We could not have asked for a more perfect wedding experience! From start to finish, Farmer Ed, our wedding coordinator Sarah, and DJ Kevin went above and beyond to make our day tr...
uly unforgettable.
Unlike some farms that simply convert to wedding venues that treat it as just another business, it is obvious that Peacock Road Family Farm is truly invested in making sure that the bride and groom leave their wedding day happy. After booking, we met with Ed and the staff three times to go over every detail and timeline. Each meeting gave us peace of mind, answered our questions, and ensured everything was planned to perfection.
One of the biggest highlights is their barn full of decorations. From vases and candles to ceremony drapes and signs, the options are endless. Sarah and her team handled all the setup and takedown, including our personal decorations, which made the day completely stress-free. At our final meeting, we even did a mock setup so we knew exactly how everything would look, and it was flawless.
Kevin, our DJ, attended the meetings as well, which made such a difference. He got to know us, understood the vibe we wanted, and curated the perfect soundtrack for cocktail hour, dinner, and the reception. The music flowed seamlessly and kept the energy exactly where we wanted it.
This venue is more than just a place to get married, it’s a team of people who truly care about making your day perfect. We cannot recommend them enough. And as a bonus, there are cool hairy cows and lots cats! It’s also a Christmas tree farm, so we’ll be able to come back year after year to cut down our own tree and relive the memories of our wedding day.

Honestly, I do not even know where to start with how AMAZING this venue is. Firstly, from day one, Lorry (the wedding coordinator) was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. She wasn’t extremely comm...
unicative, understanding, knowledgeable, kind, and just all around AMAZING. we met at the venue several times before the actual wedding to discuss plans and she was great!! Also, farmer ed is absolutely wonderful. He was there every step of the way. Even though he was busy around the farm, he made sure to take time to talk with us about any questions we could have. Next, the ceremony and reception area is absolutely GORGEOUS. Everyone kept saying (and is still saying) how our wedding was THE MOST beautiful wedding they have ever been to. I swear I could not have asked for a more beautiful wedding. It was absolutely perfect. Also, the DINNER. it is SO SO SO GOOD. When we were looking for venues at the beginning of our engagement, we saw reviews saying that Farmer Ed’s dinner was delicious and that they craved it. I know understand. The rolls were constantly discussed about how they were AMAZING. I had a friend who notoriously hated Mac and cheese, yet she COULD NOT GET ENOUGH OF THE MAC AND CHEESE! I’m telling you, the food was ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE. If you don’t book with this venue, you are missing out. They are the best venue ever and the workers are all amazing. I didn’t have to lift a finger on my wedding day because they set everything up, took everything down, fed us breakfast lunch and dinner, and provided us with water, soda, etc.! They discussed how they take pride in their work and that they want everyone to have an amazing time. You can tell when you step foot onto the farm that they truly care about their guests and the bride and groom. Additionally, we used Kevin as our DJ and he was AMAZING.
I promise, there is not a SINGLE bad thing I could say about this venue. Honestly, there isn’t even anything slightly negative to say. They were absolutely wonderful and i’m so thankful to have had such an amazing wedding at this venue.
Also, the pricing is REALLY GOOD. We have been quoted for 100$ a plate, and we paid LITERALLY NOWHERE NEAR THAT here for food that is 1000000000000000000x better than anything a banquet could make.
What’s better than smoked chicken and pork??? Nothing. The answer is always nothing.
Listen, if you don’t book here, you’re missing out on the most beautiful and fun wedding ever.

ed the most magical scene with her decorating. She was so amazing to work with, always had good tips, responded super quickly, and went out of her way to make sure the whole process and wedding events went perfectly. They have all their own decorations that you can use, but don't have to and we were able to go in and picked out what we liked. It saved us a ton of money in decorations. I gave Lorry inspiration of my vision and she made it come to life. They do all of the setup and tear down which is SO nice. They do their own catering and the food was awesome-got so many compliments on it! Their D.J., Kevin, was awesome and went out of his way to create special moments for us that we'll cherish forever. The venue is so gorgeous and there is so much unique, fun stuff for guests to do. They have a photo booth, outdoor cocktail area, yard games, petting farm, bonfire with stores for the guests at no extra charge. I could go on and on. We felt like the Peacock staff were part of our family and celebrating with us! Farmer Ed is truly passionate about what he does. The farm is also very inclusive of all guests and goes out of their way to make sure everyone feels comfortable and welcoming. The whole process was just amazing! I can't recommend them enough!

She communicated with us throughout the year and a half before the wedding and went above and beyond our expectations!

