A Note from the Owners
The Pearl is the crowning jewel on years of hard work, both professionally and personally. For over 25 years, we have owned and operated Crawford Farm. What started as a small, run-down farm on the edge of a little town has truly become our home and haven. It’s where we raised our four children, where we’ve spent thousands of hours doing work we love, and where we have created some of our sweetest memories. Our sincere hope is that we can share that last treasure with countless more people through The Pearl.
From the very bottom of our hearts, we hope the time you spend with us at the Pearl creates special and lasting memories for you and your loved ones. We are blessed to have the opportunity to serve you and hope our little hill can be a blessing on your special day.

A Note from the Owners
The Water’s Edge is family owned and operated. It sits between two beautiful 3 acre lakes. My husband and I were married at The Water’s Edge in September 2012. My family loved the property so much that we decided to purchase it in November of 2012. We had the perfect weekend for our wedding and wanted to be able to continue to do that for other couples. We have made improvements to the property over the last 8 years and always strive to make our couples happy. My favorite part about our wedding venue is that we offer a weekend package for weddings. Our weekend wedding package gives couples ample time to prepare and enjoy their wedding. Set up for the ceremony and reception can be completed on Friday. The bridal party can spend the night on Friday night and use the cabin to get ready for their day. After the wedding is over the newlyweds can use the cabin for a honeymoon suite and they have until Sunday at 11 a.m. to get cleaned up from the weekend. We want our brides and their families to feel as relaxed as possible while they’re here. We are here to assist you along the way and help answer any questions you have. Our hope is that you are able to have plenty of time to prepare and have fun while you’re here for your wedding.

A Note from the Owners
"You never know what you'll get when you plant a pumpkin! Our farm has always been a place filled with memories and fun, so after retirement from the automotive business, we planted some pumpkins and invited the public to our little sanctuary. Suddenly we had families enjoying something we took for granted, after several couples inquired about Weddings and other events, we decided to start doing weddings and other events. Our old pole barn had some enlarging to do, so we added plenty of space, using native Missouri lumber and rocks from the river, for steps... All with a feel for the old farm way. With a beautiful secluded setting, bordered by the Crooked River. Our little business grew, we kept it simple here. People who come here feel welcomed & relaxed & ready to celebrate their big day. So you see, at Crooked River Farm LLC, we grow hopes, dreams, and memories too." Jerry & Susan Hanson

Our Favorite Feature
It’s always hard to choose just one feature, but for this venue I have to say it’s most definitely the waterfall ceremony. Why? Because you don’t see this type of ceremony often, it’s unique and absolutely breathtaking. I might be a bit biased because I was married by a waterfall. I remember standing up there looking into my husband's eyes as we said our vows thinking, “this couldn’t be anymore beautiful!” The waterfall ceremony site at WhipPoorWill Wedding Venue is absolutely gorgeous. What I also love about this venue is that you get the best of both worlds. How so? Well, when I got married I really wanted a barn venue, but I loved the waterfall venue we toured. I ended up choosing the waterfall venue, but really missed not having the barn reception! With this venue, you get both… a big rustic barn decorated beautifully, and your romantic waterfall ceremony!

Our Favorite Feature
We love the rustic charm, beauty and character this beef cattle farm venue has to offer. They’ve really worked hard to think about every detail of your wedding day. They have thought about everything from where the bride & groom will get ready, to having multiple ceremony options! Covered outdoor areas, lots of beautiful space and a gorgeous barn! Because there are tons of areas to capture Pinterest-worthy photos, we had such a hard time choosing photos for this post! They have a decor closet you can use, which is awesome! However, this venue is so beautiful, cozy and clean… you won’t need much! If you’re looking to have a customized wedding unique to you (that looks like you pulled it straight from a Pinterest board), this is the place!
Rose Oak Acres FAQ
What prices do packages start at?
$2,000.00 - see website for all prices and services included.
How does catering work?
We have a preferred vendor list with local, talented caterers on it which is given to all couples. They are encouraged to hire a caterer from this list for food service.
How do decorations work?
Many of our couples will utilize our décor closet with over 300 pieces of décor (included with all of our wedding packages) and bring in some personalized items of their own to use. We often hear that the venue has so much natural character that it requires minimal added décor.
What is the rain plan?
If planning an outdoor ceremony and a chance for rain, many couples will get married underneath the covered deck or move the ceremony inside to our platform area. Also, in spring of 2021 we will be installing a covered concrete area (pavilion with three open sides) for ceremonies.
A Note from the Owners
We offer affordable multi day packages so that you and your family can enjoy extra time celebrating this life milestone together. Our couples enjoy the peaceful farm atmosphere and the one on one customer service received.

What is my relationship to the featured wedding venues? I am always transparent with my audience. These venues were researched and hand selected by me to feature in this post. They were charged a small fee to cover my time in creating their feature as this provides a means for me to earn an income. I reached out to them and offered the opportunity, they did not seek me out looking to advertise. This post is for educational purposes only. While I believe all of these venues are great to consider, I am just a blogger and am not responsible for your personal experience with any featured venues. These are simply just suggestions for you while making your own decision!
