My husband and I had our wedding ceremony and reception at Oakwood Lane Weddings on November 9th and it was the PERFECT day! The property is stunning, and the owners, Amanda and Jesh, are so welcoming, kind, helpful, and overall just the most incredible people. Amanda was always checking in with us from the time we first visited the venue until we were cleaning up the morning after the ceremony and helped us every step of the way. She kept us up to date on any offerings they had available and was quick to offer additional services if she felt it would make the day better. We cannot recommend this venue enough and are so excited for other couples to experience the kindness of Amanda and Jesh and the beauty of the property. We can't thank them enough for all they did to make our day so special.

Catering off-site events can be difficult, but Jeanne Fleming made it a breeze. We, as caterers, were able to communicate easily with her from when the wedding planning began through the day and evening of the event. We were able to work together in a way that gave the bride and groom nothing to worry about on their special day. I have been recommending The Christy House after discovering how great they are to work with!

From the moment we inquired about Arlington Acres, Sarah and her team were extremely tentative, kind, and thoughtful in their communication. The venue itself is spacious, clean, and easy to decorate, providing excellent value for our wedding. When the weather unexpectedly turned for the worse, I couldn't thank Sarah enough for giving us time to see if it would change, and then being so kind and supportive in quickly shifting everything to the stunning Old Barn at the last minute. The smooth transition and beautiful, versatile spaces with a rustic-modern feel made our day even more perfect than we could have imagined. Our guests raved about the seamless flow from ceremony to reception. We are so grateful to Sarah and the entire Arlington Acres team for their calm, supportive presence that made our special day absolutely wonderful.
