“Our wedding at Willowdale Estate was truly everything we could have dreamed of and more! From the moment we first saw the property, we knew we had found the perfect venue. The estate is absolutely beautiful, the atmosphere is warm and elegant, and every detail made our wedding day feel incredibly special. A huge part of what made our experience so wonderful was our event coordinator, Alli. She was absolutely amazing from start to finish! Alli was incredibly organized, attentive, kind, and responsive throughout the entire planning process. She made us feel completely taken care of and gave us so much confidence leading up to the big day. On our wedding day, she handled every detail seamlessly, allowing us to relax, enjoy ourselves, and truly be present in the moment. We can’t thank her enough! The entire Willowdale Estate team went above and beyond to make our wedding unforgettable. The service, food, and attention to detail were all exceptional.

“We had our wedding at The Villa at Ridder on 8/23/25, and everything was absolutely perfect! From the moment we first toured the venue, we knew it was the right place for us, it’s beautiful, elegant, and not insanely expensive. The staff made the entire process so easy and stress-free. They were professional, attentive, and incredibly organized, which made our day run seamlessly. We worked with Lexie, Brianna, and Kristen. Every detail was handled smoothly, and we didn’t have to worry about a thing. The food was delicious, and our guests are still raving about how much they enjoyed it. You have to do the European deserts because those were delicious. The Villa truly exceeded our expectations and gave us the wedding day we had always hoped for. They even worked with us to accommodate some Ukrainian traditions and if you have foreign family that are worried, trust me you’re in good hands. We can’t recommend The Saphire Event Group enough it’s the perfect place to celebrate such a special occasion! I’d also recommend doing the inclusive package, the dj and florist were awesome.”

“We had our New Year’s Eve wedding in the Liberty House ballroom, and it was truly everything we dreamed of and more. From start to finish, the experience was great. Our event stylist, Sarah, was amazing and played such a huge role in bringing our vision to life. I had a lot of ideas (some a bit outside the box!), and Liberty House worked with us to thoughtfully incorporate them into our wedding and our budget, including espresso martini shots on the dance floor, which was such a fun and memorable moment for our guests. The food was outstanding, especially cocktail hour. Guests are still talking about it. The pasta station was a crowd favorite, and we added the sushi station, which was an absolute hit as well. Everything was delicious and beautifully presented. The views alone are unbeatable. We had the most stunning Manhattan skyline backdrop at a much better price than venues actually in Manhattan or nearby. Another huge plus was being able to decorate the ceiling of the ballroom, which completely elevated the space. We used Liberty House’s preferred florist, JR Floral Designs, and absolutely loved working with them. Communication throughout the planning process was great. One thing to note is that Liberty House is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays, so depending on when you email, there may be a short wait for a response but once they’re back, they are responsive and helpful. The week of the wedding, we were able to drop off all of our décor and personal details, which made the wedding day itself so smooth and stress-free. While there isn’t a traditional getting-ready suite, there is a small room to store belongings, enjoy a private cocktail hour, and a private restroom. I personally got ready at a suite at the Hyatt House and took an Uber over, which worked out perfectly. Overall, Liberty House exceeded our expectations in every way. Between the views, the food, the flexibility, and the incredible team, we couldn’t imagine a better place to have celebrated our wedding — especially on NYE. Highly recommend!”

“We held our wedding reception at Saratoga Springs in the Cathedral Grove region of the venue on a Saturday in October. After visiting them for a walkthrough, we booked this venue about a year and a few months in advance. This was the first venue we visited and we fell in love! We felt a great family-like vibe from the staff, starting with Jennifer who coordinated our initial booking and tour. Throughout our time preparing for this event, Olivia and Sam were extraordinary in their communication, response time, and knowledge of these events. They did a wonderful job in helping us understand what we needed vs. what we wanted and good decisions to make. They never tried to upsell us on more expensive options, always letting us know the best value for what we wanted. Throughout this process, we knew we had made the right choice in terms of staff. Scenically, Saratoga Springs is stunning! An outdoor venue with several different species of large trees like oaks and redwoods, many small creeks that run through and around the venue, and several amenities included such as lights that wrap around the trees, a firepit, and artificial turf that you can actually wear high heels on! We were in love with the scenery immediately because our reception was LOTR/Legend of Zelda themed and this was perfect for us. Throughout the actual event, the Saratoga Springs staff was excellent. They assisted us and our own day of wedding coordinators in running the event and making sure we had everything that they could provide. Our reception was during a brutal heat wave in the Bay Area, but Cathedral Grove had so many large trees that the shade they provided meant the floor never got hot and it felt more like 75 degrees which was SO essential for the comfort of ourselves and our guests. Everything was great, and we give the venue and their staff a 10/10. There was one glaring issue we want to address. The DJ we booked, Paul Dominguez, was a very nice man. He seemed to be on top of it, being in constant communication with us leading up to the event. We felt that he was going to do a great job. Yet, when it came time for the event, he made SEVERAL mistakes in what we asked him to do that we felt the need to address this situation and performance. He is part of the approved vendor list for DJs but we honestly feel Saratoga Springs needs to either reevaluate him or discuss this with him because literally everything else about the night was perfect for us, except him. Again, he is a nice guy and even provided cold sparklers for us for free which we really appreciated, but the lack of attention to detail in several aspects of this night was something we felt we needed to address here. Overall, Saratoga Springs is an excellent venue choice for a big event like a wedding/reception and we are happy to recommend anyone looking for a venue. We had an amazing experience for our reception and we are very satisfied with the staff and scenery of this venue.”

