I cannot say enough good things about this amazing wedding venue and it's staff! The venue itself is gorgeous. We wanted to have our ceremony and reception at one location and wanted it to be outdoors. Sunflower couldn't have been a more perfec...
t choice. I loved that even though we had one location for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception, they were each held at different beautiful spots on the property which provided some versatility.
The staff was fantastic as well. They assisted with every detail of our wedding, from ceremony coordination to table decor. I didn't feel a degree of stress or concern on my wedding day allowing me to enjoy every moment of it.
Thank you Sunflower team for making our wedding day so flawless and beautiful!
My daughter had her wedding reception at Sunflower Hill Farm. From the first time we stepped onto the property until the day of the wedding, the staff went out of their way to make everything perfect. The venue is beautiful. I highly recommend ...
Sunflower Hill Farm. Carla is amazing and made sure everything was the way we wanted.
Carla was phenomenal at Sunflower Hill Farm. We had quite the weather changing day of my daughters wedding. Carla made it seamless and kept us informed throughout the whole day as plans shifted. The wedding turned out gorgeous with no rain. T...
he chef at Sunflower was amazing - two weeks after the wedding people are still talking about the awesome food and venue. Consider Sunflower for your wedding - rain or shine - it is absolutely a gorgeous venue.
COULD. NOT. RECOMMEND. MORE.!!! Sunflower Hill Farm is the most stunning and unique wedding venue in the greater STL area. Each inch of the picturesque property provides a stunning backdrop for pictures on your big day. Carla (the day-of weddin...
g coordinator on site) helped us with all of our wedding planning needs each step of the way. Unfortunately it rained on our wedding day, but I felt 100% at ease knowing Carla + her team were in charge. Everything ran so smoothly and they accommodated all of our last minute changes due to the weather. Our guests are still raving about the beauty of the venue, the delicious food (catered by their onsite culinary team), and the friendly staff. You will NOT be disappointed by this venue!! An absolute dream come true!
Hands down, Sunflower Hill Farm is the perfect venue for a wedding. From the picturesque landscape which provides stunning backdrops for photos, to its modern amenities in a country setting, we could not have been happier to host friends and fa...
mily at SHF. Not only are the 360 views of the property amazing, but so is the staff. From start to finish, Carla and her team made our experience seamless. They were so easy to work with, and we knew from the first day we visited SHF that our experience was going to be special. And it was!
I can't even begin to express how happy I was with Sunflower Hill Farm. The venue is incredible, with all the amenities you could need on site. Carla and Quinn are both amazing coordinators, and they took care of EVERYTHING I could have ever ne...
eded. They made my day go so smoothly, and anticipated anything I could need. They were both so easy to communicate with, and they were always supportive and compassionate. I couldn't have asked for a better team, and a more beautiful venue. Everything went incredibly smoothly, and I got so many complements on how lovely the venue was. I would heartily recommend Sunflower Hill Farm for any event you have, or just to stop in the cafe for a visit to take in the beautiful atmosphere.
Sunflower Hill Farm was an exceptional wedding reception venue. The grounds and landscaping were meticulously and perfectly maintained and every detail was set perfectly. Carla and her staff were so helpful and attentive and definitely went ab...
ove and beyond to make sure there were no issues. There service was second to none and their problem solving and sweet gifts to us were truly one of a kind. I highly recommend this venue if you want to feel pampered and taken care of on your wedding day. Carla and her staff thought of everything and we can't thank them enough!
Where do we start!?! If you’re seeking some place unique, this is it! Right down to the free range chickens!
This amazing and beautiful venue is a gem less than 30 minutes from St Louis. Farm fresh and locally sourced foods, prepared with he...
art and care. Gorgeous gardens, amazing lodging for the wedding party and picture perfect settings for receptions and dinner that are a just-right blend of indoor and al fresco.
Our event coordinator, Carla Chitwood, worked diligently with us over our near year of planning. She gave personal attention to each detail to help ensure an event that our guests still rave about. Even our dance! Guests of all ages loved the s’mores at the three grand fire pits. Set in an old quarry on the property, the fire pit area makes you feel as if you’re at a rustic European villa. Carla also worked with our budget to provide a fabulous experience that didn’t break the bank.
