Top Mount Dora Venues

We appreciate your coming to see us today. My name is Tay, but everyone calls me Ty, and these are my husband Craig and our three fur babies, Cooper, Jackson, and Loony. Our 15-year love story has always centered on our friends and family, boating the beautiful waters of the Puget Sound, Caribbean, and Florida, traveling to new places and trying out new restaurants, but most importantly, always making sure there was a reason to gather and celebrate every moment in life, no matter how big or how small! The past 15 years of my life have been spent working in the wedding and event planning industry, while the past 20 years have been spent traveling the world with Craig. It was only a matter of time before we realized our dream of owning our very own farm and using it as a venue for weddings. We are overjoyed to have the opportunity to share with you today Cypress Creek Farmhouse, a Central Florida Barn Wedding Venue that we have built with a lot of love for you and our community to celebrate all of life's most important and memorable occasions! We are happy to have you visit! We can't wait to finally put a face to your name and lend a hand with the planning of your upcoming event. The Farm, which spans forty acres, is a wondrous place known for its rustic elegance, breathtaking waterfront sunsets, and beautiful natural scenery. As you approach the entrance of the campground, you will be greeted by a variety of stunning farm animals, a picturesque country road lined with myrtle trees, and the peacefulness of the campground's crystal clear lakes and creek. ​ Both of the waterfront locations that we have chosen for our wedding ceremonies are breathtaking in their own unique ways. Cooper Lake offers an unobstructed view of an ample lake, beautiful sky, and mature Florida trees, whereas Jackson Lake is home to a picturesque dock that is surrounded by cypress trees and sunset views. Not only is Cypress Creek Farmhouse a fully operational cattle farm, but we also take great pride in making our property available for the enjoyment of the local community as well as for weddings, corporate events, private events, photography, and other uses! Our Central Florida Wedding Barn is designed to give you a feeling of light and airiness while still maintaining a rustic appearance. ​ From the moment a couple books their date with us until the moment their big day finally arrives and beyond, our mission is to provide them and all of our other clients with an enjoyable experience. The selection of your professional vendors is made completely up to you thanks to the flexibility offered by our packages. On the other hand, should you require our assistance, we would be happy to personalize an all-inclusive deal just for you!
