Best wedding ever

Everything about our wedding was absolutely perfect. The initial planning and meetings with Brooke were always fun and efficient. You can tell that Brooke really cares and listened to our wedding vision. She promptly responded to all our emails and was very organized in the planning process. Brooke really knows all the ins/outs of Chandler Hill as she got married at this venue as well. All of her recommendations were spot on! Unfortunately, she was not able to be our day of coordinator but she left us in excellent hands with Emily.

The wedding day went off without any problems. Chandler Hill is an absolutely beautiful venue and their management/staff are top notch! Emily and her team set up all of our wedding decorations (and there were a lot) and really brought our wedding vision to life. The communication throughout the night was excellent which allowed us to relax and really take in our special day. The wait staff and bartenders were on point! Our large wedding kept them busy but they were able to stay on top of drinks and everything. Definitely recommend getting the signature cocktail package, it was a crowd pleaser! We had so much fun and will never forget this perfect day. Chandler Hill and their staff are such a blessing. We highly recommend this venue for all your wedding needs. They are the complete package. Chandler Hill Vineyards will always have a special place in our hearts. Thanks again everyone! : )

A wedding dream come true!!

We had the most incredible experience with Chandler Hill Vineyards as our rehearsal dinner and wedding venue space! It was truly a wedding dream come true! Megan, Ally, and their team worked incredibly hard to make our wedding events come to life and executed them beautifully! They made planning a destination wedding through a pandemic a breeze. All of the special touches through the day elevated our experience and surpassed our expectations. The rehearsal dinner in the barrel room was gorgeous and the bbq buffet was incredible. The bridal and groomsmen suites were comfortable and stocked with food and drinks, a perfect space to get ready and take photos. The champagne wall and classic getaway car were elegant touches to our ceremony and reception. Everything looked gorgeous and the food was delicious. Our wedding vision was elevated with the fireworks that wowed all of our guests. We received so many compliments! Chandler Hill’s amazing staff allowed us to feel relaxed and comfortable so we could focus on the most important element of the day, our love and sharing it with our loved ones. Our vision was very much focused on a feeling of love and fun and Chandler Hill was the perfect venue to make that feeling come to life. We are so grateful that we were able to make memories that will last forever.

Highly Recommend!

Chandler Hill was an amazing venue. It was so beautiful, with the outdoor ceremony on the deck. Pictures and first look in the vineyards were just beautiful. The staff here (Megan the wedding coordinator especially) was fantastic in helping us plan a wedding and then reschedule it due to COVID. Several of our guests commented on the food, saying it was some of the best wedding food they had had! There are bride a groom suites upstairs for some privacy throughout the day, and where the wedding party can put their belongings. Before the wedding, they had a tasting even where we got to see how the venue would be set up for a wedding and had a florist there who had made centerpieces so you could see some examples and get inspiration. The wedding coordinator, Megan, walked us through the whole day and made sure the ceremony went off without a hitch. Had it been raining, we would have done the ceremony inside by the fireplace and I know this would have been beautiful too. We felt like we had plenty of time for a first look and photos before, so we could fully enjoy the reception. We also did the Champaign wall - which was a huge hit.
