Beyond beautiful!

The place is beyond beautiful and perfect!! We had our New Years Eve wedding here and it was everything we could have dreamed about. It’s rustic and the exposed brick is so pretty. The deck is AWESOME. Amanda was wonderful in the planning phases and really made it a breeze. Star was so sweet and really made our day go by smoothly. All the staff was awesome and did amazing. I love the bridal suite downstairs! It’s a perfect place to get ready in. Kevin initially showed us the venue on a walk through and we immediately fell in love. It’s perfect for more intimate weddings (we had about 60 guests). Taking the golf cart around to take wedding pictures was so much fun and a unique feature of this venue! The trains going by were awesome haha. Loved this venue beyond words and would definitely have other events here as well!

The Perfect Venue!

We fell in love with the Cowan because of the unique setting and the family and staff that runs the venue! Amanda and our day-of-coordinator, Lexie, were very accommodating to our needs and responsive anytime I contacted them. They really went above and beyond to make our wedding day special, from going out of their way to buy peach juice (for the getting-ready mimosa bar) and seltzers for the reception. Our guests commented to us several times that this was the most unique and beautiful venue that they have ever been to for a wedding, and we agree! We would recommend this venue again and again and are so happy that we were able to have our wedding here.
