Welcoming. Kind. Professional. Fun. Beautiful venue.
The venue cost a bit more than we were personally planning to spend, but after meeting with John and Christie, touring the grounds at Ainsworth, and being assigned an in-house wedding coordinator, we were sold! It's the best decision we made. It set the tone for choosing vendors who we knew would take good care of us on our wedding day.
Jocelyn, the in-house wedding coordinator, exceeded all expectations. She is a force. We met with her at six month out, one month out, and she was there onsite the day of our wedding. She guided us through countless decisions before and during the event. Our guests even commented on how awesome she was.
The venue - whoa! We visited Ainsworth in the middle of winter. We knew if it was that breathtaking in winter, that it was going to be amazing in August. It was. The grounds are meticulously kept and stunning. There are photo opportunities around every corner. We loved that we could get married outside, under the big Oak tree, and hold an indoor (air conditioned) reception.
All in all, we'd do it all over again. Ainsworth House & Gardens is forever a part of our story and we wouldn't have it any other way. Thank you John, Christie, and Jocelyn!
We held our ceremony and reception at Ainsworth House and Gardens this past weekend and are still basking in the glow of the beautiful event
I am particularly grateful for the help and support of the 'day of' coordinator. She ensured all ran smoothly so we could focus on the joy of the day. The venue owners, John and Christie, were very easy to work with - responsive and helpful through all stages of planning.
We received nothing but compliments from our guests on the beautiful space and the joy that was felt by all present.
