Fairy tale wedding venue exists in Bolingbroke
BY VICKI SMITH
I f you are looking
looking for historic
and modern con
veniences for a
southern style wed
ding or just a good ole
fashion get-together, then
look no
further
than Re
nee and
Allen
Jones’
Morgan
View
Farm lo
cated in
Boling
broke at
the cor
ner of
Highway 41 and Shi
Roads.
Allen & Renee Jones
Renee
and
Allen
have
owned
and
operated
the farm
for 25
over 100 weddings at Allen
weddings and events
held there. She has host
ed many families from
Middle Georgia as well
as from around the coun
try at this little farm in
Bolingbroke.
Renee, with her three
border collies leading the
way, gave me the grand
tour of the farm and the
facilities. Around every
corner was another new
and lovely surprise and
the grazing, sometimes
curious horses only
added to the welcoming
environment. Decorated
with bits of antiques,
burlap and fancy chande
liers, the rustic elegance
of the farm will please
everyone.
and Renee Jones’ Morgan View Farm in Bolingbroke over the last five years.
Renee enjoys every
aspect of the weddings
and parties as each one
is unique. She says wed
dings should not be
rushed but savored. She
therefore offers the farm
to only one wedding per
weekend. You will find
all the amenities you
need, such as indoor/out
door ceremony sites;
bride and groom quar
ters; reception bar with a
prep kitchen area; tables;
chairs; pews; linens; dec
orations and the stellar
service Renee and her
staff provide.
She even has a kids’
corner with carrots to
feed the horses and yard
games such as cornhole,
croquet and horseshoes.
She says most of the
weddings are held under
the grove of pecan trees,
but there are other
options on the farm, such
as the 7,000 square-foot
covered pole barn arena
with a dance floor and a
huge brass chandelier.
Renee has already
hosted 28 weddings so
far this year and says
the 2015 calendar is
already filling up. She
did mention they do not
have events in the
months of January,
February, July or
August. She said with
the engagement season
upon us, she expects
next year will be one of
her busiest.
If you are interested in
your own private
tour/consultation, contact
Renee today for your
very own tour around
the farm on her golf cart
and discover why
Morgan View Farm is
the perfect chic barn set
ting. For more informa

years.
Renee
has
always

lessons
and
boarded There have been
horses
on the
farm (and still does), but
about five years ago her
niece asked her if she
could get married on the
farm.
She said she was
surprised at the
request but happily
agreed. She then
realized she wanted
to open the farm to
other brides and
grooms. With help of
her family and long
time employee and
right-hand man,
Samuel, she began
turning the barns
and facilities into
what I'd call the per
fect event venue.
Since then there
have been over 100
