Ninety-seven acres of high prairie near Hartsel, bought in the summer of 2026.
Today it is mostly open land and sky — staked layouts in the grass, water stored and waiting,
a plan set in motion. This page is where you watch it become a venue: permit by permit,
road by road, stone by stone.
Where Things Stand
What’s done so far — honestly
We would rather show you a short, true list than a long, glossy one. The land is ours, the
plan is drawn, and the first machinery of county approval is turning. There are no buildings
yet — what stands out there today is a beginning, and we’re proud of every line of it.
✓Summer 2026The land secured — roughly 97 acres of open prairie in South Park, near Hartsel.
✓Summer 2026Site plan finalized — the driveway, a 200 × 100 ft parking field, the fire turnaround, and the altar sites, all staked out.

Six steps, one straight line
No shortcuts and no mystery — this is the whole path, in order, from the permit desk to
the first vows.

See It With Your Own Eyes
Visit the land yourself
Current access: horseback and off-road vehicles only. There is no road to the altar. Plan access for every guest and vendor before reserving. Horses and transport are not included; no riding partnership is confirmed.
Momo’s Grange is the built ceremony altar; the Artemis Altar is coming in November. The rest of the property remains in development. Contact us about conditions before visiting.
There are no guided tours — and that’s by design, not neglect.
The estate deliberately runs without on-site staff, and every dollar that choice saves is
passed straight to our couples in lower pricing. You get the land to yourself, at your own
pace, and a better rate for it. If you have questions before or after you visit, write us at
info@alabasterestate.com —
a real person reads every note.
Coming Soon
A live construction camera is planned. It isn’t installed yet —
but once it is, you’ll be able to watch the altars rise from anywhere, day by day.
