Wayside at Cottom Farm

Welcome to Wayside!

Thank you so much for considering Wayside at Cottom Farm as the place to celebrate one of the most important days of your life. It’s an honor we don’t take lightly.

Our story began in 1972, when our family laid down roots on this 70-acre farm. What started as a place for family and hard work has since grown into a venue full of life, love, and unforgettable memories. In 2010, we opened our gates to couples looking for something more than just a venue — a place that feels warm, real, and filled with character.

At Wayside, you’ll find rolling pastures, towering trees, and open skies — the kind of setting that naturally lends itself to moments that matter. Our ceremony sites are peaceful and scenic, and our wooden pavilion, complete with fans, lighting, and plenty of charm, offers the perfect space to gather and celebrate.

Whether you're dreaming of a sunset ceremony overlooking the hills, or a cozy evening dancing under string lights, Wayside offers a backdrop that’s as beautiful as it is relaxed. We're tucked away in the quiet countryside, yet still close enough to town for easy access and convenience.

We’d love to show you around, hear about your vision, and help you create a day that feels true to you. From our family to yours — welcome to Wayside.
