Elegant castle weddings
AWARD WINNER (15X)
Thanks to recommendations from couples on The Knot
Castle Farms is an enchanting wedding venue in Charlevoix, MI. This historic venue invites couples to celebrate their love, surrounded by beautiful architecture and nature. Romantic courtyard chapels, magnificent formal gardens, soaring towers, and stone archways all combine to create a unique and elegant castle wedding tucked away in beautiful Northern Michigan.
Castle Farms was built over 100 years ago, passing through different owners who all added a personalized touch. The buildings eventually fell into ruin until Linda and Richard started to renovate them in 2001. They worked tirelessly to bring this hidden gem back to life. Today, the estate features French-inspired architecture and elegant gardens. This property offers various ceremony and reception venues, hosting weddings with up to 300 guests. The estate will surround you and your guests with stunning landscaping, water features, and stonework. The Knights Castle and Courtyard highlight the property's history with exposed stone walls and beams. This outdoor and indoor space provides a unique backdrop to exchange vows and dance the night away. Their East Garden Room and King's Gallery provide a light and airy indoor space to host your wedding, complete with elegant chandeliers. Castle Farms offers a range of spaces to fit any couple's style.
The team at Castle Farms will assign you a dedicated venue coordinator two months prior to your wedding. During this time, they will work one-on-one with you to help bring your wedding vision to life, from offering planning advice to coordinating with your vendors. They also offer couples a list of preferred accommodations, bar services, catering, florists, and more to assist with planning your big day.

I highly recommend Castle Farms! We had Bella as our coordinator and she was amazing to deal with. Our wedding party and immediate family had nothing but positive things to say about her on our wedding day. The venue is gorgeous, and required very little decor. It was exactly what we were looking for in a venue. Our guests are still talking about how gorgeous the venue is.

Castle Farms was the venue of our dreams! We truly could not have asked for a better place to get married. The staff was very quick with communication and every detail was carefully taken into consideration. Our entire wedding day went so smoothly that we can honestly say that everything was perfect. Kenzie and Alexandria were amazing coordinators and had so much advice and patience with us. It is amazing that Castle Farms assigns a main and assistant day-of coordinators, as this is not a common practice for venues. Having 2 coordinators played a key part in making our day so effortless and fun. We did not have to worry about a thing! Castle Farms was the perfect place to have photos taken, too. The gardens, fountains, ponds, and view of the castle are truly breath-taking. Thank you, Castle Farms!

We were totally pleased with our wedding at Castle Farms. Our guests said that it was the most beautiful wedding they've ever been to. Castle Farms was always responsive, flexible, and friendly. Our day-of wedding coordinator quit the day of our wedding and they promptly replaced her with a highly qualified member of the staff. That being said, I'm sure there was a lot of panic happening behind the scenes between Castle Farms and our wedding planner. We were blissfully unaware and none of it affected our experience. We would highly recommend this venue to anyone looking to have a magical and fairy-tale wedding.

My husband and I got married at castle farms over the weekend and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Everything was truly magical oat our dream venue.
From the first day with our showing to the very end of our wedding night, the communication was clear and consistent. Everyone worked with us with every detail and making sure it was exactly what we wanted. Our coordinator Alaina was so flexible and calm when we had to add or change a few things with hours to the wedding.
Setting up and tear down was a breeze, with so many hands on deck. The location was clean, organized, and beautiful. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience, I would recommend castle farms to anyone.

Stunning venue and grounds-I mean it’s a castle! We had an elopement type wedding for 32 people on a weekday afternoon. We were going to get married in the Queens Courtyard, but due to rain we ended up inside in Kings Galley (it was still very beautiful) Taylor was amazing to work with. She was VERY QUICK to respond to all questions and offered several suggestions-I have no doubt she would make any wedding memorable, stress free and FUN! Thank you for making sure we had a wonderful wedding day, I’m forever grateful. For anyone reading this, don’t hesitate to book them immediately!

