    Beautiful, Stress Free Venue

    The space is so beautiful for weddings inside and out! Scott and Krista are amazing!!! They go above and beyond expectations in every way. I loved how flexible and helpful they are. It made our big day stress free. I also love how they are always looking to improve their venue. Scott and Krista and their venue is nothing less than spectacular!

    We are so happy with how our wedding turned out! Scott and Krista were very flexible and were very much willing to listen to our vision of our perfect wedding. It was beautiful and I would recommend this venue to anyone.

    Cannot say enough amazing things!!!!

    Literally cannot put into words how amazing Krista and Scott are. We knew immediately after our first tour of Whispering Pines that that would be the place we got married. The venue is BEAUTIFUL, and doesn't need much decorating or pizazz to make it look nice. We loved the option to get married inside or outside. We were planning on getting married outside, but storms made that impossible, and Krista and Scott were able to move our ceremony inside literally an hour before it started. We also loved the option to rent the venue for the whole weekend. It made our lives 1000% easier to be able to decorate on Friday morning and take down everything on Sunday, and not to mention have the rehearsal dinner there as well. Krista and Scott were amazing to work with and did everything they could to make our day special, and for that we are so so gracious.

    A Fairy Tale

    My wife and I really wanted a fairy tale wedding just like the ones we always use to read as kids and we are so lucky we found this venue. Let me first mention that Krista and Scott are amazing people, very flexible, hard working and super friendly. They deliver what they promise and ensure everything went smooth for us this day and im sure they will do the same for you.
    The venue itself is stunning, everyone loved it. Its space full, super clean and it delivers a touch of enchantment to your day. Oww how magical to have the first dance with the person you love under the chandeliers. Whispering Pines has everything you need to bring your own fairy tale to life!

    An absolute dream!

    We planned our wedding while living out of state, and finding a venue was not an easy task. We are so happy we stumbled on Whispering Pines. The owners, Krista and Scott, went out of their way to give us a FaceTime tour and we booked the place without ever seeing it in person. They always responded to (many) questions quickly and were honest, flexible and transparent about everything. The indoor space was a beautiful backdrop for our reception, and there are multiple options to choose from for an outdoor ceremony (all of them great!). We loved the option to book for the whole weekend so we could do all of the set-up and clean-up ourselves as well as host the rehearsal dinner on-site the night before. We cannot say enough about how wonderful this venue and the owners are. We would choose Whispering Pines again in a heartbeat. Thank you, Krista & Scott!

    Greatest Wedding Venue!

    If you are looking for an absolutely beautiful wedding venue and amazing owners, Whispering Pines is your place. Due to COVID, we decided to switch our wedding venue four months before our big day. Krista and Scott jumped in and made our replanning wedding process the easiest process ever. They truly are the kindest and most caring people to have a part of your wedding, I couldn't say enough amazing things about them and their venue. They give you the option, if available, to have the venue all weekend long, making it incredibly relaxing and easy to get things decorated and all ready for your big day. We received so many compliments on our wedding day, it was absolutely gorgeous and everything we dreamed it would be! If we had to do it all over again, we would 100% pick Whispering Pines every time. Highly recommend!!!

    Thank you so much Miranda! We were honored to share your special day with you - It was our pleasure!

    Absolutely gorgeous venue!

    We switched our wedding venue 6 months before our wedding due to the pandemic. We absolutely loved this venue!! Scott and Krista were amazing! They were like family. Super professional and accommodating on all our needs. They were there whenever we needed them. I can't imagine having our wedding anywhere else! This venue is gorgeous!! Highly recommend this place!

    Accommodating Venue

    Scott and Krista were amazing! Due to COVID, we found ourselves looking for a new venue 4 weeks before our wedding. They were so accommodating! The venue is beautiful! Our guests had nothing but great things to say!

    Memories that will last a lifetime!

    We searched high and low for a wedding venue to give us that "special feeling" but nothing felt right until we discovered Whispering Pines in Poynette. While choosing our venue, we knew we wanted it to feel like home - a warm, inviting space, filled with love and all of our closest loved ones and friends. Not only is Whispering Pines a beautiful place, but the owners Krista and Scott made us feel like family. They truly went above and beyond to make all of our wedding day dreams a reality.

    COVID hit just a few short months after picking our wedding date in Oct 2020. We knew that if there were any way we'd be able to make our special day still possible, we would have to make many adjustments to our original plans in order to provide a safe environment to our guests. Krista and Scott were so supportive and flexible every step of the way. They were willing to help with anything we needed with a smile on their face; from cleaning/sanitizing, to setting up our venue with social distancing in mind, to making grocery store runs for us if we ran out of things we needed throughout the night - they wanted to make sure we had whatever we needed & not to worry about a thing. Krista even stepped in to serve appetizers to our guests to reduce the risk of spreading germs, all in an effort to help keep our guests safe.

