Elegant Wedding Barn-largest for social distancing
We are a hidden gem, nestled into our tiny community of Old Cottage Grove which was settled in 1843. Our historic, white, Gothic arched dairy barn is the icon of Cottage Grove and sits on 5 acres of green grass, pastures, emblematic oak trees, and overlooks a valley with stunning sunsets. Our elegant barn is second to none with beauty, a brand-new outdoor ceremony site, indoor ceremony option, a gorgeous bridal suite, masculine groom's suite, heat and air-conditioning for year round events, a game room, outdoor game space, capacity from 100-500 guests, and much more.

This venue is beautiful and was everything I could have hoped for! The entire process was organized, professional and timely. The venue is spacious and comfortable and the bride/grooms suites are perfect for getting ready and pictures. The oustide spaces offer a wide variety of picture locations We had great success with the venue's preferred vendors and Jennifer (manager) was always available for questions.

I got married at Furber Farms on 12/31/22. Outside of the venue being absolutely stunning, the owners and site manager were wonderful to work with. They answered any questions promptly and worked with me to make the perfect day happen with ease! The bridal suite is large with great seating and the groomsmen stayed happy & occupied with the TV's and games in the game room. The space itself was plenty big to do a ceremony inside, cocktail hour upstairs, dinner down & upstairs, and an electric dance floor to close out the night for 200 people.

Furber Farm was INCREDIBLE! The entire team is efficient, responsive, kind, and overall a joy to work with. We got married in June and had our reception at the farm. We received endless compliments on the beautiful venue, the wonderful outdoor space, and the stunning interior. I cannot recommend Furber Farm as a venue to enough people, they truly went above and beyond to ensure our day was special.

We just got married 7-16-22 and we are so glad we picked Furber Farm for our wedding! I couldnât imagine having it anywhere else. The owners and employees were incredibly helpful and quick to respond during the year between booking and our wedding. We got SO MANY compliments on the venue and how beautiful the day was. There are so many beautiful spots for photos and the patio was a great outdoor space for people to hang out. I could go on and on. We had our perfect wedding day at Furber and we wish we could relive it all over again!

I was a bride that had to plan 2 weddings due to Covid. We ended up only doing our reception here but it was still AMAZING! The staff was so helpful and understanding in the rescheduling phase. I had so many compliments from my guest on how amazing and beautiful the venue was and how nice it was to have an area for kids.

We loved having our wedding at Furber! Wayne, Angi and Dianna were all easy to work with. When we originally booked, we were required to use A'Britin Catering, but they have since changed this requirement. We ended up using Tinucci's catering and we loved that! The barn is beautiful, the rooms to get ready in are great, too! I think they have two items that could be improved on. One would be adding an all-around sound system inside the barn. There are two large speakers that face towards the head table, and that is it. We heard from so many guests at tables on either end of the barn, that they had a hard time hearing speeches. We think adding some mini speakers around the barn would be greatly beneficial! Also having taller chairs in the bridal suite would help out the hair and makeup folks! Overall, I am so happy to have had my wedding at Furber; it was a dream come true and I would recommend it to everyone! We received so many compliments about it and how naturally beautiful it was.

We had our wedding at Furber Farm on July 30, 2021 and we were OBSESSED!!!! I was blown away not only at the venue (which was spectacular) but also at how helpful Angi and Wayne were. From vendor recommendations to helping with our table layouts and executing a beautiful wedding, Furber Farm was perfect. We have received SO many compliments from our guests about how amazing the venue was. We had our ceremony in the grass, our cocktail party in the back patio and the reception and dancing inside the barn and everyone mentioned how because of that split, it felt like we had 3 totally different spaces for each part of the night. From a bride's perspective, the get ready rooms were perfect and beautiful with great lighting and lots of mirrors. The venue itself has great landscaping so there's great backdrops for pictures all around the barn PLUS they have lots of land with some forest and some fields to make for great sunset pictures. It was all around the best place to have a wedding.

Furber Farm really stepped in when I was in the midst of switching venues due to Covid. We originally got married in my parent's backyard in 2020 and chose Furber Farm for our One Year Anniversary Celebration. My husband not seeing the venue until we got there, said \"Man, I wish we could have had the whole thing here!\" We were incredibly pleased with this beautiful venue! Highly recommend!!