We recently got married at Castle Farms and obviously, the venue is gorgeous. We are still getting compliments from guests on how beautiful the venue and grounds are! They host many many events every season so the booking/planning process is very streamlined and easy as there are FAQ pages, recommended vendors, and tons of other information they have to help you plan your event! The downside to producing so many events is that the communication isn’t always timely and you definitely feel like just another wedding as there will likely be 3 others on the same day as yours. You get assigned a coordinator 2 months before your event, but we personally had a difficult time getting replies within a week and found more success simply by calling the castle and talking to the events services line (shoutout to Brenda for dealing with ALL my questions and being so kind and patient). I understand having so many other people to keep track of, but when your date is approaching and you also need help it can be frustrating at times. I also heard complaints from several of my vendors (who are experienced working Castle weddings) that they never received the day of info from the coordinator like they usually do and had minor difficulties upon arrival that were out of character from their experiences. Also be mindful that since 1918 Cellars is on site, you are required to use their wine for your event. This was not a problem since we found wines we enjoyed and the tasting experience prior to the wedding was a blast. Just a helpful note if you and your fiance(e) have a favorite wine that you would like served that day to know you cannot bring in other brands. The day of the event went smoothly on our end and the coordinator/assistant coordinator were super sweet and made sure that everything stayed on track. Final note: MAKE SURE YOUR GUESTS ARRIVE ON TIME. The lift bridge in Charlevoix causes taffic backups that guests may not know to account for. They will not let anyone in late (which I understand for photos and could obviously be distracting) so some of our favorite people unfortunately missed the ceremony and were stuck waiting around until the cocktail hour. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and they really are great at what they do. Just know that since they produce so many events, you will not get that personalized one-on-one feel that a smaller venue would likely be able to provide.

Morgan, thank you for the review and honest feedback. We enjoyed helping with your weddin...
g day! Our hope is that we leave each couple feeling special and appreciated because you truly are valued by our team members. We looked back at your account to review our communication timeframe and saw the longest response time from your Coordinator was within two days from an incoming email or voicemail. There were a couple of times that calls came in on your Coordinator’s day off and we are working on communicating our individual schedules to our couples as they vary based on our event schedules. Wedding vendors were emailed a packet of information on the Tuesday before your wedding which is right on time. Sometimes those packets go to a junk folder because of attachments so we are brainstorming a way to help prevent that from happening. Hopefully our efforts in trying to provide the best service to you and your husband are seen. Thank you for the compliments on how our team did the day of! We are so grateful you chose us as your wedding venue and wish you both the best!

Castle Farms is the most beautiful venue we could have possibly picked. The flower gardens are stunning and the ceremony location was just gorgeous. Our reception was in the Knight's Castle and it was beautiful. I will say there is a slight lack of quality control (linens were sometimes dirty or super wrinkled) but the Castle Farms staff were more than willing to help us switch out linens and clean chairs off while we were setting up. We really couldn't have asked for a better venue.

