Dan LaFlamme was an outstanding wedding planner, who made our wedding absolutely magical-I would recommend him to anyone. Dan worked tirelessly to prepare for our wedding day, and for all of our family coming from Connecticut and Iowa. Dan made both the ceremony and reception work as smoothly as clockwork. Valley View Farm in November is just stunning..

Our wedding at Valley View Farm this past November was an absolute dream! From the moment we first visited, we knew it was the perfect place for our special day, and it exceeded every expectation. The setting is breathtaking, rustic yet elegant, with picturesque views that created the most incredible backdrop. Even months later, we’re still hearing about incredible the venue was.
What truly made our experience exceptional was Christina and the entire Valley View team. From the very beginning, Christina guided us through every step of the planning process, ensuring that no detail was overlooked. Whether it was months in advance or just weeks before the wedding, we always felt confident that everything was being handled with care and professionalism. On the day of, the team worked seamlessly behind the scenes, allowing us to be fully present and soak in every moment.
The in-house catering team also made the entire process effortless, helping us craft a menu that perfectly reflected our tastes. Every part of the farm to table meal blew us away—from the beautifully presented charcuterie to the delicious appetizers (highly recommend the sweet and sour meatballs!), the incredible entrées, and even the late-night grilled cheeses that were a huge hit. Every bite was perfect, and our guests could not stop raving about the food.
Their attention to detail and thoughtful touches made all the difference. From coordinating with vendors to making sure we had private moments to take it all in, they went above and beyond to make our day feel effortless and truly special.
If you’re looking for a stunning venue with an incredible team that will bring your vision to life, Valley View Farm is it. We are beyond grateful for everything they did to make our wedding unforgettable! We can’t wait to come back soon to visit again.

We cannot express enough how grateful we are that we chose to get married at Valley View Farm this past October. It was truly the best day of our lives. The entire staff from start to finish, made our wedding planning experience seamless and incredible. The owners, Suzy & David, are AMAZING people and their team is outstanding. Our Bar Manager, Thad, was incredible and crafted the BEST drink menu ever. Our Caterer, Alex, was excellent and made sure everything was executed perfectly. The fact that they allow you to create your own menu from start to finish down to every single ingredient is something we were SO excited for and allowed us to truly have the best menu EVER! Every team member on our wedding day was absolutely phenomenal and contributed to making our day perfection.
And finally, our wedding planner, Shannon, was truly incredible and the absolute best. Shannon made our dreams come true on our wedding day. From start to finish, her attention to detail, organization, and expertise exceeded all of our expectations. Shannon truly listened to our vision and helped bring it to life in the most beautiful way. We are so thankful we had Shannon by our sides every step of the way!
If you're looking for the absolute BEST wedding venue, a team who is not only skilled but genuinely passionate about making your wedding perfect, this is the venue for you!

My husband and I had the most absolutely beautiful and perfect wedding that we could have dreamed of on September 1st, 2024 - and we have Valley View Farm to thank for it all. From the stunning venue, to the beautiful grounds, to the wonderful owners Suzy and David, to ALL of the incredible staff and to the amazing Dan LaFlamme (our VVF wedding planner) - Valley View Farm is truly a special place.
We looked at many, many wedding venues but the moment we stepped foot at Valley View Farm we knew we finally found our place. Suzy, John and Dan were immediately so welcoming and made us feel at home.
Stephanie (our catering manager) and Thaddeus (our bar manager) were absolutely incredible - both so kind, patient and passionate about what they do. Both made sure that our vision was coming to life every step of the way. Our friends and family have not stopped raving at how it was one of the best wedding meals and drinks they have ever had.
Dan LaFlamme, our VVF wedding planner, is one in a million. We could not have asked for someone more perfect to join us during such a special period in our lives. He was there for us every single step of the way. He made us both feel calm and confident when our nerves were at their highest, and he truly let us be fully present in the day without a worry in the world.
It is completely evident how much care and passion goes into absolutely everything Valley View Farm does - from the big picture of the wedding day to every single little detail. Not only did VVF take great care of my husband and I, but they took great care of both of our families and all of our guests throughout the entire day.
We are forever grateful for finding Valley View Farm, and it becoming the place where we finally became husband and wife. We knew it was a special place - but for all of our friends and family to walk away from our day knowing that as well, means so, so much to us. Anyone looking for somewhere truly special for their wedding, look no further. Thank you, Valley View!

First and foremost, we want to thank Christina, Suzie, Dave, and the entire Valley View team for making our wedding day the most incredible and enjoyable day we could have ever imagined. From the moment we stepped foot on the farm, we knew this was a magical place. During our tour we immediately formed a connection with Christina, who thankfully later became our wedding planner. Words cannot begin to describe how helpful and thoughtful she was from the first day we met her. She was there with us every step of the way and made the entire wedding planning process as fun and stress free as possible. The catering staff, Bekah and Zofia, were so incredibly accommodating to all of our food wishes. My husband comes from a big Italian family so our one request was as much food as we could possibly think of and they did not disappoint. From giving us the ability to add multiple additional hor d’oeuvre options to our cocktail hour, to the implementation of a custom pasta course, they were more than willing to do it all. Our family absolutely raved about the food and has continued to remind us of how exceptional it was. The staff members were so attentive and kind to our friends and family throughout the entire wedding day, making it an experience none of us will ever forget. Our wedding day truly would not have been as amazing, and gone so incredibly smoothly, without the work of every single member of the Valley View team. From the very first day we toured the farm, to our wedding day, and all of the days in between, the Valley View staff was committed to providing us with an experience that was beyond imaginable. Each individual staff member's ability and commitment to perfect the fine details of our wedding night was an exemplary testament of Valley View Farm and how well their team operates. It is evident how much love and hard work goes into making Valley View Farm the breathtaking place that it is and we could not have imagined getting married anywhere else. We are forever grateful for this extraordinary place and can not wait to come back and visit!

I’m not even sure how to put into words how amazing our experience was with Valley View Farm. The moment I came across VVF online I could tell that it was special and visiting the farm made us fall in love even more. The staff was always so helpful, friendly and communicative. Shannon is an amazing wedding planner and we truly could not have done it without her. Thaddeus was so helpful in planning all of our bar needs and the guests loved our signature drinks. Christina and Oscar were also so helpful and Suzy and David (the owners) were so sweet and friendly every time we saw them.
Our guests could not stop raving about Valley View on our wedding day and even in the weeks after the wedding. Everyone absolutely loved the food and many said it was the best wedding food they ever had. Cassie and Zofia with the catering team were amazing at bringing our food dreams to life. Our guests were obsessed with the uniqueness of the farm and the details that made it special like the horses, the beautiful barn and the family style food.
During wedding planning you are often warned that small things will go wrong and you just need to brush it off. I can truly say that nothing went wrong (or at least nothing that made it to me or my husbands awareness!) and the day really went off without a hitch. I completely attribute this to the organization, professionalism and amazing planning by the Valley View staff. I would not change a thing about our wedding and can’t wait to go back to visit in the future!

