Overnight lodging pairs with either your Day wedding or your Elopement — stay the farm itself the night before and/or the night of your wedding. It's a favorite for couples who want an easy, unrushed morning, a bridal-party after-party at the Milkbarn, or simply more time together on the farm.
| Pairs with | Your Day Wedding Package or your Elopement Package |
|---|---|
| Overnight lodging | The Milkbarn, family-style sleeping for up to 22 guests |
| Add-on cost | $1,500 per night — the whole building, up to 22 people, exclusively your guests |
| Milkhouse add-on | Lounge / game room next door — large couch, two flat-screens, half bath, kitchenette, mini-fridge — $400/night (recommended) |
| Rehearsal dinner | Included at the Milkbarn for up to 50 guests when you book the night before |
| Checkout | 10am the morning after your final overnight — book two nights and skip a mid-stay checkout entirely |
On the Fairland Ridge side of the farm, Barndo 1, 2, and 3 serve as overflow lodging once your group outgrows the Milkbarn's 22-guest capacity — modern European interiors behind a sophisticated country exterior. Each has 5 bedrooms and 3–4 full baths: two ground-floor units (one bedroom each, full kitchen, bath, in-bath laundry, private patio, connected by an adjoining double door) plus a spacious upstairs 3-bedroom unit (one a loft) with its own full kitchen and in-bath laundry. For weddings, each Barndo rents as a whole building at $1,500/night (up to 22 guests) — which guarantees every guest under that roof is one of yours. Booked as part of your wedding, lodging reserves up to 18 months ahead and carries no local hotel taxes.
🐮 Add a farm animal experience for your farm weekend — Snacks with Jack-Jack from $600, a Highland cow walk-around from $600, or the Cow Cocktail Hour for every guest at $1,500. 🎈 Ask about a balloon ride — flights from $700, tethered rides from $1,000.
Day Weddings come with the full run of the farm — use one site, or several. Elopements include the spot you choose. Either way, yours is the only wedding here that day.
Indoor elegance for up to 250, rain or shine — ready rooms, catering kitchen, accessible restrooms.

AnythingReviews from couples who were married here — their own words, first name and month only, never reworded.
Prices below are starting points for budgeting purposes — not final quotes. Your actual cost depends on guest count, selections, and availability, and will be confirmed during your inquiry.
Officiant, catering, florals, DJ, planning, and the Cow Cocktail Hour — bundled so your wedding is fully handled, start to finish. Choose "all options" or pick individual services when you inquire.
A sweet farm meet-and-greet with our mini donkey, Jack-Jack, right at arrival — plus a selection of Jack's favorite snacks, sweet to salty (dietary preferences welcome).
A guide walks one of our Scottish Highland cows out to your group for photos — the quick, signature Cedar Pond Farms moment.
A Highland cow at your cocktail hour for every guest to meet, photograph and feed — guide-handled, at the Cedar Thicket or the site you choose. Included in the All-Inclusive Add-On.
A relaxed, 2-hour guided visit with our Scottish Highland cows — more time, more photos, more of the herd than a quick Cow Visit. A favorite for wedding parties the day before the wedding. Tell us how many people will join in the inquiry form and we'll calculate your total.
A larger, hands-on animal experience in our Triangle Corral — up to 3 animals and 4 farm guides, for one full hour. It's a single flat rate for the whole group rather than priced per person, which makes it an efficient option for weddings of 100+ guests.
An evening on the water — guided catfishing, a farm campfire, and a family-style waterside meal of fresh deep-fried catfish, slaw, and made-from-scratch hushpuppies.
A full, straightforward catered meal for your guest list — one meat, three vegetables, drink, rolls, and salad. Plate count is based on your guest count in the inquiry form.
A private dinner or brunch for the two of you — bride and groom, or any couple — prepared with locally sourced ingredients. A favorite for Elopement couples, and available for any package.
Scale the private-chef experience up for your group — a full locally-sourced, plated meal at $100 per plate. Tell us how many plates in the inquiry form and we'll calculate your total. A great fit for Overnight guests and rehearsal dinners.
A full hot air balloon flight over the farm at sunrise — an unforgettable morning for a small group.
A grounded, guest-friendly balloon experience — everyone gets a turn, no flight required.
Extra ready-space at the Grand White Barn — changing area, seating, hand sink, mini-fridge. Included free with every package. Want more room to get ready? An overnight stay at the Fish House gives the groom his own private space to change, with more value than a ready-room add-on.
