From the father
of the bride..."Thank you so much
for all that you and your family did
for my daughter's wedding. Your home
is beautiful, the gardens are
wonderful, the food was fantastic
and the hospitality super.
Everyone had a wonderful time and
continue to remark how fun it all
was."
From the parents of the groom...The
wedding pictures were awesome. What
a really nice surprise! You folks
are the best and I can't tell you
how much I liked working with you
and Leith. Many thanks for
realizing what an important time
this is in a family's life and doing
all you can to ease tension, and
make things relaxed and fun. You
are simply the best! Our friends
have continued to mention how much
they enjoyed the venue of Khimaira
Farms. I like your way of doing
business. You do what you say you
will do, but you give a baker's
dozen . . . more than we bargained
for. It is just so special and so
rare. Our deepest appreciation...
From a guest...I absolutely LOVED
everything about your farm!! I
must admit to being a little
hesitant to support my best friend's
decision to get married at a 'goat
farm'...until I visited your farm
and met you and your family!
Everything was so absolutely
glorious.
I hope (my friend) left you a very
generous tip! I couldn't
imagine how anything could have been
any better. You more than
exceeded our expectations and hopes
- you were awesome! I hope
people support your 'plant a tree'
program as that is so special and
such a super idea. I know (my
friend) asked for guests to donate
to some worthy causes instead of
giving them gifts. I wish they
would have asked folks to donate to
your operation! I can't
imagine a more worthy cause!
To see how you practice sustainable
and responsible farming as well as
operation of your venue for events.
'Act locally' is exactly what we
should do...and donating to someone
who practices whey they preach
to help sustain the operation is the
best gift to a worthy cause that I
can imagine. Please find my
donation enclosed, and I will be
shopping at your online store!
If feels so good to know I am
helping a small farm and an
environmentally supportive business
(loved those recycling reminders
everywhere!) as well as the place
where my best friend pledged her
life and heart to the love of her
life. I wish you the best of
success...you deserve it! I
will be back when I find the 'right
man'!!
From
the parents of the bride...Jim and I
wish to thank you so very much for
allowing us the privilege to have
Cassie and Danny's wedding at your
heavenly farm. You were
tremendous in your generosity, care,
attention to detail, and hosting.
The most beautiful and fun wedding
we have ever been to! You all
worked so hard and we can' t thank you
enough for all you did to bring such
happiness to all of us. You
have the most beautiful farm and
surroundings...I love the area, the
warmth of the people and the
beautiful mountains...
From the
couple..."We want to thank you both
so much for everything you did to
help make our wedding such a special
day. We could not have asked
for more wonderful hosts or a more
beautiful place to get married.
Both of our families commented on
how much they enjoyed meeting and
talking with you. You and your
farm will always hold a special
place in our hearts. Thank you
again for everything."
From the
couple..."We wanted to send you and
your family a HUGE THANK YOU for
making our wedding so perfect!
It could not have been any better!
Thank you for all of your time,
energy, kindness and hard (sweaty!) work! I really don't think
we could have had the same wonderful
experience anywhere else in the
world. In fact, none of us
wanted to leave your beautiful place
at the end of the weekend! You made
our dreams come true...many many
thanks.
From the
couple..."We really appreciated
everything you did to make our
wedding so great! You guys are
great and I am in awe of everything
you do! Thank you so much!
From the Mother of the Groom: We had
the best wedding ever imagined
because of you & your farm. It was
lovely. Everyone loved it so much.
I can't thank you enough for all
your help. It felt like home.
From the Mother
of the Groom:
Thank you so much for all you do and
the joy we shared at our son's
wedding. I don't think I've ever
met someone as kind and thoughtful
as you and your family are. It is a
real pleasure to meet and deal with
"real wholesome people".
From the couple: We cannot
thank you enough for the beauty and
joy you have added to our wedding
and marriage. You all always seen to
go out of your way to make our lives
happier and we really do appreciate
it. Our wedding was like a
fairy tale, just perfect.
Everyone involved keeps reminding us
over and over. You all are the
nicest couple and have left us with
a lifetime of wonderful memories
from the start, that is the best
gift. Thank you so very much
for the wonderful ornament, we hung
it on our tree, our first Christmas,
and it was very special. You
both are amazing!
From Photographer
Aaron Spicer's blog:
This past
weekend ... I ended up in Luray, VA
to celebrate with Martha and Daryl.
The above shot (see photo top of
page
here) is one that I
really like of Martha and Daryl.
Their wedding took place at the
Khimaira Farm in Luray. The farm
is just that, fifty seven acres of
pure rural goodness. Linda and Leith
converted one of their barns into an
event venue a couple years ago when
their daughter decided to get
married on the property. They’ve
done a wonderful job of making you
forget that you are actually down on
the farm, and could host anything
from a black tie affair to a hoe
down. The ceremony took place a few
yards from the barn in a cleared
pasture looking out at the mountains
in the distance. That mountain range
saved us quite a bit of trouble, as
it acted as a natural barrier
between us and the rain that was
trying pretty hard to make it to the
farm.

Beautiful Locale for Weddings &
Ceremonies: It is not often that
we write a special entry to promote
a business or person, but sometimes,
something comes along that requires
mentioning. When a couple is
confronted with all the planning and
execution of the dream wedding, we
know this can take its toll.
So when something comes across my
path as a wedding minister, which is
exceptional, I like to pass it on to
my friends. I know most of you are
married already, but may there will
be a friend, family member or vow
renewal in your future in need of a
locale. The place I'm speaking
of is called "Khimaira Farm" located
in the beautiful rolling mountains
of Virginia near the town of Luray.
You may explore more information
about Khimaira Farm at their
website ...the contact person is
Linda Campbell who is a very
professional and delightful
coordinator. The feedback we
have had from couples, so far, has
warranted this information being
passed to you today.
Blessings, Rev
