Dream venue
The Ryland Inn was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the moment we first reached out, they were quick to respond, incredibly kind, and flexible in accommodating our needs. The entire staff was welcoming and genuinely wanted to ensure we had the best wedding day possible. They went above and beyond to make my dream wedding come true and were so low-stress about everything. The quality of their work was simply stunning - the venue was absolutely beautiful, elegant, and perfect in every way. I cannot recommend The Ryland Inn highly enough to any couple looking for a truly special and stress-free wedding experience.

Our dream venue!
The Ryland Inn seriously made all of our wedding dreams come true. From the day we toured all the way to our wedding, they truly showed up for us in every single way. Giana was our main point of contact, along with Sam, and both of them were pure magic! They made sure that everything went smoothly, and that nothing was out of place. I also have to shout out Faith and Billie who made our wedding day so special with their attentiveness and kindness. Everyone at The Ryland Inn is truly a professional. Our friends and family could not stop raving about how beautiful the venue was, how delicious the food was, and how amazing the service was. It was an unbelievable day, and we are so incredibly thrilled we went with The Ryland Inn.

Wedding
We had our wedding at the Ryland Inn in August and it was absolutely perfect! The Ryland was the first place we toured when we were looking at wedding venues, and nowhere else came close to comparing. We had Giana as our event stylist and she was amazing – answering all of our questions, knowing every detail, and making the entire process seamless. Giana walked us through the entire wedding planning process and was essential to making the day so perfect. The morning of we got ready in the Hayloft, and it was nice being close to see everything being set up. We were in the Grand Ballroom, the inside of which is beautiful with the chandeliers and fireplace, and so is the outdoor area. The food was outstanding and received so many compliments from our guests. I’m so happy we chose the Ryland Inn!

A Dream Wedding
A Dream Wedding at the Ryland Inn We couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful and convenient venue than the Ryland Inn for my daughter’s wedding day. From the stunning location to the seamless flow between the ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, and photo opportunities—all in one place—it made everything so easy for us and our guests. We didn’t have to travel anywhere, which allowed us to truly relax and enjoy every moment. The service was absolutely exceptional. The entire staff was warm, professional, and genuinely kind. They were attentive to every detail and incredibly accommodating, going above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. Being able to get ready on-site made the day even more stress-free and special. A special thank you to Giana Phillips, our amazing event stylist. She was incredibly responsive and helpful throughout the entire planning process and on the big day. She anticipated our needs and handled everything with grace and care. It truly was a day to remember, and we are so grateful to the Ryland Inn for helping bring our vision to life so perfectly. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a top-tier wedding experience.