We got married in October of this year and it was truly the wedding of our dreams! Valley View Farm is beautiful. It matched our vibe perfectly with its blend of rustic charm and chic elegance. The grounds are sprawling and gorgeous. It felt like a fairytale setting. We were lucky with the weather, but even if it was a downpour, it would have been the perfect day. The team at VVF are so organized, so attentive, and so talented!!!
Our planner Dan went above and beyond our expectations. We knew we were in good hands from the first meeting. And no stone was left unturned. Our parents and wedding party were also so grateful for Dan and his guidance in the leadup & day-of. He’s nothing short of a superhero!
The food was incredible, and we were so happy to provide our guests a farm-to-table meal…a nice change of pace from the standard fare guests get at most weddings. Zofia, Bekah and the rest of the catering team did an amazing job and we really enjoyed collaborating together on building the menu that reflected our favorite foods.
Our guests were also so pleased with the bar service. My husband and I had a blast choosing our signature cocktails with the bar manager Thaddeus. We had a moderate amount of guests (of not-so moderate drinkers) and no one was left wanting.
Everyone left the wedding satisfied on all fronts and we’re still hearing from guests about how it was one of (if not THE) best wedding they’ve been to— and it’s all because of VVF and their whole team.

I cannot explain how amazing it was to work with the staff at VVF. From the moment we toured the farm, we were greeted by the owners Suzy and David and ended up talking to David for close to 2 hours after our tour. After that, we knew that there was no where else we would get married. They were people who were genuine and weren't just there to take your money (which we had felt from other venues we toured). From the moment the planning process started, Christina our planner was there to answer every question and created an outline that was so detailed we barely had to do anything besides the "big stuff". It was easy to work with all the staff (bar, catering, etc) and everyone was very knowledgeable. They were responsive with any emails or texts that were sent. Fast forward to our wedding, all of our guest had told us it was the best food they have had at a wedding in a long time, as well as how beautiful and attentive the staff was. We could not have had the wedding we did without all the help of Christina and all the staff at VVF. I will forever recommend them for anyone who is looking for the same vibe of a wedding as we had. We look forward to visiting in the future!

I don’t even know how I could pack every single incredible detail of our wedding at Valley View into one review. As soon as we visited Valley View, my husband and I knew this was a special place. Each gorgeous area, like the Love Nest, the ceremony space, and the reception barn, had its own unique design and energy. From the beginning, the team made our wedding planning as smooth as possible, offering tons of advice and support for every single aspect. The day of our wedding, my husband and I were able to completely relax and enjoy the day, because we knew the entire Valley View team could handle everything. They were so involved in our planning that they knew exactly how to implement all our special elements. And they did! Multiple wedding guests told me the food at VVF was the best wedding food they've ever tasted! Stephanie, the head of catering, and Zofia, our day-of catering head, worked with us so closely to develop a menu that reflected my husband’s and my favorite foods and the seasonal availability. Dan, our wedding planner, was truly the most incredible person, and I’m so glad we got to meet him through Valley View. He truly made our day and went above and beyond during the entire planning process. Valley View feels like a second home now, and I’m so glad we live close enough that we’ll be able to continue returning to the site of our perfect wedding day!

We selected Valley View Farm for our fall wedding and it was absolutely perfect! First off- all of the staff there were incredible. They were very accommodating, excellent with communication, as well as having impressive organization for wedding day planning. They are truly professionals. Our wedding planner was Christina and we honestly could not have gotten through the chaos of wedding planning without her! She was so organized and went over every last detail of our special day to make sure that it went exactly as we planned it. And, it did! Our wedding went off without a hitch, and weeks later, I still have multiple people complimenting me on how well she managed the day, as well as the rest of the staff! Everyone has mentioned how impressed they were with Christina and how she went above and beyond for our day! Everyone also keeps raving about the waiters/waitresses/and bar staff and how nice and efficient they were. Not to mention, their food is ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS! I honestly think about going to future food tasting events, simply because our experience at the first one was so amazing and the food was so good! Valley View takes wedding's to the next level. I have had multiple people tell us that our wedding was the best wedding they have ever attended, and that would not be possible without this beautiful farm location, wonderful staff catering to the event, and especially our life-saver Christina. Even behind the scenes, all the staff is amazing. Zofia and Bekah from catering accommodated our every need, especially for our vegan/gluten free friends! They met with us multiple times to make sure our menu was perfect! Oscar, who does a little bit of everything, was also absolutely amazing. Not only is he just an all-around great guy, he helped us select our perfect signature drinks during our drink tasting! He also was a helping hand on wedding day and made sure all our needs were met. The owners Sue and David definitely create an atmosphere of kindness and choose their employees carefully, because every person there is so wonderful. Sue and David themselves are very kind. I feel like the people at Valley View make you feel at home. And that is exactly the kind of warm, intimate environment we were looking for when selecting a venue. I 100% would recommend this venue to anyone I know. And we look forward to visiting in the future and going to get a few drinks at their Muse Cider Bar, where they make their own delicious cider! Thank you to everyone at VVF that made our wedding the most special day of our lives!! :)

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Dan and the team at Valley View Farm, and I truly can’t imagine a better experience. Valley View Farm was the first venue we toured, and Dan was the first coordinator we met. We fell in love instantly! Dan is not only an incredible person but also incredibly talented at what he does. His ability to make the entire wedding planning process so simple and as stress-free as possible was a gift. What could have been overwhelming, especially for someone like me who isn’t a fan of planning, became one of our favorite parts of the journey.
By the end of our planning process, we were always greeted with hugs and excitement for our day from Dan and the owners. It felt like coming home. Dan became more like a friend, and I couldn’t be more grateful for everything he and the team did to make our wedding an unforgettable, perfect day. Valley View Farm will forever hold a special place in our hearts, and we had the wedding of our dreams thanks to them.
Thank you, Dan, and all of Valley View Farm!

What an absolute joy to work with Valley View Farm for our wedding!! Our planner Christina was extraordinary. She made us feel so taken care of every step of the way. Her communication was impeccable, as was her organization capacity. Plus she’s just an incredibly cool person who is so easy to be with — everyone in our families and wedding party loved her. Valley View offers the absolute best in the business for the rustic/elegant wedding vibe. The owners are fantastic people, and everyone there from the owners, staff, planners made us really feel like family. This place operates from the heart in every way — they are the real deal. They will make your special day go off without a hitch. I wish we could get married here all over again!!

My husband and I got married at Valley View this past August. We could not have asked for a better experience. Everyone was so attentive and responsive throughout the whole 20 month process. Particularly, our wedding planner Dan kept us organized and sane. My husband and I continue to think we could not have made it through without him. We had many many planning calls with Dan and the rest of the team, who always kept us on track and made sure that we were moving forward. They also helped us understand which decisions we needed to make and what they could take care of, which was a huge relief in the planning process.
The wedding day itself was perfect. Both of the "getting-ready spaces" were excellent. The bridesmaids had a great time in the Baldwin Loft, and the groomsmen got to hang out at the Muse Cider Bar.
The venue has multiple options for the ceremony space. We chose the covered pavilion, which was beautiful.
The reception was amazing as well. The space was beautifully set up and decorated. Thad, the bar manager, and Zofia, the catering manager, were amazing to work with. We had many guests (including picky eaters and people who are not easily impressed) tell us that the food was not just the best wedding food they'd ever had, but some of the best food they'd had in a long time (especially the brisket). Thad worked with us to create delicious custom cocktails that the guests all very much enjoyed. And the outdoor firepits on the patio were a huge hit with our guests.
Having our wedding at Valley View was the best decision we made in the whole planning process. Dan, Thad, Zofia, and the owners, Suzy and David, really made us feel like part of the family.

