From the reviews

I am so happy we chose Cottontail! Everything was perfect – the venue, the staff, the location. Matt and his team went above and beyond during every step of the process, from vendor recommendations to seating plan layouts, and Matt even built the wooden frame for the altar.

★★★★★ — Philip, Jul 2020

From the first moment of meeting Matt and seeing Cottontail, we knew it was going to be the perfect place for our daughter’s wedding. And we weren’t wrong! The venue is absolutely beautiful with the rustic bricks and old wood flooring. There is a large kitchen which was helpful with the food preparation.

★★★★★ — Terri, Nov 2018

Our daughter got married at Cottontail in September, and it was the most beautiful perfect day! Sharif and his team were just incredible to work with. They made sure everything went smoothly, and that our daughter and son-in-law had the wedding of their dreams.

Getting married at Cottontail Weddings & Events

Cottontail Weddings & Events 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.
