Findind this venue was a blessing. It was perfect for our intimate wedding and reception. A romantic, relaxed elegant and fun ambiance. Phillys, the owner was remarkable. We were i...
mpressed by her professionalism and warm service. She was a godsend when our wedding planner completely disappeared on us the month prior our wedding. I am grateful for Phyllis support, wisdom, grace and guidance. We could not have found a better venue and person to work with. We had a blizzard and the venue staff assisted with everything and cleared the paths since the planner did not bring any of her “team.” Our event was a success. The wedding photos are beautiful. Thank you, Phyllis and The Gathering LLC staff!

I don’t even know where to start with this review besides WOW. I got married at The Gathering LLC and it was the best wedding planning decision I made. The Venue is gorgeous with ...
sunsets that are breathtaking and make for amazing pictures. The giant white barn where the receptions take place is beautifully decorated with golden toned lights, chandeliers and beautifully made Amish tables. Guests were in awe with how gorgeous the venue is. Phyllis, Melanie, and Amy were a dream to work with and Amy made sure our wedding day happened with ease with absolutely no problems or hiccups. The ladies at the Gathering were professional, caring, kind and overall just amazing at making sure your wedding day with them is perfect. The most gorgeous venue with a team of women that make you feel like family. Thank you Phyllis for everything you have done to provide the most perfect venue to get married at!

The Gathering is a gorgeous venue that has a lot to offer for a very reasonable price. The outdoor chapel is a perfect ceremony space. The barn is beautifully lit and decorated. We...
were concerned when we first booked the venue that no AC in the barn would be uncomfortable, but the fan system does an excellent job keeping the space cool. One of my favorite parts of booking the space was that for a reasonable additional fee, you can do an unlimited rental of the table and ceremony space decorations that the venue owns.
The venue owner's son Brandon is also an excellent DJ. He knows the venue space very well and did an excellent job keeping the music flowing all night. I highly recommend booking him, especially if you book this venue.
Wouldn’t have wanted my wedding to be anywhere else. I can’t say enough good words about this place. Phyllis and Amy were incredibly flexible while the weather was not ideal, and t...
hey truly made our day as special as it possibly could be. 5 stars doesn’t do justice.
This venue was gorgeous and Phyllis did a wonderful job at being flexible and accommodating to us during COVID. She and her helpers did everything they could to help us and make us...
feel important throughout the whole process. We couldn’t be happier on the choice me made to go with The Gathering for our wedding venue- highly recommend!!
This is the most beautiful wedding venue I have seen. They make everything so simple. Plus you can rent decor. It’s perfect.
