    Everything was so great from day one. Kristen was absolutely amazing. She made planning a reception so easy. She knows what she is doing! The venue was so beautiful and was the perfect size for my wedding. Kristen made sure everything went perfectly and it did! The food at Shady Valley was also amazing. I would recommend this venue to anyone!!

    After my daughter and I initial meeting with Kristen, we knew we had met someone who was very organized. Not only is Kristen organized, she is professional, friendly, calm and energetic she has a phenomenal can do attitude. Kristen has a personal way that just make you feel "everything will be fine." My daughter summed it up by saying "She is a people person." I never once worried about a thing. I knew Kristen would "make it happen." She knew what you wanted and would make the right judgement calls as needed. Upon delivery of the wedding cake there was a MAJOR incident. The five tier wedding cake was now four tiers and there were damage to the other tiers. I was having a mental breakdown. Kristen and the Chef assured me that they could somehow fix it. They sent out for flowers, whipped up icing and magically we had a wedding cake again and they guest were none the wisest. Thanks again for making my daughter's wedding day, July 30, 2016, a day to remember.

    This is a perfect venue if you want to work with an Events Coordinator who really knows how to make a bride and groom or bride and bride feel special and put on a GREAT WEDDING!!! Kristen and staff were amazing at accommodating our every wish and need and made sure our day was perfect. Chef Felix also put together a special menu for us and did not disappoint!! I would recommend Shady Valley to anyone looking for a amazing wedding experience and location for a very reasonable price.

    Brittany and the entire staff at Shady Valley CC are absolutely amazing! Brittany was there whenever we needed her and really knows what she is doing when it comes to weddings. She made our day so stress free and easy! When our centerpieces were set up wrong just a little bit before the wedding, brittany was right there to calm me down and fixed every single one of them!! Everyone went above and beyond and made our day so much more than we ever could have imagined. The club is beautiful and has several different outdoor ceremony locations to choose from which is so nice and the food is DELICIOUS! Thank you to Brittany and all of the staff!

    Shady Valley Country Club is a very accommodating venue and will provide a beautiful wedding ceremony and reception for you with delicious gourmet food. Shady Valley is such a wonderful place to have your wedding! Brittany is a professional coordinator who will help the bride and her party remain calm on the big wedding day. Our wedding increased from 150 expected guests to 200 two weeks before the wedding. Brittany and the team at Shady Valley were still able to make our original plans work. We moved the dance floor outside and still had plenty of room and wonderful food for our guests. I am a perfectionist, and she made sure every detail was in place. On the day of the ceremony she herself helped my coordinator redesign our arch on the spot!! It was beautiful. She also allowed us to hang our swing in a tree on the hillside for a photo-op. The quiet serenity of Shady Valley away from highways and byways within a large city, makes it a lovely place for a wedding!! Best place in Arlington for your wedding!

    We had a great event at Shady Valley! Ashley was always very quick to respond and worked with us every step of the way. She even arranged two vegan dishes for my family members to eat during the wedding. She took care of all the setup the day of the wedding which was amazing! There was one minor mishap with the sand ceremony items not being set up until we hunted them down and a couple of our decorations got overlooked, but overall everything worked out! I would highly recommend Shady Valley. Everything such as linens and setup is included. Ashley went above and beyond to help us and even went with us to a wholesale florist the day before the wedding and arranged our centerpieces for us! All of our guests have commented on how nice everything looked and how good the food was. Our outdoor ceremony was beautiful and our guests had a great time.

    The venue is gorgeous without any decor. I couldn't have gotten through any of this without Ashley (the Wedding Coordinator). She is incredibly helpful & knowledgable and has wonderful taste. She responded quicker than any other vendor I've ever done business with and she really seemed to enjoy her work. What a wonderful place for a reception!