Furber Farms far exceeded any expectations we had for a wedding venue. From the very beginning of the process, the team at Furber was flexible and worked with us and our busy schedules to discuss logistics. They spent time with us to answer our questions, discuss options, and help us imagine our wedding within their venue. It is evident that the team has put care, intention, and heart into this venue. They recently created a new ceremony space which we were thrilled to use. The new site includes a paved pathway making it easy for guests to navigate while still keeping the feel of a wide open outdoor venue. Two highlights of this venue include the catering and the bar. Adagio DJ is Furber's exclusive DJ. They were fantastic to work with and since this partnership is exclusive, their staff is well-versed in adjusting the sound system both outside and within such a spacious and airy venue. This was especially important to us during ceremony and toasts/speeches so that guests were not straining to hear - regardless of where they were seated. Another exclusive vendor at Furber was Tinucci's bar. They are incredibly easy to work with and very flexible. They, too, are quite familiar with the set-up and made coordinating a breeze. Though Furber does include these two convenient exclusive vendors - we were able to select any vendor we wanted for catering. We loved having the flexibility to shop around and try different types of food to decide what worked for us. We ended up selecting Baba's Catering with absolutely delicious Mediterranean cuisine. Furber's indoor space was spacious enough to fit all of our 250 guests while still affording space for two buffet lines to get our guests through in a timely manner. Our guests were wined and dined efficiently with seamless flow.Logistics aside - we chose Furber based on feel. We absolutely loved the spacious fields and open view that surround the barn, the stunning white exterior, and the elegant interior of the barn. Because the indoor space has a full set of handmade tables, beautiful top to bottom hardwood, and ambient chandelier lighting, our decoration needs were minimal. We loved that there were sizable men's and women's \"getting ready\" areas as well as a game room to use for a stress-free and enjoyable morning. Beyond the specifics of the decor and amazing set-up at Furber - we realized during our wedding just how much we loved the two levels of the barn. We utilized both the lower and upper level seating areas and were taken aback as we looked up during toasts/speeches and during our grand entrance to see our friends lining the banister cheering us on. Because of the set-up in the barn - we truly felt surrounded by those we love most. The two levels again provided an unexpected favorite memory of the evening. Our photographer led us to the upper level during the dance so that we could take a moment to watch our guests joyfully dance with each other. We watched as our worlds were blending. Friends of friends were dancing together, our parents dancing with one another, people who hadn't met until our bachelor/ette parties were now singing together at the top of their lungs - and at Furber, we had the perfect vantage point to see it all. We truly enjoyed every minute of our wedding day and cannot imagine it being anywhere else but Furber Farms. Thank you to Angi, Wayne, and Diana for providing the most special space for us to celebrate the most special day of our lives.

Furber Farms is the most beautiful barn in Minnesota! I knew from the second I walked in that it was the place I wanted to get married at! The white barn outside is so great, but the inside is spectacular! There is so much beauty in itself that the less decoration is almost more! They have 2 different choices for an outdoor ceremony and another for indoors. Ours ended up being side due to the rain, but it was still beautiful! The only challenge was finding something to cover up the glare from the patio doors behind the head table. We ended up buying a pallet wall to use as a backdrop so that was an added expense. It all worked out though!I am so happy I picked Furber Farms and all of my guests agreed that I was ab AMAZING venue too! Totally worth the price tag đ

What a venue! My husband and I had our wedding at Furber Farm May 21st, 2021 and could not have been happier with our decision for our big day! Through out the whole planning process, Diana, Angi and Wayne were so helpful, easy to work with and great with communication. They are also wonderful and very nice people. The venue is absolutely STUNNING and we were able to utilize the entire event space. Our ceremony was in the front with beautiful stone for the ceremony space, our cocktail hour was on their brand new back patio that has its own marble top bar, and our reception was in the spacious barn. On top of the actual wedding space, this venue includes an awesome bridal & grooms suite with so much space to get ready in no matter how big your bridal party is (we had 8 groomsmen & 8 bridesmaids). Could not recommend this venue enough! Wish we could relive the day all over again!

We chose Furber Farm because it was one of the few venues large enough for our guest list of 360 in the Twin Cities and we absolutely loved the wooden interior! We didn't end up having nearly this many guests due to having a \"COVID wedding,\" but the staff at Furber Farm were very transparent and flexible with helping us navigate throwing a reception during the unprecedented times in August 2020. We especially appreciated having a final walk through the week before our wedding. We had our ceremony off-site, but loved the bridal suite and groom's room so much that we got ready there and took pictures before we left for our ceremony! The space is perfect for a wedding reception! They have really thought about everything- the layout, the game room, the decks, and the silo bars! We definitely recommend this venue to anyone looking to get married in the Twin Cities!

We absolutely loved John P. Furber Farm! I had my eye on it for a couple years after attending a friendâs wedding there and was over the moon when the dream became a reality for our own wedding. It is so beautiful and we are still receiving compliments from our family and friends on how nice and special the venue is. From our initial walk through to our wedding day, the staff was super helpful and easy to work with. The bridal suite was one of my favorite rooms and we really appreciated being able to bring in our own food and beverages the morning of while we were getting ready. We loved being able to choose the site of the ceremony from their multiple options and they were really flexible with the close to last minute change for the location. The inside is stunning and needs very little decoration to make it special and they have a wonderful long driveway where we did a very cool sparkler send off. I would 100% recommend this location to anyone who is looking for a rustic and elegant barn wedding!

