What I love the most about Haue Valley is the atmosphere. When you walk into this venue, you feel like an extension of their family. Pair that with the breathtaking views, multiple ceremony locations, and inclusive packages - you’ve got a winning combination.
“After 125 years of cherishing the 246 acre Haue Valley Farm, the descendants of the Haue family set out to share this little piece of heaven with close friends and family. The building was built using cedar from the farm, and sawed on a mill built by the family. With the help of many, many good friends, the venue hosted its first event in April 2013. The venue was opened to the public in 2014 and has played a small part in many large events since its inception. We look forward to playing a part in yours too.”
