There are some places you build from the ground up.

And then there are places you're lucky enough to become a small part of. 🤍

Factory at Potato Chip has been standing here, collecting stories, for generations.

Long before there were weddings in the barn, flowers filling the gardens, music playing across the property, or couples walking through our gates imagining their future here, this place had a life of its own.

It was a working potato chip factory. A family built a business here. People worked here, dreamed here, raised families here, and left behind pieces of a history that we're still discovering and preserving today.

That's something we never want to lose.

We love making this property more beautiful. We love watching the gardens grow and finding new ways to use these incredible old spaces. We love seeing a bride getting ready in the house or standing back and watching a barn that's been here for generations fill with people celebrating a brand-new marriage.

But underneath everything we've created, we still want this place to feel like this place.

The old wood matters. The imperfections matter. The newspaper clippings matter. The stories of the people who came before us matter.

We're not trying to erase its history and turn it into something new.

We're trying to take care of it while giving it another chapter.

And maybe that's one of the things we love most about Factory at Potato Chip.

There are a whole lot of old stories here and still so many new ones left to be written. 🤍

Some vendors don't just show up to your wedding they become part of the experience. 🎨🤍

Watercolor by Riley Goans

If you're looking for something unique, personal, and completely charming to add to your wedding day, consider having a live watercolor artist create beautiful little works of art right there during your celebration.

Watching each painting come to life is an experience in itself, and your guests get something so much more meaningful than a traditional wedding favor - a tiny piece of your wedding day they can take home and keep.

She recently created a painting for the owners of Factory at Potato Chip, and we fell completely in love with her work. The detail, the personality, the softness of the watercolor... it's just beautiful.

And honestly? She fits the Factory vibe perfectly.

Creative.
A little unexpected.
Personal.
Artistic.
And something your guests probably haven't experienced at every other wedding they've attended.

We love weddings that feel like the people getting married — and little details like this are exactly what make a celebration memorable.

So if you've been looking for that one extra thing to make your wedding experience a little more special, this is your gal. 🎨✨

Go check out her beautiful work and give her some love! 🤍

We have a crazy busy Fall 🍁 at the Factory this year! Almost every weekend booked, and we are so grateful!

And today was the perfect day for the most beautiful sweet couple.

We try to be as invisible as possible on these days. We’re here to answer questions, help with parking, and just make sure everything runs smoothly.

And today we got to open the curtain for the bride! It was so special and she was STUNNING. 💜

Happy Wedding Day! 💒

What if your wedding venue could become anything you imagined? ✨

Factory at Potato Chip has the character that gives you a beautiful starting point but your wedding doesn't have to fit into one specific style.

Want romantic and candlelit? 🕯️
Fill the room with glowing tapers, soft florals and twinkle lights.

Dreaming of something timeless? 🤍
Bring in ivory linens, neutral blooms, greenery and classic table settings.

Want something a little moodier?
Deepen the florals, layer the lighting and let the historic details do the rest.

That's the beauty of choosing a space with personality and creative freedom.

You don't have to choose between the charm of a historic venue and the elevated wedding you've been saving to your Pinterest board.

Bring us the vision.
Bring us the screenshots.
Bring us the completely ridiculous 147-photo inspiration board. 😂
Then make the space yours.

Because we don't want every wedding at Factory at Potato Chip to look the same.
We want to see what you do with it. 🤍✨
Ready to start imagining your day here? Come tour the property and see the possibilities for yourself.

Brides aren't the only ones making a statement this fall. 🍁✨

Wedding parties embracing rich seasonal textures and colors is our list of FAVORITE THINGS.

Think...

🤎 Velvet bridesmaid dresses
🍷 Deep burgundy suits
🌿 Olive green accents
🧡 Burnt orange ties and pocket squares
🥂 Champagne satin
🍂 Mixed earth tones instead of everyone matching perfectly

The result feels effortless, timeless, and full of personality.

Against the warm wood of the barn and the natural beauty of the property, these colors photograph beautifully and make every wedding gallery feel like autumn came to life.

We're here for all the cozy fall fashion. 🤍

Let’s talk wedding FOOD. 🤤🍽️

We LOVE a menu that doesn’t have to feel overly formal just because it’s your wedding.

In fact, some of the most fun weddings we’re seeing are skipping the traditional plated chicken-and-potatoes dinner and serving food that actually feels like the couple.

🌮 Taco bars with ALL the toppings
🍕 Wood-fired pizza served fresh throughout the evening
🔥 BBQ with brisket, pulled pork, mac & cheese and all the fixings
🍔 Gourmet sliders and fries
🥘 Family-style comfort food passed around the table
🚚 Food trucks pulling up for dinner or a late-night snack
🥞 Breakfast-for-dinner or brunch weddings
🍝 Pasta bars where guests build their own plate
🥔 Loaded baked potato or mashed potato bars
🌭 And even elevated versions of the foods you grew up loving

You can make it elegant without making it stuffy.

Serve incredible food. Put on some music. Fill the tables with the people you love. Let everyone grab another helping, stay awhile, and enjoy themselves.

Because your guests probably won’t remember exactly what your napkins looked like...

But they WILL remember if the food was really freaking good. 😂🤍

One trend we're seeing this fall that we absolutely love?

🍂 **An "unplugged" ceremony.**

More and more couples are asking guests to put their phones away for just 20 minutes.

No screens.
No cameras.
No distractions.

Instead...

They ask everyone to be fully present.

To hear every word.
To watch the walk down the aisle.
To laugh, cry, and celebrate together without viewing the day through a phone.

The result?

More authentic moments.
Beautiful professional photos without a sea of cell phones.
And a ceremony your guests actually experience instead of record.

At Factory at Potato Chip, there's something magical about watching everyone simply be present in such a beautiful, historic space.

Sometimes the best memories aren't the ones you capture...

They're the ones you truly live. 🤍

One of the cutest new trends! Creating little experiences your guests will remember long after the last dance. 🤍✨

At a venue like Factory at Potato Chip, there are so many fun ways to make your wedding feel interactive and uniquely you.

Some of our favorite ideas:

🔥 A s’mores station around the fire pit
🍿 Gourmet popcorn bar for late-night snacking
🌸 Build-your-own flower bar where guests take home a bouquet
📸 Vintage photo booth with props
☕ Cozy coffee and hot cocoa station
🥂 Signature cocktail or mocktail bar
🍪 Milk & cookie bar before the send-off
🍺 Whiskey or bourbon tasting station
🍬 Nostalgic candy bar filled with your favorites
✍️ Audio guestbook where loved ones leave voice messages instead of writing in a book
🎨 Live wedding painter capturing your ceremony
🎶 A vinyl record guestbook that becomes artwork for your home

The best weddings aren’t always the ones with the biggest budgets.

They’re the ones that surprise people.

The ones where guests wander from one little experience to another, making memories all night long.

Our favorite part? Watching every couple make this historic property feel completely their own.