We absolutely loved John P. Furber Farm! I had my eye on it for a couple years after attending a friendâs wedding there and was over the moon when the dream became a reality for our own wedding. It is so beautiful and we are still receiving compliments from our family and friends on how nice and special the venue is.

John P. Furber Farms was an amazing venue! We are still hearing people talk about how beautiful the barn and property was months later! There are so many different unique places to take pictures outside and we needed minimal decorations for the inside of the barn due to how gorgeous the barn already is naturally. We were so happy with the service that we received and would definitely recommend to anyone looking for an outdoor/barn wedding.

Wow, I don't know where to begin when I start typing this review. If you are looking for a rustic, beautiful, and barn styled venue, then John P. Furber Farm is the place for you. There are many barn venues in Minnesota, but what makes John P. Furber Farm, so unique from the other venues is the owners Angi and Wayne Butt. No words can truly express my gratitude and appreciation for them and the other staff at John P. Furber Farm. When I booked my venue back in February 2018, the second I walked through the door, I was greeted with a big smile. Angi is one of the warmest and welcoming people I have ever met. She makes you feel right at home the second you step through their beautiful doors. John P. Furber Farm was the perfect venue for our wedding day!! The barn was easy to decorate because it is so gorgeous you don't need to add much. Throughout the whole night of the wedding, our guests could not get over how breathtaking the venue was. Guests were also fans of the kids and the game room (which is a massive bonus if you are planning on having kids and high schoolers at your wedding). Another beautiful feature of the barn is the bridal suite. Oh my goodness, I have never seen such a stunning place!! It was a fantastic space to get ready, enjoy a mimosa, and take pictures. The barn is full of perfect spots for photos, but my favorites were on the stairs with the wedding party coming down. We had the most magical and perfect wedding day, and it is all because we chose to have our day at John P. Furber Farm. I cannot rave enough about Angi and Wayne. Yes, we only knew each other through emails (which they respond to ASAP, like you ask a question and they get back to you within hours, none of this waiting days to hear back), open houses, and final walkthrough but by the end of our wedding journey, they felt like family. Seriously, they both have hearts of gold. For example, one day, my mom and I were driving passed the venue because it is so beautiful, and I wanted to get some ideas for my upcoming wedding. Wayne saw us outside, and immediately walked over to our car and started talking with us. He told us to come in and take measurements or do whatever we needed to do. We said no, we are just looking because we love the venue so much. Wayne proceeded to spend over an hour talking to us, and it even was raining! Who does that? Oh yeah, the staff at John P. Furber Farm because they ACTUALLY care about you and want your day to be as beautiful as you have dreamt it! Another example of their kindness is when we got to the barn on our wedding day. My family was helping bring in decor and other items we needed for setting up, and here comes Wayne and one of his friends to help us unload and get the pieces into the barn. He did not have to do that, but because he cares about his brides, grooms, and their families, he wanted to make sure he could do whatever he could to make the day easier on us. Angi and Wayne are delightful owners who love what they do. They care for people and want to make your wedding day something you will cherish forever. With my whole heart, I highly recommend and encourage you to book your wedding at John P. Furber Farm. You will have the most incredible experience ever, and maybe even gain two new family members as we did. Thank you again, Angi and Wayne. We are beyond blessed that you two and your barn came into our lives!

It is absolutely beautiful inside and out. Not much decorating is needed. The owners Angi and Wayne were great to work with, responding very timely to any questions we had. We worked with Diana the day of our wedding and she was amazing! She was very kind and was there to help with anything we needed.

We fell in love with Furber Farm from the moment we pulled up to the property. Angi and Wayne have beautifully crafted the perfect wedding venue. The warmth, fun, and beauty that this venue emits is a feeling that we didn't feel anywhere else (and we looked at quite a few places!). We loved being able to utilize the bride and groom suites to get ready with our wedding party the morning of, have our pup be a part of our indoor wedding ceremony, and work with Angi to have our ceremony layout the long way in the barn instead of the usual 'short way'! We got married in February and Angi was mopping up the muddy/wet floors of the barn before the ceremony started so it would look perfect for our guests - we can't say enough great things about this venue!

It snowed the morning of our wedding, and I wouldn't change it for the world. The inside space worked PERFECT for the ceremony, and the reception. All of the tables are on wheels for an easy transformation into the reception. The team is well organized and really easy to work with. Angie is available for questions, and the barn has open house nights for new and potential couples to either measure things out, or see the space for bookings. You can also make a private appointment to see the space which is what we did. The Bridal and grooms suites are like nothing I've seen before, they are GORGEOUS, and make for some pretty awesome getting ready photos!

