My daughter and her husband chose Milton Ridge for their wedding venue. I live on the opposite coast so I had no opportunity to have a look myself. She and her husband were very happy with the layout of the property and the location. She assured me that staff were warm and friendly as well as very professional and that all questions were addressed promptly and in great detail. My daughter and her husband felt listened to and respected by everyone at Milton Ridge. I was anxious but it was their wedding and they had done a lot of research! I am overjoyed that they chose Milton Ridge for their very special day!! I spoke to many guests and family members that day and evening; everyone had high praise for the couple’s choice of venue. The property is self-contained with a beautiful turn of the century chapel on the lower level of the property and a very large bricked patio on the upper level; with an enormous wooden gazebo at one end and tiered garden area at the opposite end. Indoor or outdoor wedding?? Hard to choose as both areas are sooooo lovely. The Bridal suite and Grooms quarter are in a building adjacent to the chapel on the lower level of the property. Another turn of the century building with Bridal suite, porch and porch swing on the ground level and the Grooms quarters on the 2nd level via a private enclosed stairway; providing total privacy for both parties and their respective entourages. Both areas were very well appointed, comfortable and large; plenty of room for multiple people in each area to get ready for the big day! The Reception Hall was on the upper level with a porch and short stairway leading from the hall to the outdoor patio. The Hall was fresh and bright with plenty of room for DJ, tables, dance floor, bar and buffet without feeling overfilled or crowded. Bride and Groom chose the bar-b-que menu for their dinner; it was beautifully presented, delicious and plentiful. No one left Milton Ridge hungry that evening! The wait staff and bartenders were all very attentive and had obviously been very well trained at table service and bar service respectively. Music was provided by a DJ who was contracted by Milton Ridge and was included with the package that my daughter and her husband had chosen. The selection was a mix of old and new with the focus of getting the guests up and dancing. He was very good at his job and he accomplished his goal! Last but definitely not least; the photographer; also contracted with Milton Ridge! He was amazing!!! The unique shots, quality and beauty of his work left us speechless. He was everywhere, but never in the way, always inconspicuous and watching for that perfect candid shot. Even his posed photos had a very relaxed casual look about them. All photos were organized and available to the newlyweds on the Milton Ridge website within 10days of their wedding day!! ALL pictures belong to her and her husband to print, copy and share with whoever they wish!! Milton Ridge exceeded my expectation and I would never hesitate to recommend them to anyone!!

Words cannot adequately describe how grateful we are to Jessica Hewlett and her staff at The Cove and Fawn Lake Country Club for the perfect wedding reception for our wedding on Saturday, October 30, 2021! However, we want to share some of our thoughts. When we came to visit The Cove at Fawn Lake Country Club the first time in June, we knew immediately that this beautiful new venue was the perfect place for our reception. We were impressed with Jessica’s professionalism, calm demeanor, and attention to detail. From the tasting experience to the coordination and planning prior to the big day, Jessica led us through this stressful process with caring, respect, and understanding, while being the consummate professional. Once the big day arrived and we entered the venue, our jaws literally dropped and brought us to happy tears at how perfectly Jessica set up the reception. It was magical! She coordinated the events of the afternoon and evening with precision, leaving us with no worries and just being able to enjoy our special day. Our guests raved at how wonderful the food was as well as the service. They were also in awe of the incredibly beautiful venue and lakeside setting. We both looked forward to this day all our life, and Jessica delivered our dream Wedding reception. As we said, it was simply a perfect day none of us will ever forget, and we are incredibly grateful to Jessica and The Cove at Fawn Lake!

An enchanting venue! Just what we were looking for to host our daughter’s Quinceañera this May. Bel Air is as gorgeous in person as it looks in the pictures. Fitting our theme (enchanted forest), Bel Air has a very well-kept garden, a gorgeous path of aged trees, and of course the spacious rustic barn to compliment every aspect of our “Enchanted Quince” event. The space is gorgeous with minimal decor, or a blank canvas for creativity. Perfect to begin and end the day in one place, from hair and makeup to end of reception, and with all the magical moments in between. We used every spot of the venue and worked with Maria to get the lights to change colors during the event as we progressed through different segments and performances of the night. She was great to work with before and during the event. We are very thankful for her receptivity to our questions and ideas as we put together a very busy event. Our guests loved the beauty of the venue and vendors who were new to Bel Air were stunned by such a gorgeous place in such a convenient location. My recommendation is: book early!

