Crabtree's Kittle House Restaurant and Inn

Do yourself a favor and have your wedding at the Kittle House. My wedding was absolutely perfect and that is all thanks to Kim and the incredible staff. Kim is the event planner and since my first email she has been so enthusiastic, professional, resourceful and kind. I legitimately would not have been able to do it without her. We planned the wedding in just over two months and Kim was there every step of the way making sure no detail was forgotten. She made everything so easy and seamless. Including on my wedding day when I forgot to have someone pick up the cake. I came into the reception and it was sitting there. She had realized on her own and took care of it without me even knowing! When it came time for the wedding, each person on the staff made me and all of my guests feel like royalty. They are so kind and bent over backwards to make sure everyone was enjoying themselves. The service is extraordinary. The venue itself is also beautiful and what drew us in in the first place. Build in the early 1700's, it has such a cozy, rustic but chic vibe. The owners have maintained it beautifully and it offers the best of old and new. There are so many nooks that are so interesting. They have the beautiful gardens, the glass ballroom, the private dinning room, the cozy bar with a big stone fireplace and the wine cellar. The best part was we were all able to stay the night in their guest rooms and wake up overlooking the snow covered hills. Finally, the food there is incredible. Most times you go to a wedding and the good is just meh, every single person at our wedding could not get over how great the food was. The chef is brilliant and super responsive to the menu you would like to create for your wedding. Anyone of these things, the food, venue space, staff, Kim would be enough to make me book my wedding there all over again but it really does have the best of it all. We can't wait to plan our next party there!

My daughter had two weddings (to the same husband) over the last year at Crabtree's Kittle House!

The larger wedding planned for 2020 had to be postponed due to covid but my daughter and her husband wanted to be married on their original date. The Kittle House's amazing event coordinator, Kimberly helped me plan a wonderfully memorable micro-wedding for my daughter, her husband, and our immediate family on that day. Because this was a one-off event during an uncertain time, every detail had to be thought out – and Kimberly was there with me each step of the way always focused on the positives. We ended up having a lovely wedding ceremony in the beautiful upstairs garden (before the restaurant’s lunch service began) followed by a private luncheon in the Ivy Hill Room. The food and service were wonderful throughout the day. Although it was not the wedding that we initially planned, it was a beautiful day that we will all remember with great joy.

This year we were fortunate to be able to host a larger celebration at the Kittle House. Once again, Kimberly was fantastic in helping me to plan and organize every last detail the event including dealing with some moving targets due to covid. Any extra requests I had were handled with no issue. She also coordinated the kid's after-party which was held in the Tap Room at the Kittle House. Throughout the last two years planning two weddings, Kimberly has been an incredibly positive, accessible, and enthusiastic planning partner who has the ability to focus on the big picture and the small details all at once.

On the day of the wedding, my husband and I felt confident that Kimberly, Leo (the maitre d) and the rest of the Kittle House staff had everything covered so we were able to relax and truly enjoy the event. Our trust was well placed. The entire event seemed to flow seamlessly – which I know does not happen by accident. We have already received many compliments on the venue, the food, and the service at the Kittle House.

The evening after the wedding my husband and I, along with some other family and guests, spent the night at the Inn which was lovely.

We look forward to coming back to the Kittle House for many future dinners, we would absolutely hold events there should the occasion arise, and we will certainly recommend Crabtree’s Kittle House without hesitation to friends and family looking for a venue to hold a reception.
