I have always dreamed of getting married at the Millwick and now that the day has passed it was an incredible venue for our wedding. From the very beginning, their communication was direct, clear, and easy - they were always responsive to our questions and available to help. The quality of their work was absolutely beautiful. I found it easiest to work with vendors that have previously worked there as they knew how each other operates and it made everything run smoothly especially when it comes to a planner and catering. The venue itself was stunning, and their team went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly. We couldn't have asked for a better wedding experience, and we highly recommend Millwick to any couples searching for the perfect venue.

The complete freedom to make your vision a reality is what makes us unique.
