From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the natural beauty of the grounds.

Awarded Best of Zola
I held my son and his now wife’s reception here in Sept 2024. You will not find a better person to work with than Sandra. She has the best idea’s and will help make your event special and perfect. The Bonaparte castle is a must see to appreciate its beauty. Her way of putting ideas together with your own brings her event space to life. Not only are the renovating a castle but they have a great outdoor space including a fire pit. There is a small tavern that can be used for that very purpose. I am holding my own wedding and reception here next Oct and couldn’t be more excited to work with her again. Please enjoy my photos.

Velvet Venues was an absolute delight to work with for our wedding. From our very first interaction, the team was extremely kind, great listeners, and proactive in ensuring our day went off without a hitch. The attention to detail and luxurious touches they provided truly elevated our wedding experience. They were onsite the entire time, never shying away from the "dirty work" to make sure everything ran smoothly. Our wedding at Velvet Venues was brief but incredibly memorable, and we can't wait to return for our traditional wedding ceremony in the future.
