This is a wedding venue like no other! It is so unique, magical, and absolutely one-of-a-kind! Both the indoor barn and the outdoor parts of the venue are gorgeous. My husband and I chose to have our wedding completely outside. We were able to have three different areas outdoors for the reception, cocktail hour, and ceremony. The guests loved being able to go from place to place and it just flowed together so perfectly. The lighting, chandeliers and open skies made our night time wedding absolutely stunning for guests and photos! Erik has put so much work into the beautiful landscape, lighting, and outdoor layout that the only decor I needed were my centerpieces for my tables And a few things to make my wedding my own like signs, etc. Everything else was already there and absolutely beautiful. Erik went above and beyond for me by hanging disco balls, and he even surprised me and had his neighbors chickens For the day for my wedding because I love my chickens and am known for being a crazy chicken lady. That alone gives this place 1 million stars! Erik is attentive to the individual needs of the bride/groom as well as the guests. He puts so much detail, heart, and soul into everything he does. From the Airbnb, treehouse, to the actual venue itself. We loved having it all in one place as well. as the option to purchase the alcohol package and delicious food from his chef! If you want a wedding that stands out above the rest, choose Wanderlust Okto! If you want your wedding to stand out above the rest… Look no other! My wedding was more than we could’ve ever dreamed and we couldn’t have done it without Erik and his venue

Sweetwater Branch Inn (SWB) went above and BEYOND to make my wedding weekend everything I had dreamed of—and more. If I could give SWB a million out of five stars, I absolutely would! My wedding was on March 16, 2025, and originally planned as an outdoor event. The team at SWB was incredibly flexible, allowing me to get creative with the venue and hold the ceremony and dinner in a different location than they usually do which was impressive in itself! Just days before the wedding, a storm was predicted to hit. At the last minute, we ordered a tent for the gardens (something that had never been done before), completely reworked the layout we had spent over a year planning, and somehow, everything turned out perfectly! Adrienne, the event coordinator, and Angel, the food and beverage coordinator, were nothing short of incredible. Adrienne went above and beyond, dedicating extra time and effort to ensure my vision came to life, even with the last-minute changes. Every single member of the staff was truly wonderful. My close family stayed at the Inn and didn’t want to leave! Guests traveled from Canada, New York City, and even Sydney, Australia—and every single one of them raved about their stay. From the friendly and helpful staff to the elegant decor and the delicious food (both at breakfast and the wedding!), they were beyond impressed. I cannot say enough great things about Sweetwater Branch Inn and the amazing event venue they provide. They do everything with heart, which is so rare these days—and that, above all, meant the world to me and my guests.

They have so many different locations within the venue to have the ceremony, and nice that they have one option inside just in case of rain. Also have a golf cart to help shuttle people from parking or the bridal party from the dressing domes. I had to call about a few questions and someone picked up immediately. Very professional and worked with us when we had a family emergency and had to postpone the wedding date. Highly recommended!!

There are not enough words to describe how thankful I am for everyone at Club Continental. The Club Continental was an incredible venue for our wedding day. From the moment we first inquired, Carla made us feel so welcomed. And no matter how many ridiculous questions I had, their communication was fast and thorough, addressing all of our questions and providing helpful suggestions. On the day of, the staff went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly - and me, being a dummy, forgot all about a Notary. but The Club went out of their way to find us a last-minute notary when we needed one, and assisted with the setup. The evening manager, overseeing the wedding was so attentive, helpful and accommodating the entire time. I can not express how thankful we were to have him there. Everything ran smoothly because of him. The venue itself is simply magic. So incredibly beautiful, with such a warm and welcoming atmosphere. It was like stepping into a different world when you got on those grounds. And the stunning natural settings were just breathtaking. We were blown away by the amazing and friendly staff, not only the day of the wedding, but the entire week we stayed there. The breakfast staff was incredible, I wanted to become part of her family!! And let’s not forget the FOOD!! Salivating just thinking about it. They offered a couple food tasting events which allowed you to taste some of their different options before you decide on a menu. This was extremely helpful because what I thought I’d choose vs what I actually chose were complete opposites, and that’s because I was able to get those samples in. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect location to celebrate our special day and I can’t wait to go back and spend a few days there.
