About this vendor
The Meadow at Red Ridge Farm is a wedding venue located on the north shore of The Bay State in Salisbury, MA. Nestled on 60 acres of pasture, this cattle farm is rich in natural beauty, fresh produce, and cows. Family-owned and operated for 40 years, the ranch hosted its first wedding in 2011 when the owners’ daughter tied the knot in the cow field. It serves as a spectacular backdrop for your celebration while supporting community-led farming practices throughout Massachusetts and New Hampshire.
The Meadow at Red Ridge Farm has a vast pasture upon which you can host your ceremony and reception. The grounds abound with leafy enclaves where you can set up chairs and an altar and exchange your vows. The secluded nature of the property means that you and your guests will have the utmost privacy during your event. Here, you can relax under canopies of trees, enjoy drinks around the fire pit, and celebrate under the vast and starry sky. Large tents can also be erected for dining and dancing with loved ones late into the night.
Two generations of families have lovingly tended the Meadow at Red Ridge Farm and continues to give back to its community. The current owners are hoping to partner with preferred caterers to supply their own beef and pork at weddings hosted at the venue. In the meantime, they can recommend local and sustainable caterers, florists, photographers, transportation companies, accommodations, and more. Their hope is that you experience a breathtaking and romantic day that honors the unique connection you and your partner share.

We were recently married at the Meadow and it was the wedding of my dreams! Not only is the property absolutely stunning, but Stacie is so easy to work with. She and her husband ar...
e incredibly communicative, attentive, and kind. The love that they pour into their property and their animals is evident as soon as you arrive and that love is felt by everyone and spills over into the ceremony. I’ve received so many compliments from my guests that it was the most beautiful wedding they’ve ever been to. When Stacie saw me arrive, walking up to the venue in my wedding gown, she promptly grabbed her golf cart and drove me up to the ceremony herself. She was there every single moment that I needed her, but also allowed space for us to treat the property like it was our own too.
If you’re looking for a sign to book this venue, this is it!
Stacie and Mark- thank you thank you thank you! We hope to stay in touch!
This venue is absolutely perfect. It was affordable and allowed us to choose all our own vendors and DIY projects. It was exactly what we were looking for. The venue is simply stun...
ning and the cows were a hit! Stacey was great and super helpful to work with the whole time. On the day of event Stacey and Mark were very helpful when it rained. The only downside is that there is not a getting ready space or hiding space but that is ok the rest was ideal and exactly what we wanted.
Our wedding at The Meadow was such a special experience - I will never forget what an amazing day we had there!! This was first and only venue we looked at, actually. We just knew ...
it was the perfect rustic setting for us, and so close to home! We also had the freedom to choose our vendors and décor, which was very appealing to us.
The Meadow is located on Red Ridge Farm, a family-owned cattle farm. The farm owners, Stacie and Mark, were so kind, helpful, and easy to work with. And The Meadow is so beautiful and peaceful, a little slice of heaven. The ceremony space is located on grassy lawn overlooking a scenic cow grazing field. We had them call the cows over to feed on hay behind us during the ceremony and it was the cutest thing! The reception was under the tent and we rented the 2nd smaller tent as a space for our buffet setup. Our 130 guests took up most of the room under the main tent. The dance floor was just the right size for our crew and there are 3 well-maintained restrooms adjacent to the reception area. It was all so perfect!!
Our guests had such a wonderful time exploring the grounds, watching the cows, dancing, hanging by the campfire, and taking photos in the woods. We did have a contingency plan in case of rain, but we totally lucked out with perfect weather. I cannot recommend this wedding venue enough! It is truly a hidden gem in Salisbury and I would be delighted for the opportunity to come back as a wedding guest someday!
Absolutely THE BEST wedding venue around. I may be biased because we had the very BEST wedding day EVER!! I loved everything and every minute of my wedding at the farm. Stacie is j...
ust amazing to work with and made sure everything was just right. The grounds, the animals, the bathrooms, everything was beyond my expectations. We are so happy we got married at The Meadow at Red Ridge Farm and we recommend the farm to anyone looking for that perfect place.
Stacie was amazing to work with- extremely responsive, kind, helpful, and overall just such a positive energy to be around (everyone on the farm was!). The farm itself was such a ...
dream- the goats are a hoot, the cows were adorable and the meadow was the perfect backdrop for our day (it was literally all everyone could talk about!) Even in the hottest part of summer (mid-August) the venue stayed plenty cool and comfortable. The brand new bar installation was a very classy addition to the tent as well- I am thrilled we got to take advantage of that! Another plus- Some of our guests commented that the bathrooms at our venue were cleaner and nicer smelling than most indoor venues they have been at for weddings. Overall, I would do it all over again a thousand times. It was an amazing day and I'm so glad the farm was part of it!! Thank you Stacie and Red Ridge Farm!
I attended an event at the Meadow at Red Ridge Farm this past fall and Stacey did a fantastic job. The venue was perfect for a nice fall day. Everything was decorated beautifully, ...
the food was delicious, and Stacey made sure the event went off without a hitch. I would recommend this venue to any couple looking for a country feel for their wedding.

OVED it! Also a couple wooden 2 person swings which was a hit with my guests as well. The ceremony area has wooden logs as seating which is pretty nice and you won’t get splinters, promise! You have the choice for the cattle to be fed around ceremony time which was a nice backdrop and entertainment for the guests! Most importantly: bathrooms with running water! There are 3 bathrooms which were decent in size and real toilets and sinks, no porta potties!
We booked our venue with Stacie back in 2019. We were looking for a vendor that allowed a food truck and allowed our own dessert catering. Throughout the years (and a Pandemic), Stacie has been nothing but helpful! We went by the venue multiple times over the years to get an idea of decorations and Stacie was easy going, easy to contact, and always willing and open to us dropping by. She made this experience so painless and easy! They provided the tables, chairs, a couple big long tables and a couple wooden spools of varying sizes for drinks/whatever you wish to decorate on them. We used the big wooden spool for our s’mores table! 10/10 would recommend!!
We did a lot of searching before we found the Meadow at Red Ridge. Our vision was to find a venue that would allow us to hire our own vendors, enabling us to shape our wedding day ...
exactly as we envisioned it. This came after so many venues had laundry lists of rules for what we could do, and who we could work with. Stacie and Mark make the most beautiful venue available, and allow you to plan how you want to make it. Stacie and Mark have a list of recommended vendors (some of which we used) but also allow you to use others. This was so important to us, as we didn’t want a cookie cutter wedding. Stacie was so accommodating as we arranged multiple showings, planning sessions, and vendors. We can’t put into words how beautiful the property looked the day of our wedding, their pictures tell the stories we can’t. Stacie and Mark are so attentive and added so many little touches that were subtle, but certainly noticed. From dropping hay behind our backdrop to lure the cows before the ceremony, to lighting the fire once the sun set, Stacie and Mark were the perfect hosts to our celebration. For anyone looking for a picturesque farm venue to host their customized one-of-a-kind wedding, The Meadow at Red Ridge is the place for you!

ave us great recommendations for catering vendors, flowers, etc. The site is beautiful and the large tent comfortably fit our 15 tables for 140 guests. All of our guests commented on how unique and charming our wedding was and that was largely due to the venue. It was the first venue we saw and we didn't bother looking anywhere else. We also got some gorgeous photos with the beautiful fall foliage. Thank you!
