Amazing!

My sons wedding was at Chaumette. I have never had someone or place go as above and beyond their duties as the people working here did. They were absolutely AMAZING. We had to take shelter from a storm and they ensured all of our guests and vendors were safe and even made sure the party continued as we were in the shelter. It was absolutely an amazing night. Cassie and Emily are the BEST coordinators out there and Tommy was also AMAZING. Can't forget the bartender. He always made sure my drink was full with my choice of drink and was AMAZING. Thank you again for giving my son and new daughter in law the absolute best day of their lives.

Dream Wedding Destination

I cannot adequately express how thankful and truly happy I am that I chose Chaumette as the location for our wedding. Everything from the picturesque location to the accommodations, ceremony and reception venues, dinner and wine selections and assistance with day-of coordinating was top-notch. Our Day-of-Coordinator Collins was so professional and so key in ensuring that the vision I had for our dream day came true. Our wedding party and several more of our guests stayed in the villas on-site giving the weekend a true destination wedding feel in southeast Missouri wine country. Collins and the rest of the staff were so flexible and worked with us without question when our wedding had to be delayed due to COVID. The staff followed strict precautions throughout the event and it eventually went off without another hitch. I cannot commend everyone at Chaumette enough for the amazing wedding weekend we were able to have. I would highly recommend for anyone interested in an indoor or outdoor, traditional or rustic winery wedding!

What a location. The grounds are amazing, the villas on the site were very nice. Me and my wife got married at the chapel st chaumette and we were given a wedding co-ordinator called Beth. She was so good in helping us. Getting us what we wanted and made the whole day go so well. We had our meals made by the on site chef and the food was amazing southern fried chicken and the beef were so good! The wines were so good too. I'm not much of a wine person but I was addicted to wines. Overall the staff are amazing. The grounds were not just good to look at but make exceptional photo opportunitys. If you was contemplating chaumette it's a massive thumbs up here. You would not be disappointed. I have nothing but good stuff to say and even if we did get stressed about anything our wedding co-ordinator Beth excelled and made our day so amazing.

Not only is Chaumette beautiful on its own, the staff went above and beyond to make our day EXACTLY the way we wanted! We opted for the Sunday picnic wedding package and the bridal party spent the weekend in the Villas and enjoying wine, food, pool, and spa time together. The staff was so helpful leading up to the wedding, never pressured us into making decisions we were uncomfortable with, and answered all of our questions within 24 hours. With an outdoor venue, we had some concerns, but the staff always put our mind at ease with their recommendations and expertise. The only bummer was there was a wedding Saturday night and the villas/suites were all sold out, so our guests couldn't stay on property with us on Saturday, but what can you expect with such a beautiful venue! Wish I could relive the weekend again, and my husband and I are already planning to go back for our 1 year anniversary!

Dwane and I were married at Chaumette Winery October 9, 2016. We had been to two previous weddings at Chaumette and knew that it was the place for us. We had a Fall Chapel View wedding that exceeded our expectations. With the historic Chapel sitting in the background surrounded by woods, and Dwane and I standing under a beautiful fall Arbor, it was a spectacular setting to share with our family and friends. With the highly skilled professional staff, it made the planning easy and the execution flawless. On our wedding day the staff made sure that we had nothing to worry about. From a pre-wedding lunch for the wedding party , to opening the chapel doors for our magical entrance, to packing the gifts and decor at the conclusion of the reception--the staff did it all. Chaumette and their wonderful staff exceeded our expectations and everyone of our guests were so impressed with the location, the food, the decor and the beauty of our wedding Thank you Chaumette

Choosing Chaumette Winery was the best decision my husband and I could have made. It was stunning!! The food was amazing, the barn was beautiful, the ceremony was gorgeous, the service was impeccable but the best of all was Beth!!! She made our Wedding the most memorable experience a bride could have had. She was on top of everything for us and made sure the night went off without a hitch. She also decorated the Barn perfectly based on my instructions. She was an A Game Wedding Coordinator and I couldn't have asked for a better experience!! I would recommend to anyone looking for a different experience to hold your wedding and reception at Chaumette. Then all your friends and family stay in all the Villas for the after party. Absolutely loved this place! Thank you again - Becky O'Neill Romaine

We had our Summer 2016 wedding at Chaumette and could not have been more pleased with the entire experience. The chapel, Barrel Room, villas, and spa . . . all came together to make it a perfect, intimate setting for us and all of our guests. The entire experience exceeded our expectations with wedding coordinator Beth, wine expert Rodney, and Chef Rob feeling like old friends or family by the end of our journey. We will celebrate our anniversary there every year and intend to make frequent trips throughout the year. We highly recommend Chaumette for anyone's wedding or special event, or just a weekend getaway.

