Such a beautiful wedding venue!
I picked the Donnelly House for my delayed wedding reception, and I can not say enough great things about this venue! Karl was great from the first time we met. He was patient and responsive as we went through the date changing process. And he was always available when I wanted to come back and walk around the venue with different vendors and parents. On the day of the reception, there were loads of things that I didn't think about. The Donnelley House thought of all those things and took care of them so that I could have a stress free day. After the day was over, I could not think of one thing that could have gone better, thanks to the Donnelly House! Thank you for making our day so perfect!

Thank you to Carl and his staff for making our wedding day the best day of our life’s! Everything about the historic venue made our day so special. Highly recommend the Donnelly House! To the this day our guest still say it was the best wedding ever! Couldn’t have had our wedding at any other venue.