Let me first off start by saying that in the end, I would do my wedding at the castle again. Looking back at the day itself I was filled with nothing but pure joy as I got to marry my husband in the venue of our dreams. It was everything I wanted - absolutely stunning location, perfect “destination” place, and I hardly had to decorate for it to feel perfect. Just what I wanted! The guests had nothing bad to say either and many have mentioned after the fact that it was definitely a top wedding they’ve been to.
I do, however, want to make it very clear that the venue space did not come without stress though, and I’m sad to say I felt definitely in the minority here as I’ve seen nothing but excellent reviews about the Castle. We booked this space two years in advance, and while most of that time was spent at ease due to my wedding planner, that would not have been the case without her.
Unfortunately, the castle advertises providing an event coordinator that is with you for the last two months of the wedding. When the two month mark hit, we honestly struggled getting into contact with ours. During this time, our event coordinator just.. ghosted us. We had requested a Google Meet chat so me, my planner, and her, could hash out details, which she had confirmed she’d be able to make, and then just never showed up. I sent a follow up email and didn’t hear for the entire week. We finally emailed the head of the castle to see if she was okay, which she then (finally) replied after that week and said she was back, but only then had she finally mentioned that our request to have a later rehearsal time was simply not possible. However, just as we were finishing our rehearsal, another group was coming in. We’d requested a later time and she said they didn’t do rehearsals that late. I am making an assumption but I feel that it was likely more the case of the coordinator not being on top of things.
From there, I just felt like another number. The Castle is known for hosting multiple parties, but even our wedding day we just felt shuffled around. Our coordinator came in to rehearsal not quite knowing most of our details, calling my husband and our crew by the wrong names, etc. Just not how you want to feel as a bride!
Lastly, we got an invoice a few weeks after the fact with our rentals. In the contract, it was stated that we’d be billed right before the wedding with those final rentals included, and my final bill i paid right before the wedding did list them! They just ended up not charging us that full amount and instead notified us later that we still hadn’t paid. Totally fine, as of course I knew what I rented and want to pay what I owe, was just confusing.
I guess what I’m getting at, is that all in all it was a great venue, but be prepared to feel like just another number as they pump out multiple weddings every weekend.
*****edited to add: the Castle followed up RIGHT away on this and took their time to get through the finer details of this review. I felt heard when I talked to Rebecca and it is very clear that they take feedback and are continually working on improving.

Hello Abby,
We are glad to hear that overall your wedding was filled with joy and that y...
our guests had a good experience. All feedback is super important to us as we use this to help us learn what changes we can make to our communication with couples and our interaction with them the day of their wedding. We see that there was some communication challenges in the beginning of your introduction to your coordinator. As soon as we were made aware of this issue we did address this with your coordinator as well as offered some additional support to her. Your coordinator did discuss your request for a later rehearsal with our team and due to our event schedule we were unable to accommodate the later rehearsal time in your original courtyard; however, your coordinator did offer to run a later rehearsal in a different location if the timing would be better for you. We apologize for the billing oversight regarding the rentals. We do not shy away from the fact that on our expansive property we are able to host multiple events in a day. It is our hope and our goal to make you feel incredibly special as a bride getting married at the Castle as we truly feel that way about each and every couple that gets married here. We are sorry if we fell short in providing you this experience. We hope to talk with you directly to gain even more incite into your experience and will be reaching out soon. Thank you again for your feedback. Sincerely, Castle Farms Management

Where to begin?! My husband and I had our dream wedding at Castle Farms. The venue is, of course, absolutely STUNNING, but behind the scenes is the amazing staff that makes everything run so smoothly. Every staff member that we encountered from the welcome center staff, the adorable owner that we saw gardening on a few visits, to our awesome venue coordinator, Brenda...we felt taken care of through the whole process. Planning a wedding is a huge undertaking and I was expecting to still have to be in "planning mode" on our wedding day, but truly all I had to do was show up and enjoy. Brenda and the rest of the amazing staff made sure everything went seamlessly so I could celebrate the day with family and friends. We are so thankful for the memories we made at this special venue!

STUNNING location. The venue really made us feel magical on our wedding day and all our guests raved about it. Brenda was our coordinator and she was so responsive and organized. The day went so well, I've been reliving it over and over!
I will say it's a fairly secluded location. Charlevoix was essentially a destination wedding for us since we don't live in Northern Michigan. This also makes other vendors a bit tricky to find, but Castle Farms provided us with a list of preferred vendors in the area so the whole planning process was made fairly easy! Highly recommend all around

My fairytale wedding came true. Castle farms was everything I could dream of and more! Booking during the COVID shutdown and not in the area, the staff did a video tour for us so we could book our dream venue. The staff was always in touch and responsive when we had questions. We couldn't have asked for better service during the rehearsal and day of the wedding. Bryan and his assistant always made sure we had everything we needed. They were like fairy godparents! Nothing went unchecked, every detail was handled efficiently and professionally. As a bride, they made the day incredibly easy.