We had the absolute pleasure of getting married at Valley View Farm in June of 2024, and we cannot recommend it enough! From start to finish, the experience was seamless and stress-free. The venue itself is breathtaking—the barn is both rustic and elegant, and the ceremony area is stunningly beautiful. It was truly the perfect setting for our wedding day.
The service at Valley View Farm is exceptional. Planning a wedding can be overwhelming, but Dan, our planner, made everything so much easier. He was on top of every little detail and ensured that everything ran smoothly... Even going so far as to bustle my very stubborn dress with a fork… All of our guests raved about how helpful and organized he was throughout the day. Dan’s professionalism and calm demeanor relieved so much of the stress that comes with planning such a big event. We genuinely couldn’t have done it without him!
And the food—wow! Every single dish was delicious. Our guests are still talking about how amazing the food was, from the appetizers to the main courses. Valley View Farm truly exceeded our expectations in every way.
If you’re looking for a wedding venue that combines natural beauty, impeccable service, and a fantastic team, Valley View Farm is it. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day!

I cannot say enough amazing things about Valley View Farms. It is the most incredible wedding venue. The venue speaks for its self, there are so many beautiful spaces that you get to utilize through out the day and amazing areas for beautiful photos! What makes this venue so special is the incredible team you get to work with. I have to give a huge shout out to Shannon our INCREDIBLE wedding planner. She kept us excited, organized and on track throughout the whole planning process and was a true superhero the day of the wedding. Everyone you work with at this venue is so kind and knowledgeable. They really make the process so easy and so much fun! They all go above and beyond to make your big day so special and make sure you are able to be in the moment. The FOOD and DRINKS are out of this world, our guests to this day are still raving about them. Our June 2024 wedding was above and beyond everything we could have expected. We love Valley View and recommend them to any couple looking for a spectacular wedding venue. We can’t wait to make a trip back and grab a Drink at MUSE cider bar!

What you see is what you get - and everything you see is absolutely amazing!! From the beautiful pavilion, expansive grounds, high-style love nest, fun-filled patio, adorable horses, and dreamy barn for the reception, this venue truly has it all. I looked at numerous venues in the greater Boston area when searching for my wedding. This was by far the most special, romantic, personal, and high-quality option compared to others I visited. While there are mandatory catering and bar vendors, these are incredible partners and work seamlessly with the Valley View Farm team. Everything was delicious, tailored to our tastes and allergies, and served professionally. We worked with Christina as our planner, and she was extremely organized and engaged throughout our experience. She made sure we got our tasks completed and was able to recommend local vendors that we enjoyed working with. Christina made sure that our wedding had personal touches and was sensitive to our personal and family dynamics throughout planning (including meeting with parents and quickly answering questions). Up to and on the day of, she made sure we were on schedule and that everything happened to plan. She was truly a joy to work with and we could not have done this without her! Every other team member we met at Valley View was kind, attentive, and a pleasure to work with. This was the best day of my life, and there is no way that could have happened without the support from the Valley View Farm team.

I rarely write recommendations, however, we wanted to share our experience of our daughter’s wedding at Valley View Farm.
From the moment we looked at Valley View Farm, we felt it would be the perfect place for our daughter’s wedding. We were not disappointed at all! This was all made possible with the support of our daughter’s wedding planner – Dan. Dan went above and beyond our expectations. Our daughter and her fiancé live on the west coast and Dan supported them through the wedding planning process for over 2 years.
From the rehearsal to the actual event, the venue was truly amazing. Every space on the property is well thought out, purposeful and was comfortable for our guests to enjoy. The attention to the smallest details, we felt, distinguishes this establishment from others. The hors d'oeuvre and dinner from Wheelhouse Catering was absolutely delicious. The bar service is of a high standard and was able to support our guests’ needs. Every detail was executed flawlessly from start to finish and was recognized by the wedding party, family, and friends, making the event a success. The vendors used from Valley View’s preferred vendor list provided a consistent high level of service. Shout outs to Wheelhouse Catering, Cara Totman Photography, Until We Wed (Florist), T Warner Artists (DJ and live music) and Nadia at Nadia’s Beauty Spot (Hair and Makeup). All performed at a very high professional level and delivered above expectations.
Thank You to Suzy and David for the creation of the beautiful venue and Dan for the countless hours and support on the day of the event. Well done by all!
Thank you for providing a memorable experience for our daughter and son-in-law.
Very Truly Yours,
Mother and Father of the Bride

We just had our wedding at Valley View Farm and it was the most perfect day we could have asked for. The farm property is big and beautiful, and offers a lot of options for how to use the space throughout the day depending on the weather and your preference. Every space, from the barn to the patio to the farmhouse we stayed in, to the gorgeous grounds, was so well designed and maintained. But the real heroes here are the people — the owners, Suzy and David, are incredibly nice and put a lot of heart into running the place, and every single staff member was kind, knowledgeable, and patient. Special shout-out to our wedding coordinator Christina, who was AMAZING to work with—both on the day, as well as the several months leading up. We recommend Valley View wholeheartedly and without any reservations.

Valley View Farm was the PERFECT venue for our fall wedding and far exceeded any expectations we had! We planned our wedding from out of state and the team at Valley View eased all of our fears and thought of everything. Our planner, Dan, and the rest of the amazing team, were so knowledgeable and experienced and gave us all the confidence in the world. Dan is the kind of planner who will go above and beyond to think of every last detail, make a plan B for all scenarios, and have you laughing and comfortable while you handle last minute day-of snafus. Even in an unexpected downpour on our wedding day, Dan made everything flow perfectly and no one would ever have known how much we had to pivot. We had two amazing coordinators as well who helped cover every last detail at our wedding. The bar and catering team were phenomenal and the food was AMAZING. We got so many compliments after the wedding, people still talk about it.
We truly had the best day of our lives and Valley View Farm is the reason we were able to just focus on getting married and the love we have for each other. We would recommend Valley View Farm to anyone and everyone looking for a venue!

We LOVE Valley View!! Our wedding was absolutely perfect and everyone we worked with was incredible. They handled everything flawlessly on the day of, letting my partner and I fully experience the moment, knowing everything would be taken care of. The last few months we have enjoyed many of our guests telling us it was their favorite wedding they have been to!
Everything leading up to the wedding was perfect too. We felt relaxed knowing we were in the hands of professionals, yet also enjoyed lots of leeway to customize everything to make it feel unique to our vision. The food, the decorations, the vibe - everything was perfect and amazing.
When it rained during our wedding, Valley View was prepared with umbrellas, and even towels to wipe off our shoes during the photoshoots. They seamlessly transitioned between the outdoor and indoor spaces as the weather changed, and we forgot to even be sad about the rain because we were having too much fun.
Also - I can't rave enough about our wedding planner, Shannon! We love Shannon! It felt like she could read our minds with how much she anticipated every need, both before and during the wedding. Best wedding planner in the world!
I just hope that some of our guests end up getting married at Valley View, because I would LOVE to go to another wedding at the best venue ever.

