From the reviews
My husband and I were married at William Allen Farm on September 7, 2019. Not only was it the most gorgeous backdrop for our ceremony and reception, but Heidi was such a wonderful person to work with. From the very start we knew we were in great hands with Heidi and WAF.
Kate was amazing to deal with! I had booked the venue when Heidi had owned William Allen Farm and was a little unsure about it switching hands but she put my mind at ease instantly. The night went off without a flaw and everything was perfect!
This year I was in charge of planning the Junior / Senior Prom with the students on the Prom committee at the school where I teach. The students visited venues and unanimously loved William Allen Farm, the gorgeous barn, and the beautiful grounds; it's a departure from the norm of Prom being held in gray event rooms,…
My Wife and I set out to find our perfect venue in the height of the pandemic. We went through a couple places that were beautiful sites but the owners didn’t seem to want our business. We arrived at William Allen Farm and were immediately blown away with how incredibly breathtaking the barn is.
Getting married at William Allen Farm
William Allen Farm 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.
