The setting
“A quick heads-up for fellow animal lovers: Alturia is a working horse farm, but the horses are kept in large pastures or the barn, so they're not in the way.”
“There is green grass, and beautiful landscaping everywhere and so many places for the ceremony to choose from and places to take pictures.”
“The venue has an indoor and outdoor ceremony site, beautiful reception barn, a giant room filled with decorations, all of which you are welcome to use.”

From the reviews
Our daughters wedding was truly her FAIRY TALE. Ken and Janean Brooks and Lizzie treated our family like THEIR family the entire weekend. The attention to DETAIL, the COST of the VENUE, the BEAUTY all around us....what else could parents want. Our family and guests were in "AWE" of EVERYTHING!
As soon as we drove down the driveway at Alturia Farm we knew we found the perfect venue. From the very first encounter Janean made us feel so welcomed and excited to help bring our vision to life. Not only do you get access to this beautiful property there is so much more there they offer!
I cannot rave enough about Alturia Farm and the owners Janean and Ken!! From the day I went and toured the venue, Janean made me and my husband and our families feel at home and like we weren’t just another couple getting married there but like actual family! Janean and Ken are amazing people who are rare to find!
Janean and her family and staff at Alturia Farm are incredible. The venue and grounds are beautiful and meticulously maintained. The staff are BEYOND helpful and do everything in their power to make your day special.
Getting married at Alturia Farm
Alturia Farm comes up for weddings — confirmed on their own site. Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see it at the time of day you'd actually get married — a barn that glows at golden hour can feel very different at noon, and you'll want to walk the path your guests take from parking to ceremony to reception. Second, bring your real questions: the rain plan (where does the ceremony move?), the catering and bar policy, the music curfew, and exactly what's included with the rental — tables, chairs, setup, and teardown are where quotes quietly diverge. Popular dates at barn venues book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
