You’re not just booking a Vermont wedding venue—you’re choosing the backdrop for a celebration that’s uniquely yours.
Meet Your Hosts
We are Tom & Jena, your hosts at Follow Your Heart Farm. Our own love story was quite a journey, eventually leading us back to one another and to Vermont.
Here, we are excited to welcome you to our Farm, where we finally tied the knot, and we help couples celebrate their own unique love stories.
Designed for Memory Making
The Farm is designed with togetherness in mind. Our sprawling, 100-acre property offers countless spots to gather, connect, and create memories that will last a lifetime.
The main home is a gracious place to leisurely begin your wedding morning with your wedding party. Our woodland trails invite long walks with old friends, and the fire pit is the perfect spot for a final toast under the stars.
Every corner offers a new opportunity for connection — and unforgettable photos.

Celebrate Your Way
Here, you have the freedom to craft an experience that truly reflects who you are.
We believe your celebration should be as personal as your love story, so we don’t impose a preferred vendor list. Instead, you’re free to work with the team that best fits your style, vision, and budget.
At Follow Your Heart Farm, the weekend is your canvas — ready for the celebration you’ve always imagined.
Make Yourself At Home
For a few special days, our woodland retreat becomes entirely yours. With exclusive access to the property, you and your loved ones can settle in, unwind, and fully embrace the celebration.
The spacious main house comfortably accommodates up to sixteen guests across six inviting bedrooms. Pile onto the couch in the Great Room for late-night conversations, sip your morning coffee in the sunlit solarium, or wander along woodland trails to discover hidden scenic spots.
Every space — inside and out — is designed to bring you and your guests together for a weekend to remember.

Follow Your Heart Farm has a rich history as a cherished gathering place in Vermont.
Originally known as Homeplace, it was built in 1969 by the Huessy family. The matriarch, Mariot, welcomed guests to her bed and breakfast, offering stays in the three-apartment homestead she and her husband built for their eleven children. With park-like grounds, stables, and even an equestrian ring, Mariot hosted weddings, reunions, and holiday gatherings filled with love.
Today, we’re excited to carry on her legacy, inviting couples to create their own memories in this beautiful woodland retreat.
When we first discovered this property in July 2022, we knew it was something special. Nearly 30 years after meeting as high school seniors—Tom as an exchange student from New Zealand and Jena as a native Vermonter—we were engaged, drawn back together by a connection that spanned decades and continents. Follow Your Heart Farm became the perfect place to celebrate our love, and on July 9, 2023, we welcomed friends and family from near and far, to share in our union.
Every celebration adds a new chapter to the Farm’s story — and we’d be honored for yours to become part of its history.
