The most Beautiful Day we could ask for

Our experience was wonderful!! Chanteclaire truly made all our dreams come true. Which was a tall order in the mist of the pandemic this year . They were so accommodating with moving our date and making sure we followed all Covid guidelines. The day went off without a hitch and we couldn’t have been happier !

The wedding venue of our DREAMS!!!

We JUST got married at Chanteclaire Farm last weekend and I couldn't WAIT to write an epic review while everything is still fresh in our memory. I don't even have words to describe how LUCKY we were to find such a gem of a wedding venue, which is really more of an all-weekend experience. I have worked in the wedding industry so I was certain that my search to find a micro-destination venue (meaning most of our guests could drive/travel within a couple hours of home), that is also all-inclusive, plus a venue we could stay on the grounds the entire weekend, would be pretty much impossible to find. I mean, venues like this simply don't exist in my head. We toured close to 6 venues around Maryland and most of them checked many boxes on our wish-list, but CF was truly the one and only one that checked ALL of our boxes and then some.

If you are worried about letting the venue hold the responsibility of almost ALL of your vendors (rehearsal dinner, catering, cake, florals, DJ, furniture, linens, service staff, bartenders, day-of coordination, overnight accommodations for up to 20 people, after-party, etc.) let your worries GO and trust that CF has it all under control. And not only do they take care of EVERYTHING during your whole weekend stay, they do it with such ease, precision, attention to detail, and they sure make the bride, groom and their families can truly relax and spend quality time together during such an important weekend. How amazing is it that once you arrive to the farm for the weekend, you don't have to leave ever if you don't want to: the farmhouse and cabin are just steps away from the ceremony space and reception venue. The after-party bonfire is also just steps from where you will blissfully lay your head after an incredible wedding after filling your already-full belly with late-night snacks like homemade warm pizza rolls, soft pretzels and campfire smores. I cannot say enough about the owner Leigh and her amazing and talented team - she is SO thorough and meticulous about ensuring your wedding details come to life and that the day-of timeline runs efficiently and smoothly, and it's because she cares SO much about ensuring you are happy with every decision of the whole weekend. Not once during the whole weekend did we feel confused or left-out of any details that are important in making your wedding day run smoothly.

I am a type-A person who wanted control of details like our music playlists - from the moment guests arrived, to cocktail hour music, dance floor music, etc. and Leigh and the DJ team let me have full-reign and there were NO issues at all the entire day. The FOOOOOOD - oh my gosh, you cannot go wrong with ANYTHING on the menu (the tasting event is an absolute must-attend event) - but the short ribs and sage-stuffed chicken with warm fruit compote were incredibly delicious. We had SO many people come up to us saying it was the best wedding food they've ever had. We also asked Leigh if we could do a pie bar for dessert rather than cake - and the pies were simply to die for. We requested a cigar bar for the reception and we provided the cigars and CF provided the rest - which was a HUGE hit. Every single request to make the little details that mattered to us about our wedding day count, were honored and celebrated by Leigh and her team. I could go on and on about Chanteclaire Farm and all of its beauty and amazingness (the cocktail hour parlor lounge and the silo bar themselves are simply show-stoppers - we had SO many people say they wished they knew about this venue for their own wedding. I will end this review by saying - TRUST everything that Leigh and her Chanteclaire Farm team members can do for your big day, or wedding weekend rather - and you will have the most relaxing and the most beautiful, incredible wedding weekend. BOOK your wedding weekend at CF and you WILL not regret it!!!!

Best. Day. Ever.

A wedding at Chanteclaire is more than a few hour rental at a venue with your family and friends. It is a weekend long celebration with vendors who care about you and your guests from the minute you arrive. We loved our wedding experience at Chanteclaire, especially during the pandemic, but did not realize just how much this very capable and experienced team did to make the wedding day so perfect. The team at Chanteclaire goes above and beyond to make sure you are able to envision your perfect day through your time planning together, your tasting, and at the rehearsal the night before. There was absolutely no stress (besides COVID) while planning. Through what was supposed to be stressful, Leigh and Haleigh made every minute fun. Two years later, we just planned my sister's wedding and that is when we realized just all that Leigh and Haleigh did to make the wedding at Chanteclaire so perfect! Their recommendations based on their vast experience contribute to a flawless wedding day/week-end. They are kind and thoughtful and so very helpful! I also have to shoutout the most incredible kitchen team. They did a wonderful job preparing our AMAZING food, helping with dietary restrictions, and providing us the BEST wedding cake we have ever eaten. To end our wonderful day, we were able to host an after party bon-fire with snacks and drinks, and stay on the property in a large house and cabin. The memories that we have from our amazing day will truly last forever. I can't thank the Chanteclaire team enough for everything they did to make our day perfect. I highly recommend Chanteclaire!

