The Jenkins Wedding

Our wedding day at Burlington Weddings was truly magical! From start to finish, everything fell perfectly into place, making it the most wonderful day of our lives. Madison was no doubt a key part of making our day so special. She took the time to understand our vision and executed it flawlessly, ensuring every detail was just as we imagined.

The staff's responsiveness and readiness to address any issues or questions that arose were impressive. They were always on hand to assist and provide guidance, which brought us a great sense of comfort throughout the planning process. Additionally, their flexibility and willingness to accommodate our requests made us feel truly valued as clients. We toured 8-10 other local venues and there is no doubt that we made the right choice.

The Bridal Suite was pricey BUT made the night before the wedding very special for the girls to gather, fellowship and plan for the BIG DAY.

In conclusion, we can't thank Burlington Weddings and specifically Madison, enough for her dedication and hard work in making our wedding day a dream come true. The entire team's commitment to excellence and ability to bring our vision to life surpassed all our expectations. Thank you, Burlington Weddings, for being a part of our special day!

Highly Recommend!

Our wedding at Burlington was absolutely magical, and a huge part of that was thanks to the venue itself. From the very beginning, we were drawn to its beautiful blank slate and timeless elegance of the property. It gave us the freedom to truly customize our wedding and bring our vision to life.

One of the biggest advantages of Burlington was their flexibility with access to the venue since we were guaranteed to be the only wedding for the entire weekend, a rare find! We were able to spend a considerable amount of time at the venue 1-2 days leading up to the wedding, which was invaluable for the long set-up process, especially since we opted to DIY a lot of decorations. This relieved so much stress and allowed us to really personalize every detail, while also being able to sit back and truly enjoy the entire day of our wedding.

The venue also had an impressive inventory of items available for use. The variety of tables, rolling bars, and other rentable items made planning so much easier. They really thought of everything!

What truly set Burlington apart were some of their unique offerings that we didn't find at other venues. The outdoor heaters were a lifesaver for our evening dessert hour, keeping our guests comfortable even as the temperature dropped. The cornhole boards added a fun and casual element to our cocktail hour that everyone enjoyed. The fully operational vintage concessions trailer was a HUGE hit for late-night ice cream service – such a unique and memorable touch! And the groomsmen suite? Absolutely fantastic! It was so important that the groom and his party also had a dedicated space to relax and get ready.

Perhaps the most amazing feature of all was the bridal cottage. Having the ability to add on an overnight stay was a game-changer! Being able to get ready on-site bright and early took so much stress out of the morning, allowing us to maximize the entire wedding day. The cottage itself was beautifully decorated, clean, and had plenty of space, comfortably sleeping six. The three makeup/hair chairs were perfect for our group, ensuring everyone had a relaxing and enjoyable getting-ready experience.

We also have to give a shout-out to Madison, who was an absolute dream to work with. She was always incredibly quick to respond to our emails and provided invaluable insight during our on-site planning meeting. Her expertise and helpfulness made the entire planning process so much smoother.

If you're looking for a beautiful, flexible venue that allows you to truly make your wedding your own, then look no further than Burlington. We can't recommend it highly enough!
