“I can’t say enough good things about the Solarium. To start, this venue is beautiful! The greenery was a vision and our ceremony/reception didn’t require a lot of decor or floral because of it. We received so many compliments from our guests. All the staff were so accommodating. Jess was our go to leading up to the wedding. We did a virtual tour with her as we live out of state and from the moment we met with her, we were hooked on the venue. Even with all of our random, tedious questions, she was so helpful along the way. We eventually had an in person tour and worked with Steph on customizing beers and wines that were a must for the wedding. We had 2 beer boys for the ceremony and they supplied the cans for this. She also set us girls up with seltzers and mimosas in the bridal suite on the day of. They didn’t miss a beat! The drinks were delicious and everyone loved them. I was able to meet Chris, one of the owners on wedding eve. There were some last minute things that needed to be nailed down and he helped communicate this to the Solarium team that night. The space was perfect for guests to roam by going outside, dancing or relaxing on the couches. They had so many nice add on features with no hidden fees. The cost was reasonable and well worth it. My husband loved having the option to use the golf sim since their is not a groom suite. The bridal suite was breathtaking and comfy; we had the perfect photo ops there. I wish we could re-live our wedding day all over again! We can’t thank the Solarium staff enough for making our wedding the Best. Day. Ever. We highly recommend this venue to any bride and groom!”

“Our wedding at Etre farms was absolutely perfect. The Etre team makes wedding plan a dream. I kept thinking to myself, "why am I not stressed yet..shouldn't I be stressed?" month over month ahead of our wedding day - but it's because they think of quite literally everything. Working with their team requires very little from the bridegroom to make your dreams and vision come true. This was especially important to use as we live in a different state and are on the go for work nearly every week. Of course you still need to offer input and share your general vision but they help walk you through details you may be unfamiliar with - we had a handful of meetings over the course of the year and everything we discussed was made a reality. When the wedding finally came, we couldn't have asked for a better day. From the hospitality throughout the getting ready period with our personal concierge and food/drinks provided, to the beautiful space they created with in-house florals (Nicole is amazing!), the best wedding food I've ever had (by far), the beautiful details and signage (shout out Elliana @ Brush Letter Boards) and Etre's amazing in-house DJ - our wedding guests were and still are raving. This review would go on and on if I tried to highlight all the little details this team thought of. We are genuinely sad the planning process is over because we loved meeting and talking with this team regularly - they are all very kind people - so easy to work with and operate like a well-oiled machine. Highly recommend this group and this venue!”

Larger celebrations with 300 guests typically cost about $68,169. The average venue itself costs $6,420 which is about 16% of your total budget for a 150-person wedding.
