Best Venue Ever!

I cannot recommend this venue more! Not only is it beautiful on the inside but Bryce and Courtney who help run the show put in so much time, effort, and energy into making it the best day you could imagine! After our initial meeting with Bryce it was a no-brainer to go with Novella’s. They were the only venue that said yes to all of our requests and let us make the wedding more catered to us as a couple (DIY stirrers, signage, centerpieces, etc.). They only do 1 wedding a day so you are their main focus for the duration of your day. He will answer your emails, texts, and set up meetings with you if you ask! He also added some ideas we wouldn’t have thought of and walked us through the timeline and process with our goals in mind. Our family/friend’s raved about the food during cocktail hour and dinner. Good portions and great quality! As the bride, I felt they ran a tight ship with no hiccups in sight and were easy to find if I had any questions. My guests said it was a true hidden gem that they didn’t know about but loved! They also have a deal with the local Pastry Garden to give you a custom cake included in the venue cost! The venue is within walking feet of a local hotel who are fabulous to work with and Bryce also let us use the outdoor patio for an amazing after party! Truly just good people to work with and SO easy to trust!

I do not have enough words to express how incredible our wedding experience was at Novella’s! From our first meeting, to our final exit the night of our wedding, we experienced the highest level of hospitality and service. Our guests raved about the food, the atmosphere and the staff! Everyone was super friendly, attentive and accommodating. Working with Bryce was like working with a life long friend. He was quick to respond to emails, kept us on track with our planning and brought so much ease to the process. We had full confidence in his team and were able to enjoy our day start to finish. Courtney was an absolute gem! Her and her team truly brought our vision to life on the overnight. She was so attentive throughout our day and I was so lucky to have her to lean on! We also hired their DJ recommendation All Occasions Music - Tom and Mark did not disappoint! Our dance floor was packed start to finish. I could go on and on. The rave reviews do not lie. This is the place you are looking for!

Novella's was beyond excellent, the food, the staff, the planning. Everything was more than I could have hoped for. They made my wedding a day I will cherish always. Budget Friendly and their food is so good I still have guests raving about all of the food and appetizers. I cant say enough good things. Lorraine Burgess
