The first time L walked in the barn her eyes filled with happy tears. Right at that moment I knew we would be hosting their wedding. They emailed me to book their date before they left the parking lot and the rest as they say is history!
A parked his prize possession right in front of our American flag for photos and it was perfect! Thank you L & A for allowing us to be part of your love story! We loved hosting your July Wedding at Bradstreet Farm! Cheers!

That is what it is like to have your wedding here at Bradstreet Farm. We want you and your wedding party, parents and friends to all be a guest at your wedding! We have all been involved in a wedding where you have to work on the wedding day and it takes the fun out of it. That is not how things are done here at Bradstreet Farm. We let you fully enjoy the day like a guest! Right from Day 1 when you book your wedding here at Bradstreet Farm, we start putting together you day-of details so we can run your wedding day for you! As your planning details come together, we keep updating your wedding day file so that when we meet at your Final Meetings a month prior to your wedding, we are just crossing the t's and dotting the i's- we have the blue print to successfully run your wedding day for you! This way you (and your family and friends) can truly be a guest at your own wedding! What an idea, right?!?
We make weddings easy. We take the stress away so you can enjoy your day! That is the Bradstreet way. Each week we will be posting a blog on various topics from our catering partner, Woodland Catering! A note from Woodland Catering looking forward to the 2021 Wedding & Event Season! It’s 2021. From the perspective of a small business owner, the last 12-months have been a steady railway ride down into the abyss of uncertainty. That is not to say that it was a waste of a year or even that it was all negative. It was the uncertainty that was anxiety inducing but the hard times can be building blocks on which we construct the success of our future. We were lucky enough to be able to pivot our business focus and continue to create revenue even as our event schedule slowly but steadily vanished before our eyes. I wouldn’t wish a repeat of 2020 on anyone, business owner or not, but I also know that my business will be better and stronger because of it. We are the sum of all of our experiences and often we grow more from the bad than from the good. All of us are smart enough to understand that the circumstances of our lives will not change simply because our arbitrary calendar changes over from one year to the next. The success or failure of the past 12 months of our lives are dependent on our own actions and circumstances and have nothing to do with the number on the calendar. All of that being said, I welcome the cross over into 2021 as a mental delineation signalling a season of change. With the vaccine upon us, but still months away from being administered to the masses, uncertainty still hovers over us. We have spent much of our time over the last months determining how we can adapt to our new normal. It is our goal to provide for our clients the same experience we promised them. While in some cases things may look slightly different, we are committed to going above and beyond what would typically be required of us to ensure that, for at least one day, we can lift the clouds of the anxiety we have been living with and immerse our clients and their guests in the sunshine of an experience they will never forget. In a more practical sense, there is much we are doing to provide minimum interference with the plans we have set forth while still maintaining adherence to the guidelines. It is almost a certainty that part of our wedding season will occur with state Covid guidelines in place. Limits on guest counts and guests interaction, under certain circumstances, will be a concern. The ability for guests to self serve any food or beverage will be in jeopardy. We have developed service techniques and overall event flow to allow for our client’s guests to receive the same experience they expect without knowing that any changes have even been made. We are fully staffing all buffets, stations, bars, and hors d’oeuvre displays. We have increased table service to limit the congregation of guests at service areas. Our servers and managers are trained in gently moving the flow of guests in certain directions to encourage social distancing and the use of outdoor or more ventilated space. Our extremely close relationship with the staff at the Barn at Bradstreet Farm allows for integrated planning and fully cooperative focus on event days. Masks will continue to be a staple of service and kitchen employees for the foreseeable future and our kitchen staff have been Covid certified in food handling. While we are a food service operation, what we really provide our guests is peace-of-mind at a time that can be anxiety ridden if not handled properly. We endeavor to continue to remove stress and worry from our client’s lives and allow them to fully experience a very important moment in their life so that they can create the memories that we all look back on fondly. Our tactics have evolved, our mission has not.
