Wedding of our dreams!
Thank you so much Cheryl and John!
Highly recommend!
We are beyond thankful John and Cheryl let us use their beautiful venue. They were both so kind, genuine, and easy to communicate with! Whenever we had questions they were quick to answer. In addition they were very accommodating and made us feel right at home! Just a month before the wedding we had to add on another day for rental and they quickly answered and were able to accommodate that without hesitation which was a great relief! They made the wedding planning process extremely easy, and even gave us some recommendations for vendors and lent us some decorations and games to use!
The entire venue is beyond our dreams and as soon as we drove up to the mansion and saw the barn we knew this would be where we spend our special day.
The mansion is nothing short of spectacular with a perfect blend of both modern feel with its added history. Each room was filled with so much detail and every single person from our wedding venue who stayed said it was spectacular and beautiful, in complete awe of its beauty.
The barn is exactly what we dreamed of for a venue. The post and beams covered with lights gave us such a great atmosphere, it was both modern but a rustic feel and exactly what we pictured. The landscape was beautiful, clean, and had plenty of room for both an inside and outside feel! There was a beautiful outdoor fireplace where people could also enjoy cocktails and warm atmosphere!
We can’t thank John and Cheryl enough for letting us use this beautiful venue for our wedding weekend: from the mansion, to the barn and even the cottage, it was perfect. My husband and I will have the best memories from our wedding and our guests have come to us many times since the wedding to let us know how perfect of a location and Venue we chose. My husband and I highly recommend Chez Nous Venue for any reception need!
A Dream Wedding Venue with Charm, Elegance, and Warm Hospitality
The grounds are expansive and beautifully landscaped, offering multiple picture-perfect settings for our ceremony and photos. We especially loved hosting the cocktail hour on the stone patio with the cozy wood-burning fireplace, which added warmth and ambiance to the evening. Inside, the barn was elegantly appointed with chandeliers, wooden beams, and ample space for our guests to dine, dance, and celebrate into the night.
Our family and close friends stayed comfortably in the mansion's luxurious rooms, making it feel like a home away from home. John and Cheryl went above and beyond to ensure every detail was taken care of, helping us bring our dream wedding to life. We couldn’t recommend Chez Nous more highly for anyone looking to create lasting memories in a truly unique setting!
