    Unexpected Farm has a beautiful location. The owner and her staff maintain the equine property in pristine condition. The staff is extremely friendly and easy to work with. They go above and beyond to make each and every event, big or small to be the most magical day possible.

    Unexpected Farm was the perfect backdrop for our fall wedding. The foliage on the property was absolutely beautiful and the views of the lake were breathtaking at sunset. I am a horse owner so having horses involved in some way was very important to me. Having them in the background while getting married was the perfect touch to make my wedding so memorable. Getting married can be difficult at times the fact that the property owners were easy to work with throughout the whole process, made everything so much simpler.