Historic John P. Furber farm was everything we wanted in a venue and more! We knew we wanted a rustic feel to our wedding but also had a strict budget to stay under. This was the first and only venue we looked at and left knowing 100% we wanted to book it! We had no desire to even look at other venues, that's how in love with it we were! Not only is the main room absolutely beautiful, but the groom's room and bridal suite are incredible! I love the fact that Angi said her husband made and designed a lot of the things in each room. It just brought a more \"home\" feel to everything! We also loved the huge grass area where we could have yard games, the large amount of parking spots, AND the kids room. Being a teacher, I wanted to make sure I had kids at my wedding but I also wanted kids to feel welcome! The kids room was the cherry on top of the cake! There is a whole room just for kids to hang out in! Another thing is that because of the beauty of the barn, we didn't need to do too much decorating! The barn itself is beautiful and we really only hung up some lights and did table settings. I would 100% recommend this venue to anyone! I feel like most people who book barns are into the \"country\" feel of it. But we loved using this venue to meet our rustic bohemian theme! It was perfect!

Working with Angi and Wayne was a joy from the first meeting!

Angi and Wayne are continuing to work hard in renovations to make the barn truly a beautiful experience. Our guests commented on what a beautiful venue it was and how much fun they had while they were there. Angi was always a phone call or email away if needed to answer questions. Their contract is straightforward, they have specific caterers to choose from, and a DJ contracted specifically for their building (not included in venue payment, but VERY convenient). We loved the ceremony venue on site, it was perfect (and also HOT) for our ceremony. There is a flow to the set-up of the venue that makes it effortless to get from one place to the next without getting lost. The bridal suite and grooms suite were stunning and a perfect place to get ready or getaway to cool down! Our wedding was a perfect rustic fairytale that I had dreamed of with the help of Furber Farm and I can't recommend them enough! Thank you for making the first day of our marriage so wonderful!

Our non-dancing guests loved the outdoor yard game options that we offered on the gorgeous front lawn, and the kids really enjoyed the pinball machine! The Furber Farm truly has it all! I would absolutely recommend this venue to anyone looking for a unique, gorgeous, memorable venue for your big day!

This stunning barn is where my husband and I got married a couple weeks ago! We absolutely love this venue and the owners! The barn is very big and open, has a super cute bridal suite and grooms room. When we saw it for the first time we were speechless. And I can't say enough about the owners, they are very friendly, personable, and accommodating. It was such an amazing experience, and we couldn't have done it alone. Angi & Wayne - because of you two our dreams came true! Thank you doesn't even do justice to show our gratitude.We would absolutely recommend this venue for weddings and events!Jalise & Andrew McWilliams

We really enjoyed Historic John P Furber Farm. The owners, Angie and Wayne, are the best. They make sure things go smoothly on your wedding day and they make you feel taken care of. Angie met with us many times to figure out the details of our wedding day, and she was so helpful. Angie knows how things run smoothly and gives great advice. The barn is a little expensive, but it is worth the money. We enjoyed the Bridal Suite and Groom Suite. It is such a nice place to hang out for the day. The caterers did a great job, and the food was awesome. The only complaint I have is that there are required vendors. We had to use Adagio DJ service which we were not pleased with. They were very expensive and did not perform well. Their equipment did not work right and the microphones cracked through the entire ceremony.This was our only complaint. I wish we could have picked our own DJ service.

Absolutely gorgeous venue. Owners meh.I am the bride mentioned in the review made by Frank S. For starters the venue was absolutely gorgeous and the venue was everything that I had hoped my BIG day to be....visually. However, I do have to agree with my father in saying that the customer service and communication was lacking. Being the bride, I was very busy all day, therefore I did not notice this as an issue until the end of the evening - when I experienced it first hand. I had 10 individuals that were in charge of tear down & removal of our decorations at the end of the evening. We had until 12AM BY CONTRACT to remove all of our items from the premises. However, immediately upon the end of the reception at 11pm, the owner began rushing us out. She was moving all of our stuff that we had designated people to be in charge of. She started throwing things on tables, in piles, and even went through the grooms room and put items and belongings in random bags. It took us weeks to get all of the belongings that were stuffed into random bags back to their rightful owners in our wedding party. Many that reside out of state. It was 11:15 pm when she began rushing and telling us we needed to be out. I had arranged for this to be done by 12AM, as contractually promised. There was no need for her to be acting as hastily and inconsiderately as she had. Things then became a mess and rushed because she was acting in this manner. She was even asking members of my family if she could throw away decorations, those of which belonged to others or that were rented. I then had to make my wedding party and guests wait on the shuttle bus for me because she was acting in this matter; becuase I had to make sure things were actually being handled how I had originally arranged. Despite what was said in the owner's response to my fathers review....she did not speak to me once throughout the entire evening, not even at the end when she was throwing my things around and rushing my family out. Also, my dad was NOT smoking in the doorway when the door was slammed in his face. He was getting instruction from me = the bride - when she slammed the door in his face. I know they had a wedding the next morning at 8AM, but that should not give her the right to treat us the way she did, or to disregard the contract that we had signed and agreed to. Angi and Wayne, thank you for letting us use your beautiful venue, it is absolutely gorgeous. However, I would suggest taking these examples as constructive criticism to reevaluate the way you handle situations and treat your paying customers in the future. My husband and I worked our butts off to single handedly pay for the venue. It should be safe for one to assume that for the thousands and thousands of dollars we spent for the venue.... that respect and common decency would be included.

