This 120 acre farm is filled with a variety of gorgeous settings for your day. The original Farmhouse is the perfect place for Brides to enjoy a few mimosa's while priming with her closest friends. Meanwhile, Grooms and their guys will feel right at home in the Lodge. 

With several unique ceremony locations, you're sure to find one perfectly tailored for your day. Say I do beneath the trees on the front lawn or in the historic Chapel.

As you walk the grounds, you’ll capture photos that will grace your home for decades to come. You’ll dance the night away inside the orginal barn light with twinkly lights and elegant chandeliers. Your guests will feel right at home inis how you so beautifully decorated the inside and thought of every last detail.

As you drive back down the lane, leaving the Barn as Husband and Wife, you’ll look over at your handsome husband and thank God you’re married to such an amazing man. And you’ll always remember how beautiful your day truly was.


THE PERFECT VENUE

It's the day of your wedding and sunlight is streaming through the tress along a fence-lined driveway while wheat blows gently in the fields beyond. Bails of hay pepper the landscape and cows graze in the distance...

“...had my heart set on a barn venue...”

As soon as we saw this venue, we had to have our wedding there! I had my heart set on a barn wedding, and it was amazing! The grounds as well as the actual barn are beautiful! Makes for great pictures!

THE FARMHOUSE

It's the morning of your wedding, and the last thing a Bride needs is to be cramped into a little room.  Renting out the Farmhouse at Brookside Farms is just another way to enhance a Bride's wedding day!  There's a large sunroom at the back of the house that is perfect for hair and makeup, and the living room in the front provides ample space for getting dressed.

THE LODGE

Just as the girls have the Farmhouse for getting ready the morning of the wedding, the gentleman can rent out the Lodge.  What was once the hangout spot for the owner's son, is now the perfect gathering spot for the guys.  

THE CHAPEL

A place of worship without having to leaving Brookside Farms.  The Chapel provides a church-like atmosphere with a touch of rustic.

THE BARN

Built in 1884, the Barn has many modern amedimenties that a Bride will need on her wedding day.  For guest lists up to 275 people, you'll have ample dance floor space to celebrate with your closest friends and family

Should we both get ready at Brookside Farms?

FAQ

A FEW OF OUR MOST FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT SHOOTING WEDDINGS AT BROOKSIDE FARMs

Where do you recommend taking our family portraits?

I always recommend taking family formals inside the Chapel at the "alter" space.  

What time should we schedule our ceremony to begin?

This answer is dependent on a couple of factors.  Do you plan doing a first look?  Are you having a Friday wedding?  I would say depending on your answers, you could have a 3:30 ceremony, or as late as 5:30.

Do they allow for sparkler exits? Should we do one?

Brookside Farms has not changed their policy yet on sparkler exits, so if you want to do one, do it!  They make for beautiful photos!  Read here about controlled exits at receptions.

How long should we plan to take bride & groom portraits?

Brookside Farms makes up 120 acres.  That being said, there are dozens of different spots for photos!  If you want to utilize the property to the fullest, you should plan for at least 45 minutes.  If you only care about one or two spots, you can make do with 30 minutes.

How much does it cost to get married at Brookside Farms?

As wedding venues enhance a couple's experience, prices change.  That being said, prices start at around $4,000 at Brookside Farms.