I was very happy with every aspect of this venue leading up to our wedding day. The communication was stellar, the venue is gorgeous and very well kept. On our wedding day, I was a little upset with the fact that I could NOT find my assigned coordinator anywhere due to the fact she was in our ceremony space doing the thing that I asked to be done the day prior. I felt this could’ve been done either after our rehearsal the day before our wedding or the morning of, before my wedding party and vendors started arriving considering we couldn’t even get there until 2 hours after the coordinator arrived on site. I saw more of her assistant than I saw of her. I also hated how rushed everything felt because of 3 other weddings that were taking place. We had to share photo op spots and we weren’t told about any of this prior to booking with them. I actually found out this is the way things were done through another vendor. I do recommend them because at the end of the day my wedding was still beautiful and things ran smoothly for the most part.

Hi Shauna,
I wanted to say thank you again for sharing your special day with us at Castle...
Farms. I loved getting to know you and learning about your wedding the days leading up to your big day! I am sorry to hear that there were things you thought could have gone better, though we very much appreciate the feedback so that we can continually improve our couples’ experiences. With our historic property being open for visitors and other prospective couples to tour until we close (at least one hour before the earliest ceremony start time on any given date), I wanted to wait to put out your ceremony décor until closer to your contracted window of time in your ceremony space to limit the chance of any accidents. I had asked my Assistant to be more involved so that we could make sure she would be available as often as possible when I was unable to be. While each ceremony and reception space is private, we do have our common picture locations that are open to each couple to make sure they get the most out of the beautiful property. We do our best to explain this to couples ahead of time, but we are sorry if this was lost in the information provided upon reserving. Again, our Team really appreciates all of the feedback and I’m glad that you still had a beautiful wedding! If you have any other concerns please email manager@castlefarms.com so that we can connect with you directly. - Ryan

I'm so glad I found Castle Farms for my winter wedding! We loved all the extra Christmas decorations around the castle, everything was beautiful! I was also impressed by how clean it was, and the gorgeous places to take pictures- even with snow! The coordinators were on top of it, I didn't even hear anything from our caterer because they were taken care of as soon as they got to the venue. They were flexible and professional, from the first email. Castle Farms was a few hours away from most of our family, but the venue and city impressed us and our guests staying overnight. Worth it!

I had the best experience with them from the first meeting, to the tour, to the wine tasting, the coordination, and the day of was exceptional. I highly recommend!!!!

– The entire staff at Castle Farms ensured our day went perfectly and according to plan. Communication was always fast and efficient. Our Coordinator Olivia Pageau went above and beyond anything we could have expected of her role….She was so sweet! We forgot a picture for our memory table- she printed and laminated it for us during the reception. She also opened the giftshop after it was closed because my son wanted to purchase us a gift. Details that seemed so small, meant the world to us <3 She did not miss one single detail. If you want a stress-free wedding day- I would 100% book with Castle Farms!

Castle Farms is THE choice for a northern Michigan wedding venue. The ceremony/reception options are just down right gorgeous, all of our guests were blown away.
While planning, re-scheduling, re-planning a wedding due to a pandemic is an extremely stressful and emotional situation, Castle Farms employees made it stress-free. From the beginning, every employee we met with/talked with/endlessly e-mailed back and forth with was extremely helpful, professional and you could tell truly cared and wanted what's best for their couples. Our day-of-coordinator was thorough, so great to work with and made everything smooth on the wedding day.
I would highly suggest choosing Castle Farms as your venue!

The setting outdoors was beautiful. The castle did an incredible job making sure guests were comfortable with providing heaters. Jenna was irreplaceable and such an asset. She went above and beyond and I do not know what I would have done without her. She made everything run smoothly. Brittany was also very understanding and incredibly helpful with all the Covid changes that were thrown our way. The outdoor location could not be more perfect. Guests loved exploring the grounds. The pavilion and tent were decorated beautifully with lighting. It felt like a real fairytale.