I just had my wedding at Chaumette on 10-24-15. Everything was amazing. Our day-of Coordinator Sharon was great. They clearly have done this many times before and it definitely showed throughout our entire planning process and the day of our wedding. We ended up renting villas to stay in & get ready in - they were beautiful. It made everything so easy the day of already being there. If you do not want to rent the villas you are also able to get ready in the Spa area if you are getting your hair & makeup done by them. If you are not getting hair & makeup done by them you can use the downstairs locker room area (however this is not private). We had our wedding ceremony on the lawn outside of the barn. It turned out beautiful! We were forecasted for 90% chance of rain, but thankfully we ended up being clear all day! The good news though, if you do end up having rain they have great plan B options for rain. While waiting for the ceremony to begin we were able to hang out in a room they have right next to the bathrooms. It was heated and worked out perfectly so that guests weren't trying to find us before the ceremony. While we were waiting Sharon was very attentive and helped get the ceremony moving. For our reception we had it in The Barn. The barn is right next to the lawn that we had the ceremony at so it was very easy for guests to go straight from the ceremony into the barn for cocktail hour. There are SO many amazing places for photos on their property.If you are planning on having a wedding here I would allow extra time for photos because there are so many cool areas for great shots! Of course, the vineyards are a great place for photos. The willow grove area also looks great. We ended up taking most of our pictures around the barn and in the loft. The food was amazing! So many compliments! Overall - AWESOME staff & venue!

If anyone needs a beautiful venue that covers anything you may need for your wedding day, this place is it! The entire staff is organized, attentive, and friendly! It is a little pricey, but you will not be disappointed with the outcome of the day. Everything went smoothly without a hitch. I loved this venue even more than I thought I could!

My husband and I had several of our firsts at Chaumette, our first real "date," our first "I love you," and several big turning points along the way. It made sense to have our wedding there. So much so, that we surprised them by not asking for a tour prior to getting down to business. We knew the property of Chaumette could be magical, but we didn't know how fantastic the staff would be to work with. From the start Jackie and our wedding coordinator, Sharon, were easy to work with and listened carefully to our requests. They were supportive of our decisions, and made time to help us along the way. We had our ceremony at St. Vincent's Chapel, which was exactly perfect for our needs. We followed the wedding with a reception in the ballroom. I spent hours obsessing over decorations- all of which the staff happily put up for me while I was in the Spa getting ready with my bridesmaids. The ballroom is beautiful without decor, but with my individual touches it was exactly what I envisioned. Chaumette was everything I hoped for in a venue. The food was absolutely amazing. I had more guests comment on the food than any other part of the wedding (and I can't even take offense.. because the food was that good.) The scenery is gorgeous, and offers a wide range of photo options. Best of all, the property is full service, offering several options for ceremony, reception, and picture locations, as well as a beautiful Spa and Villa's for the wedding night. I can't imagine that my wedding could have been more beautiful than it was, or that it could have gone more perfectly than it did, and I have the staff at Chaumette to thank for making the experience so wonderful. If you want to have a winery wedding, Chaumette is a high class option with great tasting wine, and fantastic customer service.

My husband and I were married at the Barn at Chaumette in September of 2014. It was everything I imagined and our guests were so impressed! The staff are wonderful. The food is AMAZING! The views are breath taking!
We used the spa for makeup and for the girls to get ready. My cosmetologist made sure my makeup looked perfect for me. The entire bridal party had lunch at the Tasting Room, Grapevine Grill. The food was delicious and a must on a very busy day. The staff did all the setup at the barn, so I didn't have to worry about it. They did an absolutely perfect job. It's hard to put into words the beauty of this venue. You have to visit and see it for yourself!
Thank you for such a beautiful experience!
Elizabeth & Lowell

My husband and I were engaged in Napa, so we knew we wanted to bring the same winery theme to our wedding but closer to home. When we visited Chaumette for the first time, we were absolutely blown away by how beautiful and picturesque it was. The owner, Jackie, took us on a private tour of the grounds and spent well over 2 hours with us telling us the story behind the winery she owned with her husband and answering every question we had about having our wedding there.

