From the reviews

Donaldson-Bannister Farm was an incredible venue for our Fall wedding. The day was extraordinary. The grounds were magnificent and the ceremony setting was beautiful. The whole process was enjoyable.

★★★★★ — Elizabeth, Mar 2020

City council retreat today. What a nice venue for the meeting . Great place for family outings. The updates are just right.

★★★★★ — Bill, Jun 2018

I have never been here for a private event and it was wonderful! The reason for my four stars instead of five is that we were having an outdoor reception and it was 88° out and with the plastic halfway around the pavilion-IT WAS HOT!!! Too hot! Why weren't there fans of some sort to move the air???

★★★★☆ — Iris, May 2022

This place is awesome! We had our wedding there and not only was it beautiful but their staff hopped in to help when an issue arose and really came through! I cannot thank them enough for how gracious they were and how beautiful the space came together!

Getting married at Donaldson-Bannister Farm

Donaldson-Bannister 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.