    The first time we came to see the venue, we mentioned their old church bell and how special it would be if it rang for us after we were pronounced married. At the time it needed some repairs as the bell is original to this beautifully renovated church. Not only did Scott manage to fix it by our wedding day, he climbed up on the roof to ring the bell for us himself. This was so special, and was just another one of the many gestures they made for us throughout our time working with them. They were so fun and made our day one we will truly never forget! We would choose Whispering pines 1000 times over again. We loved everything about our experience and give them a 5 star rating for communication, flexibility, honesty, transparency and willingness to go above and beyond for our special day! Thank you Scott and Krista, you guys are amazing!

    11/10 Service & Experience

    Whispering Pines, and the owners Krista and Scott SAVED our wedding. By the end, Krista and Scott were friends, not just a vendor. I constantly say that Whispering Pines is was what made our wedding so special.

    Thank you so much, Emily. I remember your call like it was yesterday. You were a real champ! It was a beautiful day and I'm so happy it worked out. Please say hello to your parents for us!

    Beautiful, Amazing, Memorable, No regrets!

    Whispering Pines is a beautiful venue inside and out. Scott and Krista were fantastic to work with willing to listen to my ideas and offer suggestions. There is so much natural beauty to Whispering Pines that I didn’t need to spend much time or money decorating. I highly recommend this venue. I was able to bring in my own caterers and supply my own beer and bartenders which was what I was looking for. I held my rehearsal dinner there Friday night after decorating and came again Sunday morning to clean up.

    Whispering Pines Event Center's reply:

    Thanks Ali! You two will always be special to us because you were our first official (non-family) wedding and we're so happy that you trusted us with your big day. It was beautiful!

    Could not have asked for a better venue

    It's a beautiful spacious venue surrounded by pines, we got a lot of compliments during the wedding. It's easy to get to with plenty of hotels and other accommodations nearby. Krista and Scott went above and beyond to ensure everything went perfectly. They're very professional and had great communication, also very patient which was big because as the day approached things got hectic. When we look back at our wedding and how we planned it we always feel lucky to have found Whispering Pines.

    Absolutely amazing venue!

    This venue is absolutely perfect for any wedding of any size! Scott & Krista are amazing to work with & will do everything to make your day everything you dreamed it’d be. We planned our wedding last minute, and they were there every step of the way to help ensure we had everything we wanted. The property is beyond gorgeous & makes for beautiful pictures! I highly recommend Whispering Pines for any event you’d like to have!

    Romantic & flexible

    Whispering Pines is such a beautiful and romantic venue! We are so pleased with how things turned out! Krista is super helpful and would always return my emails within 24 hours (usually much sooner than that!). They answered all of my questions - and I had a lot! One of the things we liked the most is that we really got to make our wedding our own. They were super flexible with almost everything!

    We held the rehearsal at the venue and did low-key burgers and brats. No problem.

    We purchased tokens so everyone got a drink from us for the rehearsal. No problem.

    We had to arrive at the venue at 645am on the wedding day. No problem.

    We wanted to have a drink just for the cocktail hour. No problem.

    I wanted all drinks for the wedding party (that were in mason jars) to be on our tab for the wedding day. No problem.

    We went through more than twice as much beer as we expected! No problem.

    There was a dead branch in a spot that we were considering for the ceremony and we wanted it removed. No problem.

    We wanted to hold the ceremony in a different spot than they usually had it. No problem.

    We wanted to have ice cream for dessert instead of cake - and needed freeze space for that. No problem.

    We did DIY florals and needed space for the bouquets after set up on Friday. No problem.

    Krista and Scott were great to work with. They were super accommodating, loved to hear our ideas, and were happy to help in any way that they could to make it happen!

    The 8 hours we had the day before and the few hours the following day to clean up were EXTREMELY helpful!!!! I can't imagine the stress of trying to do all of that stuff spread out over three days in just one day!

    The quaintness of the outdoors, the beauty of the inside, and how lovely the patio is made this the perfect venue for us! We also really took advantage of the beautiful props they have on hand including the hexagon arch, white drapery for behind the head table, 12 panel window, whiskey barrels, and more! We received so many compliments about how nice everything was!

    Krista, Scott, and their team helped so much on the wedding day. Early on, I was a little concerned because I would ask them about doing certain things like filling water or setting out ice cream and they didn't want to be assigned to things. At that time, I really wasn't clear on what their role was and what they would be doing. But after the fact, I appreciate everything they BOTH did throughout the day! From last minute things, to set up and take down outside, to greeting & directing the vendors, to helping with ceremony timing, to ringing the bell, to cleaning up spills, to literally washing our dishes at the end of the night! Krista and Scott were wonderful to work with!! We had the most perfect day/weekend of our lives! And we're so grateful to Krista & Scott for not only their beautiful venue, but also their support, flexibility, and labor!
