A Perfect Outdoor Wedding venue
Who says you can't have fairytale weddings at affordable wedding venues?
Have the Nature -Inspired
Wedding of Your Dreams
Fire Pit: When the sun goes down out in the country, there's nothing like winding things down with a crackling fire on the river. Split, stacked firewood is complimentary, so just let us know what time you would like us to throw the match. Looking up at the night sky, there’s a great chance of ending your evening spotting a shooting star or two.
The Social Area: Located just outside the reception tent. Enjoy our yard games with your guests including cornhole, horseshoes, and bocce ball, or relax with a snack or beverage at one of the high-top tables.
Walking/Golf Cart Trails: You and your guests are welcome to experience our manicured trail system connected to the wedding site. The trail system winds through the forest through the river bluff basin and includes a variety of stunning photo ops along the Rush River. There's also good bet you'll come upon a cooler of the bride & groom's favorite beverages along the way.
The Restrooms: Our handicap-accessible restrooms are clean, comfortable, and fully stocked.
All That's included:
Planning: Your wedding, your way: personalize every element of your day to match your vision, or we can handle all the heavy lifting—orchestrating the perfect setup; managing the efficient breakdown and clean up.
Day-of-Coordination: We will work with your Day-of-Coordinator to ensure that everything goes according to your plan.
Bridal Suite: A private, air-conditioned suite for preparation and relaxation featuring a private bathroom, mirrors, and a 100" smart TV.
Groom’s Private Lounge: An exclusive, air-conditioned area equipped with bumper pool and a 100” TV, perfect for bonding with groomsmen and getting ready for the big event.
Sound for Your Ceremony: We provide a dedicated sound system including two microphones so your vows, speechs and chosen music will reach every guest to ensure a truly immersive experience.
Lighting: Pathway lights direct your way as you stroll along the river from the ceremony to the reception area.
Transportation: Adjacent parking with transport on our modern golf carts to the ceremony site and back. Your guests can leave their cars overnight if needed, as long as they are picked up by 10 AM the next day.
Beverage Experience: Elevate your reception with our premier beverage services including a curated wine list, champagne, or a stylish artisan beer truck.
Gourmet Catering: Design a menu that is distinctly "you." Chose form many of our vetted caterers.

Long ago, we realized that the greatest joy of owning this stunning property is sharing it with others. After celebrating our own wedding here—and watching close friends do the same—everyone who visited gave the same feedback: this place is unlike anywhere else. Inspired by their encouragement, we are thrilled to officially open our gates to the public for our very first season.
We look forward to offering you a wedding experience as deeply special and unforgettable as our own.
