Why You'll Love This Place
A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
- Just six miles outside Bloomington, this family-run spot is part historic landmark, part pretty farm, and part tasteful event venue, boasting 156 rolling acres, two barns, and a turn-of-the-century farmhouse.
- Exchange vows at your choice of several pretty outdoor spots (there's always indoor back up in case of rain), then celebrate in the stunning two-story wedding barn, which features covered patios on each side overlooking the gorgeous grounds.
- Seven overnight guests can be accommodated at the Sanders Store, an iconic shop along Fairfax Road just adjacent to Whipporwill Hill. It's been lovingly renovated to highlight its industrial-chic design features, and makes a perfect "home base" for wedding weekend activities.
