It’s hard to describe the feel of Wally Creek Farm until you’ve strolled through the fields to a creekside ceremony, stomped your feet to music in the barn or looked up to the star filled sky above the cow pastures. There’s a natural feeling of warmth and love that old barns and farm property brings out in people.

We had a June wedding and it was absolutely amazing. The entire team is very attentive, professional, and make you feel like family. We had an unfortunate weather mishap and had a terrible downpour of rain just before our ceremony which meant we had to switch our ceremony to inside the barn instead of by the creek. I was so upset because they made it look so beautiful out there and I was really looking forward to our peaceful Creekside vows but Jessie handled everything so effortlessly and kept me at ease through the process. Everything went off without a hitch and to this day our guests all talk about how beautifully done everything was and how they really felt like it was very well put together. We stayed in the yurt on our wedding night and it was so peaceful and beautiful as well. We keep saying that we need to book it sometime so we can spend more time there. If you are thinking about booking your wedding here, do it. It is very well worth it. Maybe we will have a vow renewal one day here so I can do that by the Creek!
