Dreams do come true

A dream of mine as a child was to get married in s big red barn, when I met Debora and heard her story in bringing life back to this one of a kind gem I knew it was the one! Debora and her staff are charismatic and hard working, they helped us out along the way to create a dream come true!

Dream Wedding

We got married at the Heritage Centre in June and it was nothing shy of amazing! We live on a farm close by and Deb and her staff were so accommodating in letting us bring several big pieces of farm equipment to the barn and parking it there to complete our day! This really shows that anything here can be made possible. I really loved the fact that Deb already has so many decorations and things to choose from, this really saved a lot of stress leading up to the day! Overall I wish I could marry the same person all over again... I wouldn't have changed our experience here one bit. An exceptional venue and staff, without all their efforts our day wouldn't have gone as flawless as it did. 10/10 recommend this venue to anyone!

The sweet and beautiful "Coco Shanelle" and her handsome groom wowed the crowd when the arrived in a John Deere Combine! Oh My what a site. Shanelle was so very beautiful that Gerrit could not stop smiling. She is a sweet and kind girl and we were so very happy to host her wedding. Keep waving to me from your Tractor! Love and Best Wishes - Debora

Beautiful venue and wonderful staff!

There were so many extra's we could use for decorating, this is a beautiful venue with lighting and décor before we added our own decorations. Booking with Debra was so easy and on the wedding day the staff was amazing. They saw all details and tented to them before we needed to think of it. It was a memorable day and I wouldn't hesitate to use this venue again! Great for photos inside and out!

What an Amazing Spectacular Venue!!! Our guest were blown away

This venue is amazing and the owner is very flexible and easy to work with. Everyone that attended the wedding were blown away by this place!!! There is a house on the premises that the bridal party were able to use to get ready for the wedding which made it so easy and stress free. I can't say enough about this venue and I would recommend it to one and all!!! Thank you for making my daughter's wedding (Teana and Trevor Sedgwick October 2, 2021) so spectacular!!!

July 9th 2022 wedding!

Deb was great to work with and the venue is absolutely stunning. They took care of the set up, all I had to do was very minimal decorations because the inside is so beautiful you don’t even need any!! Very easy going and the day of the wedding was completely flawless. We brought out some old trucks for photo ops! Deb was extremely flexible with dates as we were initially booked for 2021. She made sure we had a date we wanted for 2022! I would recommend this beautiful place to anyone.

A Prairie Treasure

The MVE Heritage Centre, known by most as Cremona's Big Red Barn is the most beautiful wedding venue in Mountain View County. The restored barn is breathtaking for an elegant wedding. You can choose to add your own personal touches but the wood itself is gorgeous and highlights the beauty of the bride. Families planning a Wedding on The Prairies must book this venue. Our daughter's wedding day will forever be remembered for the warmth, seamless flow, and fabulous hospitality. The MVE Heritage Centre is a treasure at reasonable cost.

Recommendation for MVE The Heritage Centre

We are beyond blessed to have had our wedding at MVE The Heritage Centre. This venue was a dream come true! It brought us the modern/rustic look we always wanted. We had our perfect outdoor ceremony with our barn room reception! We loved the venue and the staff. Special thanks to Deb who worked with us to make our dream come true!

Absolutely amazing! Highly recommend

This is the most amazing venue and hosts. Debora is the sweetest most accommodating host, and was available and willing to help from start to finish! The facility is magical. Both the guys and girls of the bridal party were able to get ready on the property but in separate spaces, this made it so easy and relaxing. Debora made sure the children also had a space with TV, movies and toys to keep the little's busy. Even though we only had 20 guests, we were able to use the whole space and nothing was off limits etc. use of kitchen, all bathrooms, various ceremony spaces and outside areas. Even more amazing was that I was able to bring in my own decor and Debora incorporated it and made it even more beautiful with the use of what the facility offers.
The layout of the facility is perfect! Guests are able to use all spaces yet feel as if they are not separated. The licensed bar was stocked and the use of the galvanized trough is the perfect touch! The property is gorgeous and there is ample opportunity for amazing pictures at various locations. I cant say enough how absolutely amazing the venue is and even more amazing the hosts!

COVID Friendly Wedding

Because of COVID, at the beginning of April, with an extremely heavy heart, my fiancé and I decided to postpone our wedding scheduled for June 12th, 2020.
As the day approached I was loosing my mind with emotion about how “our special day” that had been in the works for 2 years, was not so special anymore. The Heritage Centre came up as an add for COVID friendly weddings, and with the restriction being having outdoor events of up to 50 people, we were contemplating just that. Deb had gotten back to me within a half hour, little did she know that she quickly became the fairy god mother of my dreams! She had told us what the COVID friendly packages were and the remaining dates available for 2020, June 12th being the first. With talking to my amazing parents, and my fiancé’s amazing ex, we were able to have his little girl and hit the ground running to plan a whole wedding in 17 days! That sounds nearly impossible, but Deb and Wendy made my dreams and even more possible! The Tuesday before our big day, my mom, my soon to be mother in law and I went to start decorating the outside portion that we were able to use for dinner (includes a bar). At 12:30 pm we were hit with another update regarding COVID, but this time it was in our favour! We were allowed 50 people inside, which meant we were able to get married in the breath taking historical barn!
Friday came, and Deb and Wendy were the star of the show! I am still getting messages and phone calls saying it was the best wedding and Deb and Wendy were the most wonderful people! I can not thank this facility, Deb and Wendy enough! Just the simple “you look beautiful” made my night even that much more spectacular! Thank you so much! Our COVID wedding was meant to happen, and you guys made it happen! I will never be able to repay you enough!

Beautiful Location

I got married at the Heritage Centre last month and it was magical. The venue is just stunning! We didn't need much to dress it up. We took our photos at the venue and there are so many different scenes. We took pictures in the barn, house, forest area, and fields. The owner (Deborah) is so accommodating especially during this time of uncertainty. If you book this venue you won't be disappointed.
