HammerSky Vineyards

ooden barn. So many guests told us it was the most beautiful wedding they had been to. We were married Oct 13 and the fall colors added to the beauty. We stayed at the farmhouse with a few of our wedding party which made it really special- not to mention convenient for pre - arranging decor before the big day. Melanie( the manager) was great to work with and responded quickly to all our needs. They were very easy to work with and flexible with a few of our requests. We served their Rose and Zinfandel during our reception and many of our guests enjoyed it so much they bought bottles. A highlight was a new tradition they started with us and will continue for each couple that gets married at HammerSky. A baby oak tree was given to us to plant on the property. We surprised our guests before dinner and planted it in the area we pre-selected. It was a cool and unique addition to our day! And we can't wait to go back each year and check on the progress of our "baby"! Don't hesitate to have your special day at this special vineyard! Thank you Doug, Melanie and crew - you made our wedding amazing and memorable!

with Melanie we were made to felt that the weekend we had planned with our family and friends was the most important event they would host. We fell in love with the rustic but elegant charm of the vineyard. Our friends loved the wine which paired great with the food and the relaxed yet elegant charm at HammerSky. We can't wait to visit annually around our wedding anniversary and come back to stay at the Farmhouse we have grown to love.

be aware of the obstacles and hoops we had to jump through for our day, which, in hindsight would have been enough to deter us from booking here to begin with. Please bare with us on this lengthy review; we think this is really important information if you are considering booking here. COMMUNCATION IS A NIGHTMARE and trust me, it will make your day way more stressful than you wish - even if you are as easy going as us!!!!! We had our wedding here on August 17, 2018 after initially visiting HammerSky in January 2018. The first day we arrived, we were met by Tanner (who no longer is employed at HammerSky much to our dismay), who graciously took us on a tour of the property and showed us pictures of prior events at the farmhouse and at the vineyard. From the pictures and the interactions we had with Tanner, we were over-the-moon excited to have our big day at this winery. Unfortunately, that was the last of our good customer services experiences…… The winery has had multiple staff overhauls since we first visited. This lead to complete confusion on packages, pricing and a total communication breakdown from every contact we had. Tanner was our main go-to contact initially, but we saw massive FAILURES from the owner and all the managers they have had since. To begin, we were looking to pay our initial deposit and did not want to send credit card information online after recently dealing with a fraud situation. We made this abundantly clear to the staff; we then received a call from the manager, Ron, who so eloquently told us that the owner, Doug, had written the credit card information down on a NAPKIN (yes, a NAPKIN) and had LOST the napkin… EVEN after we explicitly expressed our concern about making sure the transaction was done safely and smoothly. In that phone call with Ron, we were made aware of the tension the staff had with the owner (not what anyone wants to be clued in on during the excitement of wedding planning and venue booking). Ron THEN immediately emailed us WITH THE CREDIT CARD INFORMATION in an unsecured email after we had JUST (again!) reiterated that we did not want that sent electronically. SO frustrating and totally unprofessional. The next time we went to the venue we were met with a new manager, Kim (not the owner’s ex wife). She was agreeable; she wanted to help us clear up any confusion and tie up any loose ends. On our walk around with her, she told us several things would be at our disposal/included in our day. One of those things were wine glasses with the HammerSky logo on them. We only needed about 30; she assured us they’d be no problem. There were a few other things on that list which we ended up not needing or we disregarded… but when we went back a third time, Kim was no longer employed…….. **** PLEASE READ THE REST OF OUR REVIEW ON YELP AND THEIR FACEBOOK***

farmhouse and tasting room. There really is no other place like it, and we will forever have a place in our hearts for this special little slice of heaven on Earth. If you want a vineyard wedding, you really MUST check this place out. It's sheer perfection and was everything I ever dreamed of. Kim Hauck, hands down, deserves major praise for guiding me through what vendors to use and truly is the reason why planning our wedding from out of state didn't feel as cumbersome as it could have. She is a true gem in the wedding industry and so patient and giving of her time to ensure you feel comfortable in knowing your wedding will be executed exactly as you wish. Carol, the tasting room manager, also deserves credit for helping guide us through all the small details of the planning process, and without these two women, we know our wedding wouldn't have been as perfect. This place is something from the storybooks, and I just cannot say enough lovely things about this vineyard.