The ceremony site was everything we needed, plenty of room for guests and everyone could see what was happening. I would recommend this venue to anyone looking for a rustic elegant wedding!

My daughter was married and had her reception at the Historic John P Furber Farm on 7/8/2017. From the first contact, Angi and Wayne were quick to respond and open and available to questions we had throughout the wedding process. They are very professional and great to work with- a really wonderful couple that made us feel like part of their family, they truly wanted the wedding day to be perfect for us! They have a list of preferred vendors, which was very helpful, the vendors we used all worked together and made everything look better than we could have imagined! On the day of the wedding, Wayne and Angi were both on site to check in throughout the day to make sure we knew the codes to the bridal suite, all questions were answered and to let us know how to contact them if we needed anything. At the end of the night, they helped us pull off a surprise fireworks display for the guests and helped us clean up and gather our things. All of our guests LOVED the venue, the perfect blend of rustic elegance with plenty of room for our 275 guests to move around inside and play yard games in the front yard. Not to mention how great it was to have a barn venue that was air conditioned and comfortable on a hot July day! The Bridal Suite is absolutely beautiful we used the kitchenette and full bathroom with shower- plenty of mirrors and comfortable couches which made for a relaxing start to the day for the bridal party! I would highly recommend the Historic John P Furber Farm venue and Wayne and Angi for the perfect wedding experience- we could not have been happier with everything!

The bridal suite and groom's suite was such a great added touch and allowed everything to go so smoothly because we didn't have to travel between getting ready and the ceremony and the reception. Because it has the capacity to fit 500 people, it was a great option for us with our larger wedding. We had 325 attend, and we still felt that there was plenty of room for everyone to move around and dance. Wayne and Angie, the owners, are a pleasure to work with.

Some of the frustrations we had was when my make up company would send their liability insurance info. It took thw owner of the make up company getting involved to get the issue resolved. It also bugged us that the farm had various contracts saying and allowing different exceptions for the brides they were hosting. And what really bothered us was when we requested the ac be put on our request fell on deaf ears. Then when we addressed the issue with an email their reply made it seems like we were to blame. We made the day work although we were drenched in sweat. Our photographer had to touch our photos and it worked out in the end.

I cannot express my gratitude and thanks towards Angi and Wayne for our amazing wedding day, and the experience leading up to it. They were so professional in all of their interactions, however wanted to also get to know us as a couple rather than all business. The venue is beautiful beyond words, and our guests have not stopped talking about how much they also loved it. The ceremony site outside and adjacent to the barn works so well to move directly inside for the reception. The decor is breathtaking, and therefore little to minimal decorations were needed which definitely helped our budget. We planned our wedding in just under 4 months, and it went so smoothly thanks to everyone involved.

My daughter used the John P. Furber Farm for her wedding reception a couple of weeks ago. Everyone was in awe of this beautiful place. This barn offers everything a bride and party needs to make this day a success. The bridal suite is not only beautiful, but spacious enough for professionals to do hair an make up on-site. The barn is so stunning, you can save a few hundred dollars by not decorating since there really is no need. The barn was open to us all day which gave us plenty of time for set up and hair/make up. The barn owners, Wayne and Angi were so helpful, whenever we had questions or needed anything, they were right there to help. Our experience with them for the last year and a half has been nothing but perfection. The day of the wedding, there was some confusion with the bar service and for whatever reason, it didn't appear we would have any. Wayne and Angi took control and within 15 minutes they had resolved the confusion and our bar service was on it's way. This wasn't their role or responsibility at all, but they just jumped in and helped out. They also were really great about explaining things about the barn we could do to help keep it cool and thank God it was indeed cool and comfortable as a result. They checked in on us throughout the day to make sure everything was working properly for us and were so excited to see us enjoy the barn and have a great day. They really were the kindest people and I felt like they were just more friends sharing our day. Such a great experience and I'm hoping more people we know use the venue so we can spend more time there. I would recommend it to anyone. If there is such a thing as a perfect venue - this is it.

This barn offers everything a bride and party needs to make this day a success. The bridal suite is not only beautiful, but spacious enough for professionals to do hair an make up on-site. The barn is so stunning, you can save a few hundred dollars by not decorating since there really is no need. The barn was open to us all day which gave us plenty of time for set up and hair/make up. The barn owners, Wayne and Angi were so helpful, whenever we had questions or needed anything, they were right there to help. Our experience with them for the last year and a half has been nothing but perfection. The day of the wedding, there was some confusion with the bar service and for whatever reason, it didn't appear we would have any. Wayne and Angi took control and within 15 minutes they had resolved the confusion and our bar service was on it's way. This wasn't their role or responsibility at all, but they just jumped in and helped out. They also were really great about explaining things about the barn we could do to help keep it cool and thank God it was indeed cool and comfortable as a result. They checked in on us throughout the day to make sure everything was working properly for us and were so excited to see us enjoy the barn and have a great day. They really were the kindest people and I felt like they were just more friends sharing our day. Such a great experience and I'm hoping more people we know use the venue so we can spend more time there. I would recommend it to anyone. If there is such a thing as a perfect venue - this is it.

