From the reviews

I truly can't say enough good things about The Ivy – it was everything we hoped for and more! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by how beautiful everything was. Every area of the venue was stunning and it's obvious they have put thought into every detail to create the perfect setting.

★★★★★ — Lindsay, Jul 2025

The Ivy by Finley Catering stands out first and foremost because of their team. The staff and level of service truly couldn’t be better. They are organized, attentive, and keep the entire day flowing seamlessly from start to finish.

★★★★★ — Lovestruck, Feb 2026

We had our wedding reception at The Ivy and we could not have imagined a more perfect day. We chose this venue even before construction was complete, and we could not have been more thrilled with how everything turned out.

★★★★★ — Devon, Aug 2025

Our daughter’s wedding was this past Saturday 10/12/2024! We have so many wonderful words to express about our experience with the Finley Family but it would never end !

Getting married at The Ivy at Ellis Preserve

The Ivy at Ellis Preserve 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 The Ivy at Ellis Preserve

Reviews and the venue's own info mention corporate events, retreats, or private parties at The Ivy at Ellis Preserve — 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.