Not enough stars!

There aren’t enough stars to rate how much I love this vendor! The surprised look people get when I say I’m not stressed wedding planning is all thanks to Haleigh & the staff at Chanteclaire Farm! From taking care of behind the scenes wedding planning, booking the DJ & florist, the meal & cake selection, & anything else you need, I highly recommend!!

Seriously Perfect!

Our wedding was a fairytale! Haliegh (day-of coordinator and wedding planner) was attentive and made our whole day flawless and so easy, she seriously was amazing. The location was just perfect, we could not have seriously asked for a better venue that's all-inclusive!

Chanteclaire Farm is a dream wedding venue. Our day was absolutely perfect. I'd have my wedding there again in a heartbeat.
I'd probably describe myself as a hands-off bride. I looked at a few similar venues, but I would have to plan everything. I didn't want to plan decorations or choose a caterer. And I didn't want to be chasing birds out of the barn rafters!
Chanteclaire...WOW! From decorating, catering, timing, etc, the staff at Chanteclaire does it all. The barn is so beautifully decorated that I barely did anything (which is exactly what I wanted). But if you want to decorate, they have decorations from previous weddings you're welcome to use.
The food is delicious and the variety is amazing. Cake, cookies, pie, donuts. I was a gluten free bride and they were very accommodating. Gluten free cake, yum! After years of hosting awesome weddings, they have timing down to a science. They kept our day moving smoothly. The staff is just amazing.
This was a destination wedding for us. I've been to Deep Creek dozens of times, but we didn't know any vendors in the area. They were able to provide me with a list of people they work with and trust, so I didn't even have to think about finding other vendors.
My guests were blown away. I had so many compliments and people had a BLAST. I've never seen so many people on the dance floor at a wedding, and I'm still getting compliments a few months later.
I love Chanteclaire. I would recommend them to anyone.
Thanks for an amazing experience, Chanteclaire team!

I was married at Chanteclaire Farm July 30th, 2016 and it was by far the best day of my life! My girls and I stayed in the farmhouse and the guys stayed in the cabin (both available for rent on property). To be able to rent both the farmhouse and the cabin was such a stress reliever and couldn't have been more accommodating for my vendors to come in for hair/makeup. The cabin was great for the guys and had such a masculine feel.

We also held our rehearsal dinner at the farm Friday before the wedding and if I could offer one word of advice it would be to have your rehearsal there! The food is AMAZING! We had BBQ Night and everyone raved about the pies and Mac and Cheese. Leigh, the owner of Chanteclaire went through every motion of the ceremony with us before dinner. Everything and I mean EVERYTHING was covered right down to how you properly hold your escorts arm. I felt confident my ceremony would be organized and smooth. Zero worries... Zero work on my end... All I had to do was show up in my white dress!

Our wedding day was very rainy, the kind of rain that pounds on the roof ....so you can't ignore it..... I truly believe it was God and Chanteclaire magic that let our outside ceremony go off without a hitch. Leigh and her team kept an eye on the radar and we were able to dry off the chairs and get everyone seated and start the ceremony. The rain started again right as we said I DO. Amazing..... Nothing short of it. If it wasn't for Leigh and her team the day could have been ruined by the rain but they kept my spirits high (even coming to visit me in the farmhouse).

Everyone could not stop talking about the food..... The cake ..... The EXPERIENCE! Chanteclaire is a very special place and I hold it very close to my heart. I couldn't imagine being married anywhere else. Leigh, you are one of a kind and your staff is beyond fabulous.

Thank you!!!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
