The 2026 wedding season has officially begun at Vanderwende Acres ✨

And somehow, each year becomes even more romantic than the last.

From golden hour kisses beneath the trees to four-legged family members joining in on the celebration, these are the moments that make this place so special. We are already witnessing so much love, joy, and beauty this season, and we truly cannot wait for all the memories still to come.

To all of our 2026 couples, thank you for allowing us to be part of your story 🤍

💛 Thank you for an incredible day at Vanderwende Acres 💛

We were truly blown away by the turnout at today’s Hippity Hoppity event. Seeing so many families out on the farm meant so much to us, and we hope many of you were able to enjoy a special day together 🐰🌸
We also want to take a moment to acknowledge something important.

Due to the wind, the helicopter had to fly higher than we originally planned, which made the egg drop less spread out than expected. Combined with the size of the crowd, we know that some children, especially younger ones, were not able to collect eggs, and we understand how disappointing that can be.

To help create a fun experience for everyone, our team also placed eggs on the ground ahead of the drop, and we worked to offer a variety of free activities throughout the day, including pony rides, crafts, sack races, bounce house, face painting, and time to meet the Easter Bunny and take photos. We truly hoped these moments would add to the overall experience for all families.

That was never our intention. This event was created to be a fun and memorable experience for families, and we truly regret that it did not feel that way for everyone.

We do plan to bring this event back next year, and we will absolutely be implementing changes and reorganizing it so that it is a great experience for all family members, especially the littlest ones 💛

We are taking this feedback seriously and will use it to make future events even better for all who attend.

Thank you again for your support, your patience, and for being part of our community. It means more to us than you know 🤍

🐰✨ Wait… an Easter egg hunt… from the sky? ✨🐰
Yes… you read that right.

This Saturday at Vanderwende Acres, we’re bringing a brand new tradition to Sussex County… and it’s something you truly have to see to believe 💛

At 12 PM, an airplane will fly over the farm and release thousands of pastel Easter eggs from the sky, gently falling across our fields for families and children to gather below ✈️🥚🌸

It’s our take on an Easter egg hunt… just a little more magical.

When you arrive, each guest will receive a bag—so all you have to do is show up, look up, and enjoy the moment with your family as the sky fills with Easter eggs 💫

We’ve never seen anything like this done locally, and we’re so excited to share it with you.

Some places simply feel like the beginning of something beautiful.

Where open skies stretch endlessly. Where golden light settles softly over the fields. Where vows are spoken beneath the quiet strength of a stone fireplace.

At Vanderwende Acres, romance meets timeless countryside elegance. A place rooted in history, designed for moments that last forever.

Together is a beautiful place to be.