We love Sunflower Hill and return as often as possible for meals and farm-to-table events.
If you’re looking for that special venue suitable for anytime of the year, Sunflower Hill is it! 💕❤️
Sunflower Hill Farm was truly our dream venue!! Carla and the team were so accommodating, flexible, and just a pleasure to work with. Carla was quick to respond to all my emails, questions, and concerns which made planning on my part smooth and...
low-stress without a planner or coordinator. She made a whole timeline of the day which I was able to give to my vendors so that everything was seamless the day of. I was most concerned about potential issues with transportation, as we hired shuttles for our guests, and Carla advised me on the best course of action and served as the point of contact with the drivers, which turned out perfect. We also wanted our dog in the ceremony and the SFH team helped handle him after his moment in the spotlight, and checked on him in his crate during the reception! In addition to the great service, I could go on about how stunning the property and the house is. So well done and even more beautiful in person. We are so appreciative for SFH and the team there for making our wedding a perfect dream come true ! 10/10 would recommend!!!
Sunflower Hill Farms is just a lovely place to get married - not only is the location beautiful but Carla and the staff were a pleasure to work with. First, they were very supportive and accommodating when my wife and I decided to postpone our ...
wedding from August 2020 to August 2021 due to COVID-19. They maintained constant communication with us and our vendors, and I can honestly say that on our wedding day we had nothing to worry about. A quick anecdote, we had a friend of ours tell me and my wife that Sunflower Hill was exactly she pictures her perfect wedding to look like one day. I think that says it all.
Sunflower Hill Farm is the best wedding venue!! The reception area, ceremony venue, and house are so beautiful. Karen, the owner, has created such a lovely space for all kinds of events. The staff is truly what sets Sunflower apart from all oth...
ers. From the very beginning of the planning process, Carla and Karen made me feel so secure in my decisions. They helped me through any questions I had. My mom and I became friends with them throughout the whole process. They treated us like family anytime we asked to walk through the property. When cover happened and couples started rescheduling their weddings, Carla called me right away to reserve a back up date. The day of my wedding, I was not worried about a thing because I knew that the staff at SHF would take care of it. I absolutely recommend this venue to anyone!
We used Sunflower Hill Farm for our wedding ceremony and reception. Everyone at SHF works so hard for their customers/events. We had an easy time with the planning thanks to their staff, and the day of we hardly had to worry about anything. The...
y maintained constant communication with us, so we never wondered what was going on. The detailed schedule a couple weeks before the wedding helped us hash out anything we had questions about. They were also available to contact our other vendors if we needed help. The venue is so beautiful, and the entire day went so smoothly despite the rain! We love this place and their staff, absolutely recommend SHF to everyone.
Book this venue as fast as you can! Our covid wedding planning changed from June 2020 to April 2021. Carla and everyone at Sunflower were so wonderful to work with. Not only did we change seasons, the day of the wedding there was horrible we...
ather and everything planned for outside became an indoor event. There was no stress in how the design and flow of the wedding proceeded. It could not have been more beautiful. I would also recommend renting the house for the night before your wedding as that made all the difference in the “day of” enjoyment.
The entire crew from landscaping, prep and day of servicing can not be outdone by any other wedding facility.
By the way, they may call this a barn but it’s not like any barn I ever saw on a farm! ;)
Wish there was a ranking higher than five stars.
Sunflower Hill Farms is the absolute perfect location to get married not only is the location beautiful the staff is amazing! I can’t thank SHF enough for all that they did! I even had a friend mention after attending our wedding “I want to get...
married again just so that I can get married here!” The venue is breathtaking and was the perfect location for my husband and I. We also are so excited that SHF has its café where we can visit throughout our years of marriage to be at the location we said “I DO”
This is a beautiful venue! The staff goes above and beyond making your special day memorable. Thanks to Carla, Rob, Quinn and the rest of the crew. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. The Koehneman's have built the perfect venue f...
or weddings and gatherings.
Most beautiful venue !!! We loved the staff and the overall atmosphere at Sunflower Hill Farm. The venue is amazing, and we had so many compliments on how beautiful the wedding was. Definitely would recommend.