It’s been just shy of 5 months since our wedding (10/27/2023) at Valley View Farm in Haydenville and we’re still in awe! We could not have experienced a better day. The whole property is absolutely beautiful, from the location being set way back in its own little world, the ceremony barn, the cocktail hour space and the reception barn. Every little detail is noticed. We still are being asked where we got married because of how amazing it was. Every guest commented on how perfect it was. Thaddeus, the bar manager, was spot on with everything, especially crafting the best cocktails. Now to talk about the real star of the show, our coordinator / planner, Dan LaFlamme! There are not enough words of praise for how above and beyond Dan goes with every little detail. Dan made our planning a breeze and our vision become a reality. He eased any wedding day worries by being way ahead of our every thought to the point we didn’t even need to ask or think twice! And he did it all while making us laugh nonstop! His hard work and dedication made our wedding a dream come true. We wouldn’t change a single thing about Valley View and our wedding. Simply the best and a day we will smile about for the rest of our lives.

Wow, we cannot say enough good things about our experience with Valley View Farm, Dan LaFlamme, Suzy and David, and every single team member we interacted with throughout our wedding planning process. We are completely blown away at how welcoming, warm, thorough, detail-oriented this team is.
From the first moment we visited Valley View for the winter farm dinner, we felt at home and well taken care of. Suzy and David really took the time to get to know us and share about how special the Farm is to each of them. It was clear from the start how much of a family and community Valley View is.
Our wedding planner, Dan, and the Valley View Farm team made our wedding planning process fun and completely authentic to us. They were always available, kind, and easy to work with. We had multiple separate calls and in-person meetings with Dan, the catering team, and bar team, that made every detail unique to us.
We also appreciated their transparency and guidance through every step of the process. Our guests loved the food, family-style dinner service, drinks, and overall experience and ambience of the Farm.
The day of our wedding, Dan and his team went above and beyond to make sure that our every need was taken care of, even needs we didn’t even know we had! We especially appreciate how Dan and his team cared for and attended to our parents, grandparents, and wedding party.
Thank you so much to the Valley View Farm team for making our wedding day even more special and memorable than we could have even imagined for ourselves. We are so happy to forever be a part of the Valley View family.
Much love, Amy and Matt (January 20, 2024)

I cannot put into words what an absolutely incredible experience we had with having our wedding at VVF. Everything about this venue is perfect. From the moment my husband and I went on our first tour, to booking, going to the complimentary farm dinners, regular check ins with the staff all the way through wedding day, I simply could not have asked for a better team and place to have my dream wedding which they made come true. If you are considering having your wedding here, you will 100% not regret it. Our wedding planner Dan is absolute SAINT of a human and you are extremely lucky if you get to work with him. He became a good friend throughout the planning process as well and I miss him dearly to this day. He thought of everything we could have needed and was so helpful at all times. Anytime I had a question he was available to respond and help me through anything I had on my mind. The customer-centric mentality that this venue has is unmatched to any other venue I have heard about or experiences I have heard through others. They truly make the entire experience a breeze so that you can actually enjoy your wedding day and the days leading up to it! Our guests could not stop raving about the ambience, the food, and all the details that made our wedding day such an incredible day. Seriously if you are considering booking this venue please do it!!

My husband, Paul, and I got married at Valley View Farm on 09/03/2023 aka BEST DAY EVER. Our wedding planner, Dan, was a true hero. From the moment we did our tour in July of 2022 to the day of the wedding, he was our glue. I heard multiple times from people how relaxed I was. Brides, get yourself a Dan. He kept us on task and allowed us to be present and enjoy every moment of our day. At the end of the night, he orchestrated getting everything packed up and where it needed to be. The venue itself is GORGEOUS - the main barn with its bright natural light, dainty fairy lights and reclaimed wood was everything I was looking for. The Love Nest was probably my favorite spot, though, with all the vintage, antique touches. I walked in for that tour and within 15 minutes whispered to my Mom that we were in trouble because there were no checks in the con column of my list. Everything was very clearly explained and laid out in terms of catering and payments. They had excellent vendor suggestions for any areas where we needed something. I love that they offer tasting dinners to give couples a feel for how the wedding meal will pan out. And the food was out of this world. Stephanie & Sylvana were beyond patient planning out every little detail of our menu, noting who had allergies or restrictions. We had a smoked short rib that we still rave about. Thad was an absolute pleasure to work with for our bar planning. He even handled our slightly bizarre request to feature our ski boats on our signature cocktails sign. It was our wedding day, but we felt as though they treated the day as if it was THEIR wedding. Every detail was seen to and handled with the utmost care. If you're even a little on the fence, book yourself a tour and see for yourself what a gem this farm is. And maybe meet Molly & Dolly while you're there. Paul and I are already trying to figure out a time to go back and visit and swing by MUSE Cider bar.

Wow wow wow where do I even begin. Valley View Farm is hands down the absolute best place to get married. The attention to detail, communication and planning process is just exceptional. My husband and I got married at VVF in August of this year. Our wedding planer, Shannon is fantastic. She paid attention to every single detail of the planning process, and nothing was forgotten. Not to mention that she is incredibly kind, and a wonderful communicator. She even bustled my dress and put in my veil on our wedding day! The planning and organization doesn't stop until the second the wedding ends. Shannon was there for every moment of our special day, and made us feel extremely comfortable. We loved how the team at Valley View Farm felt like a family. Suzy and her team make this abundantly clear by hosting delicious tasting dinners several times a year, to popping by to watch our first look. We cant recommend this venue enough!

My wife and I got married here in July 2023 and we cannot say enough about how amazing the entire experience was, and our guests could not say enough about our wedding either - they are still talking about it! The entire Valley View Farm team is incredible, especially our planner Shannon. Everyone there is so personable and goes above and beyond to make sure your day is special to you and as stress-free as possible. Shannon, the catering team, the bar team, and everyone in between has every single detail worked out, so my wife and I did not have to worry about anything at all on our wedding day - we were able to truly enjoy our day and take it all in. The venue itself is breathtaking. There are so many beautiful spaces both inside and outside. And the food and drinks are INCREDIBLE. Many of our guests have said it was the best food they've ever had at a wedding. We couldn't be more grateful to have found this true gem of place and to have met the wonderful team there. Our day was exactly what we wanted, and I know it would not have been that way had we booked any other venue. We can't wait to go back and visit!

Book it!!! You're reading this because you are deciding if you want to book Valley View for your wedding - and I am here to tell you to do it!!! The location and property are gorgeous and the staff are fantastic at what they do. We felt so supported to bring our ideas to reality - from helping with vendor decisions and communication, ideating on a theme and designs, to having all the details under control. Don't let the cost throw you off - that covers all the awesome things they have to offer - no upcharging along the way for normal stuff like chairs or napkins (PS the decor is already stunning so you don't have to do much). They care about sustainability and the local community, especially with the DELICIOUS food, as well. I really can't say enough about Shannon (our wedding planner, a service that comes with your booking) who helped us have the most fantastic day. I doubt it would have been half as amazing without her. Working with her, Stephanie the catering manager, Thad the bar manager, and the whole staff to plan for over a year was easy and fun - and on the wedding day we saw them in action to make everything perfect. The owners even let us invite their farm dog, Rosie, and bought one of the horses, Penny, out to the field for us to take pictures with. I could go on about how they have literally thought of everything but really all you need to know is - if you can, you MUST book with Valley View!

