The venue was absolutely beautiful. Neysa Crist was so helpful and quick to respond to any questions that I had. I was a "do-it-yourself" bride and planned on decorating the reception and ceremony area, but she and her staff took care of almost everything so I could relax. The intimate wedding package was very affordable, the food was good, and the service was incredible! I couldn't be happier!

We only had to visit one venue. I knew after walking through the atrium that was where I wanted to get married. The ceiling of windows gives you the lighting and effect of being outdoors without the weather stressor. This is a beautiful venue and there are countless reasons why so many couples choose Chateau Elan as their venue, go visit and you'll see why we did too.

Our wedding coordinator was Maureen and she was absolutely amazing. She was fast about returning calls. Met with us a number of times. She was great about helping us schedule tastings and things of that nature around our schedules. She is so kind it made it easy to ask for her help and favors. She never acted like we were asking too much or bothering her. My mom even had her number so she could call and ask questions. We didn't try to negotiate at all, I wish we had. It was a little expensive, but you don't have any extra costs at all, like linens or silver. They even provide centerpieces. I was happy with our wedding day. It was perfect and Chateau Elan and Maureen's experience had a lot to do with that.

Perfect Venue - Great Service

My husband and I were supposed to be married on May 2, 2020, but then the coronavirus started spreading. We decided to postpone to July 4, 2020. Ruth and Sherry were fantastic to work with in the date change and making sure everything ran smoothly. The day of the wedding they blocked off the ceremony to make sure the other hotel guests not apart of the wedding weren’t passing through. It was such a big help! The venue was so awesome and the renovations are stunning it was so complicated to pick place for pictures. For the coronavirus they had arrows directing people which way to go into and out of the lobby. The doors that had pull open option had hand sanitizer at the bottom. They had a self- temperature taking machine at the entrance and they required all employees to have masks on.

Best wedding decision made! Venue, hotel, winery, food & service was perfection!

I am an out of town bride and fell in love with Chateau Elan during a visit a year before our wedding. I knew I HAD to get married there after seeing a wedding take place on the Matisse Lawn (where I got married). The venue is not only beautiful (the woods, vineyard, rose garden, etc.) but the staff is ABSOLUTELY amazing. Shakila Marshall, Associate Director of Catering, was in charge of our wedding and she was FANTASTIC! Not only is she efficient, detailed, and willing to go the extra mile to make her bride and groom have the wedding of their dreams, but she is kind and helped me throughout the wedding process. She walked me to the aisle! Something I will always cherish. The food was amazing! Steak and lobster all the way! Definitely add a late night snack! So yummy and your guests will love! Also, the entire staff is fantastic. They help so much with the room blocks (thanks Angelic Herndon and Kevin at the front desk) and also I held my Rehearsal Welcome Reception at Sarazen's Bar and Grille (thanks Shannon Holizna and Chef Ron!!). I loved our welcome reception so much! We had amazing food and had our favorite pictures and music going at the Grille. It was so memorable! Our guests from FL, CA, and LA cannot wait to go back to Chateau Elan! Look forward to seeing the whole staff again soon! Thanks always from the bottom of our hearts!

It was beautiful

This was the first place I went and it was amazing. The atrium was where the ceremony was held and the elan ballroom was where the reception took place. The decor was just what I wanted the food tasted great and I felt it was just what I wanted.

I am a wedding day planner and have worked with Chateau Elan brides for several years now! Chateau Elan Wedding Staff is amazing in what they do! They really care to ensure that their brides and families have a most memorable experience. As a planner, we definitely team up with one of the great catering managers, and work hand in hand to ensure that everything is taken care of to meet and exceed our brides vision and expectations. Working with Dawn Tibbles, Jessica Strickland and Hannah Cassidy is just a wonderful experience from our side. We love the passion they also share with for their brides and the amazing staff at Chateau Elan is definitely one of a kind, starting from the valet concierges! We are always greeted with such a wonderful smile! The Food, outstanding! We hear so many great compliments from the Couples and their guests that the food and service is excellent. Highly Recommended Venue for a wedding and many other occasions!

I had the MOST amazing experience with Chateau Elan for my wedding in October. We had our first site visit with Dawn and we knew this was where we wanted to get married. We then worked closely with Aubree, who was absolutely fantastic! She was so quick to respond and was there every step of the way. Everyone at Chateau was so accommodating and organized and made our day go so smoothly. My only regret is that it's over!
