Nicole & the entire team at Sawyer Family Farmstead are absolutely INCREDIBLE!

Nicole & the entire team at Sawyer Family Farmstead are absolutely INCREDIBLE! I seriously can not recommend them highly enough. I planned my wedding from across the country (which I assumed would be really stressful) and Nicole made it a piece of cake. We had regularly scheduled calls throughout the entire process, and she was always able to answer my questions right away which put me at ease. We ended up loving every local vendor that she recommended we use, and she was always professional and efficient when working with them. Nicole took the time to meet with us for multiple site walks whenever we were in town visiting, and always listened to any feedback I had. The day of the wedding could not have gone more perfect and that was all thanks to Nicole's planning skills! All of the staff at Sawyer Family Farmstead are so accommodating and friendly & it was such a wonderful experience working with them!!

Wedding on 5.18.24

Could not speak more highly of this venue and the people involved here. I was a bride that went through the transition of the sale of the business and transition of a coordinator and it could not have gone more seamless. Raquel is fantastic to work with and Brooke under her wing is learning all the great things. This venue was extreme flexible with what you want and really allows your vision to come to life. The Airbnb's on property for the long weekend provide a unique opportunity to spend quality time with guest before the wedding. I nicknamed it my compound wedding because once you drive into the venue there is really no reason to leave, they have everything and are still expanding. It could not have been a better place for our 100 people destination wedding. Also as a person who was worried about doing décor and centerpieces, Raquel and Brooke really bought it all to life with the items the venue already had plus the pieces we brought. It was a beautiful and hands off experience from that aspect. I felt full confidence to enjoy the weekend and not stress about checking in on the design constantly. They made sure the tiniest details were covered. Truly an amazing venue!

Most Beautiful Wedding

The venue alone is absolutely breathtaking and by itself is worth every penny. The staff makes it truly incredible. Raquel & Brooke did an amazing job making sure my day ran smoothly. They were easy to work with throughout the whole process, responsive, and fun. Raquel went above and beyond to run out and get us more wine when we embarrassingly ran out during cocktail hour. Overall, we believe we couldn't have picked a better place for our special day. Thank you, CPF!!
