The Lodge at River Valley Farm is amazing!! We had the wedding of our dreams here. It was the best day ever and would not have been the same without The Lodge and it’s incredible staff. All of the staff at the Lodge are so helpful through the whole process and went above and beyond! Every part of the property and the historic farmhouse is so beautiful. My bridesmaids and I stayed at the farmhouse the night before, it was perfect and so much fun! I highly recommend the Lodge at River Valley Farm for all of your events!
My husband and I could not have ask for a more perfect place to get married at! Not only is the venue absolutely stunning but the staff is such a joy to work with. Brooke and Karen went above and beyond to ensure that all the little details were perfect for us! We had the absolute best day of our lives and are so happy that we decided to go with The Lodge at River Valley Farm!
We had our wedding at The Loft on Isanogel on Aug 15, 2020. This was an awesome venue, and the staff was super great and helpful as well! Anna made sure everything was set up perfectly, especially for the outdoor ceremony. My husband and I had the wedding of our dreams and we received so many compliments on the venue as well. Definitely recommend for a wedding!
The Lodge was an amazing venue. The venue is beautiful. We had to reschedule our date due to Covid 19 and they were able to let us reschedule on a Sunday just a few months later. Anna was so helpful and quick to follow up with any questions we had. I would highly recommend.
Let me just begin with this is the most gorgeous venue I've ever seen! Hence why we picked it ;)
This was the first place we looked at and we both knew right away, despite looking at several others all over Indiana, that The Lodge was it! It has the perfect mix of rustic, farmhouse charm and elegance. From the barn pillars, to the gorgeous fireplace, how could you not fall in love? On top of that, the outdoor ceremony area is incredible. We needed a handicap accessible venue for my grandmother and not only is inside fit, but there's a pathway all the way to the pergola so she didn't have any problems. Which also helped for the ladies in heels! I also chose to stay in the farmhouse on the property the night before with my bridesmaids. (which is so perfect considering all but one were from out of town anyways!) The house is so cozy and inviting. It was great to just wake up there and get ready. We were able to run over and finishing decorating while the others were getting makeup and hair done and switch. It was also super convenient for the guys to have their own area out back. Far enough way they couldn't really see us, but close enough for our ring bearer and flower girl to run back and forth between parents.
Now for the staff! I can't even begin to explain how incredible these people are. From the one hundred million questions and emails I sent that were always answered immediately to letting us come to the venue so many times for even the littlest of details, I can't say enough. Anna always had the biggest smile whenever you were around her and was such a big help through the whole process. Even helping light/turn on candles the day of the wedding. She helped us down to every detail. It's also so awesome to have been able to borrow some of the venues props, this definitely saved us some money in the long run. I'm beyond grateful we found such an tremendous venue and staff to help us make our day perfect!
The staff at The Lodge at River Valley Farm is one of the biggest reasons my husband and I chose this beautiful wedding venue. That, along with the breathtaking indoor and outdoor ceremony spaces, made for the perfect day. Brooke and her team were very organized and prepared as we walked through the many details leading up to our big day. They offered great flexibility, helpful suggestions & quick responses to all of our questions throughout the process. As a part of the package, the Lodge offers a catalog of items to use (decor, centerpieces, catering materials, etc.) FREE of charge. We took full advantage of this and were able to have our dream look without breaking the bank.
The groom's cabin was recently renovated and is located just down the hill from the bridal house. The space is very nice, but a little cramped for our large wedding party with ten groomsmen plus family. The bridal house offered more than enough space to get ready and even has a separate space for stylists to setup for hair and makeup. Our reception was a dream come true with the white drapery, fireplace, and outdoor patio. We can't thank the Lodge enough for everything they did to help make our day so special!
Brooke, Karen, and her staff are amazing! They made sure that my day was just as beautiful as the location. I don't know what I would have done without them and the amazing options for dacor and table arrangements. They saved us a bundle and I don't have a basement full of decorations that I will never use again. LOL I am so grateful for everything that they did for me and highly highly recommend everyone that is planning a party or their big day, check out The Lodge!
The Lodge was the perfect wedding venue for my husband and myself. It was a little bit of country and rustic for my husband, but elegant and beautiful for me. Brooke at The Lodge was open to any questions throughout the wedding planning process and helped us through it smoothly. My bridesmaids and I also used the 'Slumber Party' option and stayed in the farmhouse the night before our wedding. We appreciated the beautiful setting for our wonderful day!
A beautiful setting and a fabulous facility. A small catering kitchen does not allow for cooking on site, but a familiar caterer can suggest dishes that work well here.