When I booked with Chaumette, I was assigned a wedding coordinator, Bri, who was there to help me with questions and keep me organized through the planning process. She was a total life saver especially since I lived over an hour away from Ste Genevieve and needed help with vendors.

My husband and I were married at Chaumette on August 30 and we couldn't be happier with decision of venue. We took full advantage of every amenity they had to offer including our rehearsal dinner in the Barrel Room, the Spa at Chaumette, the on-site villas and our ceremony and reception at the Barn. The Barn is tucked into a wooded corner on a hilltop, which makes it feel really private. The flowers and greenery planted around the Barn also makes it a gorgeous place for pictures (and helps save on florist costs!). Our ceremony was in August, so we were a little concerned about the heat and bugs. Luckily, there is a really nice breeze that passes through on the hilltop and the grounds are consistently sprayed for bugs so I didn't notice a thing! We had 154 guests and it didn't feel cramped at all, but I would not recommend going any higher in guest count. We had some friends and family who were gluten-free, vegan and vegetarian. They kindly provided different food options. Chef Adam is a serious asset to Chaumette. His food was incredible!

Overall, Chaumette is a really unique venue for a wedding and is complimented by an outstanding staff! Thanks a million!

I cannot really tell you how thankful I am for my experience at Chaumette. Everything was perfect. For a wedding experience, with all of its working parts, to be considered perfect is a major feat. The team worked hard to make sure that every detail was accounted for, that my personal needs were met, and they made accommodation on top of accommodation. Seriously,they made me gluten free cookies and used real lavender to make lavender syrup for a specialty cocktail. When I say they go beyond, I am not lying.
The space is gorgeous, the landscape is amazing, and I have to also emphasize that the food is awesome. We come from a family of chefs and major foodies, and they could not stop raving about the food. Wedding food tasting fabulous?? Sign up here!!!
We made the event a reunion weekend and stayed in the villas and used the spa services. We also had our rehearsal cocktail event there as well. Every single person had the best time ever. The villas are gorgeous. The spa is amazing and beautiful. The rehearsal food and service was impeccable.
I have no regrets and just hope a friend of mine chooses to get married there, so I can experience Chaumette all over again!

We fell in love with the venue even though it is a little over an hour from our home, in Town and Country. We got married at a nearby Catholic Church so have nothing to say about the Chapel. Our wedding Coordinator did an outstanding job. She was forthcoming with suggestions and we mostly used vendors recommended by Chaumette. I can't stress how grateful we are that they were so accommodating. We were NOT easy to work with. We estimated that many of our friends and family would not be able to make the trip, but ultimately had an unbelievable turn out with just over 200 guests and almost no last minute cancels. And, the weather was quite chilly so we were very happy when solutions for seating everyone were provided. We made a mess of our seating chart and did not have numbers on the place cards. We realized this just hours before the wedding was taking place. The owner and our coordinator, Bri, did not act exasperated at our incompetence. Rather, they calmly helped us sort through and get it done. We thought it would fun and economical to do our own centerpieces. We did save a ton and they were gorgeous but not sure it was worth the stress. My aunt was supposed to help my mom finish them on Friday but she got distracted with getting her family settled in. The 23 round tables each had 4 mason jars (1 large and 3 small) on them to be filled with roses and babies breath. The owner jumped in and started putting them together until my aunt got there. She was very accessible. We had three delicious appetizers. The Korean Beef skewers were delish. I am told the gourmet pizzas and crab cakes were also fantastic. Our entree was beef brisket with scalloped potatoes, asparagus and ? can't remember. It exceeded our expectations. My salad was pretty but needed more dressing. If I had everything to do over again, I would chose this venue all over!
We all stayed on site at the villas. They are expensive but well worth it. Absolutely beautiful and luxurious.

We got married at Chaumette in September in St. Vincents Chapel on the property. We then had our reception in the Ballroom with all services provided by Chaumette. We also had our rehearsal dinner in their Barrel Room the night before. All of the service we received was AMAZING. The Chapel is small and perfect. There is no other way to describe it. It has old style charm that you just can not find anywhere else. Lots of windows and natural lighting that made for wonderful pictures. There is a bridal suite below the chapel that is available for use. We used that for the final touches of getting ready and putting our dresses on. Also to hide from the Groom of course! We began planning our wedding almost a year prior to the date. Through that time they had a few changes in their wedding coordinators but all of them had the same thoughts and ways they treated us. They have very strict customer service and we were treated like kings and queens from the very first time we stepped foot on the property all the way through the event date. We stayed in a Villa for the night prior to and night of the wedding. The Villas are BEAUTIFUL. Absolutely stunning. I would highly recommend that if you get married on the property that you get a villa for the time that you are there. You will not be disappointed.