I don't even know where to begin. This venue is like no other. Sean and I booked this venue when it was dirt. It literally looked like they just took the cows out of the barn. But if you knew Angie and Wayne you would understand why we could make that kind of gamble. This couple has transformed this beautiful barn into something so special and unique. They were so helpful on the wedding day and the days leading up to it. The venue is perfect for a big or small crowd. There is plenty of space and plenty of ways to tweak things and make it your own! It has been so fun to see what every bride does differently for their own day. I think my absolute favorite part is that the barn itself is enough. Decorations are great but not even needed here. Of course every bride wants to design their own center pieces and put their own taste to things but I would have been just as happy walking into this place without doing a thing. The barn is beautiful enough as is. My entire family was impressed with its beauty and I'm so excited to see pictures of many weddings to come in this place. God bless this couple, God bless this venue, and God bless the future couples to experience it.

PART 1 of 3I am posting this here as the owners have not answered a single question in my response and have told countless lies about me and my wedding day. I hope this doesn't happen to any other bride...My response to the Butt's replies on a few reviews here:Hello Wayne and Angi,After taking some time to decompress, I feel I am now ready to write a response to you and your replies online.First of all, I see no need to edit your posts to mention us specifically by name and wedding date and I would kindly ask for you to take that down⊠but if you feel better by doing that, go for it. However, your replies have now left me speechless as you stated, Angi. Here are my thoughts to your response, Angi:I would sincerely like to know how I was a âvery difficult bride?â What did I demand you do more of!? If you mean my âdemandâ about the cafĂ© lights... Wayne offered to add more in the sections that I wanted. We rented our own cafĂ© lights to do just that, but he offered. So blame him for that one. I asked you one simple question confirming that those would be up and you responded that I was âdriving you crazy.â The screenshot of our conversation is attached. We rented 9 strands of lights and I needed to know if I should bring a ladder to put them up or not. As a business owner, if doesnât matter if 100 people ask you the same question⊠you treat everyone with a smile on your face and answer the question. Am I supposed to know you had been âbombardedâ with repeat questions? That shouldnât matter. I asked you once. I deserve an apology for the way you spoke to me. If you mean my âdemandâ for letting us in the venue the day before⊠we are very appreciative of that and made that clear. But when we toured the venue a year and a half ago, we were told we could use the space the day before if there was no wedding then. You simply told us we needed to extend our wedding insurance, which we did. There was no wedding on that Friday, which means the venue would have been sitting empty anyway. If it was truly an inconvenience, you did not mention that or let that show.Angi, so much of your reply is a lie. The following are lies:1)âI have not received an email from this bride in months.âFalse. We exchanged emails on: 7/14, 7/11, 7/6, 6/30, 6/20⊠I could go on and I could take screenshots of all of the emails if you need me to. If you did not like to be contacted via FB messenger, you should have told me you preferred email communication, instead of holding multiple conversations with me via FB. I figured FB was easier; my mistake. 2)âI never told her that I blocked her because I couldnât deal with her anymore.âFalse. You told me straight to my face the night of my wedding when I asked you if you blocked me on FB messenger that you blocked me because âyou needed a break.â Attached is a screenshot showing that you blocked me when I tried to reach out to you about the alarm. 3)âNor did I say the bride is âdriving me crazy.ââFalse. Again, please see the screenshots attached. You mentioned âYou guys are driving me crazy with these lights.â You guys = me as one of them. As a wedding venue owner, you must realize that brides will be checking in with you constantly about their upcoming wedding. We are spending thousands of dollars for one day. We have the right to confirm information with you. You state, âDonât worry, we got this.â Well yes, a bride will worry, and has every right to. PLEASE READ PART 2 & 3

Wayne and Angi are the most hospitable people I have ever met and I have known them for 20+ years! They would go above and beyond to make everyone happy at any length (outside of breaking the law)! I have worked in this business for ever and I encountered a wedding party very much like this one! It was a huge wedding that served their guests a plated lunch and they had steak & lobster for their set down dinner, I am sure it was close to a $100,000 wedding! They also had free alcohol for the entire day, to make a long story short the wedding needed to be shut down and the police were called in because the bride & groom as well as the majority of the guests turned a beautiful wedding into a drunken brawl! I personal was not at the event that was held at the Furber Farm, but I do know first hand that when alcohol takes over often times things can get very out of hand and sometimes very dangerous! I guess if I was a Bride & Groom considering this Venue I would be very excited to know that the owners care enough about their clients to make sure nothing like that was ever to happen at their venue!! If one negative review affects your decision to use this venue then that is very unfortunate! Please contact Wayne & Angi if you have any doubts about what happened that night at their venue! Don't let one unhappy customer spoil your chance at the most beautiful and accommodating venue in the Twin Cities! Debbie Baker