Valley View far exceeded our expectations. We are forever grateful to every single person who was apart of making our special day magical. Just to mention a few - Shannon, Maggie, Alex, Thaddeus - and so many more that I am probably forgetting! The day of our wedding was stress and worry free because of the hard work and dedication from this amazing team. The morning after, all of our decor was packed into my car, and we didn’t have to lift a finger to clean, organize, or stress over clean up. It was the perfect venue and the perfect team. We could not recommend this beautiful venue enough.

Our experience from beginning to end was excellent. We couldn’t be happier with how everything went, every step of the way. The people, the place — all excellent and beyond our expectations. If you like a western Mass. farm/barn feel, you will love Valley View for your wedding. We used both on-property houses for two nights, and, on the day of the wedding, we used the Baldwin Loft (women) and Muse cider bar (men) to gather and prepare for the afternoon/evening pictures, ceremony, and reception. The owner Suzy is fantastic, and so is the planner Dan who handled it all for us. Dan thought of and did everything. With such expert care and attention by such a dedicated and experienced planner, and with such fantastic owners and day-of staff, we were able to relax and enjoy the entire wedding weekend at Valley View Farm.

We are almost 2 months out from our wedding and it was such a perfect, magical day. We got engaged more than 2 years ago and toured VVF with Dan in 2021. From the first time we met with him we knew the venue and the people were special. We live across the country and did our wedding planning all remotely. We couldn’t imagine a more helpful, flexible and accommodating planner to work with. Dan was always a text away and always offered times to meet that worked for us despite being 2 hours behind him meaning he was working late. We SO appreciated that. He was a phenomenal resource in all planning areas and happily jumped on phone calls when we were stuck and deciding between vendors. We got married off site and Dan offered to come to our rehearsal and act as the point person for the mass, which was great and so needed! Day of the wedding he was always right by our side checking in and ensuring all of needs were met while simultaneously running all the behind-scenes coordination. And when we had a last minute change of plans due to weather, he was outside with the amazing staff moving furniture and DJ equipment back inside out of the rain. We can’t imagine the day without Dan and the entire Valley View Farm staff. SO many of our guests took note of not only the beauty of the venue but Dan along with all VVF staff’s attention to detail, organization and kindness. We had the perfect day and so much of it was in part due to everyone at VVF!

Wow, just wow. We recently hosted our wedding at Valley View Farm, and words cannot describe how wonderful it was working with the entire VVF team from start to finish. Alex Kessler and Christina Sheils helped keep us on track throughout the planning process, and oversaw the day of logistics (which is no small feat, especially given that it rained). Wedding planning can be A LOT, but Alex and Christina made it manageable and enjoyable, and went above and beyond our expectations consistently. We are going to miss them...they are both gems.
The venue itself is gorgeous - naturally beautiful, and very well maintained. I love the story behind the property - the barns/pavillion were repurposed from nearby properties, and much of the material was reused for interior decorations (like the tables and chairs). They also offer so many decor options that you really don't need much for your big day. But if you decide to provide decorations for tablescapes and such (which I did), the VVF team helped set everything up after I explained my vision and they just killed it. I was so impressed, and it helped relieve that stress the day of. Set up and break down was so smooth, and required very little from us.
And then there's the food...the catering team blew us out of the water with what they put together. We heard from our guests that this was the best wedding and food they've experienced...ever! The process of putting the menu together was smooth and easy.
Main takeaway - the VVF team is a team of professional rockstars who deeply care about making your big day as stress-free and logistically smooth as possible. We are so grateful for everything they did for us and our guests, and we will certainly never forget it. <3

My wedding day at Valley View was without a doubt one of the happiest days of my life! Words don’t even begin to do the beautiful venue, impressive bar & catering team, delicious food & drinks, and (most of all) our planner, Dan, justice. Dan’s incredible organization, professionalism, attention to detail, and all around kindness throughout the process were unforgettable. He made August 5th a breeze and a joy for so many people. I can’t recommend Valley View and the entire team enough.

We got married in May 2023 and we had an amazing experience with Valley View. From the start of the planning process through to the wedding day, Valley View’s planning staff, Wheelhouse catering, and everyone in between were there to keep us on track and well-organized. We were re-assigned to our planner Shannon about 3 months before our wedding date after our previous planner moved on from her position. We were a bit nervous about how switching to a new planner that close to our wedding would be, but we couldn’t have been more lucky to be paired with Shannon. She was constantly available for any questions we had or ideas we wanted to run by her, and we could tell she genuinely cared about every little detail of our day. It completely down-poured all afternoon and evening on our wedding day, which could have caused some major additional stress on us. However, Shannon and her coordinators Maggie & Christina, along with Alex from Wheelhouse and the bar manager Thaddeus made it so that we had an amazing day and didn’t notice any last minute adjustments they may have made. They remained incredibly positive and kept our spirits high which gave us confidence that the day would go smoothly. We got tons of positive feedback from our guests specifically about how great Shannon was and how friendly and talented the bar & catering staff were. We also had multiple guests tell us the food from Wheelhouse was the best they’d ever had at a wedding. We couldn’t recommend Valley View Farm more to anyone considering it for their wedding.

My husband and I had a blast getting married at Valley View Farm, September of 2022! Dan LaFlamme was our wedding planner at the venue and we couldn’t have asked for a more organized or kind person to work with. He made planning the details easy and executing the event flawless.
We also had the privilege of working with Dan’s husband, Jeff (Jeffrey Rivkin Photography). Jeff did an amazing job capturing the special candid moments of our wedding. He was also very flexible with working with our son (16 months old at the time). He snapped a few beautiful photographs of him that I was extremely impressed with!
I also want to acknowledge the amazing food and service by Wheelhouse Catering. This was not your typical wedding food-fresh, local, creative and cooked to perfection! All of the guests commented that it was the best food at a wedding they’ve ever had! As someone with a culinary arts degree, I would 10/10 recommend Wheelhouse.
Anyone who books their future wedding with Valley View Farm will have the most incredible day they will never forget!

My husband and I got married this passed weekend 6/2/23 at Valley View Farm and we still are coming down from the incredible wedding high! If you are considering getting married at this gorgeous venue, it is undoubtedly the best decision you could make in your wedding planning process! The venue itself is absolutely breathtaking and every single person we came in contact with from the wonderful Dan LaFlamme the owners, Suzy and David, to Thaddeus, Zofia , Christina, Maggie, and the fabulous waitstaff and bartenders were absolutely exceptional!
We can’t say enough about our event coordinator Dan who was without a doubt a consummate professional, leading the team and guiding us from the very beginning over a year ago to the all too quick end of the wedding day celebration. He made the stressful planning process such a breeze and gave us honest and clear direction when needed and had every detail so thoroughly thought through and nailed down. He made us feel so calm and confident leading into the big day and it was truly a day we will remember for the rest of our lives! Every step of the way each member of the VVF team was accessible and always willing to help with any question, request or concern. Valley View Farm is a very very special place to host your big day and we truly wouldn’t have had it any other way!

