Wedding Pricing & Guidelines

Our wedding season extends from mid-April through mid-November. We have the perfect setting for both outdoor and indoor ceremonies, with our barn chapel providing a beautiful wedding place in cooler or wet weather.

To book a wedding date, please e-mail your preferred date with full names of bride and groom, along with phone, e-mail, and mailing address information. We will prepare and e-mail a Confirmation Sheet.