We had the most beautiful, amazing wedding at Castle Farms. The whole staff was so helpful and organized, from our very first visit to the castle, to our last guest leaving the reception. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. Even with all of the insanity with COVID 19, Castle Farms worked with us to figure out solutions and to accommodate our ever-changing plans. We loved how careful the whole staff was to make sure that our wedding was safe and fun for everyone! To any couples who are considering Castle Farms for their wedding - DO IT! You will have the most experienced and helpful staff, and the most beautiful wedding. We were so happy with every step along the way.

The venue and grounds are breathtaking if you want an outdoor wedding. Angela Sauve was my venue coordinator and she was AMAZING; I recommend you request her.
The only thing I didn't love about the veue is how rushed everything felt because they give you a fairly limited time line for everything since they have so many weddings going on. But if you want a beautiful venue where you have help pulling every detail together; they will make it happen and make you feel totally special!

While we have not yet had our wedding at Castle Farms, we did participate in a virtual wine tasting to select our wines for the event. Given everything going on with COVID-19, the Castle was offering to send couples one of each of their bottles (for a price of course, but it was very reasonable) and then set up Zoom call where Dale Henning, venue coordinator and 1918 Cellars Tasting Room manager, walked us through the tasting of each wine.
The virtual appointment could not have gone better. Dale was very knowledgeable, and had answers for all of our questions, plus more guidance about things my fiancée and I had not even considered. He was very patient with us (my parents and grandmother joined us for the tasting, so naturally there was a lot of chatter!) and even offered to meet with us and do a cider tasting when we are finally able to visit the Castle in Person. The virtual event really ended up being so fun, and honestly was very convenient because we didn't even have to worry about traveling anywhere to get to the tasting or after having sipped 11 different wines!
We really appreciate how friendly everyone at the Castle has been so far (especially Dale!), and how hard they are working to find creative solutions to keep in touch with their couples during these times.
15/10 would definitely recommend doing a virtual wine tasting if you're a future couple at the Castle, and also just highly recommend working with Castle Farms in general...our experiences so far have been nothing short of fantastic.

We had our wedding at the Knight’s Courtyard at Castle Farms last July. We were actually lucky enough to win the military wedding giveaway, which meant a portion of our venue price was free (it would’ve been completely free except we had already paid ~half). CF was generous enough to let us enter the giveaway even though we had already decided to have our wedding there, and it was honestly a huge blessing. As we all know, weddings are so expensive—the giveaway allowed us to have the wedding of our dreams, since the CF cost was a hefty part of our budget. The team at CF was so professional and experienced and made the entire wedding process a breeze. They were very familiar with our wedding planner so we had a good line of communication with them. We even forgot (somehow!) our box of wedding cards at the end of the night, and the team at CF kept track of them and stored the box in their locked office until we came by the next day to pick them
up. It was such a small thing, but the gesture was very touching the next day & helped keep us carefree.
The Knight’s Castle & Courtyard was an absolutely UNBELIEVABLE place to get married. I’ve always said I would get married in a castle, but that’s hard to actually do in Michigan! Castle Farms made my wedding dreams come true!! We ended up being the only ones with a wedding on our holiday weekend in July so CF was even willing to change the rules for us. I asked them to turn the trains back on for our reception and they agreed to! We had the freedom to wander around the whole grounds and I think our guests really enjoyed it!
One of the only downsides of our time working with CF was the actually process of the giveaway. Thankfully they have changed their system this year—I believe—which was absolutely necessary. My husband and I were very dedicated to rallying our support systems to garner the votes to win the giveaway, but so were many other couples. This, plus the high stakes of the giveaway and the impact of social media, made for a very VERY stressful week of the giveaway. We agreed, along with all our friends who spent hours contacting people to vote for us, that a week-long giveaway was too long. It made the contest drag on and heightened the tensions among all the couples that were already present. While we are so thankful and honored to have won, it was a really really tough week of wedding planning. Even our reviews of our vendors have been delayed until recently because the giveaway was so stressful/dramatic that we needed some space from wedding planning. However, we recognize that a lot of this was outside of CF’s control and I believe they also learned from the situation. We are glad to see that the rules have changed this year and we can’t wait for another amazing military couple to win the wedding of their dreams at the beautiful Castle Farms.
Thank you to Castle Farms for coordinating a wonderful opportunity for our military community each year! We were so thankful to have CF donate their time and service to us, and we’re so grateful to them.