Sunflower Hill Farm has a special place on our hearts. Planning a wedding during a global pandemic was not exactly what we had in mind. However, the crew at Sunflower Hill Farm was extremely flexible and supportive throughout the process. Their...
property is absolutely breathtaking. We chose their wedding weekend package, to be able to enjoy the venue for 3 days. It was easily the best decision we made! We felt like we were on vacation and now we have the sweetest memories to treasure forever! Throughout the process we have really grown to love the staff at Sunflower Hill Farm as family. We can’t thank them enough for putting their heart and souls into the work they do. We wouldn’t have changed one thing about our experience. Our wedding day was a DREAM because of them!
We had the most lovely wedding in September 2020. The weather was 70 and sunny, and SHF was the perfect venue for us. SO many guests were so impressed with how spacious it felt and how friendly the staff were. The outdoor ceremony space was gor...
geous, the indoor/outdoor combo for our actual dinner was incredible. I had guests say they wanted to come back to SHF on their own time and have a party there! Carla, the main coordinator that worked with us from day one was wonderful. She is kind, punctual, easy to work with, willing to listen to your ideas, and even during a pandemic- our wedding went so smoothly. Bonus- The “party cove” with three giant fire pits were a mega hit with my guests too! We had s’mores for the guests, and I can honestly say this venue will make your wedding dreams come true. The venue is private, but still easy to get to. It’s in Augusta, MO with tons of air bnbs for your guest to stay too! We also had our rehearsal dinner here and the food was SO good!!!! I will recommend this gorgeous place always.
We hosted our wedding ceremony and reception at Sunflower Hill Farm on a chilly and rainy November day. Although the weather wasn't great, the facility, accommodations, food, grounds, and staff were top notch. Quinn and the rest of their team w...
ent above and beyond to meet our needs and expectations. They accommodated various last-minute changes and requests due to weather and other things with ease. We could not recommend them enough as they were a true pleasure to work with throughout the entire booking process and event. Another great option they have is renting the entire property for the weekend, which includes a beautiful house. That really made our friends and family feel at home and made everything else so much easier having that home base.
The best and most beautiful venue you could ask for. Looking for venues was a little tough because I would see pictures of them and then be instantly disappointed by them in real life. Sunflower Hill was our last tour because it was my favorite...
that I had found and I was a little nervous I would be disappointed like the others. I am so happy that it was everything you see in the pictures and more. The staff there are so friendly, helpful and really go above and beyond to make sure you have the best experience. Getting married in 2020 was a little tricky because of everything going on but the venue was more than willing to let us have an intimate ceremony with just immediate family in the spring on our original date and then change our date to the fall with no hesitation. Both days were amazing and I honestly wish I could redo them both, not because anything went wrong but because I simply had the best wedding I could have asked for. We received SO many compliments about the venue and staff just like I knew we would. Carla, Quinn and the rest of the staff put up with so much and I am so thankful for everything they did. Be sure to book with Sunflower Hill Farm before they are all booked up because I know they will be!!
The absolute best venue we could of ever dreamed of using for our wedding. The owners, coordinator, and all employees are the kindest people! The space inside and out is absolutely stunning. Our guests couldn’t get over how amazing the venue wa...
s. It was fantastic to have everything in one location yet it felt like we had so many different areas to enjoy. Made for the easiest and stress free day. Can’t recommend enough!!! Even in 2020 our wedding was amazing because of Sunflower Hill Farm :)
I don't know where to begin because everything about Sunflower Hill Farm and their staff is absolutely amazing! We chose our wedding date just about 2 years before the actual date and they were so helpful answering all of our MANY questions thr...
oughout that entire time. Working with Carla and Rob could not have been any easier. They were very helpful and supportive, even when having to deal with COVID-19 in the weeks/months leading up to the wedding. The entire venue is absolutely stunning and it was everything that we were looking for. I can't tell you how many times our guests and even vendors told us that SHF is a hidden gem - they couldn't be more right! Carla, Rob, and the rest of the staff were extremely dedicated to helping make our dream wedding happen and go as smooth as possible. They worked with vendors directly if needed and made any changes necessary to make sure that it was all perfect for us. Everyone was so caring and genuine, it felt as though they were family. One of the things that really stuck out to us and meant a lot was that they made sure that not only the Bride and Groom were taken care of throughout the day but also our family and guests. They made sure to all that they could to make it the best day ever for all of those involved. Our wedding at Sunflower Hill Farm was everything that we could have imagined and hoped for. We are forever grateful for everyone at Sunflower Hill Farm. If you are looking for a wedding venue, we HIGHLY suggest booking at Sunflower Hill Farm- you will not regret it.

