Chateau on the River, Magical

I just had my wedding at the Chateau and I was not disappointed! We invited 184 guests, and the hall capacity is 190. We ended up with 150 guests total, and had plenty of room! This hall is a gem. They have most things already on site, which is a big part of the planning process. The food is incredible. We even had room for a photobooth, which our guests loved. The team at the Chateau is friendly, and can take on any request you may have, and I had a lot! Our day went without a hitch, and I know it's because the event staff had everything under control. It was the best day of my life, and I am truly glad I chose the Chateau as my wedding venue.

I do not even have enough words to describe how absolutely happy I am with the Chateau! From the time that my husband and I booked our venue up until the day of our wedding the staff was amazing! I cannot thank Lana, Jerry, and Amber as well as the wait staff that took care of us the day of the wedding. I would recommend The Chateau to anyone who is looking to have a completely flawless ceremony and reception at Elizabeth Park. They are very responsive to emails/ phone calls and they help guide you along the way of your planning process! Everything, including the food and bar, was beyond expectations and I cannot thank the staff of Kosch Catering enough for helping make our dream wedding possible! Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!

This venue was absolutely gorgeous and perfect for my 120 person wedding! They were so helpful and accommodating and I am still getting rave reviews on the food. This venue has such a comfortable and homey feel that I could not have chosen a better place. They have plans and backup plans for rain, power outages, you name it so when it stormed on my wedding day I knew I didn't have to worry about a single thing. I would recommend them to anyone!!
