The team at Chapel In The Pines Wedding And Banquet Center was an absolute pleasure to work with. From the moment we first reached out, their communication was efficient, kind, and they were always on top of things, quickly solving any problems that came up. The venue itself has such a charming, "Bridgerton-esque" vibe, it's cute, quaint, and truly feels like a magical sanctuary. When our music didn't work properly, they fixed it so quickly and made it as close to our choices as possible. Their coordinator, Amanda, was also fantastic and ensured everything went smoothly on the day of the wedding. It was everything we had hoped for and more, I had not even seen the venue until the day before, and it exceeded our expectations with its beautiful, reasonable pricing. I would suggest this venue to anyone looking for a party space that can accommodate their needs.

Beautiful venue and stunning for the price compared to a lot of locations. Really easy to work with but we found ourselves repeating details A LOT and yet some of them got lost anyways - for example, I had made a full allergy list for the reception organized by table, and yet staff brought me (the bride) food I am dangerously allergic to. It was fixed quickly but annoying because I’d spent so much time preparing this and details got lost anyways. This happened in multiple ways. Several things—ceremony set up, rehearsal timeline, etc—were easily fixed, but shouldn’t have needed to be fixed in the first place, given the amount of prep we did.
