We rented out Elderberry Farm Estates to host our rehearsal dinner and it was perfect! We had about 40 guests and were able to use the whole cafe and outdoor areas. Samantha went above and beyond to set up a tour of the space, hop on phone call...
s to make sure everything was in order and answer any questions, made sure the venue was cleaned, set up the space to accommodate the bar, food, and guests, and even helped us decorate the tables with flower bouquets! She made our rehearsal dinner so stress free! We rented linens, dinnerware, and flatware through Elderberry and had food delivered. Plus it was so fun to play yard games after dinner and have the space to mingle!

I stopped into the cafe today for a treat and catch up with a friend. The lemon square was so delicious. Looking forward to coming back in warmer weather to experience the outside area!
