Our Story

Amanda & Stacey

Who We Are

We both grew up in small-town, country settings where life moves a little slower, friendships run deep, and gathering together is a way of life. Those roots shaped our love for meaningful moments and heartfelt celebrations.

Amanda has always had a natural gift for bringing people together. She pours her heart into every detail, creating spaces where laughter flows freely and memories are made with ease. With her warm spirit and genuine care, she’ll laugh with you, cry happy tears with you, and make you feel completely at home. I’m a bit more reserved, but I share the same love for celebration—and every once in a while, you’ll even find me singing along with the band.

At The Hills of Luella, we believe your wedding day should feel personal, joyful, and unforgettable. Whether you’re walking down the aisle, raising a glass with the people you love most, or sharing a quiet moment by the campfire, our hope is that you’ll feel supported, celebrated, and surrounded by love every step of the way.

The Natural Choice

From the very beginning, my wife and I have been deeply involved in every decision that shaped The Hills of Luella. From the architectural design of the barn and gazebo to carefully selecting the sawmill that cut and dried each post and beam, every choice was made with intention and love. We spent countless hours learning from construction experts and fellow venue owners, determined to create a space that would serve couples beautifully for years to come.

We chose the road less traveled, building a true wood barn when others suggested shortcuts. It took more time and more investment, but we believed your wedding day deserved something genuine—something warm, timeless, and real. We are endlessly grateful to the Amish families whose craftsmanship helped bring this dream to life.

Above all, we feel incredibly blessed to share what God has entrusted to us. When you celebrate at The Hills of Luella, you’re not just choosing a venue—you’re becoming part of our story. Be warned: you may just find yourself welcomed into our little family. We love people, and we love creating memories that last a lifetime.
