“From the moment we started working with Sarah and The Lovely Veil Events, we knew we had made the right choice in hiring a wedding planner. Sarah and her team were fast, thorough, and directional in their communication, which was exactly what we needed to keep our wedding planning on track. Their professionalism and attention to detail was unparalleled - they were always one step ahead, anticipating our needs and ensuring the timeline ran perfectly so we could simply enjoy our special day without any stress!! It was really the small things that mattered most and we trusted Sarah and her team completely whether it was holding our rings during photos, making sure the marriage certificate was done and in a bag to go home to making sure we had our favorite drink in hand at all times. We felt comfortable, cared for, and in good hands the entire time! You can tell they truly care for their couples and will absolutely ensure perfection. If you're on the fence about hiring a planner, the answer is a resounding yes, and The Lovely Veil Events is the best team for the job!!”

From the very beginning, Willoughby, B-Lee, and Hugh listened patiently to every idea, vision, and even my occasional rant, and somehow transformed it all into the wedding DJ experience of our dreams. Their kindness, support, attention to detail, and user-friendly wedding portal made the entire planning process feel seamless and personal. On our wedding day, B-Lee and Hugh created an unforgettable atmosphere. The energy was incredible, the music was perfect, and the dance floor stayed packed all night long. It was even better than we could have imagined. What meant the most was how genuinely invested they were in making our day special. All three brought not only exceptional professionalism and talent, but also warmth, enthusiasm, and heart. We are so grateful for everything they did and truly cannot imagine our wedding without them.

Deerfield's inspiring blend of exquisite decor, lavishly landscaped grounds, breathtaking ceiling-to-floor glass walls and award-winning cuisine make it a venue unlike any other. Romantic photo opportunities abound, with spectacular terrace, water fountain, natural landscapes and golf course views.

Venue considerations

  • Not wheelchair accessible

  • Venue feels large for events with small guest lists
“My husband and I held our wedding reception at Deerfield in April 2026. Our experience with this venue was excellent from beginning to end! The staff is highly professional and exceptional at anticipating your needs. The grounds and ballroom are absolutely gorgeous. The whole place is super clean. The golf course is alive but quiet. The value versus cost is amazing. We received tons of compliments from guests on the day about how delicious the food was and how beautiful the venue was. We’re still getting compliments months later from friends and family saying it was the best wedding they’ve ever attended. We couldn’t be happier with how our day unfolded. Our coordinator Lizette was there guiding us the whole way and was super nice and accommodating. We wanted to display my great aunt’s antique wedding dress and other memorabilia and it was welcomed by her and the staff. She touched base with us regularly over the five months of planning to make sure we were on track with each milestone and we felt completely organized and at ease heading into the big day. Our day-of coordinator Matt was also excellent. We were a little behind arriving to Deerfield from the church where we got married but he seamlessly got us back on track and the evening unfolded beautifully. We were greeted by him and the staff as soon as we arrived. They brought us our signature drinks and hors d’oeuvres from the cocktail hour while we collected ourselves in a private dressing room. Matt was guiding each part of the reception nearby but he was good at giving space and time. He would tell us when the cake cutting was and when we had a few moments before pictures would be taken etc. He also built in some private breaks for me and my husband so we could save our energy throughout the event. Basically we were able to be carefree all evening! The photos we took inside the venue turned out lovely. The hallways are very ornate and classy. We did not take pictures outside due to rain but the golf course is lush and green and there are water fountains and terraces just outside the ballroom. The ballroom is large but feels intimate with the warm light and table positioning. We had 125 guests and 18 round tables including our sweetheart table and it felt romantic and cozy. There’s plenty of space for the cake table, DJ, photo booth, bar, dessert table, and memorial tables with grandparents’ pictures. We selected the mid level food and drink package with multiple sit-down dinner options including vegetarian/vegan. The staff is very accommodating to food allergies and other preferences. They also accommodate children’s and vendor meals. We loved the late night snack of mini cheesesteaks. And our last dance in the empty ballroom followed by our sendoff through the front doors was a perfect way to end the night. We used light sticks for the sendoff as sparklers are not permitted on the grounds. In a word, our reception was perfect. Thank you Deerfield for the impeccable service!”