We went up several months prior to our event to have a FREE wine sampling and also to sample the foods that we would most likely be serving at the reception so that we could make final decisions and know exactly what we would be having. There is no way to describe how delicious this food is. We live an hour away from Chaumette and we go there as often as possible just to eat in the Grapevine Grill and drink some of our favorite wine! Chef Adam goes above and beyond to make sure every single dish is absolutely perfect!

I wish I could live this day over and over again because it was made to be absolutely perfect for us! I would recommend that venue to absolutely everyone !

All of the staff, including the owners Hank and Jackie, at Chaumette made my morning wedding and brunch very special. It was absolutely gorgeous! The scenery is breathtaking! I recommend Chaumette to anyone that is looking for a very elegant, romantic place to have your special day.

The expertise that we were shown at Chaumette and the follow-through was just terrific; amenities were very well-kept, the food was outstanding, and the wine was great! The whole day was so special for all of us, and the Chaumette staff was one step ahead every time. They knew what we needed before we knew we needed it, everyone took time out for the details and to pay attention to us and it all came out just perfectly. We look forward to returning to Chaumette for a weekend getaway soon...

As the mother of the bride, I can say that this venue was elegant, fun, and stress-free!!!! What more could you want?

Chaumette proved to be an amazing experience from start to finish for our July 2014 wedding. We had our rehearsal dinner on the porch overlooking the vineyards, our ceremony on The Barn lawn, and our reception in The Barn. Many of my guests stayed at the beautiful villas on site, coming early for a weekend getaway. Chaumette was a breath-taking location, the food was delicious, and the wine flowed freely. I appreciated how the staff worked tirelessly to help me plan and execute my nuptials. They guided me through the entire process and were incredibly flexible and available. The best part was that when the day finally arrived, they handled everything, and I was able to enjoy myself, my groom, and our guests without a worry for the details. I knew the staff at Chaumette would handle any hiccup that might arise. If I had to do it all over again, I wouldn't change a thing.

We were married in the Barn at Chaumette in October 2013. The Barn is the perfect rustic dream, creating an atmosphere like none other that I have experienced at a wedding. The natural beauty of the winery, and the barn venue create an ambiance that feels outside of the Midwest.The food at Chaumette is perfection, a quality you don't normally see at weddings that service hundreds of guests. Dinner at our rehearsal in the barrel room was delicious and intimate. Surrounded by wine barrels and candles, we dined on Chaumette chicken and homemade bread. Our pork at the wedding was such a unique pick, the menu was really a masterpiece. The night of our reception our guests kept complimenting the amazing food!
My only complaint throughout the process was the turn over of the staff. I hope that this was a rare experience, and that they have finally settled in, because they have such a good thing going now. I was very nervous when our first wedding planner left, but Jackie Johnson swooped in, and really made our experience fantastic. The spa also had a lot of turnover, which was nerve racking, but when Katherine came into the picture, I immediately felt better. Jackie Johnson is also VERY good at her job--you wouldn't expect her to take on as many roles as she does as the owner of the winery--making sure that all of your wishes come true. A wearer of many hats, she is a truly talented individual, very classy lady, and was a pleasure to work with.We are so thrilled that we were able to share our love of this beautiful winery with our wedding guests, and that we have such wonderful memories from our absolutely perfect day. If you are looking for a rustic winery wedding, you’ve found it!

My husband and I recently tied the knot at the newly restored Chaumette barn. Due to conflict with previous reserved venues, we contacted Chaumette only 13 weeks before our wedding. The wedding coordinator and managers were VERY helpful with quick getting things in order for the big day. They were very laid back and easy to get in touch with. Not only did the staff go out of their way to help us, the food and service was some of the best we've ever had at a wedding.The bar consisted of Chaumette's wine and local brews. Its been two months since our wedding, family and friends are still raving over the wonderful day. If your looking for a rustic, outdoor themed wedding there's nothing like it in the state of Missouri.

