A WEDDING VENUE WHERE TIME STANDS STILL
Because your celebration deserves to be experienced, not just survived.
“April is AMAZING! She was so helpful through the whole process of planning out decorations and decorating!” – Kalee Ravenscroft
A HISTORIC WEDDING VENUE WITH ROOM TO BREATHE
There’s a moment every bride fears—standing in your carefully chosen dress, surrounded by everyone you love, and somehow feeling miles away from it all. Lost in the details. Checking boxes instead of making memories.
We’ve walked alongside brides who came to us after venue tours left them feeling like just another date on a calendar. Who confessed in quiet voices that they’re more afraid of missing their own wedding day than anything going wrong.
At Cherrywood Ridge, our 1837 farmhouse and historic barn aren’t just beautiful backdrops—they’re witnesses to what matters. We see you struggling to balance everyone’s expectations while trying not to lose yourself. That’s why we offer something different: a peaceful refuge where our support goes beyond logistics to protect what’s truly important—your ability to be present.
Because one day, you’ll want to remember how it felt when you looked into your partner’s eyes and promised forever—not how perfectly the napkins matched the tablecloths.
