Union Brick By Wedgewood Weddings was the perfect venue for our wedding day. From the beginning, their communication was quick, detailed, open and honest, which put us at ease throughout the planning process. The venue itself was absolutely beautiful, with a great value for the large and versatile space. Amanda, our event pre-wedding coordinator, went above and beyond to ensure every detail was taken care of - she answered every question, email and call, and was always there for my husband, myself and my mom. On the day of the wedding, Kayla, our day-of coordinator, was detailed, thorough and wonderful, making sure everything ran smoothly. Our banquet staff and bartenders were also attentive and made sure we and our guests were taken care of all night long. We are so grateful to the Union Brick team for making our special day truly perfect.

Harmony Ridge Lodge was the perfect choice for our wedding venue. From the moment we first reached out, the team was quick to respond and incredibly friendly. Faith, our day-of coordinator, was a lifesaver. She managed our vendors, pushed us to get certain vendors when needed, and kept us calm and stress-free on our big day. The venue itself is gorgeous, nestled in a beautiful forest setting. The rooms were amazing, with plush bedding and extra pillows and blankets if needed. And the food was outstanding. The chef prepared a delicious breakfast each morning, like a sweet potato sausage hash, eggs, and pancakes, and made sure everyone got a chance to eat before it ended. Most of all, it had all of the forest vibes I wanted. While other wedding venues felt more artificial with its nature, this venue had its gorgeous trees, its rustic rooms, and it was located in a quiet, lovely town. Though it was far away for our guests to travel, it was a very gorgeous scenic drive as well. We couldn't have asked for a better experience at Harmony Ridge Lodge!