Gorgeous, family-owned, classic wedding venue! I coordinate a network of hundreds of business professionals and the very first referral I pass for an event venue is the John P. Furber Farm. The grounds and amenities are second to none and are always beautifully presented. Angi and Wayne go to great lengths to accommodate all requests and are genuinely invested in your special day with you. I highly recommend touring the facility or calling with any questions you may have. I would also encourage you to give little weight to the handful of \"nameless\" negative reviews below stemming from one obstinate family. I've heard nothing but great things and will happily continue to refer business to the John P. Furber Farm!

Wayne and Angi are just the best. There are events there that honor the Military and I am so grateful for that! Every detail is thought out and the venue is perfect. To those that would treat Wayne and Angi and their staff with such disrespect, I am praying for you. Alcohol is no excuse to treat someone so badly, which was witnessed by a number of people. I really hope a video emerges of this so people will know the truth.

The barn is beautiful and redone very nicely. However, the owners need to take a class on how to treat people who are paying them thousands of dollars. I am a bride coming this October and if my venue talked and treated me the way the Butt's did I would be appalled. Wyane is very accommodating and is very helpful. Angi on the other hand seems to not handle the stress of questions or concerns very well. As she tells brides they are \"driving her nuts\". When I saw that message from my friend I was more upset than she was. Again, if my venue pulled that kind of bull I would raise hell. Not only would I be upset at that but to also block the bride from they way they have been communicating the whole time the DAY before the wedding...and her response was \"I needed a break\". Are you kidding me?!?!? Are you seriously kidding me. Yuck. I cannot even imagine running a business that way. And I am going to school to be a business owner myself. I am glad they have been great to other brides in the past but I am first to say my friend was not a difficult bride as Angi has said. I would be just as upset as the bride and groom and their families. Venues should be accommodating and respectful to those who are using their venue. You are making so much money from one weekend, how can you act so ungrateful and treat people with no respect? I just don't understand. When a bride sends a message simply confirming something your response should not be you are driving me nuts. I am now getting upset again thinking about that night all over again. I have emailed and called my vendors multiple times and have never felt like a \"problem\" to them. Overall, I am disgusted with mostly everything these owners have pulled. I will never recommend this venue to any upcoming bride and groom. I wouldn't have given a start at all but I am required to unfortunately.

I was truly warmed when Angi introduced herself and gave me the best welcome. We got to talking and she ended up giving me the whole tour. After a few more visits to other places my heart was set on the barn!I am so enthusiastic to get married at this venue! After researching many venues in the area I found there were no barns that even compared to this beauty! The amount of work Wayne and Angi put into this beautiful establishment is amazing (and what bride isn't excited for AC in a barn in the middle of July?). I also was ecstatic to find an establishment that holds a large amount of guests who are all able to be a part of the wedding.

Though a gorgeous venue and outdoor ceremony, the managers of Historic John P. Furber Farm, Wayne and Angi Butt, truly put a damper on the bride and groom's enjoyment of planning a wedding, as well as enjoying their big day. I have three instances I would like to share that I think capture the unprofessional, undeserved customer service that the bride and groom received during their wedding planning and day of. About 3 days before the wedding, I was with the bride when she sent a simple, polite, confirmation email about to Angi regarding the lighting. In a matter of seconds, she received reply that the bride was \"driving me crazy,\" but proceeded to answer her initial question. No bride or groom should ever receive such an unprofessional, rude reply from a business that is not only hosting their big day, but that is also receiving likely a large payment from the bride and groom. Of course the marrying couple will have many questions to ensure their day is exactly how they want it to be, so I was shocked at how inappropriate Angi's response was.A second instance of where I have witnessed unprofessional customer service at Historic John P. Furber Farm that was toward the bride happened the day before the wedding, as we were there to set up and decorate. When we entered just after 11am, the alarm on the barn went off, so we needed to contact someone to help us reset it. When the bride attempted to contact Angi over Facebook Messenger, the app would not allow her to send a message (it said \"this person isn't receiving messages from you right now\"). When we went through the groom's Facebook Messenger, there was no problem contacting her. Because of this, we suspected she blocked the bride from contacting her. Then, at the end of the wedding the next day, Angi told the bride that she, in fact, did block her because \"she couldn't deal with her anymore.\" To me, this is such a major disappointment for an establishment to be represented by such poor customer service, let alone be a dark cloud over someone's happiest day. What business condones representatives the option of \"not dealing\" with people? Wedding venues need people for business. These actions were totally inappropriate and unprofessional. I also witnessed some extremely unprofessional behavior on the part of the owners during the close out of the event. While hurriedly packing up food, decorations, and belongs, as we knew we were on a timeline to get out by midnight, unprofessional language and gestures were used. The bride was reduced to tears on her wedding night. No newly wedded couple or guest should leave their happiest day totally offended, upset, and disappointed by the wedding vendor. Granted, I only know a side of this story through what I have heard from the bride and groom, and from what I witnessed the week before and day of the wedding, but it is enough for me to never give them my business and discourage others to give them theirs. Though I've seen mostly positive reviews of this venue (as it is in a beautiful setting), I believe these instances represent totally unacceptable customer service for me to ever consider giving them business for my wedding, and I highly recommend future marrying couples to cautiously consider the Historic John P. Furber Farm for future weddings.

