“What made you decide to have your wedding at Stone Gables Estate?”
Lyndsey: “The horse drawn carriage!”
Sarah: “The minis and alpacas! You can’t get animals for your wedding anywhere else!”
A month doesn’t go by without hearing a bride say she selected Stone Gables Estate as her wedding venue because of the unique Amenities available to her. “As soon as I heard I could arrive on a carriage, I knew this was my venue,” said one excited bride. The grand entrance with dad by her side is bookended with a fairy tale exit with her new husband. The animal-loving bride can add-on a petting zoo, complete with two goofy alpacas, two gentle mini horses, and two silly mini donkeys. Guests are surprised by the unexpected “guests-of-honor,” and they love to participate in photo ops with the animals. The estate is also home to deer, horses, foxes, wild turkeys, mini long horns, babydoll sheep, and JR, the pig.

The special “extras” aren’t just for the girls. The groomsmen can start their day with skeet shooting right on the estate. This competitive activity provides the guys with a memorable experience that sets the day apart from all other weddings in which they have participated. Campfires and yard games are other favorites of our groomsmen.
If you are an Ironstone Bride and you want your entire bridal party to have a unique entrance to your Bell Tower ceremony, consider booking the tractor-pulled wagon. It can bring parents, the bridal party, and the bride all the way down through the orchard to the ceremony location. This special entrance is perfect for the couple who loves the rustic, farm-vibe which all of Ironstone provides. Just in case of rain, we have you covered, too!
Schedule a tour today and be sure to ask your friendly Sales Consultant about our unique Amenities that can “Wow” your guests and make your wedding day the one that will be talked about long after the send-off!