“It seemed like a worldwind tour and in the end my bride smiled as if she received the world. We met Christina at a random event through a mutual friend and she boasted about 'Majestic Elegance Resorts' as the location for our 'Destination Wedding'. I had never worked with a Wedding Coordinator/Travel Agent before and as the Groom I understood my role. My wish, that was non-negotiable was that my Bride was happy.......MISSION ACCOMPLISHED. My voice was heard, any time we faced a challenge I was able to go to Christina to address it. • The location was all that it was bragged to be • Our wedding, with the endless beach view was the best • The transportation to and from the airport was on point • The food was very good • The rooms....oh the rooms...no matter which one you chose, not sure you could go wrong • There were events everyday on the resort, with staff approaching you during the day to invite you personally • Did I mention it was all-inclusive....It was all-inclusive • The All-White Boat Party the next day, not even the rain could hold us down as God opened the skies as soon as we left the dock.........whooooo just tired thinking about it. I have a pic of my Bride and the Wedding Coordinator passed out from all the expended energy with each other Most importantly, in the end my Bride was smiling, crying and smiling again. It took us 2 days to recover just to say goodbye to our guests as we stayed a few more days...just awesome. My bride is still smiling, even now and if we could change something I can't think of anything that we would change. I smile just thinking about it. All of our guests thank us for inviting them to spend to travel to join us for our celebration. They had the time of their lives and those that could not make it regret it but enjoy the love through our pictures. Thank you Christina for making my Bride laugh, cry and smile again. This was one of the most important moments in my life and we are still watching videos and finding pics.”

Collette Blooms is named after our beautiful standard poodle who is at my feet at just about every step of the process. We feel privileged to be included in your special event!

“We had an amazing experience! Her communication was great, she checked in several times to make sure we were still happy with what we ordered.

“My husband and I had our 10 year vow renewal and hired steve and lauren. They were prompt and early. They spoke with us and devoted their time into taking pictures that meant the most to us. We are more in the moment memory pictures and they completely nailed it. Not only did they capture true memories they were also very patient with our two young kids who can be quite difficult at times and were able to get them to react for photos. Lauren and Steve were more than just photographers for us they were so easy to work with and talk too. I could have not hoped for a better outcome.

“From the moment we booked our wedding at The Farmhouse, their communication was organized, detailed but concise, and incredibly considerate. On the day of our wedding, everything was set up exactly as we had imagined - it was absolutely perfect for the warm, rustic vibe we were going for and simply stunning. The food was out of this world delicious, truly Michelin star worthy. All of our guests raved about how gorgeous and welcoming the venue was. The Farmhouse team truly went above and beyond to make our special day perfect, and we are so grateful for their incredible service and hospitality.”

“Julian at Limelight and DJ Rashaun were absolutely perfect for us. We knew the vibe we wanted — and, frankly, it was a little off the beaten path since we wanted a bit of a 1930s feeling. We thought we were doomed, though, because we're terrible at selecting exact songs and had no sense of how the music fit into the overall schedule of the night. We hadn't thought past our ceremony! Julian kept things positive, steered us when we had no idea what to do, but gave us space to put our stamp on our evening when he could sense we had ideas burbling. He was helpful, positive and always prompt without ever being pushy, and so many of our favorite moments came out of the things he got us to think about. Rashaun was awesome too. He took our weird list of preferred songs and turned it into an amazing night of love, dining, and dancing. It felt like he'd known for years, always hitting the right classic hit, the right remix, the right memory moments. He was such a kind and lovely man too. We'd hire them again in a heartbeat!”
