Brighterdaze to anyone who wants a unique and rustic wedding.

Everything turned out amazing and was more than I could ever imagine. I was a little disappointed in the communication between us before the wedding, but as the wedding came and went it was perfect and exactly what I had wanted. Everything I had imagined came to life. The price was amazing and for having to change my venue 3 months prior to the wedding they were amazing.

Such a great potential but horribly run. They provided no handicap bathrooms, refrigerators were broken and we were forced to do all the sent up ourselves including putting our own linens on!! Not sure what the $ went toward but nobody was ever available to assist and the next day when a guest realized they lost their phone and asked to come look in the pasture only was told ‘were closed’ and ‘we reopen tomorrow’ meanwhile there was a storm and if the phone is there it’s not usable anymore. STAY AWAY AND DON’T WASTE YOUR MONEY! They’re are many more accommodating farms close by!!
