Everything was perfect! I didn't have to worry about a single detail. We could get in early to decorate and didn't have to clean up until the day after. Everything was thought of when this venue was built! Do not hesitate to book this for your wedding!

Olde Mill Venue is a must if you are looking for a beautiful rustic chic venue! My husband and I got married here in September of 2023, and the entire experience was amazing! We worked with Deanna and Phil and they were two of the sweetest people we have ever met! They were easy to coordinate with, fast to respond, and were able to answer all of my questions! The details they put into this beautiful venue are beyond measure, and I can promise you will not find them anywhere else! Olde Mill and their staff were beyond friendly, and made our wedding day the most special and perfect day! We highly recommend Olde Mill and can promise you will not be disappointed!

Deanna was absolutely amazing to work with from the second we arrived to tour the venue to the end of our big day. She was always available via phone and answered even when we called at later times. Her communication was spot on and she resolved any and all issues so quickly I can't even think of any that had come up.
We also stayed in the Olde Mill Lodge and we and our wedding party had an amazing time. The facilities were spotless and welcoming and there was plenty of space for everyone to get ready and socialize. We feared rain the day of the wedding and Deanna and her team were amazing about preparing us for the contingency plan (which we luckily didn't need)!
She and her team were SO supportive throughout the entire process, even standing by during rehearsal in case we needed to ask her anything or change anything about the set up. The ceremony went so smoothly, and our guests had no trouble navigating from the parking area to the ceremony area or from ceremony to reception hall.
I wish I could get married here all over again! This was the first venue we toured, and we were sold immediately. It couldn't have been more perfect for us.

Our experience with The Olde Mill Venue exceeded all of our expectations! We were blown away with all the help we received with the set up for our wedding. We were able to come in 3 days before the big day and set up, most places don’t allow till the day before or even day of. I highly recommend this venue to anyone who is looking.

Phil, Deanna, and Andy were so helpful in planning our reception venue! Due to Covid, we had to plan 3 different dates and with a month to spare, moved it north to the Olde Mill! They were fast to respond to my messages about questions I had about the venue, they allowed a walk through where they explain the whole lay out and what their venue supplied for the wedding day! The venue was exceptionally clean and well taken care of! They also have a fun outdoor space out back for yard games and to hang out on the back patio w/ overhead bar lights, so pretty! The venue has a rustic barn feel, but also a classy look. My favorite part of the venue is the elevated head table with the pergola overhead! I would highly recommend this venue due to its beauty and the owners are great people!

If you are looking for an absolutely stunning place to celebrate your special day, you found it. This venue is beautiful, welcoming, and perfect for larger weddings. My husband and I could not have asked for a better place. The venue owners are some of the kindest, most helpful people I have ever met and I am so grateful for all they did for us! This day was absolutely perfect and it’s all thanks to this wonderful place.
