So it began, in November when Kurt and I needed a venue for our wedding in May! Lizette worked hard to find us a last minute spot - life changing

Please, please book here!
Lizette is so professional, understanding, and encouraging.
Deerfield provided the BULK of what you need; food and open bar, and many more included and the price is more than fair.
Day of coordinator is a true professional and effective.
The bridal attendants are super sweet.
I highly recommend this Venue.

Deerfield went above and beyond

We were married at Deerfield in 2/24 and cannot recommend enough! They were professional, communicative, and well priced. The room and grounds are beautiful with ample locations for photos. Our day went so smoothly and it was 100% due to the Deerfield staff. I would not look any further!

Amazing experience!

From start to finish, my experience with Deerfield was amazing. Deerfield is a beautiful venue and has so much to offer depending on your vision, but it’s also customizable and you can bring things in you may want! Lizette was always super responsive and very helpful via email. My day of coordinator Ryan was amazing at handling everything and bringing our vision to life. Truly could not recommend this venue and team more. All of our guests complimented the food, service, and atmosphere. Thank you guys!!

I love photographing weddings at Deerfield! They have one of the prettiest outdoor spots in their pine grove for a perfect summer wedding.
