We loved the venue, it had everything we were looking for. A beautiful venue, amazing wine, a beautiful place for our bridal party to stay on site for the weekend. Our day was truly beautiful. Jacque and Amanda did wonders to make everything flow, have our decor set up perfectly, communicating/assisting our vendors, and capturing how beautiful our day was. Early on in the planning we heard a bad review of the catering for Bella Terra and had expressed our concerns with the caterer and vendor. We had also received different quotes/menus from Elegant which made this process confusing. However, Bella Terra handed all of the remaining communication and the final product was excellent. The only true problem that had with our planning process was the lack of price transparency. The initial quote that we received was a pretty big jump from what the final price. We understand that decisions change through this process and we added/removed some options, but we were set from our first meeting despite our interest in the ceremony on site, open bar, cake cutting, and family style; which was not added in total to our quote until 1 month before. Payments kept getting bigger, estimates were never accurate with # of guests/what should be included vs not. Be sure that you are clear and keeping track of all of the add on's and requesting a updated quote/contract throughout. We did not have a correct estimate/contract until 2 weeks before the wedding... We were told throughout that we make payments on a credit card, but there will be a extra charge. We had used our debit acct for all previous payments but anticipated to make the final payment via credit card. It was a shock to learn that apparently we could not make the final payment via credit card? I asked them about this, if it was a misunderstanding and never had a clear answer as to why. We were lucky enough to be able to pull the final payment via ACH. However, if you do not have the cost of any upcharges in your account I have no idea what you would do. Expect upcharges, the cost per person is reasonable but everything is a la carte. We did opt for the open bar, which in reality was not necessary. When you host at a vineyard your guests do not think to order liquor unless you have a signature drink. Our day was truly beautiful and I will never forget it. But the stress and anxiety that built during the planning process could have been avoided if they had more time to iron our organization/ time for communication (they are also a business/restaurant though to just keep in mind). I will always look at our photos and just wish that day was longer. I cannot stop talking about how beautiful that day was, but I think going in and being sure to iron out the few speed bumps we had you will truly have a beautiful day.

Tiny Venue Big Farm Adventure was all that and more! The farm views are so beautiful and our wedding event had perfect fall weather - we couldn't have found a better place. Mark was very easy to work with and had some good local suggestions to complete our tiny wedding day. We loved that the tiny house was right there and we got to spend our first night, alone in the middle of this huge farm. The night sky and camp fire were magical. Small, so not for everyone and that made it even more special for us. Highly recommend.

Jason (owner), Michele (coordinator), and the whole staff went above and beyond to make our wedding day and weekend perfect. The Lodge is beautiful for every season of the year. We had our reception and ceremony there, and the package included a bridal suite, which was so big and perfect for getting ready. It was so nice to have everything in one place. They have different wedding packages and separate alcohol packages to choose from depending on your budget. Our bartender Julie was amazing! She worked with us for our signature drinks and went above and beyond! Our package also included a DJ which gave us one less thing to worry about while planning. Our DJ John Wiggins was awesome! He had everyone on the dance floor at all times and was great to communicate with. Jason also recommended the best caterer in the area and the food was excellent. I can’t thank Jason and Michelle enough for making our day so special. We will continue to come back and stay for years to come!
