| Polen Farm is one of the area’s premier wedding facilities for both indoor and outdoor receptions and ceremonies. Polen Farm boasts a beautiful 19th century farmhouse, barn and gazebo situated on 15 picturesque acres on Bigger Road. Our facility has several features setting us apart from other area facilities. Polen Farm is one of the only places where you can have an outdoor ceremony with the security of shelter in the case of poor weather. We are one of very few facilities able to accommodate both your ceremony and reception on the same property. Finally, to ensure your special day is everything you hoped it would be, we provide felxibility in catering. You can select from our preferred caterers, or you can pay a small surchage to enable you to bring in the caterer of your choice. When you combine these features with the beauty and elegance of a historic home and grounds, there is simply not a more perfect venue for your wedding. |
