The Ponds Venue is gorgeous! My husband was gone on leave when I toured with my mom and mother-in-law. Shelly made this place feel like home! We instantly booked. When my husband returned, we were easily able to set up another tour for him to come see the venue. We loved everything about the barn. From the beautiful live edge tables, classic wood-style interior, to the gorgeous ceremony site and acreage. One thing we decided we did not like, after the wedding, was the grooms shack being separated from the venue. Other than that, everything was perfect. Julie, her coordinator was amazing. Without hiring her, our day wouldn’t have been complete! Her bartending staff and shuttle staff is wonderful as well. Thank you for a beautiful day!
A wedding Nightmare.
If I could give a 0 I would!!
Do your research and read her comments back to the people who have reviewed her and the venue. You will hopefully see her for what she is…Shelly is a very horrible business owner, she is unorganized and a completely dishonest person. She has no business running a venue of this size. Multiple things went wrong with our wedding. But most importantly She ran out of liquor(of all kinds), All wine gone before dinner even started. She served warm beer the entire night. She ran out of spirits and juices. She literally had no cups at 9:30pm for water so they took away the water container!!! When she was called multiple times during the night she refused to pick up the phone. Bartenders refused to call her for us. They all knew this was a huge issue and they didn’t care at all!! It really should be a crime to collect money before events and they have no repercussions when they can’t give you what was promised. I could go on and on the multiple things that went wrong with our wedding. All I can say is book this venue at your own RISK and good LUCK if you do bc you’re going to need it. Also make sure to get a SOLID contract that she can’t wiggle her way out of. She will of course say you’ll get it at a later date. DO NOT IGNORE THE RED FLAGS because the space is so beautiful.
Shelly was wonderful to work with while planning our wedding. She was awesome available when I had any questions. The venue could not have been more perfect for our big day. Would defiantly recommend!
My family spent the morning cleaning the venue before the event, which should not have been necessary, and having to scrub the Chargers clear of dried food.
They ran out of toilet paper and trash bags, and then shorted me $20 on the deposit refund, with no explanation, possibly a trash can wasn’t emptied, which they had ok’d with them, because they didn’t have trash bags… and the communication and consistency was the worst I experienced with any vendor.
The building itself was beautiful, and we were thankful we got to use it for the day.
If I could change one thing about my day, it would be the stress of this particular venue, though beautiful, not worth it.
The minute we walked into The Ponds we fell in love with it. The barn itself is beautifully built and maintained and the views on the property are breathtaking. Shelly was very communicative and helpful throughout the whole planning process. We used Julie for the day of coordinator and she made our lives SOOO much easier that whole day. We have had so many people tell us how beautiful the venue was. They have tons of center pieces and decor options for use for your wedding. The bridal suite is beautiful and very spacious. We also added on the “shed” which is an extreme understatement for what it is…. The guys had such a good time before the wedding at the shed with the poker tables and the outdoor space. I couldn’t have asked for a better venue for my wedding.
Beautiful venue, loved being able to have both the ceremony and reception at the same spot! We even did our wedding photos there to!
The Ponds is the most beautiful, storybook setting around! Shelly was incredibly helpful and is literally an angel! The venue is jaw dropping and every guest was in awe!! From the ornate wooden tables, lights on ceiling, outdoor seating area, fire pit, plus the dressing area for the girls which our daughters h/m artists said they’ve never been in a more beautiful setup, and most of all the decorations and attention to detail that Shelly provides is IMPECCABLE! Don’t take my word for it, just visit and you’ll see what a gem this place is! The shuttle service to and from the church and hotel was a great help and everyone was so appreciative! Shelly was always available anytime I needed her or had questions! Worth every penny and I would have paid way more! That’s how impressive this piece of heaven is! My daughter had the fairytale wedding she always dreamed of and we could never thank Shelly enough!! If you haven’t booked this newly built elite barn venue yet, then do it now before it’s all booked up!!! ❤️❤️❤️ It’s so beautiful you’ll never want to leave!
My fiancé and I booked a tour online to view the ponds. We never got a confirmation so we ended up calling later in the week, and the owner switched the time of the tour. We drove an hour to view the venue and they did not show up. We called them 4 times and they never answered the phone. They never showed up to the venue the whole time we were there. We still have yet to hear a response back about today. Very disappointed and bothered and will be looking into other venues.
Had wedding at the beginning of March during a pandemic! Shelly the owner made planning it a breeze. The bartenders they use are awesome. Their alcohol selection was great. Beautiful place definitely recommended! I also recommend using her preferred vendors I found my own dj and was definitely not impressed with him. Go with her dj!
I can't even begin to express how amazing our wedding day experience was at The Ponds Venue. Owned by extremely nice people who only want to make your day special and breathtaking. All my guests couldn't stop talking about how beautiful the venue was both inside and out. I loved the venue because Shelly is very flexible and I was always afraid of getting a venue and being held down by a list of rules. However, you won't have that issue here (while still respecting her property of course). It also fits a lot of guests with nice indoor and outdoor chilling options so your guests aren't packed in like sardines. Overall, amazing venue and I recommend everyone at least go and see it! You'll fall in love as soon as you see the view when you drive in.
Honestly hands down The Ponds and Shelly saved my wedding during covid, and made it into the dream fairytale I always dreamt it would be. With 1 month to spare before my wedding date and having to find a new venue due to Covid restrictions, Shelly worked with me to get every thing worked out to have all of my vendors move venues; every little extra detail that I asked for they were willing to work with me. I was meant to find this venue, and I was meant to get married here. Truly my dream wedding because of The Ponds venue. Absolutely breathtaking any where you go on the property, from inside to out. I could not have asked for more caring, easy to work with, accommodating, truly amazing people like The Elliots to have working with me and helping me to make my wedding vision come to life on their property before it was even fully complete. If you want your dream wedding, and everything to run smoothly, and be truly one of a kind, The Ponds is where you should be. Forever grateful.
On my first walk through at the ponds I feel in love, I knew I had to have my reception here! Not only is it gorgeous, it was everything I ever dreamed of. Shelly and the family are so accommodating, and amazing to work with. They went above and beyond to make my reception perfect! All our guest still to this day rant and rave about how beautiful the venue was. I would recommend this venue to anyone!!!
Amazing service, venue and landscape! We couldn’t be happier with our wedding and the owners. We booked before it was built. I can only imagine what else this venue will offer in the future. Book your date while you can! Even more beautiful in person. Especially if you are lucky enough to see the sunset
The ponds has amazing customer service! Shelly the owner is so helpful and accommodating with every request! I HIGHLY recommend ❤️
This venue was beyond my expectations for my wedding a magical dream come true venue. Shelley is amazing to work with in helping every bride dream come true!
