    Dream venue, but even better

    I can't recommend Kuiper's Family Farm for your wedding venue enough. I found them through The Knot, immediately reached out because it looked so cute, and once I talked to Nick and toured the venue I couldn't say no. This place was better than I could've dreamed. Nick in particular went above and beyond, doing more than I would've expected to make our wedding day perfect. I didn't have a care in the world on the wedding day because Nick and his team took care of everything, down to our tiniest details and requests. He met with us multiple times leading up to the day, allowed us to set up and hold our rehearsal dinner at the venue the...

    The best venue EVER!!

    If you have any doubts at all about booking with this venue, erase them immediately and go with it! I don't think I have enough room to write how much I loved this venue. Nick is truly one of the best people in the business. He made everything so easy and stress-free. Here were just a few of the highlight:
    -He worked within our budget (HUGE!!)
    - Whenever I had a question or concern, he would respond almost immediately with an answer or solution.
    -He never made me feel crazy when presented with some of my out there ideas
    -HE WAS AN ANGEL TO MY FAMILY--who was quite difficult at times
    -He was present the whole day-whenever anyone...

    Beautiful Modern Rustic Venue

    If you are looking for a beautiful indoor/outdoor venue with the most flexible, kind and helpful staff ever.. then Kuipers is your venue!! Due to COVID-19, my husband and I split our wedding up. In November 2020 Kuipers let us host a 10-person ceremony and dinner with our parents and siblings so that we could still get married on our original wedding date. They also worked with us to plan a reception the following year as our Anniversary Celebration!! Both events turned out absolutely wonderful and we are forever grateful for Kuipers patience, guidance and cooperation. The aesthetic at Kuipers is simple, elegant, rustic and cozy. My husband and I, as well as our guest, had a wonderful time...

    From initial meeting to the end of the day of the wedding we had 100% satisfaction and amazing customer service!

    We had looked at several places with our Daughter and Son in law before coming to Kuipers. While in the car after the initial meeting my Daughter said this it it! We agreed it was far more appealing then others we visited for the total ease at the meeting with no hard sell to the beautiful grounds. Up to the day of the wedding we were able to make certain changes without feeling we were annoying them. They made it clear it was our Daughters wedding and they truly wanted the best experience for their day. Kathy and the entire team were amazing keeping everything on schedule and keeping everyone happy. So many guests commented on what a wonderful place and event it was. I would recommend them 100%!

    Unique and perfect venue with amazing service

    Kuipers was the most amazing wedding venue. I searched the Chicagoland area for a venue that would not only hold 250 people or more but be on a tighter budget. I was amazing with the venue at Kuipers. We were disappointed that they only had Friday dates available for us but it was so worth it. The venue from day 1 was so focused on what we wanted for our day and making the process as easy as possible. They were always understanding and flexible for EVERYTHING!!!! The food here was amazing as well. For someone who has attended an obscene amount of weddings with a very large family on both my side and my husbands we were sick...

    So far so amazing! I have been working with Al since the engagement and Kuipers has been an absolute dream to work with, not to mention is a gorgeous venue. We are getting married in Virgil and will be having our reception at Kuipers. I am planning my wedding from Virginia and they have been so accommodating and helpful with the process and working with our budget. We did a tasting with Upper Crust Catering, who is their caterer at this venue and the food was phenomenal! Working with them has been a breeze and has made planning stress free from afar! I will follow up after the big day!

    Gorgeous Venue | Amazing Staff

    We are incredibly grateful to have found and booked Kuiper's for our wedding. The venue was gorgeous and the staff was incredibly flexible and friendly.

    Prior to booking, our only concern was the price tag and inability to cater our own food. We're very happy we moved passed these concerns as Kuiper's is very accommodating and will work with you to craft an event order that suits your needs. The food and drink was fantastic (we highly recommend trying their ciders) and there were countless ways Kuiper's provided value for us that we did not account for on the front end.

    Wedding planning could have been a major headache at a different venue, but a...

    Beautiful venue with an amazing staff!

    We had an excellent experience hosting our wedding at Kuiper's Family Farm! The venue is gorgeous and perfect for a fall wedding. The staff was friendly, professional, and able to accommodate our various requests to create our picture perfect day! Would definitely recommend Kuiper's Family Farm for your wedding!

    Amazing weddings are always at Kuiper's Family Farm

    We choose Kuiper's because the venue sold itself from the very first tour. The property is beautiful and allows for all sizes of weddings. Nick was fantastic with helping us plan our wedding all the way up to the big day. Annie was amazing with everything and anything we needed on the wedding day. I could not have asked for a better venue and support team to help me plan my dream wedding. We would highly recommend Kuiper's to any couple starting to plan out their big day. Please go take the tour, you will not be disappointed!!

    Amazing Experience

    The amount of flexibility, responsiveness, and kind gestures we received while working with Kuiper's and their team cannot be understated. We had our original wedding date to be in May 2020 until the pandemic hit in full force. We were able to work with Kuiper's to reschedule, and then reschedule again since the pandemic didn't die down by our second date. When we finally had the wedding it was everything we dreamed it would be. The venue had that rustic look we were looking for and the set-up exceeded our expectations. We had our wedding indoors due to weather but it may have been better that way! The ceremony décor looked amazing and during the cocktail hour they rearranged...