My husband and I got married at Valley View this past weekend on 5.28.23 and I cannot say enough about it! From the moment we booked the venue, our amazing wedding planner Dan, and the rest of the Valley View team were there to guide us every step of the way. No detail was overlooked, no matter how small, and on the day of the wedding, they did such an amazing job of keeping us present in the moment, and not letting our wedding day rush past in a blur. It is very obvious everyone working at Valley View not only enjoys their job, but they’re also very good at it. We are so grateful we found and booked this amazing venue. Our wedding truly would not have been half of the day it was without Dan and the team at Valley View.
Our guests have not stopped raving about the amazing time they had, and I hope we will be lucky enough to attend many more weddings at the farm! We are really so thankful we found such a beautiful place to get married and that it gave us the chance to work with so many amazing people!
If there is one thing we could tell engaged couples to help them plan their perfect day, it would be to book this venue as fast as you can, you will truly be in the best hands.

We loved having our wedding at Valley View! Beside the obviously beautiful grounds and buildings, we loved:
- Having a super knowledgeable planner! We had no idea what to expect in the process and Shannon made sure we thought of everything and stayed on track.
- Delicious food. We loved creating a special menu and man did they deliver - truly delicious.
- Top notch staff. We didn’t have to think about logistics at all day of which was super important to us, letting us focus on our friends and family. They even shoveled when it snowed and showed our photographer around. They really know what they’re doing to run a smooth event.
Wouldn’t change a thing for our special day. Thanks VVF!

Got married at Valley View Farm on 4/22/23 and it was truly a perfect experience. I cannot emphasize enough how perfect it was.
Firstly, our wedding planner Alex is excellent at his job. Not only is he thoughtful, charismatic, and detail-oriented, he makes you feel like a member of the Valley View Family. He is such a wonderful human. He also has great taste.
Secondly, the venue is gorgeous. We wanted a farm wedding, and this place truly delivered. Regardless of the weather, it is absolutely stunning. So many great places for socializing (from the Muse Cider Bar to the patio to the reception area itself) and photos came out so great.
The food is absolutely outstanding. The venue values supporting local farmers/produce and their catering team is excellent. The drinks are also excellent.
12/10. Would recommend. You won't be sorry..

From the moment we first set foot to tour Valley View Farm, everyone at the farm made it feel like it was meant to be. Dan, our wedding planner, Suzy and David, the owners, and all the staff, from the kitchen to the bar, and everyone in between, supported us throughout every step of the way to help plan our wedding. When it came to the big day, we can truly say that it was seamless! You hear stories about wedding days being stressful and short-lived, but because of Dan and his team’s hard work and thoughtfulness, we were able to cherish each moment and trust that everything would fall into place perfectly. And it did! It didn’t feel rushed or overwhelming. Instead, we were able to able to celebrate the little moments where it was just us, and not miss a beat when it came to celebrating with family and friends. We cannot say enough great things about Dan:) He is someone special, who cared so deeply about our love story.

Valley View Farm will always hold a very special place in my heart. I had the honor of getting married here on December 4th, 2022 and it was one of the best days of my life.
From the moment I saw VVF's website, I was in love. We had our ceremony in the gorgeous pavilion that overlooked the rolling hills of Williamsburg. The reception hall was warm and welcoming, with more than enough space to host our ~130 guests. It was a December wedding, but no one felt the cold between the blankets provided and the wood burning, heated barn.
But more than the grounds, it is the staff that made our wedding magical. From the moment we met our wedding planner, Alex, I knew we were in good hands. He was extremely organized, thoughtful and honest. Our day-of coordinators and planner, Shannon, were just absolutely incredible. Shannon had to jump in to cover the day-of and she took on the challenge with ease and expertise. The bar manager, Thaddeus, was creative and fun and made the BEST signature cocktails. And the catering? INCREDIBLE! Stephanie and Zofia were absolute rockstars and really made our foodie vision come to life.
Some fast facts about why you need to choose VVF for your next event:
1. It is beautiful, serene, unique and special
2. Your catering menu is custom - no picking off of a list of tired, outdated and overused dishes
3. They make their own cider, maple syrup and other ingredients to feature on your menu
4. Local sustainability and support is at the heart of what VVF does
5. Guests will be talking about the food for a long time after
6. The staff is considerate, professional and accommodating
That is enough rambling - I just really love VVF. I look forward to coming back for more events, the cider bar and to visit the ponies very soon!

Valley View was truly the best ever. Dan was our wedding planner and helped us from start to finish. Dan is kind, funny, and thoughtful - all qualities that I would want not only in my wedding planner but in a human that I would spend months and months alongside, thinking through one of the biggest days of my life. Dan is wonderfully detail-oriented, organized, and a seasoned pro, which positioned him perfectly to help newbs like us figure out all of the wedding things.
Valley View itself is a gorgeous venue that speaks for itself. In my view, it is a one-stop shop for the ultimate elevated-barn wedding. The space feels fancy enough for an event (think tall ceilings, exposed beams, gleaming wood floors, tasteful draping and lights...) but down-to-earth enough to feel cozy, homey... The food at Wheelhouse Catering (the in-house catering option at Valley View) was absolutely delicious. It was absolutely one of the best meals I've had and guests were raving.
All in all, I whole-heartedly recommend this venue. Our wedding was the perfect day because of all things Valley View. The space, the food, and of course, the support (Dan- he just rocks). I wish I could relive it all again minute for minute.

Valley View Farms is truly a beautiful and special venue! The staff seem to love working there and interact like family. We met Dan who gave us a virtual tour of the property and was patient and kind as he answered all our questions. We liked what we saw virtually and decided to make the hours-long drive the following weekend to see it in person. The venue is stunning—a restored barn that is beautifully polished and has wonderful lighting. Suzy gave us the in-person tour and inserted fun tidbits about the history of the farm while walking us through what a wedding tends to look like at VVF. We were thoroughly impressed by the care the team seems to take in order to give each couple the wedding of their dreams; emphasizing the unique dinner and bar menus specially crafted per event, the attention to detail in decor and in the day-of coordination.
While we didn’t wind up selecting VVF as the venue for our wedding weekend, this was in spite of all the amazing merits offered by the venue and the team and ultimately came down to the town of Northampton not having the feel we wanted for the rest of the weekend. We would have loved working with this team and trust they would have helped us create a magical wedding day. Thank you to VVF!

Valley View was the PERFECT venue for our August 2022 wedding. Valley View was the first venue that we toured and we booked it on the drive home. The location, outdoor pavilion, "getting ready areas" and reception space are absolutely beautiful. Dan, our wedding coordinator, made the big day seamless. From the moment we toured, Dan was extremely organized and calm while bringing laughter and fun to the planning process. The entire planning process was extremely personal, from the schedule of the big day to the personalized meal and drinks provided. Suzy and David, the owners, made us feel as though we were part of the family from the first time we met them. Every guest had nothing but positive things to say, raving about the venue , atmosphere, staff, food and drinks. The day was absolutely perfect and everything we could've dreamed of and more. If you are considering booking Valley View for your wedding, book it as soon as possible and get ready for an incredible experience!