Our son Jacob and daughter –in-law Annelise married at Chaumette on September 6, 2014. The winery facilities provided a first rate venue for the rehearsal dinner, wedding, reception and lodging. Jackie, co-owner, and Bree, event coordinator, were personal, professional, efficient and flexible. The food was prepared elegantly and tasted great. A nice selection of house wines was also delicious. The service was cheerful and genuine. There were many last many changes the most urgent being a change of venue for the wedding two weeks prior to the wedding date from a local church to an outside wedding area off the “Barn” where the reception was held. The weather also provided some last minute decisions but Jackie and Bree handled these challenges flawlessly. Their genuine concern over making sure everything went smoothly for the bride/groom and their families was evident. We stayed several nights in one of the villas modeled after a French Chateau. It was elegant, roomy, comfortable and true to its French heritage. What a benefit to have lodging on the event site and not have to travel after the wedding. Overall, we were extremely happy with our experience with Chaumette and would highly recommend this winery for a wedding ceremony, reception, rehearsal dinner, lodging, dining or a get-a-away weekend.

We had our rehearsal dinner in the Barrell Room on Friday evening, our wedding in the chapel, and our reception in the ballroom. We had right at 100 guests, and the entire place worked out perfectly. Our guests absolutely loved the b&b amenities (we had all of the villas rented out for the whole weekend), the pool area, and the wine bar!! Rhonda, the coordinator was fabulous to work with, and my guests have given me so many wonderful comments about our weekend. It's so beautiful there, I truly have nothing bad to say about it. I highly recommend Chaumette as a wedding venue! They made many new future patrons by making my wedding so beautiful and special; my guests and I will all be returning there many times in the future!

My husband and I were recently married at The Barn at Chaumette. It was hands down the BEST day of our lives! The Barn embodies the definition of rustic elegance. In fact, the entire property is simply stunning! The Villas, The Spa, The Barrel Room, and The Barn are beautifully furnished with no detail over looked! The staff at Chaumette were professional, organized, and accomodating. From the day we booked the venue until the last call was made at our reception, the staff made sure we were taken care of. Our guests were constantly approaching us throughout the night of our reception to compliment the unique venue and the AMAZING food!!! We couldn't be happier with the out come of our hard work and planning! The Chaumette team made our wedding dream a reality! It was truly a PERFECT experience and we look forward to spending many anniversaries at Chaumette Vineyards and Winery!

Happy Wedding Planning!

Chaumette is located in a beautiful are of Missouri. They are very accommodating and willing to work with your needs and desires. The food is wonderful and the wines are very good. The have a cute little chapel that you can use for the ceremony and a very nice ballroom that can be used for the reception. The only downside is that it is somewhat far from St. Louis and there aren't very many nearby accommodations for out of town guests (except the villas which are on the Chaumette property). However, it was perfect for our intimate wedding.

My husband and I fell in love with Chaumette the moment we saw it about 2 years ago. We immediately knew where we wanted to get married! During our two years of planning, both Jackie and Sharon were very helpful and attentive to our needs, and all of our questions were answered in a timely manner. Overall, our wedding experience at Chaumette was perfect, and we couldn't have asked for a better day. The venue is beautiful and the view from the Barn is breathtaking. Every wedding has some hiccups, our only complaints were the crunchy baked beans (they were extremely undercooked) which was unfortunate since we only offered two main entree side dishes to our guests, and an inadequate amount of set up time. Our wedding was very DIY, and we weren't allowed to start setting up until 10am. At 3:00, there were still boxes lying everywhere and guests were scheduled to show up at 3:45. In the end, everything worked out great and our guests are still raving about how beautiful and fun our wedding turned out! I would definitely recommend Chaumette to future Brides.

My husband and I had our ceremony in front of the Barn at Chaumette in September of 2013. My hair, nails, and makeup were done by the Salon - they were very accommodating for me and my bridesmaids and mom(s)! Since we got ready at the Salon, the entire wedding party got to hang out in the area and have lunch before the wedding pictures were taken - it was very nice, as they have a picnic area with tables and chairs. We used the place settings and decor that came with the venue, which was nice. The one negative thing was that we were told that we could bring in an ice cream cake, but then were told that we could not use a refrigerator or freezer. The bridal party cake was melty, but the sheet cakes for the guests turned out fine.

Jackie and Sharon are the two wonderful ladies that I dealt with the most in planning my wedding. They were both extremely professional and helpful in our planning. I went in clueless but they were there to thoroughly answer all of my questions and give great suggestions. Our wedding ended up being absolutely gorgeous! The location is beautiful, the food is PHENOMENAL, and the people are wonderful. I would also highly recommend staying at the villas and stopping by the spa to top off the experience. Couldn't have been happier with our day!

