There aren’t enough good words to describe how wonderful our experience was at Clerestory. The ladies at Clerestory went above and beyond to make our day memorable and incredible. I loved that we were able to make a separate ceremony location and separate reception location. The venue offered beautiful light, gorgeous features and was so welcoming. This space is a blank canvas, and we turned it into everything we could ever dream. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would!!!

The Gatewood is the most stunning venue I've ever been to! We had our wedding ceremony and reception there, and it was absolutely perfect! The building is so unique and gorgeous! Matt was so nice when we toured and kept in contact throughout the upcoming months to our wedding. Claudia is just amazing! She helped us plan the day and guided us during our rehearsal. She was there on our big day and kept everything running smoothly, plus our son just loved her! She really went above and beyond to make our day special and we are forever thankful. Plus our bartender was awesome too! If you are looking for a beautiful venue in a cute small town, book the Gatewood

I don’t even know where to begin. Before the wedding day, Grace, Klara, and Tina went above and beyond on every single detail to make this day truly special. They were there every step of the way and responded so quickly. I know they were working with so many other weddings, but made me feel special like I was the only wedding they were focusing on. I knew the wedding day was going to be beautiful through the planning process but I couldn’t imagine it being as beautiful as it was. From the morning of getting ready, to riding away at night I was in awe the entire time. I felt like the luckiest girl/bride in the world getting married there and having the support from all the staff and support.
