    Stress-Free March 2023 Wedding

    My now husband (who is originally from Huntsville) and I are based in Brooklyn, NY and were looking for a venue that could fit about 100-150 people and cost-efficient. Carla gave us a tour of Hampton Cove Wedding Venue and we instantly loved it.

    The venue has so many options for photos, a rain plan, a fountain for the ceremony background and a large bridal suite. The reception comes pre-decorated so you don't need to splurge much for decorations and comes with tables and chairs so you don't need to rent extras. They also offer a wine/beer server, photobooth, day-of coordinator package, and linen package–which were totally worth the money so we didn't have to go through the trouble of having to find those things separately.

    Throughout the past 18 months, Heather (Carla's daughter and main coordinator) was able for calls and emails. Whenever we visited the site, she helped us think of ways to enhance the space. When we had a lot of last minute changes and guest drop off the week of our wedding, she and her team were so calm, cool, and collected. They were so efficient in getting the space set up and took care of us along the way.

    My husband and I couldn't have had a better venue and more importantly, better people to help us execute our wedding. Carla and Heather made the day easy and fun. Definitely keep them in mind when looking for a beautiful, stress free venue for your wedding.

    Best wedding venue around.

    Heather and Carla, the owners of this venue, are the true reason that our wedding went so smoothly and turned out a dream come true. They have made this venue a real-life fairytale. Different ceremony sites, decoration ideas, flower experience, etc. I couldn't have pictured our wedding anywhere else that would have been as beautiful as the Hampton Cove Wedding Venue. We got to have multiple meetings with them and they were so responsive to my many many emails. When we didn't have ideas they were quick to provide some. They offered a list of vendor ideas that helped us get the ball rolling. On the day of the wedding, they had everything set up and made sure things went smoothly. These two ladies, and their team, took such good care of us, the wedding party, and our guests during the wedding. Having them during the planning process really did make it 10x LESS stressful than it could have been. Thank you Heather and Carla for everything you did for us! 10/10 recommend this venue and its wedding planning service.

    Wedding dreams made real

    I need to start off by saying that I couldn't have had the wedding I did without the amazing owners and staff at HCWV. Carla and Heather are top-notch! From the moment I emailed them it was a easy-going. Like many brides I was worried about all the pieces coming together, especially because I was planning it all on my own but HCWV put my mind at ease. The venue itself is the most beautiful, the most out of a fairytale place I could have imagined. Carla was so helpful, always there to answer questions and guide me in times of stress or when I started to get overwhelmed during planning. She made amazing recommendations, many of the vendors I used came from her and it made the entire wedding run smooth. I also used them for my day of coordinating, when I say everything went off without a hitch I mean it. I can't recommend the venue enough. It offers two ceremony sites, one is covered in case of bad weather (which we used for our first look,) it has a gorgeous reception area, and beautiful bride and groom suites. The most perfect place, I couldn't be happier with my experience!

    Tremendous venue

    The venue was beautiful and the staff could not have been more helpful in making our wedding perfect. The outdoor venue was a little buggy, but it was a minor inconvenience at most. We got a number of compliments from our guests on the beauty of the venue and the overall ambiance of the wedding. Highly recommended.

    Stress Free Perfect Day

    There are a lot of challenges planning a wedding in a pandemic and Heather and Carla made my life so much easier. We had booked the venue a month before the pandemic hit and I was also trying to plan it from across the country in California. I went back and forth so many times on how to have a safe wedding and Heather was guiding me through it all. We finally decided to have a 30 person wedding and it turned out absolutely beautiful. Heather and Carla took care of all the details and I was completely stress-free the entire day. I highly recommend their wedding planning/coordination package. You won't regret it!

    Beautiful venue, wonderful people to work with!

    My husband and I got married in March and can't say enough wonderful things about Hampton Cove Wedding Plantation and the people who run it! From day one, Heather and Carla were supportive, realistic, and so helpful with creating our perfect wedding! While the venue itself is a bit of an investment, you seriously can't beat the quality you'll receive.
    Heather and Carla led us in the right direction in every aspect and had the perfect recommendations for vendors that were reasonably priced and so easy to work with. We took their recommendations for our florist, catering, cake, and officiant, and it was seriously the most perfect day. We didn't have to worry about a single thing because they knew who to work with and how to work with them. Their wedding planning/day-of coordination package is 1000% worth every penny! My family and friends still talk about how effortless and seamless our wedding day was, and we couldn't agree more! If you are looking for an elegant, rustic venue with indoor and outdoor ceremony options and great people to work with, this is definitely the right place!

    Over the Top!

    I can't say enough about how beautiful this venue is. Heather and Carla were so great throughout the entire experience, from the planning, to the walk through to the big day!.. The arbor, fountain and grounds are stunning, and made for a beautiful fall wedding. The reception venue is perfect. It is large enough to get your dance on and yet intimate enough to feel you can actually visit with all your friends and family. The photo booth pictures will make for many great memories of the night for years to come! Made my wedding a dream come true!

    Dream Wedding

    I had my dream wedding at HCWP and it wouldn't have been pulled off if it wasnt for the amazing people that worked there! Heather and Carla are a daughter/mother super team that make sure your wedding happens just the way you want it! The venue is breathless, the ceremony site is perfect, and I loved having so much room in the bridal suite for me and all the girls to get ready! We didn't have to do a lot of decorations because the venue itself is already set up very nicely! The best thing amount working with them is the day of your wedding. You think you have all this time to do everything you need to do, but guess what brides you dont! You need a team of people to run around and handle everything for you so you can ENJOY your day and just relax! They even have a golf cart to shuttle you around so you arent walking everywhere in your wedding dress! They have headsets to communicate to the entire wedding staff on what is happening and when people need to make their next moves. It is honestly amazing what this team pulls off! I feel like there is so much more I could say, but really if you go check this place out I think you will fall in love just as I did. Thank you HCWP!

