Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment we booked our wedding at Willowdale Estate, the team there was incredibly professional, helpful, and calming throughout the entire process. Their communication was always prompt and clear, and they made us feel taken care of at every step. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful, with a dreamy, Great Gatsby-esque atmosphere that was the perfect backdrop for our special day. The food was truly amazing - our guests are still raving about it! But perhaps the best part was working with their incredible wedding coordinator, Julia, who went above and beyond to ensure our wedding day was perfect in every way. We are so grateful to the entire Willowdale team for making our wedding day an absolute dream.
