Most Accommodating Team

My husband and I decided on Highlands not only because it had a gorgeous aesthetic, great price, and near our favorite town Cold Spring, but because Ivan and his team was extremely accommodating to all the changes I wanted to do. I decided to get married in the ball room, instead of outside or the solarium, I wanted a late night snack instead of a ton of apps, and I wanted to change the timeline a little. They went above and beyond! They also allow open flame, and I had a TON of candles which made my whole wedding. Everyone I talked to said that it was the most gorg venue they have been to. The only one thing to consider is where to take pictures, they have golf sometimes going on during the wedding, so you cant have access to the whole grounds. But we were able to use the barn-area and the pictures were perfect (we also didnt do a first look so we had to do picture on the grounds). Everything went off without a hitch. Ivan is amazing and his team is amazing. They packed everything up and had it ready to be picked up in the morning - SUPER easy and accommodating. It was nice to not worry about my venue, and they worked great with my vendors needs as well. Can't recommend enough!

Amazing venue for great price!

Where to start? Highlands Country Club takes your breathe away the minute you pull in. The space has so much charm and is very versatile. We were unable to take advantage of the gorgeous grounds on our wedding day because it rained all day long but Ivan and his team made everything work and we forgot how much we wanted to use the outdoor space. When I tell people everything that was included in our price -- food, booze, setup, catering, cocktail hour and our wedding cake -- they are shocked. When something is that affordable, a couple may wonder -- so what's the catch? But there wasn't. The food was impeccable and the room transformed into our wedding vision seamlessly. The wait staff was incredibly friendly and the bartenders were *very* generous in their pours. The main ballroom accommodates about 120 guests, so if your wedding is bigger, just know that you'll have some guests in the side room called the Solarium. We didn't mind this but a few of our guests did, so think hard about who you'll be putting in that room. Would recommend this venue to anyone looking to have a quaint, rustic and above all, romantic wedding venue.

We had a wonderful experience working with Bridget Bell and truly had a unforgettable wedding! The venue was beautiful, elegant and timeless. We received a lot of positive compliments on the service and the quality of food! Many guests said it was the best food they had at a wedding! One guest said it was the best steak he has ever had! Bridget helped make our day perfect and appear to make everything run smoothly! She made sure everything was as we envisioned it! Very detail ordinated and really listened on how it we wanted everything to look! It was truly perfect!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