We held our reception in the Vineyard Room, our ceremony in the Chapel and rented out almost all of the villas for our event. The bar/bartenders and food were the highlights of our wedding. However, I would not recommend using the spa for hair and make-up services.

I got married at the Barn at Chaumette on 8/31/13. The wedding and reception space was beautiful and the day of staff was very helpful in making my vision come to life. The issue that I had with was the service that we received while planning our wedding. Shortly after we decided on the Barn at Chaumette the wedding coordinator left the company and we were left to deal with the winery owner in our wedding planning. She was rude, unprofessional, and very unaccommodating to me, my family, and even my vendors. I had to ask 3-4 times before getting simple things like a picture of the arbor that they allow people to use for wedding ceremonies. Also, she hung up on my mother and offended one of my vendors so much that she told us that she would never work with Chaumette again. Luckily, a new wedding coordinator was hired shortly before my wedding and she was much more responsive and helpful. All in all, this is a wonderful wedding venue but be prepared for some headaches along the way.

My husband and I were married in September at the barn at Chaumette. While in our guests’ eyes the ceremony and reception went off without a hitch, our interactions with Chaumette’s staff during the planning and setup process was a nightmare. On the day of the wedding it became blatantly obvious how bad the lack of communication between Chaumette’s staff is. For example, a man named Keith, who apparently is “weddings director” at Chaumette (although we had never spoken to him in the process of planning our wedding at Chaumette) all of a sudden appeared. He began to tell us that we could not do things that we had previously discussed with both the owner of Chaumette, and the multiple wedding coordinators we had been told to work with. It was clear the "weddings director" had no clue what the plan was for our wedding, since he had not been involved in any part of the planning process. Of course when we pointed out that those things were specifically included in our contract he became overtly rude and difficult to work with for the duration of the event. The dinner was a bit cold, but good, however, guests complained that some of the pork burgers we had paid Chaumette $396 to prepare as a surprise late night snack for our guests were literally bloody and setup nowhere near where guests would know to grab one when they left (essentially a waste of money). Also, we pre-paid 20% gratuity on the ~$6,755 bill for food and drinks during the reception, however, there was only one bartender on staff while the line for drinks was out the door (she informed us they were “short staffed”), AND the bartender had her own jar out asking for tips on top of the ~$1,351 we had already paid in gratuity for the staff. They also announced last call 15 minutes early, and when there was half an hour left at our reception, the owner and other Chaumette staff literally stood there with their arms crossed frowning at all of our guests which was extremely awkward and uncomfortable.

Chaumette's management and service are incredibly poor, bordering on offensive and rude! I should have known not to have my wedding here after I hosted a small group there for my 30th birthday and left after getting told to move here or go over there and getting no service after 45 minutes. Don't let the view fool you or the fact that they have rooms, reception space, chapel, etc. all in one place - dealing with the management is NOT worth it. They couldn't have gotten it more wrong! From our food at our reception being ready over an hour before multiple emails stated that the wedding party would even be entering the venue, to them forgetting to provide ushers for our guests, to the grooms surprise cake not coming out after the DJ announced it (giving it away) multiple times - we have horrible memories of Chaumette's coordination of our wedding day. The lady that runs the salon works hours away and double booked our day and provided expensive quotes for what they offer. She was incredibly offensive in closing the deal, assuming we were going to basically trash the place while we were getting ready. We are adults. We cancelled everything when they we couldn't come to an agreement on prices and times a WEEK before the wedding after everything had been set for months.

The rooms were great and the guests enjoyed that space and the pool. The food was ok, but after being hounded the entire time we were taking wedding photos to come down since the food was ready, nothing tasted good. SO many things we had agreed on months prior fell through the cracks and when we approached her at the wedding she screamed at me. When my family met with the management afterwards her response to being presented with all of the emails with everything that we had agreed upon was "So I guess we ruined your wedding - sue us!" Are you serious? We are going to start our happy lives and not look back, but to write reviews so others know what they are dealing with here. They were great during the initial weeks of planning as long as we were writing the checks (a LOT of checks) but on the day-of they were nowhere to be found. This would have been a great setting to return to for multiple anniversaries, but myself and my family and friends will never set foot on their property again. That is how strongly we feel about their ability to coordinate these types of events, how we were treated, and our experience at this venue under this management. Do not patronize this establishment!