We got married at Castle Farms on December 30, 2019. It was a magical winter wedding and Castle Farms made the perfect location for it! Angela was our venue coordinator and was very responsive and helpful, especially day-of. Everything went very smoothly and the staff clearly has a lot of experience. We live in Metro Detroit but planning from a distance was no problem, since the staff was accessible by phone and email. Prices were reasonable and even before Angela was assigned to be our coordinator (two months before the wedding), it was easy to get any questions I had answered. We also got a discount for booking during our tour, so I recommend seeing the Castle last if it is one of your top choices. Everything was so easy through Castle Farms and many of our guests said it was one of the best weddings they’d been to. Thank you for making our big day the best of our lives so far!

Where to begin... Castle Farms was an absolutely breathtaking place to get married! We really could not have imagined our wedding any other way. They first take you on a tour of the whole Castle and give you a run down of all of the different rooms. They each have a unique style that can be altered any way that you like it. If you end up booking your wedding at the Castle, they allow you to come back when needed to take a look around. They have a team that constantly replies to emails and any questions that you may have. Closer to the wedding they will give you a set up packet where you put all of your wedding information and they also give you a coordinator. The coordinator will “coordinate” your vendors, your room setup, the ceremony, and so much more! We were able to get in the day before to set up (although not always an option depending on how booked they are). We were also given a “get ready room” for the bridesmaids and myself. The boys just got ready at a nearby hotel. They honestly have everything covered for you and make sure that the day goes as smoothly as possible. They have someone on site during your ceremony and reception. And if this isn’t enough to convince you to book Castle Farms, then just take a look at the photos! The venue is absolutely beautiful! We had been told by almost every wedding guest how much they loved the venue! I would not hesitate to book them if I had to do it over again!!

My husband and I are from opposite sides of Michigan, therefore we both had a very difficult time picking a venue. However, we knew Castle Farms was our perfect venue as soon as we saw it. There is something so surreal getting married in a castle, not only for the couple but also for the guests. For those who are nervous about a destination wedding, we say go for it! Our guests loved it, many of them made an extended vacation out of it! After booking the venue, we had the pleasure of working with Angela. She was absolutely fantastic throughout the entire process because she ensured the planning process, the rehearsal, and the day of our wedding was absolutely stress free. She was a joy to work with because she was professional, prepared, thoughtful, and extremely patient, since any questions, concerns, or wishes we had she took them in stride and made it work!!! Everyone we worked with was absolutely delightful! We highly recommend booking Castle Farms!!

Castle Farms is such an incredible wedding venue. Between the deep history and the fairytale aesthetics, the venue is incredibly unique. My husband and I held our wedding ceremony in the Knight's Courtyard, and our reception in the West Garden Room, and I cannot say enough good things about both locations. The venue is so beautiful within itself, very little decor is necessary. The venue coordinators made the process so smooth from the day we booked until the time we walked out the door after the wedding. I would absolutely recommend this venue to any and every bride. The pictures you can get alone are well worth the slightly raised venue expense.

