Emerald Ridge made every part of our weekend so perfect and special. This location and views are absolutely STUNNING. The owners truly cared so much and made our day magical. Their organization and communication are both top notch. We recommend using the coordinator at the venue, Malorie, as she was the true MVP and knows every detail at this venue back to front. We booked the no rush weekend and used the venue for our rehearsal as well. Our dog stayed with us all weekend as well which made us feel right at home. All in all we couldn’t be happier and enjoyed every minute here.

Angel's View Wedding Chapel provided a wonderful space for our small, intimate wedding. The staff was responsive and answered all of our questions throughout the planning process. The chapel itself has a beautiful and serene atmosphere that was perfect for our ceremony. The only downside was that there didn't seem to be much time between weddings, so we felt a bit rushed getting our decorations set up. Overall, we were very happy with the value and quality of Angel's View and would recommend it for couples looking for a quaint, charming wedding venue.