    The starting of forever memories

    My husband and I got married at Kuipers on 7/17/2021, so that being said I took a long time to write this review because I really wanted to sit and reflect to be able to write something so perfect.
    My husband and I are very low key people or least we like to think we are. We booked with Kuipers on 03/2019 and then covid happened. Nick Meyers kept us sane. Half of this post alone could be about how wonderful he is. When we found out that Illinois was implementing phases, we knew that the wedding we wanted wouldn't happen the way that we wanted it to. Nick immediately answer any questions and helped us pick a...

    Kuipers: Every Detail was Covered!

    Not only was this a beautiful place for my son and his wife to get married, but the staff (especially the hard work of Kathy and her crew) was amazing. If we even showed a glimpse of worry or tension during set-up, Kathy jumped right on it, proved that everything was handled, and made sure we were satisfied. TOP NOTCH! The day and evening went off without a hitch. Thanks to Kuipers for a memorable event.

    I cannot say enough great things about this place. The staff- Laura, Kathy & Ruthie were fantastic. They handled all of our concerns promptly. Laura responded to each and every E-mail quickly- made planning a breeze. The wedding was on 7/20/18 and it rained so we had to move the ceremony inside, they were great, helping us set up and giving us decorating ideas. The reception was BEAUTIFUL!!! The service was great, never an empty water glass, the food was delicious, the Donut Bar is a must have...people are still talking about it!! Restrooms were clean and the Bridal Suite is so close to the Hall making it super convenient. This was truly the most beautiful venue I have ever seen!

    My heart bursts when I think about our wedding day at Kuipers Family Farm on June 30, 2018. I was planning my wedding from Los Angeles and so I needed a venue that was going to be very responsive, flexible and reasonably priced. Kuipers was all that and more. They allowed us to have the property for the whole day which was very rare when looking at venues. We were the only wedding taking place at the property and the venue has everything you could need - didn't need any extra rentals. The venue is HUGE and our guests were able to play corn-hole, take a train ride around the property, sit by the fire pit, or dance in...

    Kuipers Farm and the event team made our wedding day PERFECT. It was effortless. They helped us every step of the way, even with planning and the rehearsal. The venue is beyond beautiful. I felt like I got married at a private vineyard in napa valley. It was so private and quiet. You could dress the place up however you'd like, but if you did nothing, the place is perfect as is.

    I cannot say enough great things about working with Kuipers Farm for our wedding. Everything was perfect! I really enjoyed that they basically took care of everything for us. We didn't worry about the cake, food, plates, table, etc. We had so many compliments on our venue & location. Our guests loved that we had the farm to ourselves and that it wasn't just another banquet hall.

    If you're thinking about booking your wedding there - just do it! You will not regret it! The team is amazing & I would work with them again in a heartbeat!

    Beyond amazing!! My husband and I just had our wedding here on the 14th and it was beyond my dreams. the whole staff was perfect. I don't think I could ever thank Al enough for his patience with me and every crazy idea my imagination would come up with, he took the time and listened and always had great advice. The day of our wedding Maribel, Kathy, and of course Al were like fairy godparents, my wedding went so smooth and everyone had a great time. I can not wait to be able to bring my grandchildren to apple pick here in the future and tell them about how grandma and grandpa had there fairy tale wedding here!! Thank...

    We just got married at Kuipers Family Farm and could not be happier!! The venue is absolutely gorgeous! We worked with Al prior to the day of the wedding where Cathy helped with the day of wedding details. They were so friendly, extremely accommodating, and very professional!! We loved everything about the day/night and highly recommend checking it out. The pictures are going to be stunning with the apple orchard in the background. We received so many compliments on the venue and can't wait until we can attend a wedding there as a guest.

    I got married in June at Kuipers Family Farm, and it was perfect! My husband and I love going to their apple orchard in the fall, and when we found out they are also a wedding venue, we knew it would be a great place to get married. Albert and Maribel, the event coordinators, are wonderful to work with. Throughout the process, they made sure every detail was taken care of and took away a lot of stress of wedding planning.
    The food was catered by Upper Crust Catering, and everything was amazing. We had pulled pork sandwiches, beef brisket, mac and cheese, mashed potatoes, and coleslaw… it was all so delicious! At first I was hesitant about...

    Kuipers Family Farm is one beautiful place to be married. Even though our wedding had a mini "hurricane" it was still lovely inside. Kathy and Al were so accommodating and were on top of their game the whole entire evening. It was truly magical and we will never forget it. We are also very happy to have picked Kuipers, because we can keep returning for years to come for apple picking, christmas trees, pumpkins, and more : ) Thank you for all the memories.

    We wish we could celebrate our daughter's wedding again! And we would definitely return to Kuiper's Family Farm.
    So many friends and family said it was the most fun and unique wedding they had attended.

    The location and facilities were truly perfect-you get the feel of a rustic working farm but with the amenities of a more traditional setting ie. ac, bathrooms, sound system... that you have to truck in for other barn venues.
    The silo bar was a big hit and the bartenders do a great job of having cocktails ready to go on the terrace immediately after the ceremony.

    Our only reason for less than a perfect score was there were a few problems...