Castle Farms is the best venue location!
At first we were concerned about the price, but with all that is included, is it definitely worth it! What made the experience the best, was our wedding coordinator! We got so lucky in getting Dale to be our coordinator. This man KNOWS what he is doing! He was so helpful, weeks before the wedding, the week of, the day before, and especially the day of the wedding! Dale kept everything on track, kept communication between the bride and groom going smoothly, as well as communication with the vendors and all the setup staff at the castle. He helped us with unexpected issues, such as needing glass cleaner and one more table top easel, handling getting us new table clothes when we accidentally got them soiled during set up, and keeping us informed about everything that was going on without stressing us out. He worked beautifully with all the vendors, was there throughout the day helping us if we needed it, and was only a text message away if he wasnt in the room with us. Around 9:30pm (ish, I didnt have a watch) Dale went home for the night, but left us with his assistant for the rest of the evening if we had any issues (which makes sense, seeing as he was there bright and early with us that morning when we arrived at 10am! And there was not much left that needed to be coordinated for the evening, the DJ had the end of the party handled)..
The venue itself is beautiful! It is also great that the guests are able to explore the grounds and play with the chess pieces in the fountain area, we had several guests that enjoyed this, getting a break from the loud music and dancing. The flowers and greenery throughout the venue are amazing in the summertime, and make the whole place feel more alive!
The one thing that disappointed us, was that the day of the wedding, the big fountain up front was not working, there was no water in it at all. which stunk because we wanted to get that as a focal point for some of our photos. But even without that, theres plenty on the grounds to get photos with.
I cannot stress enough how helpful our wedding coordinator Dale was! He made the whole experience easy, and relatively stress free! I'm so glad we were lucky and got Dale as our man, because he has a lot of experience, and was the most helpful, able to solve the random issues that came up as the day went on.
Castle Farms is definitely worth it! I would recommend this venue to anyone who is looking to get married! I wouldn't change it for anything!

Choosing Castle Farms as our wedding venue was one of the best decisions we've made! I felt like a true Queen getting married in a castle. Castle Farms is such a unique, beautiful venue with a lot of history. We loved the stone walls and high ceilings in the Knight's Castle and are glad we got to enjoy the beautiful Knight's Courtyard. Our guests were in awe when they saw the Castle. We were so fortunate to have Angela and Marissa as our Day of Coordinators. They were so helpful and easy to work with. Angela was quick to respond to all of my questions leading up to the big day and was onsite during set-up to help make sure everything was just how I wanted it. Marissa stayed till the end of our wedding to ensure everything was running smoothly. I would absolutely recommend Castle Farms!

We had such a phenomenal wedding at Castle Farms! Everything was perfect from the venue. The setup was exactly correct, the coordinator was 100% on top of organization the day of, they accommodated our small extra requests for outdoor lights, patio heaters, lounge furniture setup (which we rented from Taylor Rental). The location is just so beautiful, especially if the weather cooperates. In the event of rain, there is a great pavilion which I'm sure would provide for great photos as well! The biggest plus to Castle Farms however, is their flexibility to allow you to bring your own liquor, beer and caterer. Once you price out your wedding, realize how much expense you save by shopping around on catering and buying your own liquor. Save that huge markup and spend it on what actually gets you something (photographer, DJ, etc)! All-in-all great place to get married. The only critique I would have is that you aren't assigned a "specific" coordinator to work with until 1 month before. In reality, they should assign you someone to work closely with 3-6 months before to start really hashing out specific details. It was a bit hard to get a hold of someone via phone at times and there were a couple details that were muddled up 1 month before in terms of delivery times for the rental items. HOWEVER, Castle Farms came through and made it right and got everything worked out PERFECTLY. I would suggest to them though, that to prevent this in the future, they assign a coordinator earlier to work out the explicit details sooner. This is a great place to have your wedding with the flexibility to do exactly what you want on your day! Everyone will have a blast and the photo locations are top notch!

Our coordinator knew exactly how our ceremony would run and when we wanted to add in a few things she had no problem adjusting the schedule. The coordinators had an answer for every single question we asked. They made sure they did everything to make our day run smoothly, and it really did. There was not a single thing missed.

The staff was always helpful, courteous, knowledgeable, and prompt. I spoke with several members of their team throughout their well-organized process, and I always felt like I was in good hands! Planning with them was very low stress because of their friendly attitude. The location is gorgeous, and made for wonderful pictures! The day of, our Venue Coordinator Angela was so wonderful. Our day went off without a hitch, and I'm so grateful for everyone at Castle Farms for making it that way!
