Saxon Manor was the perfect venue for our wedding. Their communication throughout the planning process was very easy; they were always quick to respond to emails and phone calls with a friendly and helpful attitude. The venue itself is so pretty, with beautiful gardens and architecture that made a gorgeous backdrop for our photos. It was definitely worth the money to host our reception there. The staff at Saxon Manor went above and beyond for us on our special day - they were attentive to every detail, from the setup and decor to making sure my husband and I were well taken care of.

Awarded Best of Zola
We recently celebrated our wedding at Bella Cosa on September 15, 2024, and it was truly a dream come true! The vintage Italian estate aesthetic is simply stunning, and the breathtaking views made for a magical backdrop for our special day. After viewing only one other venue, we knew right away that Bella Cosa was the one. Leading up to our wedding, the planning process was seamless, and the staff was incredibly responsive to all our questions. They made everything so easy and stress-free. Our guests can't stop raving about how beautiful the venue was, and we couldn't agree more! The estate also offered lovely accommodations for us and some of our guests. The new honeymoon suite was absolutely perfect for my husband and I —such a romantic retreat! All the vendors worked together flawlessly, creating the wedding of our dreams. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Thank you, Bella Cosa, for making our day unforgettable! We highly recommend this venue to anyone looking to host their wedding in a truly magical setting.

It has so much natural lighting (a photographers dream) and large enough for you and your bridal party to get ready on your wedding morning!