We could not be happier that we shared the most special day of our lives with Valley View Farm. The Farm is absolutely beautiful and made for unforgettable wedding photos. We knew from the minute we toured the venue that we wanted to get married here, and throughout our entire wedding planning process and wedding day we felt so lucky to have the support through our Wedding Planner Dan. Dan made us feel at ease and helped us to remember every little detail for our big day. I could not have imagined planning out my wedding without his support.
Thaddeus, the Bar Manager, was so accommodating and helpful as well.
Valley View made us feel that they truly cared for us as people versus just another couple. We could not recommend Valley View and Dan any more. It is hard to put into words exactly just how grateful we are for this wonderful venue and team!

It's hard to put into words just how special this venue is. It is stunning, private and the members of the team are some of the kindest and most genuine people we’ve met. From the start, we could tell they had our best interest at heart, and wanted to make our wedding day so special for us. The owners always remembered us when we saw them, and brought so much personality and warmth to the venue. Everyone was so pleasant to work with, and the food was absolutely delicious!! We were able to create our own menu with their talented catering team, and signature drinks with the bar staff. We also opted for the late night taco truck, and let me tell you, it did not disappoint (20/10 recommend). The Valley View team went above and beyond for us to make our wedding the wedding of our dreams. A special shout out to the most incredible coordinator, Dan Laflamme, for going above and beyond from the start. Not only was Dan there for both of us every step of the way leading up to the wedding, but made sure absolutely everything was taken care of, day of.. He made sure everything stayed on track with time schedules, that we actually ate our dinner, and most importantly made sure that we had the best time. Valley View and all of the team members will always have a special place in our hearts. We highly recommend this venue!! Thank you!!!! Love, The Millers 🙂

Where do I begin with our love and appreciation of Valley View Farm? My husband and I had our wedding at VVF on 10/22/22. It was an absolute dream. From the very beginning of the wedding process to the last moments on the dance floor we had an incredible experience. Working with Dan was a dream come true. He walked us through every step, guiding us with his knowledge through each decision. With an experience that can feel so overwhelming, we felt totally at ease through this process. From choosing our menu, to signature drinks we always knew we were in great hands. The day of our wedding was truly magical. The beauty of the farm speaks for itself. With Dan by my side I was able to fully enjoy every moment of our special day. If something did go wrong I had no idea, because he had already solved the problem! Our guests continue to rave about the amazing experience they had at VVF. My only complaint is that it’s over! 10/10 recommend!!

Valley View Farm honestly made our dream a reality. Every single person we interacted with was so kind and thoughtful and they truly treated our family like their own family. We owe EVERYTHING to Dan, he made our day absolutely seamless and was a joy to work with. Dan knew all of the vendors we were working with and he took care of everything. We were not stressed about a single thing the day of the wedding. In the days leading up to the big day, we also had so much comfort in knowing that Dan was in charge. His support was truly unmatched. As a venue, the food was delicious (we got to make our own menu!), the views and space were spectacular and Western Mass is the best place in the world.

Valley View Farm is an absolutely beautiful location. The staff at the farm go above and beyond to make the wedding day as smooth as possible. In house catering made it very easy to plan a wonderful reception, with locally sourced ingredients. Dan LaFlamme was our wedding coordinator, and we can not express how truly great he was throughout the entire process. He thought of every little detail to help us plan, and he easily managed the hiccups on the day of the wedding so we did not have to worry. You can't go wrong with choosing Valley View!

This was the best decision we ever made, and you should book them right now! All we have to say is SERVICE.. from the moment you meet the team, they are all about making your dream a reality. At first we were slightly sticker shocked, but then with all that they include, not to mention the white glove service and INCREDIBLE food and drink quality they supply, we did not regret one dollar spent here. Everything and everyone were so organized. They go above and beyond, scheduling meetings along the way, constantly checking in, and organizing all the outside vendors for you. They even recommend vendors and help find the right ones with you if you need it (found my incredible florist, photographer and DJ through them!) On top of it all, they even make their own house made maple syrup that we used for favors and they even handled that! Our wedding coordinator Dan was an ANGEL.. I don’t even know where to begin, but he was truly the best thing to ever happen to wedding planning, even from the moment we met him for a tour. From taking calls or texts at all hours of the day, giving advice on decors, vendors, and timelines, countless meetings with intricate notes, coordinating with all our vendors, to flawlessly executing our day, we will be forever grateful to him and the entire VVF staff. We even made the slogan “In Dan We Trust”, that’s how good he was.. It not only was the best day of our lives, but the best time planning it because of how easy they make it. We felt so prepared and at ease the day of, knowing they had it all under control, and did not have one hiccup. There’s not even thank you’s to them to give, but I hope anyone reading this highly considers booking, because I know you won’t regret it for one minute!

Valley View Farm is the BEST wedding venue out there! We knew from the moment we arrived for our first tour at the farm that it was the venue for us.
Besides the beauty of the venue, our planner, Teri was one of the main reasons we picked VVF. She was knowledgable, organized, kind, and incredibly responsive (as was all of the staff). The staff are welcoming and treat you as part of the VVF community. The planning process was effortless due to the tools and resources they provided. Over our 2 year planning process, the staff was always available to answer questions via email, phone, or in-person.
Teri worked with us through the planning process, and was also there on the day of our wedding. She worked with our vendors to make sure we stuck to our timeline and everything was in place. She was there from about 10:00am-midnight and did everything with a smile on her face. We did a first look before the ceremony and the train of my dress had a few grass marks on it. Teri and one of the day of coordinators scrubbed and blow dried my dress as we were lining up for the processional, and got all of the stains out. You won't get this kind of treatment anywhere else!
From the ceremony options, bridal suite, getting ready spaces, the outdoor patio, the barn, the food and everything in between, every detail of this venue is perfection and I would recommend it 10 out of 10 times.
VVF will always be one of our favorite places and we hope to continue visiting!

Booking Valley View Farm for our November 6, 2022 wedding was the absolute BEST decision! I fell in love with VVF ages ago and when it was time for us to choose our wedding venue, it was truly the only one that checked all of our boxes. We booked VVF in August of 2020, so we had a solid two years of planning. We worked with Teri, who to put it simply, is an absolute rock star. She was responsive, kind, helpful, and patient--oh so patient--with us as our vision for the day evolved throughout our planning. That goes for the entire VVF team as well. Thaddeus and the bar staff were incredibly helpful and made some really tasty drinks. Their knowledge when it came to planning our bar package was so valuable and they answered every question we threw their way. The catering team at Wheelhouse was amazing as well. Dakota and Jake really know their stuff and helped us build a menu that was true to us and delicious.
On the day of our wedding, VVF was pure perfection. Teri had helped us through our rehearsal and taken all of our decor the day before, so all we really had to do was show up. The VVF staff handled literally everything, and their attention to detail was incredible. (Someone whisked my husband's grandmother's seat cushion from the ceremony to her seat at the reception before she could even think to go back for it!) Their setup of our reception space was better than I ever could have imagined. They really thought of everything and needed so little direction! Maggie was another coordinator who helped run our day and she was a ray of sunshine. She and Teri kept me calm through some morning rain showers and worked with our photo and video teams to find the most opportune times and locations for shooting. We kept right in line with the schedule Teri had made for us and there really was a plan (and backup plan) for everything. By the end of the night, VVF's staff continued to keep everything running smoothly, making sure that all of our decor and remaining personal items made it back into our cars. All we had to do was hop on the bus and enjoy our after party, which was such a relief!
Valley View Farm and its staff made our wedding day absolutely incredible. Every single guest said that the location was stunning and that the staff was on top of everything. I really can't put into words how much joy we felt the entire day and how much gratitude we have for Valley View and the staff. Teri was the MVP of the day, we literally couldn't have done it without her. The amount of work she did behind the scenes coordinating with our vendors and making plans with the staff took so much pressure off us and made everything so easy. She provided us with so much love and encouragement through the entire process and we feel so lucky to be able to call her our friend. We are honored to be a part of the Valley View Farm family and look forward to visiting again soon! xoxo

