I would give more than 5 stars if I could!

If you are considering Chestnut Ridge for your wedding (or event) - go ahead and request that contract! I worked in the wedding industry for ~15 years in varying capacities and to say that they exceeded my expectations in an understatement! The team that works for CR is amazing and they were incredibly prompt with their responses to my many questions. Not only was the planning process seamless and enjoyable, our guests were also blown away by the property, the views, and the teams response throughout our reception.
I also cannot praise Emily enough - we hired her as our venue coordinator and we ADORED every interaction with her from our site visit to our wedding day. My family who took home all of our personal items after the reception sang the highest praises of Emily and the CR team at how organized and quick they were to help with collecting items post the reception.
I said it in the beginning of the review and will say it again - if you are considering Chestnut Ridge for your event - ASK FOR THE CONTRACT IMMEDIATELY!!!! :)

Stunning, seamless, amazing group of people to work with for such an important day

This venue was EVERYTHING. Besides the stunning views, long farmhouse tables, the fireplace and everything little detail they put for this venue- what truly makes it the best is their team. I had the wedding planner + venue package + opted for the decor closet first we had a different planner but she ended up leaving and there was NO worry at all once we got assigned with Whitney. She was freaking awesome: always willing to answer all my random questions and truly made it a worry free day. Besides just Whitney, there was also the Bar Manager and she was also lovely to work with & always super helpful. Lastly, with this venue they have worked with so many vendors that it was nice that my caterer, DJ, Metro Wines and florist have all worked with Chestnut Ridge’s team that everything was seamless. All my guest had nothing but praises about this venue. Thank you guys so much!

Perfect Venue

Our daughter wanted a NC mountain wedding, but not a rustic wedding. Chestnut Ridge was perfect. The setting, nestled in the Blue Ridge mountains, is stunning, and the buildings (ceremony pavilion and reception hall) are beautiful and well-planned. Owner, Taylor, and our planner, Emily, were kind, patient, and professional as we planned from a far. (the bride lives in TX and we, bride’s parents, live in Utah) Our daughter’s wedding at Chestnut Ridge was exactly what she had dreamed of. HIGHLY recommend.
