Highly recommend! The Farm was a dream for our post elopement reception. Rustic, beautiful, clean and welcoming. We loved working with Ron and Rox. They were reassuring, easy to communicate with, kind and organized. The weather wasn't the best but it didn't matter because the reception area can be mostly closed in, has wonderful lighting and heaters. Using Laura + Crew with Buffalo Jump catering was the ultimate bonus as she comes with the venue booking. She crafted the best Caribbean themed menu that everyone continues to talk about!

The Coonamessett Farm was a wonderful wonderful location for my daughters wedding on Oct 15. Rox and Ron made sure the place was clean and ready and were on-hand to answer questions and ensure all went smoothly. We had 100 guests and everyone had a great time. The reasonable pricing allowed to go a little crazy with the flowers! J. Smith Floral went above and beyond our expections to add a beautiful accent to the lovely farm.

Beautiful farm and perfect spot for our wedding. We had been to the farm many times before for breakfast at Buffalo Jump on the weekends so when we saw they did weddings we knew this was our spot. Rox and Ron were just amazing to work with, so friendly and made sure the farm was absolutely beautiful for the day of the wedding with flowers growing in the fields and some in pots scattered around the ceremony area. Our guests loved roaming around the farm to visit the animals. The food was amazing too! Everything was just beautiful and felt like the most perfect backyard wedding. Would absolutely recommend!

The farm was beautiful and a perfect place for our low key wedding. Roxanna and Ron were very helpful and accomodating and really made everything look good for our day. Everyone loved having the space to spread out and it was very relaxing and just so beautiful. And so nice not to have to rent a tent, tables, chairs, etc. because they had all that already. They have an in-house caterer who we did not use, but will let you use other caterers for a small additional fee, and they let us have a live band and use the fire pit. It was exactly what we were looking for! The only negative thing was that there weren't really enough easily accessible bathrooms for our number of guests. The farm staff seemed to think it would be fine so we trusted them, but in hindsight I wish we had rented a couple of portapotties and put them in a convenient spot near the reception pavilion because the bathrooms were inconveniently located and the lines were long the whole time. But overall it was wonderful and I definitely recommend it as wedding venue. We had our ceremony there as well and it was beautiful. They have a nice arbor thing to stand under by the pond and it's a gorgeous spot.

My wife and I had our wedding at Coonamessett Farm last week and it was the perfect venue! We had a beautiful ceremony in front of Lucy's Garden followed by a live band reception in their main event space. The venue was perfect size for our 130 guests and people loved the ability to walk around the grounds during the cocktail hour to take pictures with the animals and gardens. Ron and Roxanne were incredibly helpful and easy to work with for preparation and coordination and we cannot thank them enough. We highly recommend Coonamessett Farm if you are looking for a casual outdoor venue with a beautiful atmosphere!

Could not have a better wedding venue. Ron and Roxanna are the sweetest and also very hilarious. They were very attentive whenever my husband and I stopped by for anything before the wedding. The farm is absolutely beautiful, and they set up the ceremony and reception exactly how we wanted. It was stunning!

We got married at Coonamessett Farm in June of this year and couldn't have been happier with our choice. We had both our ceremony and reception here. The farm was absolutely beautiful, Roxanna and Ron were very easy to work with, and the food from their in house caterer The Buffalo Jump was amazing. It was great that they had a covered Pavilion for the reception in case of bad weather, and the lights strung made for such a perfect vibe and beautiful pictures. It was an easy going, super fun and beautiful wedding just as we had imagined it. We would highly recommend them!

Hi!
My fiancé (now happily married husband!) Sam and I knew we wanted an outdoor wedding in a non-religious space to accomodate or large and colorful families, and the moment we stepped onto the farm we knew we had found the perfect place. It was a friendly, beautiful environment with plenty of outdoor space and a large, covered pavilion area where people could shelter in case of rain. Luckily for us, the weather was beautiful, so we didn't need to worry about that part in the end, but it was a great perk for those trying to prepare early for New England's unpredictable weather. The farm hands were very helpful, and set up all the chairs and tables for us ahead of time, decorated the space with their own flowers, and gave us plenty of advice and help throughout the entire process. We did a lot of the decorating and planning ourselves, but there was always someone there to offer a helping hand. We also used the caterers from their on-site cafe "The Buffalo Jump", which not only kept most of our planning in one place, but also made us a wonderful meal that our guests were still raving about a week later. In short, everything was perfect! The pavilion had great acoustics for our live band, the many animals across the farm were a big hit with the kids and adults alike (especially the bunnies and the alpacas), and there was plenty of space for our 90 or so guests to spread out and explore. We had both our ceremony and our reception there, and I would strongly suggest that anyone looking for a nice Cape Cod wedding that's not on a beach to come here.

An amazing wedding reception venue! We had easy access to the farm in the weeks and days before the event to help us plan, organize and set up. Ron and Roxanna were very helpful and fun to work with. Our guests loved having the gardens, animals and farm land to explore throughout the reception. The extra lawn space was ideal for yard games and kids to play. Wouldn't have changed a thing!!
