For couples who crave a one-of-a-kind experience and zero planning stress
Imagine walking into your wedding day with nothing to worry about—and everything designed just for you. With the Surprise Wedding Package, you hand over the reins, and we create an unforgettable celebration rooted in your personality, values, and vision.
We get to know you—your style, your must-haves, your must-NOT-haves. Hate banjos? No bluegrass. Love bold color? No pastels here. You tell us who you are, and we bring it to life—while keeping the final design a surprise until the big day.
This isn’t a “secret” wedding where guests don’t know what they’re attending. The surprise is the design, not the occasion.
Perfect for couples who:
- Value creativity and trust their vendors
- Want to be fully present on their wedding day and
- Prefer ease over endless planning decisions
We offer three creative tiers designed to match a range of budgets and personalities—from minimal and meaningful to wild and wonderful.
How It Works
- Venue Tour
Start with a visit to Hidden River. Get a feel for the land, the layout, the animals, the housing options, and us. - Private Dinner & Consultation
If you’d like to explore further, we invite you to a private dinner with our planning team and head caterer. You pay for dinner and a small consultation fee—and we simply spend the evening getting to know you. - Select Your Surprise Package
At dinner, we’ll present three tailored options. Together, we’ll determine whether we’re a good fit—and which level best matches your taste and budget. Pricing ranges from slightly less than our Sweet and Simple Package to just beyond our Mountain Elegance Package and more for a fully customized Wildcard experience.
