★★★★★ — Party, Oct 2022

My wife and I got married here in August of 2025. What an incredible experience! My wife's whole family plus a couple cousins and friends (total of 11 people) were able to stay in the main house from Thursday until Sunday. It made the logistics of having direct family from out of town much easier.

★★★★★ — Matthew, Dec 2025

My wedding weekend at Guildford Farm was everything I hoped it to be and more. We arranged to come a night early to get settled and relax before all our festivities, which was a great decision. My entire family and my husband’s mom all got to stay comfortably in the lovely, large house for the weekend.

★★★★★ — Ellie, Jun 2025

My husband and I got married at Guildford Farm on 10/26/2024. Choosing Guildford was the best decision we could have made for our wedding. The owners, Jonny and Katie were incredibly knowledgable and helpful throughout the entire process.

Getting married at Guildford Farm

Guildford 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.

Corporate events & private parties at Guildford Farm

Reviews and the venue's own info mention corporate events, retreats, or private parties at Guildford Farm — barn venues often have real weekday availability since weddings claim the weekends. A quick call answers the three things that matter: weekday and off-season rates, whether the space works for your headcount and A/V needs, and what catering is allowed. If your event lands on a Friday or Saturday in wedding season, ask early.
