Hillside Farms is a dream for couples who want that elegant-meets-rustic feel. The property sits on acres of open farmland, lined with evergreens, gardens, and tucked-away spots perfect for portraits. Whether you’re exchanging vows under the vine-covered ceremony arch or dancing under twinkle lights in the barn, every inch of the venue feels intentional and inviting. Even with the rain, guests stayed dry and comfortable thanks to the layout, the ceremony space transitions easily into covered areas, and the barn doors open wide to keep the celebration connected to the outdoors. It’s one of those venues that feels equally beautiful in every kind of weather.

Outdoor Ceremony Space

One of the most recognizable features of a Hillside Farms wedding is the outdoor ceremony arch. Overgrown with vibrant green vines, it creates a natural frame that photographs beautifully in any season! For Kayla & Nick’s ceremony, the soft drizzle only added to the romance. Guests held clear umbrellas, laughter mixed with raindrops, and the couple exchanged vows beneath the greenery. This ceremony setup works perfectly for intimate elopements or larger celebrations, it’s simple, yet stunning, and pairs beautifully with the surrounding fields!

The Barn Reception

After the ceremony, guests move seamlessly into Hillside Farms’ spacious barn. With its wood-paneled walls, high ceilings, and warm string lighting, the space is an ideal blank canvas for any wedding style. Kayla & Nick chose soft blue accents, white roses, and glowing candles to bring a refined yet cozy look to the room. What couples love most about this barn is how versatile it is, you can keep it rustic with wooden details or dress it up for an elegant evening celebration. The lighting and layout make it easy to transform while still feeling authentic and comfortable.