nd were both professional and personable throughout the entire process. It felt like they were just as dedicated to our wedding (and postponed celebration) as we were! Carla, Rob, and the whole team at SHF are genuinely wonderful and exactly the kind of people you want to be part of such an important day. Knowing their team was there to handle last-minute details, direct vendors, and ready to execute multiple backup plans in the unpredictable MO weather was such a gift and allowed us to focus on just enjoying our day. We are so grateful and would wholeheartedly recommend this venue to anyone!

We would recommend anyone and everyone to get married at Sunflower Hill Farm. Carla was such a joy to work with and the entire process from start to finish was stress-free and flawless. Our day was perfect and everything went not only exactly a...
s planned, but better. The venue is beautiful, the food is delicious, and the staff is excellent; organized, calm, and kind. Our guests raved about this venue being one of the best they have ever seen. We can't thank the entire SHF staff enough and hope you also choose to say "I Do" at this perfect venue.
To begin the process at Sunflower Hill Farm you meet with Carla who is the event coordinator. Upon arrival to the Farm , you are merely awe-struck and taken back by the beauty and serenity of the property. It is clearly visible that they have p...
oured their hearts, sweat, and money into ensuring this property is spectacular. After touring the grounds it was clear to my now wife Amy and I that this is where we wanted to get married. Rob, the owner's son, and Carla the event coordinator were easy to get ahold of, and were very attentive to any concerns or suggestions that we proposed. For the catering, they have an exclusive agreement with Chef Lee, he will provide a sampling menu accompanied with a wine tasting to tailor to your reception. Amy and I chose a seated dinner, and had the chicken bruschetta. I have never had a better wedding meal in my life. The chicken cut like it was pulled pork. They also offer varying packages for hors d'oeuvres and accompanying sides for the meal. As the day went on, your mind is going a thousand miles a minute to soak up every memory, however one that Amy and I keep coming back to is just how friendly the staff members at the farm were. Every employee had a smile on their face and said congratulations, or offered to get anything that Amy and I asked for. The smiles or pleasantries were not forced, they were genuinely enjoying their work, and that for me made a memorable impression.
To reiterate, the Sunflower Hill Farm has an amazing staff, most notable Rob (Karen's son, who helps with reception vendors, knows the grounds inside and out, helps with the logistics of running a smooth wedding), Carla the event coordinator, who was the main contact for contract questions, addendums, helps coordinate the tasting, and the final walk through of the venus.
We also felt a close connection with Karen (the owner), as she was previously a nurse, just like Amy and I. It was all the little special connections, and hard work that made our wedding day quite literally the best day of our old lives and new lives.
Amy and I highly recommend this venue and hope that couples can share the same amazing experience as we did, for it was nothing short of the perfect wedding day.

From the moment I saw this place I fell in love! Not only from the beauty of the event center, ceremony site and the house (gorgeous!!), but the staff and wedding coordinator Carla were a dream to work with. They were so attentive to our needs ...

Sunflower Hill Farm is BEAUTIFUL! We toured a handful of wedding venues and I wasn't finding anything I LOVED... until we visited Sunflower Hill Farm.

h and Chip and Joanna-like feel of the house made BEAUTIFUL pictures. The outdoor ceremony space is simple, but gorgeous. The barn was so perfect for our wedding. It had just enough room for all of our guests, including some space outside. When a GIANT wind gust came through during our reception, the barn doors were easily closed and the rain that followed was no problem.
We were able to use some of Sunflower Hill Farm's decorations and they even helped us clean up the day after the wedding. All of the staff was super helpful and friendly. They made sure we had everything we needed and kept promises when there were some changes in staff.
SHF is up and coming, so there were a few little details that were missed. But, I'm sure after this year SHF will be one of the top wedding venues in the St. Louis area. I could not have dreamed of getting married anywhere else. It was perfect.

Not only is the venue gorgeous but our guests were able to take full advantage of the farm from the ceremony site, bonfire pits, primary barn, beautiful brick verandas and yard space for games.
