Brides on a budget: This place is very affordable! It was $600 for the reception hall, and $200 for the ceremony site. It is very laid back. There are no rules about what caterer you have to use, and you can bring your own booze. The reception hall is a giant red barn that holds 200+ people and has table and chairs included. There is a small lake that makes for nice pictures. We had a very casual country wedding and Valley Branch was perfect.

I did not end up using this vendor because I was disappointed when I went for my tour. The kitchen was a mess and smelled like wet dog because they feed their dogs there. However, the worst part was trying to get my money back. It is clearly stated in their terms and conditions that if you cancel before 7 days of your event, you can get a refund. The terms say there is a 5% service fee for issuing refunds. First they told me I could not get any refund because my payment was a deposit. Then, they told me they'd changed their terms, but hadn't updated them yet. Then, they told me they'd give me a refund, but charge 10%. I did get my refund in the end. However, their venue is not as advertised and they have shady business practices!