The owners go around an empty your drinks out prior to the ceremony. 1 drink beer per person or 1 bottle of wine for the brides sweet. To say the least, these owners are rude and caused 100% of all the stress from my wedding. There are a dozen barns in that area, skip this one!

Our daughter was married at the Historic John P Furber Farm in May. Everything about the day was exactly as we had hoped. The venue was set up just as we had asked at our final walk through. The indoor space was impeccably clean and the outdoor wedding site was beautiful. We had a flawless experience working with the owners. They were very accommodating and helpful. We opted for a Sunday brunch wedding and reception so it was a bit out of the norm. Angi and Wayne were so encouraging and helped us figure out the best way to execute our daughters vision of her perfect wedding day. If we had to do it over again we would definitely chose the Furber Farm! Such a beautiful place and such a great experience!

Angi and Wayne were so encouraging and helped us figure out the best way to execute our daughters vision of her perfect wedding day. If we had to do it over again we would definitely chose the Furber Farm! Such a beautiful place and such a great experience!

This venue was perfect for our wedding! We LOVED working with the owners, and fell more and more in love with the venue as the big day approached. Everything was beautiful and all of our questions, ideas, and concerns were met with great responsiveness. I had always wanted an outdoor wedding, but my dad said it was too dangerous because of the unpredictable MN weather. This venue allowed for us to have the outdoor ceremony with a backup indoor option in case of poor weather. If I went back and did it all over again I would definitely do it again at John P. Furber Farm!

If you're looking for a beautiful venue that's worth the money and requires very little decorating Furber farms is it. We only spent 900 dollars on flowers because the natural woods and beauty of the barn spoke for themselves. very clean, very well maintained. Angie and Wayne were great to work with as well.

My Wife and I were the 2016 Fairy Godmother Project MN recipients and the Folks at the Historic john P. Furber Farm were kind enough to donate their venue to our wedding package. We really can't thank you great Americans enough!!! and if donating their services wasn't enough, Wayne the owner is a VETERAN himself!!! so as you can see he is still sacrificing for others. The venue was beautiful and at a very relaxed setting. The building itself was absolutely gorgeous!! If you are looking for a fun venue then this is your place. Separate rooms for bridesmaids and groomsman's lets the fun begin early. The building is very spacious and very comfortable. If we had to get married again this would be the place, AGAIN!!! THANK YOU!!

Our wedding day was a dream come true! We had a non traditional Sunday Brunch wedding, and although it was different, not your typical wedding, we would not have changed a thing about our special day. We loved working with Angi and Wayne, as they were so accommodating to our vision, morning wedding, as well as completely organized helping with the set-up, and big plans of our day. The barn was so beautiful. I would recommend this barn to anyone for any type of event!

The John P. Furber Farm is AMAZING! We would not have changed anything about our wedding. The venue is very spacious for our wedding of 220 and is very well decorated such that it doesn't require that much effort to make it look beautiful. The owners were willing to work with us on how we wanted the table layout set up. While there were a few things they preferred not to do (i.e. moving benches, upstairs tables) at the end of the day, and in hindsight, those details were not relevant. The backyard ceremony site has beautiful scenery, and with a little personal touch, it turned out 10 times better then I ever imagined. This place is worth every penny, and we have receiving nothing but raving reviews and compliments on the venue.

This venue was dream. The barn is beautiful inside and out (and this is coming from a bride who said \"No Barns!!!\" when looking for venues). The architecture is incredible and Angi & Wayne have done such a great job with every little detail of this place.\r\rThe venue aside, both Angi & Wayne were amazing to work with. They went above and beyond and were so kind in the process (actually, we like them so much that we even said they should come to the wedding as guests!).\r\rI don't have anything but great things to say about this spot â acoustics are amazing and it photographs beautifully too! I HIGHLY recommend this venue and will continue to tell everyone I know how awesome it is.

Wayne and Angela Butt (Owner) Wayne and I purchased our historical property in 2010 so that Wayne could build his model train layout in the barn and to fix up the 1850's Italianate style home. God sometimes has other plans for us so we ended up fixing up the barn instead! Our new plan is to have weddings in the barn and on the property to raise money to fix up the historic home, take it back to 1850, and incorporate it into the venue.Now we have the honor and privilege of creating so many happy memories for so many people!
