Angela and her team at Fairytale are absolutely incredible! From scheduling our initial tour of the venue through the end of our big day, they were nothing but supportive and professional. They helped us find other vendors, arranged all the gorgeous flowers, and pivoted gracefully when rain caused our outdoor ceremony to move inside the barn for the first time in their nine years of experience. Our wedding would not have been the incredible day that it was were it not for Fairytale. A huge thank you to Angela and her team! I would highly recommend them to anyone!

Having my wedding at Fairytale Gardens and Weddings was an absolute dream. Gloria the barn is absolutely stunning, the bridal suite is gorgeous, the groom’s area is perfect, and the nearby overlook is stunning for sunset pictures. They also offer “pay it forward” decorations to look through and use if you want.
Having Angela and her team to not only help on the day of but also throughout the entire planning process made sure that everything ran smoothly and that it was exactly the way I imagined it would be. The insanity meetings before the wedding were incredibly helpful because Angela knows all the little details that often get overlooked and she is able to help guide you through the planning process so that it’s not overwhelming. Angela also offers dinnerware and floral options as well which makes things so smooth instead of trying to coordinate different vendors and her options are beautiful.
As a Covid bride Angela was also very flexible and respectful when we had challenges that came up due to the pandemic.
I wholeheartedly recommend having your wedding here. With all the help, support, and options at Fairytale you can’t go wrong.

Angela and her team were boring but amazing! We changed our wedding date three times (thanks COVID) and Angela great about adapting to it. Throughout the whole process she made sure every little detail was planned out and helped me find the best vendors. The day of the wedding was perfect, she always made sure if there was any little hiccup that it was resolved so I didn’t have to worry. I have read reviews in the past saying Angela was a B word, but she is not. That’s her taking charge to make sure your day is perfect. The barn is perfect, the apple orchard you get married in is perfect, and the overlook you drive to only 5 minutes away is PERFECT. Angela is also a goddess in flower arrangements. I highly recommend Fairytale Gardens and Weddings!

Angel and her team were absolutely amazing. I got married here September of 2021 and it was way more above and beyond than I ever dreamed my wedding would be. Angela took care of pretty much everything, walked us through the whole thing, and was just so sweet and nice. By the end of the night she was even in tears because she grows a connection with the brides, grooms, and their families. I still stay in contact with her to this day because she made one of the most special days of my life something my husband and I will never forget. We also used her dinner wear package and she did our flowers. I can't tell you how helpful it was for her to offer those things, and the flowers were exactly what I pictured in my head.
If you are looking for a venue that feels welcoming and like home, this is the place. Angela goes above and beyond and offers more than any other venue we looked at. I will always recommend this venue and love promoting it so people can have as magical of a day as I did.
She even helped me pull off a huge surprise, not only to my husband, but to all my guests, setting up my keyboard and coordinating with the DJ so I could preform a song I had written.

Angela and her team are outstanding. Angela consistently offered her opinion and direction throughout the entire wedding process, from her initial "Insanity" meeting with the couple to review the critical details, all the way through the day-of. Angela's dedication to our wedding and attention to each and every detail ensured we would have a beautiful day. We did not have a wedding coordinator, and Angela went above and beyond to ensure every question was answered, every detail was covered.
Gloria (the Barn) is beautiful. The antique furniture, accent lights, chandelier, oriental rugs, all made for such an elegant experience surrounded by the rustic environment. Initially, the mismatched chairs and "eclectic" tableware drew me into to this venue. But the apple trees and ceremony area, the secluded romantic bridge and pond, the bridal suite and groom room - all are stunning spaces which were completely perfect for our day.
Fairytale was also our florist; and our flowers could not have been more perfect. Angela brainstormed with us to find the perfect rate to cut costs but still have exactly everything we wanted. Angela asked for my approval every step of the way (what ribbon do we want, how do we want to stems). We mentioned a beautiful sunflower from home which had just bloomed, and Angela even built that very flower into my bouquet.
This venue is beyond affordable, the staff is priceless. Get married here.

Not only is the venue great because of the staff, but the property is also stunning! The gardens are beautifully maintained, and Angela makes constant updates and renovations to the facilities!

This is by far the most magical place on earth! The name speaks for itself and I could not have been happier having my wedding anywhere else. On top of it being beautiful, it has history behind it, a top notch staff, and the best help and recommendations anyone could ask for. Angela and Macklyn were there for me and my husband every step of the way. After booking them we had a pre-wedding prep day, the winter before our wedding, where they helped point out every detail we were still missing and helped us prioritize what was important to ensure we didn’t miss anything for our special day. They had same-day coordination for the wedding with a team of people keeping us on our timeline and helping everything move along so we could enjoy this perfect day without worrying about any of the million little things that could possibly go wrong. And they did it in the middle of a pandemic no less! We got married at the gorgeous arbor behind the barn surrounded by a beautiful orchard, other trees, and nature. And the barn was the perfect place for our reception. There was even an outdoor bar area with little garden tables where we had yard games set up. These ladies even set up, with the photographer and videographer, to go out to an overlook, 5 min away, at sunset for the most perfect wedding pictures I have ever seen (I may be biased but I don’t usually like pictures of myself and the back drop is breathtaking). They made sure to come and grab us at shortly before sunset, making sure they knew when sunset was, to get these amazing shots. The bridal suite was well lit for hair and makeup and has a beautiful, classic, rustic setting; it was just perfect, like everything else about this place, to get ready with my bride tribe. I was only 3 months out from my wedding and still hadn’t booked a photographer and they immediately stopped the conversation and started messaging all their favorites to see who was available for my date, I booked a photographer that week! They also had all the best recommendations for song choices, setup, other vendors, etc., they’re pros. I was so nervous about planning my wedding and as someone who can be very uptight and let my anxiety get the best of me, they actually made the process so easy and I handled the process with way more ease than I ever imagined. It was a mini-destination wedding for my husband and I, living almost 3 hours away but it was more than worth it knowing we couldn’t have gotten such a beautiful place WITH such great service anywhere else. On top of that, this kind of venue normally costs a fortune! But I got the venue, same day coordination, several pre-wedding planning meetings, tables and chairs, chinaware, and access to their “pay-it-forward” attic for a FRACTION of the cost I’ve seen anywhere else. “Why?” you may ask... because these ladies LOVE LOVE LOVE what they do and they love weddings! It’s about the day to them and making it special! I wish I could get married every year just to go get married there over and over again. I cannot rave about this place enough. And the cherry on top was the best compliment of the night where a guest was overheard talking to someone that said the following, “I could not understand why they would travel ALL the way up here when there are so many other barns and outdoor venues so much closer to home that they could have gotten married at, but then I got here... and I get it now. It’s perfect!” And it was, storybook perfect... Fairtytale perfect!
