More Than a Wedding. A Lifetime of Meaning.

We’re Dean and Jenny, and we created Heartland on Heritage to celebrate something we believe deeply in: Marriage matters. Family matters. And the love we share can shape generations.

Your wedding is one beautiful day, but your marriage is a lifetime of promises, challenges, forgiveness, laughter, and love. We believe that bringing people together to celebrate that commitment is about more than creating memories—it’s about celebrating the beginning of a life and legacy built together.

Our Christian faith inspires our purpose. We believe God designed marriage with meaning, Jesus demonstrated the power of sacrificial love, and the way we serve others should reflect that love. Our mission is to celebrate marriage, strengthen families, and share God's love through genuine hospitality.

At Heartland, we bring together the beauty of God's creation, a private country estate, and the warmth of family and friends to create an unforgettable wedding weekend. But our greatest hope is that you leave with more than beautiful photographs and wonderful memories. We hope you leave reminded of what matters most: the people you love and the life you're building together.

Heartland on Heritage — Celebrate Marriage. Strengthen Families. Reflect God's Love.    💕Marriage Matters 🙏BEFORE THE WEDDING, TAKE A MOMENT TO PRAY & REFLECT ON THE PROMISE OF FOREVER AT OUR VENUE🙏. Wedding planning can be overwhelming, but let's not lose sight of the true treasure. Dates, flowers, food, music, photography, and guest lists are all important, but they pale in comparison to the sacred bond you're about to form. 

At Heartland, we invite you to pause, breathe, and pray before the big day.  Ask for guidance, wisdom, and strength to build a love that lasts. Take a quiet moment, take a nature hike on our wooded sanctuary of peaceful trails, reflect at our waterfront reflecting pond, and envision the life you're about to create together. No pressure, no expectations - just an opportunity to connect on a deeper level. Remember, this is more than just a wedding - it's the beginning of a lifelong journey together. 💕 

Marriage matters.

Family matters.

People matter.

You and your future matters.

We are more than a venue.  At Heartland, we are here for you to support you with resources: Prayer, Faith & Finances, Vision, Purpose, setting Marriage Goals, Conflict Resolution, Forgiveness, and Stewardship. Your wedding day deserves to be beautiful, and your marriage deserves even more.  We want to help you start strong!  

And for your guests, we can add some excitement into the mix (between the ceremony and reception while you are enjoying breathtaking photos in our manicured grounds and rolling hills or seasonal sunflowers backdrop) by offering your guests the opportunity to feed our on-site horses, alpacas, donkey, and for those brave enough, get licked by our friendly cows - with memories made for a lifetime!  We also offer a kids ninja area, a full weekend, bridal suite, on-site Luxury Lodge and plenty of event spaces in our Rustic barns!