Annita was absolutely amazing to work with. From the start, she made the whole planning process feel so much easier with her calm, easygoing personality. We had so many questions and worries along the way, but she was always there to reassure us and guide us through everything. It truly felt like we were in good hands. On the day of the wedding, Desiree, our day-of coordinator, was a total lifesaver. She brought so many great ideas to the table and handled everything with such confidence and care. Honestly, without her, we would’ve been a mess! She helped everything run so smoothly and let us really enjoy the day without stress. Our wedding day turned out to be absolutely beautiful, and we’re so grateful we chose Swan Point. Having Annita and Desiree by our side made all the difference. We can’t thank them enough!

We had such a wonderful reception at this venue! The staff was so kind and informative throughout the whole process, from the virtual tour to the cleanup on the day. We had Jaime and Kali with us on the day, Caroline and Erin also helped with planning. Our space was the Production Barn and it suited our needs perfectly. The wines were amazing, we had a great time tasting them all during the walkthrough and they were very much enjoyed. Having the Barn’s patio expanded the space and gave our guests more options.

My son recently got married at Earlyhouse, and the entire experience was nothing short of perfect. The venue was gorgeous. Everywhere you looked, there was a stunning backdrop for wedding photos. We were especially grateful to have the day-of coordinated by Katie, who worked behind the scenes to coordinate with all of us (coming from Florida, Texas, Maryland, Tennessee, & New York) and our vendors, she even managed my sons wedding timeline. It was evident that she genuinely cared about making the day special for our family. Her dedication and professionalism shined upon us the whole time. Because of Katie's expertise and dedication, we were able to relax and truly enjoy the day without any stress or concerns. Knowing that everything was in capable hands allowed us to be fully present in the moment, celebrating our son and new daughter-in-laws special day.

As soon as we took a tour of the Atrium, we knew this was the perfect spot to get married. The gardens are beautiful, and the inside the building the glass walls, plants, and little river give an airy and natural feel. I didn't worry about rain because you feel like you're outside even when you're in. When guests got too hot on the dance floor, they could go out and socialize on the patio overlooking the gardens in the cool night air. Given the meal prices for comparable venues, this venue is GREAT VALUE!! The food was great and the guests were happy. There were a couple small things that might be helpful to share, though. Our point of contact changed several times in the span of our engagement and there was sometimes a delay in communication. Also, the venue was marketed as a capacity of 200 people but it is better suited to weddings of 160-180 guests. When you go over 180, you have to choose some guests to seat in a room that feels divided by the little stream which is awkward. Also, there is no space for getting ready so brides and bridesmaids have to get ready off-site. Overall, I was overjoyed with having my wedding day here and I think for the price we still had an incredible experience. I don't regret it at all!!

The Old Farm Winery at Hartland was an absolute dream to work with for our milestone event. From the very beginning, their communication was excellent - they responded to all of our inquiries immediately and were always available for timely consultations to ensure our day was perfect. The venue itself is modern, spacious, and has a wonderfully rustic charm, with a great location that our guests raved about.

We got married at Briar Patch in October 2024 and I cannot say enough about how wonderful the venue was and how kind and communicative the venue owners were. Any time we had questions they were so quick to answer. I loved that we could have any vendors we wanted, but they also provided a list of wonderful recommendations. The price was also wonderful for the area! Having the venue for the whole weekend was such a great experience for our whole bridal party who stayed onsite.

Having our wedding at Dover Hall was amazing from start to finish. From the moment my fiancé and I stepped foot on the grounds, we were welcomed with kindness and support. We worked with Rachel and Stephanie specifically, but I can confidently say that every member of the team made sure that our wedding was exactly what we were hoping for and made the planning process very easy by being open and honest with pricing, incredibly responsive when needed, and unwavering in their support. Our wedding day was flawless. The team executed every detail perfectly from the spaces for us to get ready in throughout the day, the ceremony and reception floor plans, incredible food and stocked bar, and even created a private dinner for my fiancé and I to enjoy while our stationed-style dinner for our guests took place. Our guests were blown away, too. We would not have changed a single thing about our day and cannot recommend Dover Hall more. So professional, organized, and just all around amazing!

We had a terrific experience working with Lewis Ginter to host our wedding. The event planning staff was great, from our initial inquiries, through the planning process, to the last few weeks leading up to our wedding getting all the details squared away. The Bloemendaal House was the perfect venue for us in that it allowed us to have an outdoor wedding near the city without having to pay to erect a tent ourselves. While we didn’t need it, the staff was ready to accommodate a rain plan and kept the setup flowing smoothly. The catering and bar service were excellent, and it was so convenient to work with a venue that has a great in-house caterer. They kindly fielded requests from us all the way up to our wedding week. We had many positive comments on the food from our guests, particularly the mini beef wellingtons and tomato soup! They were also happy to have us bring in a non-traditional dessert option (an ice cream wagon!). The staff also took care to bring us drinks and food as the bride and groom to make sure we were well taken care of.