Everyone had an absolute blast and that was so important to us that were were able to provide a great time for all ages!

t a mostly hands-free wedding this is the place for you because they do pretty much everything! All we had to do was pick out decorations and give them the guest count, then they did all the rest. The food (BBQ meats and fixings) was out of this world good...my guests are still raving about it. We had guests of all ages and everyone enjoyed the outdoor games, farm animals and friendly cats roaming the property. But the best part truly was the service and warmth and thoughtfulness of the entire staff. We felt like we were in good hands the entire planning process and actual wedding day. These people know what they're doing and have weddings/events down to a science. Huge shout-out to Lorry for making sure everything ran smoothly and being so professional and kind to me, my husband and our families. So happy we booked this venue!

hey recommended all our vendors and every single one was perfect. The decor barn full of decor we could repurpose for our ceremony and reception was an especially great perk.
Our ceremony was perfect thanks to the help of the coordinator, Jessica. The amphitheater was a beautiful ceremony location. The post-ceremony carriage ride was a great time to take a breath placed perfectly in the center of all the excitement.
In addition, our guests all complimented the location, which managed to simultaneously seem intimate and personable while also having lots of room for guests to roam around. We loved the bonfire, outdoor bar, and lawn games.
We had Ed cater our food and it was the best we have had at any wedding, ever! The guests were amazed with the buffet.
Prior to the reception we were a bit worried about the event barn being too hot on a summer day, but with the fans on it was perfectly comfortable (August). Plus the guys and girls both were able to get ready in an air conditioned space which was nice.
We couldn't imagine having our wedding anywhere else! Thank you Peacock Road Family Farm staff for making our wedding vision a reality. We feel so lucky to have worked with such a dedicated and caring group of people. We absolutely recommend Peacock Family Farm to anyone and everyone!

Words cannot express my gratitude towards Peacock Road Family Farm. My husband and I got married there a couple of weeks ago and it was honestly the greatest day of my life.. larg...
ely due to Peacock. When we first met with Farmer Ed, he told us their whole goal was to ensure neither of us would have to lift a single finger on the day of our wedding- and they 1000% followed through with that. Farmer Ed and Jessica met with us MULTIPLE times to ensure they knew exactly what it was we wanted.. and went above and beyond to make that happen. Farmer Ed is genuinely one of the sweetest humans I have ever met and was so gracious to not only us, but our guests. Jessica is the coordinator that comes with this venue..and I cannot possible say enough about her. She was only ever a short email/call/text away from answering any and all questions we had. Every time I left a meeting with her I left feeling SO relieved and excited. She knew exactly what I wanted and how to make that a reality. On the day of.. they set up EVERYTHING and literally did it better than I could have possibly imagined. Not only were farmer Ed and Jessica great.. but the entire staff. Every single person there greeted and served you with a smile on their face.
Every single one of our guests commented on how beautiful everything was.. but the true star of the night was Farmer Ed’s BBQ. I had multiple people tell me it was the “Best wedding food they have ever had”, and I couldn’t agree more.
I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience and I think the world of everyone associated with Peacock Road Family Farm. You are all amazing people and THANK YOU so so much!!!!

If you are looking for a rustic style wedding venue, look no further. My husband and I were married at Peacock Road Family Farm 3 years ago to the day (September 26, 2015). To this...
day, we STILL have people telling us or our close loved ones that our wedding was the best wedding they have ever attended. The employees, the hospitality, the entire venue, the food, and the atmosphere was truly flawless. Everything being on one site was so accommodating for our guests, and the means of transportation around the farm added the best touch, especially for those who don’t get around easily. In between the ceremony there were countless activities for our guests to enjoy while we were doing photos so no one felt that “bored itch” while they waited for the reception to start. I could truly go on and on, but I hope the point is clear how wonderful this venue was and I encourage all brides-to-be (and their grooms, of course) to check Peacock Road out. You may just find it’s everything you’ve prayed for!

t. Farmer Ed and his staff are wonderful. I do not think I would have survived the stress of the wedding if it was not for our wonderful wedding planner, Katie. The food was excellent, we had many guests raving about how nice it was to have delicious BBQ instead of the traditional wedding dinner. The venue is a gorgeous backdrop for photos, and a very fun atmosphere for the guests. There are plenty of things to keep guests busy between the games, petting zoo, and beautiful scenery! Could not have asked for a more perfect place to start our lives together. The only downfall was a 10pm closing time due to the local ordinance, but we made up for it with an early ceremony, and trust me, we still had enough time for fun!

Each person that assisted us with making our wedding day what it was, made us feel as if we have been life long friends. They went above and beyond. The food is excellent, I am still craving the food. My husband and I are so thankful that we were able to have had our wedding at this beautiful family farm. Our wedding was very unique because of the opportunities that were given to us at this gorgeous family farm. We had a bonfire where friends and family roasted marshmellows, a caramel apple bar, fun lawn games and much more. If you are a couple that loves the outdoors, farms, animals, small towns, friendly staff, then you found the perfect farm. You will be blown away by what your wedding day will become.

If you are looking for a non-traditional outdoor venue to hold your wedding, Peacock Road Tree Farm is THE place to go. From the moment I met Diana and she gave me a tour, I knew ...
I had found my venue. They have multiple spaces to hold weddings of all sizes and now have a pavilion to hold receptions (I already had a reception location). We used their outdoor chapel and it was beautiful. Diana and Katie go the extra mile to get to know you and what you want in a ceremony. They will make sure that you have the ceremony of your dreams. Diana was also my officiant and did an excellent job. The highlight of the ceremony is when you use the chapel, they bring in guests by wagon and during the processional, the bride is brought to the chapel in a horse drawn buggy. I felt like a princess. I am still getting compliments about the ceremony. I highly recommend Peacock Road Tree Farm for weddings!!!
