From the reviews

I would highly recommend this venue. Richard And David are consummate professionals and gracious hosts who made me and my teams experience at the farm magical. We hosted a corporate private event at the farm and our guests could not stop raving about the gorgeous setting the incredible food and the grounds.

★★★★★ — Laura, Oct 2021

This is an absolutely wonderful and magical venue! I hosted an Easter party here and everyone had a great time and could not stop complementing me. There are a number of 'secret gardens' on the property which are beautiful. The property owners attention to detail is amazing-- everything was absolutely perfect.

★★★★★ — Jessica, Oct 2014

✨ My Sister’s Dream Wedding Come True at Hidden View Farm ✨ From the Maid of Honor’s Heart Watching my sister marry the love of her life at Hidden View Farm was one of the most beautiful and emotional experiences of my life.

★★★★★ — Samantha, Jul 2025

I toured the place for a wedding venue and had an absolutely amazing experience. Brian is knowledgeable and patient. What I really liked how this farm as the venue is: 1) this place is beautiful (duh) 2) this place offers great flexibility when it comes to caterers, vendors, and other things, unlike some of the other…

Getting married at Hidden View Farm: Private Manor House and Gardens

Hidden View Farm: Private Manor House and Gardens 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.
