“Beautiful wedding venue, one of my closest friends got married here and I highly recommend this place.”

From the reviews

Attended a wedding here. The venue is absolutely beautiful. Almost as beautiful as the bride. The only thing was the grounds are not the most disabled friendly. Lots of gravel walk ways.

One of my favorite places on Earth! In search of a waterfront inn for our wedding seven years ago, we came across Woodlawn Farm on a bed and breakfast website. We called Jim Grube, the owner and wedding coordinator, to schedule a meeting and the rest is history.

★★★★★ — Emilie, Aug 2016

We were hired to work a wedding at this gorgeous facility. From the time we pulled into the driveway until the time we left, we were treated professionally by the amazing, hardworking staff. The weather was horrid, but they made every conceivable effort to provide comfort to their guests.

★★★★★ — Southern, May 2017

Visited for a friend's wedding. They have a beautiful view of the water where their ceremony took place. There is a big converted barn where the reception was held that was very well kept and modern. The wedding had games set up outside for guests to play.

Getting married at Woodlawn Farm & Estate

Woodlawn Farm & Estate 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.