A lounge and game room next to the Milkbarn — large couch, two flat-screen TVs, half bath, kitchenette, mini-fridge. Perfect for a bridal-party after-party.
Five-bedroom private lodging with modern interiors, ground-floor units with private patios, and a spacious upstairs 3-bedroom suite.
Use of the golf cart on Cedar Pond property for the day — get your wedding party and gear around with ease (driver not included).
Add a complete extra day to your venue rental — for a rehearsal dinner, or simply more time to decorate before your event.
Get pulled off in a covered wagon with a Just Married sign for your grand exit.
Booking your overnight stay directly with us — Milkbarn as your primary space, Barndo 1, 2 & 3 as overflow for larger groups — keeps the whole farm exclusive to your wedding party for your stay, rather than sharing a building with unrelated guests.
Every wedding here is priced around your date, so rather than posting a number that fits nobody, we build your real pricing and email it to you — two clicks, about 30 seconds. From there a real person on our team follows up with availability and next steps.
Sometimes — weekends are typically reserved for our larger Day weddings, since that's the best use of a limited number of weekend dates. But if your date is less than 90 days away, a weekend elopement opens up as a last-minute opportunity. It's a great option for local couples who want a weekend ceremony without the lead time a Day wedding usually needs. Get your pricing above and we'll show you exactly what your date costs.
Yes, on Day weddings. Book a Day wedding less than 90 days out and you'll get an extra 30% off — deeper than our standard everyday discount — since it helps us fill dates that would otherwise go unbooked. You still get the full working farm experience: Highland cows, modern amenities, and a team focused on capturing the moment, just at a better value based on timing. Choose your date on the calendar in our booking form and the price updates automatically.
Every package includes a rain-plan backup at no extra cost — the Grand White Barn and its covered Grand Veranda. Rain or shine, your ceremony happens on schedule.
The Elopement package includes exclusive 4-hour venue access on your chosen day. Additional time can be approved in advance and is billed at $500/hour. Day and Overnight packages have built-in access hours; talk to us about extending those during your inquiry.
Venue rental does not include catering. For Elopements, lunch on-site is available for a separate fee. For Day and Overnight weddings, we're happy to share our preferred vendor list during your inquiry — or, even easier, ask about our All-Inclusive Add-On, which bundles catering, flowers, a DJ, photography, an officiant, and a wedding planner into one package so you're not coordinating vendors on your own.
No — a planner isn't required. What we do require is a staff member on-site the day of your wedding, which is a $200 fee unless you're using a planner who's already familiar with the venue. If you'd rather skip that altogether, our All-Inclusive Add-On includes a planner as part of the bundle.
Yes — it's available on both the Elopement and Day packages (and by extension, on Overnight, since Overnight builds on one of those two). It's one of our most popular add-ons: officiant, catering, florals, DJ, planning, and the Cow Cocktail Hour for all your guests, all bundled together. For Elopements, budget around $3,000 as a starting placeholder — for Day and Overnight, we'll build a custom quote based on your guest count and which services you select. When you check the box on our inquiry form, you can choose "all options" or pick individual services.
Yes — the Private Chef Meal for Two is $400 and is a favorite for Elopement couples, though any couple on any package can add it. For larger groups (rehearsal dinners, Overnight guests), ask about Private Chef Dining, a full locally-sourced plated meal starting at $100/plate.
Yes — overnight farm lodging (the Milkbarn, Milkhouse, or a Fairland Ridge Barndo) can be added to an Elopement, not just a Day wedding. The Milkbarn is your primary space, up to 22 guests; for larger groups, Barndo 1, 2, and 3 serve as overflow. We keep overnight lodging booked as part of your wedding on purpose — it means the whole farm stays exclusive to your group, with no unrelated guests sharing a building during your stay.
The Milkbarn sleeps up to 22 guests, family-style. For larger overnight groups, ask about adding Barndo 1, 2, and/or 3 on Fairland Ridge — $1,500/night each for the entire 5-bedroom building (up to 22 guests), so it's only ever your people under the roof.
It's about who else is staying on the farm during your wedding weekend. The Milkbarn is your primary overnight space, with Barndo 1, 2, and 3 available as overflow once your group outgrows it. Booking these together as part of your wedding keeps the entire farm exclusive to your group — so you're never sharing a building with unrelated guests you didn't invite.
Pricing at Cedar Pond Farms flexes with your date, so we build it for your day rather than posting a one-size-fits-all number. Tell us the basics and we’ll email your personalized pricing right away — it takes about 30 seconds.