    We had our Wedding ceremony, reception and rehersal dinner at shady valley and I couldn't have asked for a better venue and staff to help with our big day. I am one of those who feel that I have to do everything if not it won't be done right, and Ashley reassured me, worked with me and made me very comfortable to let her handle everything. My cousin had her wedding reception here and recommended Shady Valley to me and I am very thankful she did. We looked at a variety of venues and everyone charged extra for simple things like linens and centerpieces. With shady valley everything was included in our package. The food was delicious. I have not one complaint of Shady Valley. Ashley was also very helpful with our timeline for our wedding day. If it wasn't for her to keep us on track I don't know what I would've done. I want to thank everyone at Shady Valley for making our day easy going.

    Ashley Longoria made our lives so much easier!! She helped us every step of the way in planning, preparing, setting-up andand tearing-down our ceremony and reception. Even when things went wrong (which is inevitable), Ashley went above and beyond to fix things immediately, never leaving us any reasons to stress out about anything. I would highly recommend Ashley Longoria and the Shady Valley Golf Club to anyone looking for a wedding venue. My husband and I could not have been happier.

    Ashley at Shady Valley gave me a great rate and provided everything I needed for my ceremony and reception. She was a little under-staffed, but everything came together and I couldn't have asked for a more beautiful wedding.

    Thanks, Shady Valley!

    Ashley and her staff were so amazing in the planning and execution of my wedding day. We had a three month engagement, and Ashley did a great job of helping us get everything together. We even decided to add some things the week of the wedding, and she was able to get everything that we needed!

    We have had nothing but compliments from our family and friends on the food, the drinks and the entire event. Ashley and her staff (Maria, Cali, Cassie, Chelsea, Zach and Simon) were more than we could have asked for. They would do things before we even thought to ask for them.

    I am so very thankful to Ashley. She truly helped put my wedding together, and made it more than I could have ever imagined.

    We had our wedding on October 5th 2013. Our ceremony location was near the pond on the 1st hole between two crepe myrtle tress. Just perfect!! The weather decided to be not so perfect that day and was cold, windy and rainy. That didn't stop us! We moved the ceremony up 30 min and had a few rain drops but our wedding was the most memorable and beautiful ceremony ever! Shady Valley hosted our party of 125 we had great food, fabulous drinks and over-all great service.
    Ashley Longoria really pulled everything together. She was organized, professional, worked well under pressure(the rain!). I loved her because she understood our wedding vision and made our dream a reality! She worked with the DJ and kept our party flowing and on time, and if we wanted to spend longer on something (visiting with friends, dancing, anything) she had no problem accommodating our request. She had the food staff prepare two special dishes for our vegan guests and children, mingled with guest and attended to our every need that night. Our food was waiting for us when we sat down and we never waited for a drink. I could go on and on about her! We had a fantastic time and would recommend Shady Valley and Ashley Longoria to anyone looking for a special wedding or event.

    I found Shady Valley Golf Club through this website. They were so pleasant to work with! My husband also liked the rustic interior. My husband and I are in the military so we had to travel in from out of state, but SVGC also worked with our family while we were away. Our coordinator communicated well through email and phone. Also, the food was delicious. Shady Valley worked with me to produce a classy, small wedding. Excellent quality, no regrets, and fond memories!

    Both my wife and I couldn't have been happier with Shady Valley and the people. Molly was a pure pleasure to work with and very accommodating. The food was great and everyone was very happy with the selection. Some guests commented that it was the best BBQ they had ever had. Planning a weeding and getting all the pieces to bit is not an easy task, but the folks at Shady Valley totally made the reception an easier task with their input and help. Great place and folks.

    I really am amazed by how this venue took care of practically everything. It came with so many things to offer for an affordable price. I'm so glad that the wedding planner (Molly) was there to ease my stress. At some point, I was completely stressed out, that I relinquished all trust in her to help plan my day and I'm glad I did because it was perfect. I couldn't have asked for a better wedding planner or a better venue!!! It was gorgeous!!!

