Welcome to Agritopia Weddings & Private Events

Be it a casual setting or extravagant affair, your event will be a memorable experience at Agritopia Farm.

There is something both grand and intimate about time spent among trees, gardens and lush landscapes.

You will fall in love with our four unique and inviting spaces: The Farm House, The Garden and The Orchard and Final Assembly.

The Farm House

The Farm House is just perfect for a smaller, more intimate wedding or event. You won’t even feel like you are in Arizona! Adjacent to The Farm House is The Porch, which can be enclosed for the privacy of your event. This sweet setting can accommodate up to 50 guests.

The Garden

The Garden can accommodate up to 200 guests for a romantic ceremony or 100 guests for a reception or private gathering in the heart of The Farm. The large trees shade the peaceful setting and grapevines line the arched pathways to make an idyllic atmosphere unlike any other.

The Orchard

Fragrant orange trees and peach groves make an event in The Orchard truly one of a kind. This distinctive outdoor setting can accommodate up to 250 guests and is exclusive to Agritopia Farm. Celebrate your wedding or private gathering into the night under the stars of the desert sky.

Final Assembly

Final Assembly is the only indoor space offered on the property inside Barnone with an urban vibe. This cool space accommodates up to 40 guests for an intimate rehearsal dinner, shower or gathering. This is the only location on property where you can provide your own food or beverage.

“Our experience with The Farm at Agritopia was unbelievable. We had our venue cancel on us a month out from the wedding - a disaster - we are so lucky to have found the Farm at Agritopia as our day was meant to happen there and we are so happy it did! It was gorgeous. The team put together our wedding in less than 30 days, and absolutely made the day go flawlessly. Not to mention our guests had a blast at Barnone following the dance!! What a beautifully staffed, scenic, and well located place!“

Mireille (Miray) Helm

owner

After ten wedding seasons as the owner of everybody loves flowers, specializing in wedding florals and events, I have always dreamed of curating beautiful weddings and amazing events at Agritopia Farm. The idea came way before opening my floral shop at Barnone and for the past three years, I have worked with many amazing vendors, friends and family to make this dream come true. Since I’ve been behind the scenes at hundreds weddings as a florist, I knew what potential Agritopia Farm would have to offer as one of the best outdoor experiences in the Valley.

I’ve poured so much of my heart into this venue space. With much faith, I have had the opportunity to plan proposals, elopements, rehearsal dinners, showers, wedding ceremonies and receptions. They are everything I dreamed them to be. I am truly honored that Agritopia Farm allows The Helm Events to welcome clients to this unique property. To continue to cultivate the property, a portion of the rental fee for every event at Agritopia Farm contributes to purchasing seeds, equipment. Every detail of every event has been designed with much love and passion for our clients and their guests, including our vendors too.