“We are so happy that we found and chose Paradigm Gardens for our wedding! We really can’t imagine having done it anywhere else, because this felt like the perfect venue for us. We honestly loved the entire process with Karen and the gardens. We kept wondering why planning a wedding has a reputation for being stressful, because we really enjoyed it. The day went perfectly, and so so many of our guest said it was honestly the best wedding they had been to. I think it is because it was laid back, yet beautiful, felt true to us as a couple, touching, and allowed space and time for genuine connection with us and our guests. Also the food was UNBELIEVABLE. We loved the concept of the outdoor kitchen, it tasted great,and was not your typical wedding food. We also have said multiple times since the wedding that we just miss Karen. 100% recommend if you want a unique and beautiful space and experience for your wedding in New Orleans.”

“I honestly can't say enough amazing things about The Antrim 1844 Hotel! We had the most incredible wedding experience here, and I'm so grateful we found this gem. We actually heard about Antrim from a coworker whose family had their wedding there last spring. It wasn't even on our radar before that, but now I can't imagine our wedding taking place anywhere else! During our planning process, we got to see so many different weddings they were hosting, and I was blown away by their unique ability to make everything from small intimate gatherings to expansive celebrations not just work, but work beautifully! They really know how to adapt to each couple's vision. Working with Jill was such a joy! She made the entire planning process feel effortless and actually fun. She was so flexible with all our changes and took the time to walk us through backup plans for weather, which gave us such peace of mind knowing we were covered no matter what. We got lucky with lovely weather and got married in their rose garden, and oh my goodness - it was so breathtakingly gorgeous that we barely needed to add any decorations! The natural beauty spoke for itself and created the most romantic, dreamy backdrop for our vows. Having so many family members and friends traveling to join us, the wedding weekend stay option was a game-changer! The complimentary breakfast for overnight guests was such a thoughtful touch - it meant everyone could wake up together and start each day without any stress about finding food. It really made the whole wedding weekend feel like one big family celebration. The bridal suite in the main mansion was absolutely perfect for getting ready! There was space for our entire wedding party plus my mom and friends to get ready together, and it provided the most beautiful backdrop for photos. We got so many stunning getting-ready shots in that gorgeous space! The food was absolutely delicious - both during our tasting and on the big day! Our guests are still raving about it. The team worked so seamlessly with all our other vendors too, making sure everyone felt welcomed and taken care of. We were thrilled about the veterans discount, which let us add some extra special touches like a dessert bar, upgraded appetizers, and shade canopies for the ceremony. They made it so easy to customize everything within our budget. Every single guest has told us what an amazing time they had, and we're already excited to come back for anniversaries! We've heard their holiday decorations are absolutely spectacular, so we're definitely planning a winter visit. If you're looking for a venue that combines stunning natural beauty, incredible service, amazing food, and a team that genuinely cares about making your day perfect, The Antrim 1844 Hotel is IT. We couldn't have asked for a more magical place to start our life together!”

Beyond our fantastic vendor team and amazing wedding planner, Erika Weeks, we had a great experience working with Hillside and with the owners Donavan & Ashlee, and the events coordinator Lauren. Hillside is a truly unique venue. When we first toured in March 2025 we were blown away by the setting and views. From March 2025 to today, they continue to incorporate upgrades into the venue, including new artwork and a brand new creek/pond that adds to the ethereal ambiance. Donavan and Ashlee were super accommodating and happy to at least consider different questions and requests we had. We live out of state but cannot wait to come back and visit for another Wednesday Concert Series and a cup of coffee!”

