I could not recommend Crystal Creek Farm Venue enough!! We met with Barb for a tour when the venue was in its pre-opening phase. Even then, we knew that it was the place for us right away. The grounds are gorgeous, but the inside of the barn itself is what sold us. It's an open, bright space with plenty of natural lighting and gorgeous lighting inside once the sun goes down. The deck outside was the perfect spot for people to congregate when they were too hot from all of the dancing. We did not need a lot of decor because the inside was already beautiful. We ended up doing our ceremony there as well. When it turned out to be a surprisingly hot September day, the team helped move our ceremony from out in the hot the sun to under the gazebo. It was gorgeous. Throughout the entire year of planning, Barb and the team were incredibly helpful. Every question I had was answered, all of my worries and bridal stresses were calmed. They coordinated with our vendors and had the room set up perfectly. We are so happy and honored to have been within the first several of what we are sure will be many, many weddings to come.

WOULD GIVE 10 STARS IF WE COULD!!!
From the first meeting to our wedding day and even after, everything about Crystal Creek Farm was wonderful, perfect, EASY! Barb was fabulous from the moment we met her, kind, thoughtful, attentive. With all the stresses of planning a wedding, Barb and her staff were so helpful and accommodating, going out of their way to make our wedding day the “perfect day”
We were lucky enough to be the first ceremony on their gazebo with absolutely stunning scenery and enough sun and shade for either preference! Cocktail hour was spent out on the downstairs patio and in the lower level where we had a 6 foot charcuterie set up on their elegant tables, and an indoor/outdoor bar just steps away. We then went upstairs for dinner, totally seamless, and SO beautiful! Our guests really enjoyed having a cocktail on the upstairs outdoor patio before dancing the night away on the large dance floor. The barn is wonderfully quaint and intimate, even with over 150 guests.
The bridal suite was warm and inviting, a great space to put on makeup and style hair. They even had a beautiful basket full of last minute needs in case we forgot anything!
The whole team’s preparation was spot on and, the attention to detail couldn’t have been better.
Our guests couldn’t stop talking about how beautiful and picturesque the venue was.
Picking the venue was the most important decision we made regarding our wedding, and going with Crystal Creek Farm was the BEST decision we could have made!!! We truly can’t recommend them enough, go with Crystal Creek Farm, you will be SO glad you did!!!

STOP HERE...this is YOUR wedding venue!! 10/10 Recommend!!
The venue is a rustic barn that has been transformed into a refined space that is well equipped to fit 250+ people. The large windows allow for a bright and natural look during the day, while the twinkling lights above allow for a charming elegance at night. You know every nook of the barn was intentional, from the entry way with handicap access, to the spacious catering kitchen, to the outside/indoor downstair bar for cocktail hour.
Now, some of my favorite parts (and what truly make this venue unique). It has wide sliding barn doors that can open, which is perfect for bridal party walk-outs or for a magical scene of dancing under the stars. There is also the option for air conditioning during those hot summer nights, which our guests really appreciated. Next, the grounds are absolutely stunning! You can take all of your wedding photos here because the grounds are walkable and so diverse (multiple barns, ponds, towering trees, and the perfect location for sunset photos).
Lastly, I believe everyone should have the opportunity to get married at a venue where the people behind the scenes value and cherish marriage, and the team at Crystal Creek Farm truly do. Since the venue is family-owned and they are local, they can also provide valuable insight about the surrounding area and aid in finding other services you may need for your wedding. They went over and beyond to make our day special and I cannot express my gratitude enough.
