The Venue at the Reed's all began in 2004 when Rob and Tonya Reed purchased a piece of land just outside of Spirit Lake Idaho. At the time, the piece of land was one of the biggest eyesores on the Spirit Lake Cutoff Road. The land was littered with copious amounts of trash everywhere. The Reed's, including their two boys at the time in 2004, who were 11 and 4, had worked tireless hours that too
k over a month to clean up the property before they would even show it to their friends and family. Years past, with many upgrades along the way all the while working jobs out side of the home. The dream of the wedding venue started long before, but came somewhat of a reality when their oldest son, Jaylen in 2015 asked if he could have his wedding at his childhood home. Many more hours went into preparing what was one of the most beautiful weddings ever. Jaylen and his beautiful wife Chloe were married on August 15, 2015. In February of 2018, The Reed family lost their home in a fire that was caused by the dryer reciprocal, that ended up making them move into their half way finished shop. At the time of the fire, the concrete was not completed, nor was the insulation, and in the cold of winter the Reed's pushed through and made it work, with the help of friends and family so they would have a place to call home again. They fully now live in the shop and turned it into what they call "The Shouse" (Shop House) and will be forever grateful for those that helped lift them in the worst time of their lives. The Reed's have persevered through many challenges along the way and always keep pushing forward to their dreams and long time goal of having a wedding venue. They've been great examples of dreaming and building and never giving up. Their property has been the host of many occasions over the past 18 years, large and small and now they are excited to share it with others in the community. Sitting on 10 acres, this outdoor venue is surrounded with mature trees, luscious green grass and manicured landscaping. A park like setting is what most people say, and even has a large playground for the kids!
