“We had a beautiful wedding and reception at Franchesco's. The food was great and it truly was a wonderful evening. Several people stated that we had a beautiful wedding but there were some hiccups. After the ceremony, there were our signature drinks out for guests but they were not labeled and several guests thought it was iced tea and orange juice but it was an old fashioned and a malibu and pineapple. I actually thought so myself until someone said something to me. A big deal for those sober guests in the crowd who thought it was tea and OJ. Luckily no kids got any. When I arrived an hour and a half before the ceremony, the guest place cards and favors were not displayed as I was told they would be. So, myself, both moms and bridal party members had to take care of this. Not a huge deal but I gladly would have stayed later the previous night to ensure this was done. I was told however that it would have been taken care of. Somehow at least 2 tables did not get cake, while other tables were offered seconds. Again it was a beautiful day and there is always something that goes wrong at a wedding. But these things seemed pretty big and made the day a little more chaotic then it needed to be.”

“We had our wedding reception at the Boone County Museum of History on July 6 and it was absolutely one of the best decisions we made in the entire wedding planning process! I grew up going to the museum and we had guests coming up to us all night telling us it was their first time there and how excited they were to see the museum for the first time and how they wanted to come back and spend more time there, and people saying they wanted to spend all night looking through the exhibits. The gallery space was perfect for our 125 guests and there was plenty of space to set up our buffet table, dessert table, and the bar on top of that. There was even enough room for a dance space near the entryway! The museum staff were absolutely the best throughout planning, answering all of our questions right away and helping us to figure out the layout when the time came. We were able to have plenty of personalized touches throughout our decor and our setup, and the staff even allowed us to set up a personalized scavenger hunt throughout the exhibits to find items we'd chosen based on our relationship. The Boone County Museum of History is 100% the best value for a wedding venue you could find in the area and is an absolutely gorgeous and special venue for any of your events, and I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a wedding venue in the Belvidere-Rockford area!”

From the moment we first reached out, their communication was efficient, kind, and they were always on top of things, quickly solving any problems that came up. The venue itself has such a charming, "Bridgerton-esque" vibe, it's cute, quaint, and truly feels like a magical sanctuary. When our music didn't work properly, they fixed it so quickly and made it as close to our choices as possible. Their coordinator, Amanda, was also fantastic and ensured everything went smoothly on the day of the wedding. It was everything we had hoped for and more, I had not even seen the venue until the day before, and it exceeded our expectations with its beautiful, reasonable pricing.

“Acquaviva Winery was the perfect place for our ceremony and reception. Mia went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. We had a great experiences from our first time touring the venue, to our tasting, rehearsal, and finally wedding day. The grounds are gorgeous, and the event space is breathtaking. We were able to start our wedding day in the guest house for getting ready. It is the perfect space for hair and makeup and has a private groom's suite in the basement to keep the bride and groom separate. The ceremony space was set up beautifully with the chairs and it was easy for guests to be shuttled and ushered to the vineyard. There were unlimited spots for beautiful photos. Cocktail hour was a success with the huge patio space and extra patio bar. The tables were set perfectly for dinner and everyone gave amazing reviews on the food. The wait staff was very attentive and the timing of all the courses being served kept the dinner flowing. The firework show was a perfect add-on to the day. The show was spectacular and our guests are still talking about it! The entire staff at Acquaviva made us feel welcome and provided an easy planning experience for us. Everything went perfectly!”

“Prairie Landing Golf Club was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding day. From the very first time we spoke with Michelle, she was incredibly friendly, kind, and quick to respond to all of our planning needs. The venue is absolutely beautiful with stunning views that created the perfect backdrop for our day. Our ceremony was on the practice hole tee box over the bridge which made for a grand entrance and perfect photos. We had our cocktail hour in the tent in the parking lot - guests loved it. Our reception was in the ballroom which was absolutely perfect. Michelle and the entire team made sure that everything went exactly according to plan. And... THE FOOD!!!! Our guests were raving about it being the best wedding food they'd ever had. If you're looking for a truly amazing wedding venue with a team that will go above and beyond, I highly recommend Prairie Landing Golf Club!”

“Had the 5 hour lunch wedding package on 5/20/23. It was fabulous. Lisa was the wedding coordinator and offered the Emerald Room with high ceilings. Very light and airy. She set up everything beautifully. Lots of food. Cake was beautiful and delicious. Everything was perfect. The only thing that could have changed was cleanup started 15 minutes before event ended which caused some guests to leave slightly early. But overall a 10 out of 10. You will not be disappointed by selecting Villa Olivia. Also beautiful outdoor pictures at this facility.”

“Do you want to have a completely stress-free wedding day and planning experience? Then book your wedding here. Throughout the year I had to plan my wedding at BWH, I had countless people ask me if I was stressed, or comment that I seemed pretty relaxed for planning a wedding. That’s because Sharon S. and BWH’s recommended vendors make having a wedding here the most seamless and worry free experience. Everyone is so easy and fun to work with and made everything a breeze. Our family and wedding party noted how professional and coordinated everybody was- they run a tight ship! I can’t recommend this venue enough, and I am so glad we had our wedding here. Everything went perfectly- thank you so much Sharon!”

“We had our wedding at Ludlow Mansion in Monroe WI and it was fantastic. Penny and Greg are great and easy to work with throughout the entire process. Our guests continued to comment throughout the night how the venue was beautiful. Our wedding was in April and they were so accommodating to moving the ceremony to be inside instead of outside the morning of the wedding. I highly recommend going with the three day package as it made everything less stressful. I cannot say enough how happy we were to have our wedding at Ludlow and we highly recommend it to anyone looking for that all in one place for their weddings!”