    The BEST Wedding Venue!

    I honestly cannot say enough good things about Hampton Cove Wedding Plantation! Carla and Heather are phenomenal and run an amazing venue. They have thought of every detail and make the whole process so much easier and made it way less stressful for me and my mom. On the day of, they were so attentive and helpful, even to helping one of our ushers sew back on a suit button that fell off! They are so experienced and can recommend plenty of other great vendors too! We picked our caterer and DJ based on their suggestions and they were wonderful too! Worth every single penny! Our wedding wouldn’t have been as amazing as it was without them!

    Perfect Venue!

    HCWP was our dream venue. Carla and Heather were nothing but helpful and wonderful to work with. They even served as our day-of coordinators, which worked out just perfectly. The venue itself is just beautiful. There are two ceremony sites (outdoor & covered, both dreamy), an indoor/outdoor reception area (a redone barn with AC that saved us), and endless photo opportunities. The barn included an adorable bridal suit and grooms room as well. We couldn't have asked for a better, more beautiful venue!

    Hampton Cove Wedding Plantation allowed for a stress free wedding experience! The vendors madd is feel like family and took very good care of us!

    I HIGHLY recommend this vendor! It is a family owned business. They work hard as a team and they make everyone feel like part of their family. You can definitely feel their love and care as they work to get your big day ready.

    My dream wedding

    I honestly could not have asked for a better experience with Hampton Cove Wedding Plantation! Heather and Carla go above and beyond during the entire process to make sure the day of the wedding goes as smoothly as possible! There is no other wedding venue out there that can compete with the excellence that you get from Hampton Cove! It's absolutely beautiful and makes you feel so at home! I seriously couldn't have asked for a more perfect experience. They truly made our dream wedding come true and we could not have asked for a better night! I highly recommend this venue. You will not regret it!

    One great day

    Carla, Heather and Greg provided outstanding support and guidance during my daughter, Staci’s wedding. Their help meant a great deal to my family during this special day for our daughter and son-in-law. I could not have asked for things to run any smoother than they did, IT WAS ONE GREAT DAY thanks to their help. If your getting married this facility and staff will exceed all your expectations, it’s a great facility with an outstanding staff.

    Awesome to work with

    Carla, Greg, and Heather were great to work with. My wedding day went off without a hitch and it couldn’t have gone better! Using their wedding planning services was worth the extra but of money because they made my life and my moms life so easy! They took care of everything. And the golf cart really came in handy with my grandparents. If you’re looking for a beautiful venue with some really nice and organized people, HCWP is a great place to consider! I wouldn’t change anything.

    My Dream Wedding

    I cannot say enough about the amazing experience we had with Hampton Cove Wedding Plantation! They made planning our dream wedding a breeze - even though we were living and planning from Florida! Heather and the team were always so quick to respond to any question I sent their way. Not to mention the venue is absolutely dreamy!! We had a pop up rain shower right before our ceremony and the team switched everything over to plan B so fast nobody could tell it wasn't plan A! They are all wonderful and I highly HIGHLY recommend spending your special day with them at Hampton Cove!

    The venue is absolutely stunning! The grounds are well kept. One of thing that makes them stand out from any other wedding venue is that they have an outdoor ceremony site for when mother nature is cooperating, as well as a covered site that is equaling as stunning. Heather and Carla are absolutely amazing at what they do! They were there every step of the way during the planning phase. On the day of the wedding, they make it as stress free as possible.

    I can't say enough about the ladies and this venue. Heather and Carla were more than accommodating and didn't scold me when I showed up late to my own wedding :) They helped with all of the decorations (additional service) and they made sure that everything went off without a hitch.
    The venue itself was absolutely beautiful and I recommend it for anyone looking to have a spring or summer wedding.
    Thank you guys so much!!

    Wow!! I don't even know where to begin. I will start off by commenting on behalf of the professionalism provided by the staff at Hampton Cove Wedding Plantation. From the time we arrived until our grand exit, Carla and Heather made us feel like family. Our original wedding venue burnt to the ground about three months before our wedding date. We began frantically looking for other venues that would host our wedding. We stumbled across Hampton Cove Wedding Plantation and had to go check it out. The venue was absolutely stunning! After touring the venue and sharing our story with the staff, they were more than willing to do whatever it took to accommodate us in this desperate time. Having our wedding here was the best decision we have ever made. From the moment we arrived on our big day, the staff was alert and ready to go to work. We never even had to hardly speak to a vendor because it was all done by the professional wedding planners that are also the owners of the venue. Carla and Heather took care of everything from food vendors, DJ services, Photographer, decorations and every other vendor associated with our big day. After speaking with them about how we envisioned our wedding, they took every single detail into consideration and developed a plan for our big day. Everyone knew where to line up and who was walking with whom during the ceremony. Having a staff that knows what is going on is a huge burden lifted off of anyone on their big day. The venue was absolutely stunning and all of our guests raved about how beautiful everything was. I highly recommend this venue and I can assure that you will not be disappointed with any aspect of the venue!

    Amazing venue and people!

    We would recommend this place to everyone! We have been married for over a year now, and we still talk about this place. Aside from being beautiful, the attention and the service you receive is amazing. Planning a wedding is stressful, Hampton Cove takes away a lot of that stress.

    I honestly could not have asked for a better experience with Hampton Cove Wedding Plantation! Heather and Carla go above and beyond during the entire process to make sure the day of the wedding goes as smoothly as possible! The week of, they organized a schedule for all of my vendors so I would not have to. On the day of, they were helpful, responsive, and overall AMAZING!!! I do not have one negative comment! They made my day absolutely perfect, and I could not thank them enough for everything!
