Terrific Wedding Venue Location

Wonderful location for your "dream wedding". From the separate amenities that house your whole wedding party to the modern reception hall, the large outdoor patio, the more intimate gazebo area the, firepit lounging area and the wide-open fields. This is just the place to carry out your personal idea of the perfect wedding. Let your imagination run wild. Nancy and Barry were terrific hosts.

Perfect Wedding Weekend

We hosted our wedding at Bush Meadow Farm on 3/30/2024 and had the perfect wedding weekend. Barry and Nancy were so helpful and accommodating during the entirety of our planning process and throughout our stay. We were able to have such a fun and beautiful wedding with everything we wanted to do. Having our wedding at BMF allowed us the flexibility of doing a lot of the food/drinks, etc ourselves. Would recommend the farm to anyone looking for a fun wedding experience.

Awesome Gem on CT’s boarder town.

Nancy and Barry are amazing host who went above and beyond to ensure our stay was the best it could possibly be. We had the venue from Friday-Sunday for our wedding and even with pouring rain and a change of plans, Nancy and Barry made themselves available at all times and gave us many options of how to utilize the property in more ways than imaginable. My wife and I highly recommend Bush Meadow Farms for all events, not only formal weddings.

UCONN Visit

We could not be more pleased with the hospitality shown our family by Barry and Nancy. They thought of everything from providing breakfast starter foods to keeping an immaculate, well equipped property. Being city dwellers the farm setting and the beautiful animals were a real treat. Please accept our thanks and our wishes for all the best in the future. The Fallons

Baby Shower at Bush Meadow

We loved working with Barry and Nancy at Bush Meadow Farm in Union. They made party planning so easy by meeting with us prior to booking to tour the venue and provided multiple local business ideas for catering, floral, food and party rentals, ect. They also provided accurate estimates to help with planning and were truly wonderful to work with. Barry and Nancy went above and beyond to make our baby shower perfect for us and were so accomodating. In addition, the grounds are beautifully kept and the venue is very clean.

Great Hosts and Well Appointed Apartment

Barry and Nancy were terrific hosts. They were flexible on check in and met us when we arrived. They provided a tour of the apartment which is in pristine condition. They added a real personal touch by providing us with eggs, bread, cereal, milk, orange juice, coffee, and snacks! And Barry and Nancy were extremely responsive to the few requests we made. While we had no time to use them, there was a fire pit, sitting area, and dining area outside. We will be sure to take full advantage of these amenities next time, noting that the apt is situated on a beautiful lot. And for anyone looking for a rural farm wedding/shower venue, give Barry and Nancy a call. Can’t wait to return next time.

The Friendliest Farm in Union

We had a lovely stay at Barry and Nancys farm. The apartment is way better in person that in photos. Large, super clean and just about every anemitie you may need in the kitchen and elsewhere. Everything is thought through with care. There is a in person check in and check out which was a nice unexpected gesture. In a world of cell phones and impersonal business practice it was a warm welcome that made us feel like our happiness mattered to the hosts. Barry and Nancy are both delightful and fun people. We intend to return! Thanks Kapplans!

Perfect venue for a wedding!

We knew from the moment we met Barry and Nancy, that our wedding dreams would come alive at Bush Meadow Farms. The space allowed for so much more than we could ask for....from a beautiful piece of property to hold our engagement picture shoot, to a place to host our rehearsal dinner and then have our amazing wedding. Being able to come in early Friday and start setting up, and then having Sunday morning to break down and clean up, made this experience not rushed and convenient. The Vrbo apartment allowed our close family that was here from out of state to stay with us and spend some quality time together. This wedding venue allowed for a night of dancing, playing lawn games, roasting marshmallows by the fire, and overall a perfect spot for an outdoor ceremony and indoor/outdoor reception. We recommend this space for weddings, or any other event. Thank you to Barry and Nancy for your hospitality and warm welcoming nature. We couldn't have asked for a better wedding weekend!

A hidden gem in Connecticut

We booked this property kind of last minute to attend a family reunion a few towns over. It looked great from the pictures, was able to accommodate our party number, and allowed dogs which was part of what we needed and it was a farm. I thought it would be a cool place for us to go stay. It turned out to be one of the best stays I’ve experienced since being a user of Vrbo. Nancy and Barry actually came and met us and took us through the property. They left little amenities and touches that are so important when you’re traveling. For example the first night you get there you check in -the refrigerator was stocked with breakfast items so our next morning we would have things for breakfast. They were constantly in communication with us, checking to make sure everything was ok and asking if we needed anything. This was a beautiful property. The building we stayed in had been newly renovated. Outside there is a fire pit and pergola. Peaceful with lovely landscaping. Space for strolling and looking at the cows. What totally surprised me was that there is the option for farm tours and other activities! They also have to capacity there for large gatherings- which I am keeping in mind for the future. When we were checking out,, they asked if there was anything that could be done better. My only comment was I wished I could’ve stayed longer!!
