First off these have been hard times for many and I do not want to minimize that for individuals or businesses. My Fiancee found this place to be the location for our wedding ceremony and reception. Getting in contact with the owners Tom and Jill to schedule to meet their employee to make a cash deposit was easy. Also I did pay in cash for a 10% discount which I regretted later. We met with Stephanie to go over the contract in September of 2019. Stephanie is the employee that takes care of the farm and she was very helpful in going over the documents to schedule an April 25th 2020 wedding. We all know that the Governor shut down many events, larger weddings and gathering were canceled , however, the owner Tom called and canceled our wedding date two weeks before there were any mandates on large gatherings. At the time the CDC made recommendations, but nothing from the Governor on large gatherings. This was very disappointing of course and when we were told by Tom and Jill to wait things out, we did so very very patiently. The April 25th date came and went and we continued to wait for our inept Governor to open things back up. July 2020 and still waiting and at this point I call Tom to discuss a refund and he puts me off every chance. Many times I had to call from a different number and when he would pick up he was busy and about to have a meeting or he was very short with me and sounded upset that I called. Tom told me he would talk to Jill to see what she says about their money situation. Another couple months went by and so I start calling again for some answers on this. After a few back an fourth short dismissing calls I get a call back just before Christmas. Toms says they cannot give a full refund, but as a good gesture for Christmas send $500 of the $2750 that I gave them in cash. I never meet with the owners and nothing was done with the venue to warrant keeping the deposit. At the very least they could have given half of the deposit back which still they did not earn. Tom tells me that there is up keep with his farm and my deposit went to that upkeep. What a joke! Our deposit was for the Venue, a place that I would be paying for on the 25th day of April 2020. Of course the deposit was for half of the total cost and we were just using a building and a gazebo. Nothing was done in prepping the venue as our date was canceled far in advance. Very sad that there are people doing business like this. I work with folks that take deposits and during these times we gave all deposits back to people that worked in the industries that were effected by these shut downs. I feel like the only option left for me was to write this review and give this rating. Not happy to do this, but we feel a responsibility to let other folks know who they are signing a contract with when planning a wedding or any other gathering or business function.

I chose this spot for my wedding venue because it was on a historic plantation site with a farm in which the family lived. This is an active farm with horses and a horse drawn carriage for the wedding use. This place has a gazebo for ceremonies, a field for ceremonies, and a lodge for ceremonies. You could also use all of these areas for reception. There is an endless amount of choices for this venue and I loved that. Everything was vintage and rustic and beautiful. The people are professional and so easy to work with. I can't say enough great things about Bennet Bunn. It was just perfect!
