From the reviews
Where do I start? How can I write a review about a place and person that facilitated the best day of my life? I will be reliving my dream wedding for all of eternity and its success was largely due to choosing the perfect venue. Literal perfection.
We used Flying Cloud Farm for our October wedding, and it was absolutely perfect! The venue is stunning—offering both beautiful indoor and outdoor spaces surrounded by horses, chickens, and the occasional wildlife visitor, which added such a charming touch. Our coordinator, Julia, made everything feel effortless.
We had our wedding at Flying Cloud Farm in early October 2025 and it was absolutely amazing. Flying Cloud was the first venue we toured and it really set the bar for us for the rest of our tours. We kept comparing everything back to Flying Cloud and that’s how we knew it was the one.
Where to start! The venue is absolutely beautiful, the coordinator that came with the venue planned the perfect wedding for us, and the cost was super reasonable. I could have not had a more perfect day and everyone I spoke to afterwards said that it was the best wedding they had ever been to. Flying Cloud is awesome!
Getting married at Flying Cloud
Flying Cloud comes up for weddings — confirmed on their own site. Two things make the tour worth it. First, see the garden at the time of day and season you'd actually get married — a garden that glows at golden hour in June can look very different at noon in March, so ask what's in bloom for your date and walk the path your guests take from parking to ceremony to reception. Second, bring your real questions: the rain plan (where does the ceremony move, and does it hold everyone?), shade and bugs for a summer afternoon, the catering and bar policy, the music curfew, and exactly what's included — tables, chairs, setup, and teardown are where quotes quietly diverge. Popular garden dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
Corporate events & private parties at Flying Cloud
Reviews and the venue's own info mention corporate events, retreats, or private parties at Flying Cloud — garden venues often have real weekday availability since weddings claim the weekends. A quick call answers the three things that matter: weekday and off-season rates, whether the space works for your headcount and A/V needs, and what catering is allowed. If your event lands on a Friday or Saturday in wedding season, ask early.
