Venues & Event Spaces near Baker, FL

“South Laurel Farms was the perfect venue for our wedding, and I couldn’t imagine our day anywhere else. The only thing I knew for sure when we started planning was that I wanted an outdoor ceremony with a barn reception. After touring the limited options in the Crestview area, choosing South Laurel Farms was an easy and confident decision.

The property is absolutely breathtaking. We held our ceremony outside by the pond, enjoyed a charming chocolate‑bar social hour under the large tree, and then moved into the barn for our reception. We were also allowed to come out the night before to set everything up, which made the entire weekend feel calm, organized, and stress‑free. To top it all off, we spent the night in their new, cozy honeymoon cabin — the perfect ending to a perfect day.

Beth was incredible from start to finish. She welcomed me out to the venue multiple times so I could work through my décor ideas, and she has what can only be described as a full “Hobby Lobby” of flowers and decorations available for her brides to use at no extra cost. Other venues charge per item, sometimes up to a dollar each, so being able to use her collection saved me a significant amount of money.

On the day of the wedding, Beth acted as our event coordinator and kept everything running smoothly. When we first met, she asked what I envisioned for my big day, and I told her, “I just want to show up, eat, have a good time, and go home.” She delivered exactly that — seamlessly.

I cannot recommend Beth and South Laurel Farms highly enough. The venue, the service, and the experience were everything I hoped for and more.”

“Beautiful venue! Attended a meeting here but would be perfect place for any special event-birthday, anniversary, wedding, reception. Elegant and classy! Clean with great amenities. Friendly owners. 10/10 -would highly recommend!”

“My newly husband and I got married at the Warrior's Hall and we were more than impressed!! Not only with the big, beautiful room, where our ceremony and reception took place, (including the kitchen area and 3 separate restrooms), but with the EXCEPTIONAL customer service from Deborah Dodge and even the supervisor of housekeeping, Teresa! If we could give 100 stars, we would! So glad we chose this place to start our journey!?”

“Nothing like the previous reviews
Location is great
Hotel is decently clean
No mold or roaches like in previous reviews
Room did have a slight marijuana smell even though it’s non smoking room
I don’t understand hotels allowing this to happen
Overall I would stay here again”