Planning our wedding at Valley View Farm was a dream. We cannot speak more highly of the entire VVF team, especially our wonderful planner Teri!! Our wedding on 9/10/2022 was an incredible experience.
From the beginning, we knew we wanted to celebrate our wedding at the Farm. From the beautiful setting to the accommodating staff and planning model to the focus on local food, the entire experience aligned with our interests.
Upon booking our date, we began working with Teri to plan the day. She provided helpful insights and feedback about our decisions. She helped ease our fears and stresses for the nearly 2 years we planned.
During our wedding weekend, we stayed with our bridal party on-property, which was such a fun experience. We would highly recommend staying at the farm houses. The morning of the wedding, Teri and the team kept us on schedule while allowing for the day to flow comfortably. I still don't know if anything went "wrong" during the day because the team took care of EVERYTHING. The organization, set up, food, drinks and service were above and beyond our expectations. Not only did our guests have a great time, but we were truly able to enjoy every moment of the day.
I am so thankful to VVF for providing a memory that will last a lifetime. We cannot wait to return to the cider bar and farm dinners to reminisce about our perfect weekend. Thank you all for such a wonderful experience!

Book this venue immediately! Valley View Farm was the first and only wedding venue my fiancé and looked at I could not have asked for a better experience. From our first tour of the venue with Dan, to meeting at the farm and phone calls to finalize details, the process could not have been smoother.
It was the most perfect day and it all has to do with the team that works together and with you on your wedding day. Yes, the venue is beyond beautiful, but the people are what makes it so special and everyone notices!
The food, the suggested vendor list, the decorations they have on hand to borrow is unmatched. It truly was a day I wish I could relive over and over again.
Do not hesitate to book this venue-it is beyond!

Valley View Farm is pure magic!! Not only is the venue absolutely stunning, but the staff truly makes you feel like the only wedding on the calendar -- I'm not sure how they do it! Our wedding was 9/24/22 and Dan was our planner -- he is one of the most thoughtful, organized, attentive and deeply kind people we've ever met. He took our vision and sent it to the moon! No detail was spared, and above all else, he made our enjoyment and ease day-of the biggest priority. We didn't hire an outside wedding planner because we felt so confident in Dan and the team, which is rare of other venues. Thad & Emma [bar + catering managers] are also fantastic.. accommodating every dietary restriction and creating DELICIOUS menu options. We cannot say enough good things about our experience at VVF!! ps. 12/10 recommend the Baldwin Loft for getting ready!!

The whole Valley View team, all of the beautiful spaces, the delicious in house catering - I have only positive comments about this wedding venue!
Our wedding was in July 2022 with Dan as our Wedding Coordinator. The whole team was very communicative, and we had several separate planning calls with Dan himself, the catering team, and even the bar manager! Day of, the team took care of absolutely everything so we could be stress free.
My partner and I attended one of the quarterly dinners a few seasons before our wedding, in order to get a sense of the food and drink style. We purchased a few bottles of cider and maple syrup right from the farm as a small wedding party gift.
Originally, VVF was a higher price point than we budgeted for. After seeing a few other places with similar aesthetics, we knew this was the one! Everything was worth it. The day was amazing and we received a few compliments that it was the best wedding people have ever been to!! We can’t wait to go back to visit :)

We got married at Valley View in September 2022, and it was the best decision we could have ever made for our wedding! The day was absolutely perfect, and so much of that is because of the incredible staff at Valley View. We were lucky enough to have Teri as our planner, and we knew we were in the best of hands. We had a two year engagement/planning period, and Teri was completely involved the entire time, so supportive and making sure we weren't missing any important marks. The day of, she was just as, if not more, amazing, and kept every thing running perfectly, so that we could just enjoy the day. We truly couldn't have asked for a better planner, or staff in general. Our guests raved about how wonderful everyone was, not to mention the BEST food (seriously, unbelievable food), and the obviously strikingly beautiful barn. They were wonderful at including so many personal details about us throughout the venue, so everywhere you looked, it was so specific to us, and it made the day just so meaningful and special. The dance floor area is perfect, the bar is so beautiful (and with amazing cocktails!), the green truck was SO fun for us and our guests to take photos on, and the outdoor cocktail hour was so gorgeous. I could go on forever about how incredible VVF is, and we're eternally grateful to Teri, Thad, Sofia, and the entire WONDERFUL staff there for giving us the wedding day that was legitimately beyond what we were even dreaming of.

Valley View Farm was the best decision my husband and I made when planning our wedding! We got married in September 2022 and from our first tour, we were blown away with the venue and the people. In the words of one of my bridesmaids, our wedding planner Dan "...should win awards." He and his team made our day better than we could have imagined. Also, highly recommend the new Baldwin Loft for getting ready the morning of the wedding. It was gorgeous and the perfect way to start the day.

My husband and I got married in August 2022, it was hands down the most beautiful day of our lives. Teri was our wedding planner and she was extremely involved and supportive through the entire process. Leading up to the day, Teri was organized and clear when we had questions she was always available with an honest and helpful answer. On the day of our wedding, Teri was so clear and kept us on schedule easily she guided our somewhat rowdy groomsmen and sometimes inattentive friends through the ceremony, pictures, and introductions. She is nothing short of absolutely INCREDIBLE! The venue speaks for itself, the entire process was clear and organized allowing us to relax and enjoy our day beyond anything we expected. Each piece of the day was thoroughly planned and we are so grateful for the incredible VVF team! This is truly a dream wedding venue, there is nothing better out there.

My husband and I got married at Valley View Farm on September 3rd, 2022, and it was hands down the best day of our lives for so many reasons. Dan was our wedding planner and we couldn't have been more thankful for his expertise in all things wedding-related and his goal of making our day as perfect and smooth as possible. He is always willing to get on the phone for a quick chat no matter the time of day. Russell and I truly couldn't have done it without Dan. The VVF staff is also incredible - our guests had nothing but amazing things to say about their service and expertise, too. Everyone is so kind and accommodating. The food and drinks were DELICIOUS - also another thing that our guests couldn't stop talking about. Some even mentioned that it was the best wedding food they ever had! The grounds of Valley View are also out of this world. My husband and I were looking for a warm, rustic, modern farmhouse chic vibe and it was exactly what we got with VVF. Valley View is worth every penny, and I'm so happy that the best day of my life took place there.