“Loved having my ceremony here at the little house. I wanted to have my reception there as well, however, the City of Johns Creek requires an alcohol permit and insurance which would have cost us more than the venue cost. This is not in any way Autry Mills fault. It is not their requirement but it was disappointing to us having to make last minute venue changes for our reception.”

The sun started breaking through, birds were chirping. They answered every single question we threw at them.

Everyone is so communicative, accommodating, and professional! They do multiple check-ins and keep the space clean!

“TL;DR: The Bentwood Inn is a truly special place to get married—a 1000/10 experience, and one we’ll treasure forever. The longer version: We knew we wanted an intimate, destination-style wedding, and after visiting the Bentwood Inn for the first time this past summer, it just felt right. Nestled beneath the Tetons, the property offers a quiet, peaceful escape while still being close to everything that makes Jackson Hole so incredible. We planned our wedding in under three months while living in another state, which sounds a little wild in hindsight. But thanks to the Bentwood team, the entire process felt surprisingly calm and manageable. Looking back, we truly couldn’t be happier with how the day—and the full experience—went. We reserved the entire inn for three nights for a small wedding with less than 30 guests, with everyone staying on-site. Having everyone together in one place was one of the most meaningful parts of our weekend. Instead of everything feeling rushed, we were able to spend quality time with our closest family and friends—sharing meals, catching up, and exploring the beauty of Jackson Hole together. For a December wedding, we were incredibly lucky with the weather: sunny skies and temperatures in the 40s. We spent nights around the fire pit and stargazing, as our weekend coincided with the Geminids meteor shower. We stayed in the Grand Suite, which we can’t recommend enough for couples. It’s spacious, cozy, and thoughtfully designed, with a large living area and full kitchen that made getting ready on the wedding day easy. It was the perfect home base for such an important weekend. I (the bride) got ready in the Grand Suite, while my fiancé (now husband) stayed in the Chalet on our wedding day. The Chalet is just off the back lawn and was the perfect way to keep us separate while still feeling close, adding an extra layer of excitement and intention to the day. On the wedding day itself, the Bentwood crew handled everything with such care and ease that we were able to be fully present and enjoy every moment. One thing we really appreciated was how much inventory and décor the venue already has on hand—tables, chairs, place settings, and more—which removed so much extra coordination and stress. At the same time, there’s plenty of flexibility to add your own personal touches. We used mostly Bentwood’s décor, with a few meaningful additions of our own, and everything came together beautifully. We held our ceremony on the back deck, followed by appetizers and dinner in the great room, all prepared and served in-house. The food was outstanding and the chef and staff exceeded our expectations. Since the weather stayed mild, we did our first dances out on the deck, followed by a little line dancing under the stars. We opted to create our own playlists and use the Bentwood’s sound system instead of hiring a DJ, which gave the evening a personal, relaxed feel that we loved. More than anything, what sets the Bentwood Inn apart is the people. The team is exceptional—kind, attentive, and genuinely invested in making the experience meaningful. They treated us and our guests like family, and that level of care was felt throughout the entire weekend. We already know we’ll be coming back to this magical place for years to come! The Bentwood Inn isn’t just where we got married—it’s a place that will always hold a very special piece of our hearts.”

About wedding venues

How much do wedding & reception venues cost?

The cost of wedding venues varies, with factors influencing cost including size, location, guest count, and, most importantly, whether things like catering and rentals are included. The more a reception venue near you includes, the higher the cost. When considering venues, try to compare prices apples-to-apples. If one venue includes catering and rentals in their pricing and the other doesn’t, you need to figure out how much additional cost those outside vendors would be to make a true comparison. Before booking, be sure you’re aware of additional costs outlined in your contract, like parking fees and weather-related considerations (adding a tent, etc.).

What questions should we ask wedding venues?

When talking with a potential venue, always ask about 1) their availability and 2) their capacity. Some popular venues book up peak season Saturdays nearly 2 years in advance—if your first choice date isn’t available, consider your flexibility on day of the week and year. While maximum capacity is non-negotiable, venues might have guidance on what guest count will be most comfortable. Also, you’ll want to understand what is and is not included in the venue’s fees. Some include catering, tables and chairs, and linens, while others offer just the raw space. These venues are often less expensive because you are only paying for the space itself, and you’ll have to bring in outside vendors