    We had our daughter's wedding there. We are from out of state and had to do alot over the phone until we got there a couple days before. They did an excellent job. She got exactly what she wanted with their help and she loved every minute of it. The venue was beautiful and the wedding area was gorgeous. We were more than pleased with the food, room, atmosphere, and the service we received. We had extra attention from the event planner for the wedding which help make the day. It was a relaxed day because everything was taken care of. Our daughter is not an over the top kind of girl, but you would of not been able to tell that from the look of the wedding absolutely gorgeous. They went far above for us, the wedding in Texas could have been a disaster, but with their help it was far worth the trip, time and travel. We are still talking about it. We would recommend it to everyone.

    I had both my wedding ceremony and reception at Shady Valley on 8/21/10 with 125 guests.

    Venue - I’m so, so glad I choose this venue. Everything was perfect! The location was easy to find and in a good neighborhood. My ceremony was done outside. The landscaping was beautiful. I was worried that it would be too hot for the guests. However, it was shaded on all sides so it turned out great. The banquet room was a bit dark so we just played on that and used candles as the centerpiece and that made it feel romantic. There was a large dressing area for both the guys and the girls. All of the staff was super friendly and helpful for all my guests. The floor plan for the reception was perfect. Guests are still telling me today how beautiful it was. One lady told me it was the nicest wedding she had ever been too. So that made me feel good.

    Coordinator - Right from the start I loved the Coordinator (Robyn). She was well organized and offered a lot of helpful suggestions throughout the entire process. I was on a budget and she came up with ways to help me stay in within that budget. On the day of my wedding I did not have to do a thing. She handled everything from decorating to pining boutonnieres on the guys. She even handled putting out and packing up all the extra items we brought in. I was very nervous about a vendor I hired. I told her my concerns a couple days before and the day of she told me not to worry it’s taken care of. She really listened to what I wanted and made sure it happened. I’m so glad I had her.

    Food - The food was fabulous. They had a list but I had no idea what food to choose so I went by Robyn’s recommendation and it tasted great!!! I got lots of compliments about it. They only showed to offer a buffet but they were flexible. I wanted a sit down served dinner instead of buffet and that was no problem. Everything was served without a hitch. Everyone got their food served quickly and someone was always walking around filling up the drinks and making sure my guests were happy. Later that night they even served my cake for us.

    Overall – I couldn’t have been happier. Shady Valley totally exceeded my expectations. The flexibility, friendliness and willingness to help and to make everyone happy made all the difference. Our wedding was so stress free that we were just able to enjoy it. A day that we will cherish forever.

    I know picking a venue is a really hard decission. If you have any questions on this place and want a brides thoughts. You are welcome to contact me. Just ask the coordinator at Shady Valley for my email. I will be happy to help.

    WOW!! is the word we would use to describe Shady Valley.. Robyn and staff made our day very relaxed, this is the one stop location for all of your wedding needs, they took care of everything right down to the napkins. Our family and friends loved the food, the service, and atmosphere. My husband and I felt like King and Queen for the day. Robyn provided us with personal attention, and made sure our day was everything we dreamed of. We enjoyed ourselves so much we will be having our 1 year anniversary party with Shady Valley, also referring everyone in search of a venue to Robyn. Thank you shady Valley!!!!!

    Shady Valley Country Club ensured that I had no worries, and no stress throughout my entire planning process.
    The club itself is beautiful as is, but Kristen Spruill (our event coordinator) really took the design over the top for our big day. She attended to all of the little details as well as the big ones. During the planning process she knew of the best vendors: Flowers, Cake, Photography and set me in the right direction. She even had a few surprises the day of, that made my day that much more special. The staff was amazing. Our bartenders kept up with my heavily drinking audience and the buffet attendants got the food out quickly, and organized. I didn't have a single worry the day or night of. Kristen made sure of it. I highly recommend Shady Valley Country Club. The venue is beautiful, the staff is perfection, and the food was phenomenal.
