Book them!!!


I can’t say enough about this amazing venue! My daughter‘s wedding was at La Massaria six days ago and we can’t stop raving about it! Gorgeous, beautifully taken care of, every little detail managed. On the day of the wedding, we had to do absolutely nothing! The amazing staff were so attentive and efficient and cared for us like family! We were able to bring in some of our own embellishments and at the end of the night they packed them up for us so we could continue the celebration without worrying. Flowers by Scott, which came with the package were magnificent! The food was delectable! Our ceremony was brought inside due to rain and it was so spectacular in the barn with the gorgeous stone walls and wood beams and lighting! We can’t say enough the people were so kind and gracious and caring. I’m hoping my other daughter will get married here as well! Book them!

A Dream Wedding Come True! Shawn and Michael 4-5-2025

From the moment we stepped into La Masseria, we knew it was the perfect place for our wedding. Every detail was beyond our expectations, and the staff went above and beyond to make our special day truly unforgettable.
The venue itself was breathtaking—beautifully decorated, impeccably maintained, and set up exactly as we had envisioned. The ambiance was magical, and our guests couldn’t stop raving about how stunning everything looked.
The team at La Masseria was simply outstanding. Thank you to Denise, Jennifer, Bella, Shannon and the entire team. They were professional, attentive, and genuinely cared about making our day stress-free and special. From the planning stages to the final send-off, they handled everything with grace and efficiency. Their attention to detail and seamless coordination made the entire experience feel effortless.
The food was another highlight! Every dish was delicious, beautifully presented, and served with excellence. Our guests were so impressed with the quality and variety of options. They even went above and beyond to make sure our daughter had buttered pasta and dino nuggets for their dinner! An extra added touch and example of the high quality of service!
We couldn’t have asked for a better venue or a more wonderful team to help bring our wedding vision to life. If you’re looking for a venue that combines elegance, top-tier service, and an unforgettable atmosphere, look no further than La Masseria! Thank you again Jennifer and Denise, you truly out did yourselves and made our event so special, we would not want it any other way!

10 out of 10!

My husband and I got married at La Massaria on 12.02.2023! From the second that we booked the venue the staff there had been so amazing. They were so responsive and helpful that it made everything with planning a wedding seem so simple.

They were the most attentive staff I have ever worked with. From the bridal suite, to the detail of the ceremony and reception, everything that day was absolutely perfect and magical and I 100% believe it is because the staff truly loves what they do.

My guests still tell my husband and I that we had the best vendors at a wedding they have ever seen. If you are looking for people who know how to do a wedding right, and make the process so easy, book with La Massaria! You will be over the moon that you did. We will be back for future events because we loved it so much!

Thank you doesn't do justice

When we began wedding planning, La Massaria was our first venue tour. We fell in love instantly. Being engaged for almost 2 years meant a lot of time in between signing the contract and our big day. During our whole planning process, Jennifer was outstanding. The whole team at La Massaria was accommodating, welcoming, friendly and made us feel at home.

Could not have picked a more perfect venue!

The team at La Massaria call was absolutely fantastic! We had been planning our wedding for about two years and the staff was responsive throughout the entire process. When it came down to the final few weeks before the wedding, Carly and her team made us feel so comfortable and excited for a big day. The team set up the venue for us and it was better than we could’ve ever imagined. They made everything so easy from dropping decorations off to picking them up the next day. The venue is stunning and was perfect for the rustic country club venue that we were looking for!

Best Venue and Day!

La Massaria was absolutely the best venue to have for our wedding. Our wedding was perfection from start to finish. Carly the on-site coordinator exceeded our expectations and went above and beyond to make sure it was absolutely perfect. From answering our countless emails throughout the planning process, to letting us come to see the venue as many times as we wanted, she truly was there whenever we needed her even before the day of. We loved working with her and will truly miss our time spent with our Bella Family! All of our guests raved about the staff and the food and overall experience. We cannot recommend them enough! You will truly feel at home when you choose La Massaria as your wedding venue! We would choose them over and over again!

Could Not Have Been Better!

Our wedding was wonderful, and the great folks at La Massaria are a big part of the reason why. Carly was our point person from booking to the day-of, and she was great to work with. She was one of the fastest and most consistent communicators we worked with throughout our two years of wedding planning. On the day-of we had 3 different attendants from the venue to help with any problems that came up and they were all lovely. Every staff member played a part in making the day special, especially Crystal on the wait staff. La Massaria is a beautiful space and they give you so much for what you pay. Cake and flowers are partially included, and the in-house catering was phenomenal. If we could do it all over again, we would come right back to La Massaria at Bella Vista.

Outstanding

We have zero complaints. 10/10. I didn’t even think twice about writing a review because they absolutely deserve it. Our special day was perfection. From the start to finish. Nothing went wrong. Carly the on-site coordinator exceeded our expectations and went above and beyond to make sure we got everything that we wanted even until the last day when a few things had to be changed. Autumn was our attendant for the day and we can not thank her enough for being so sweet and quick and was there for whatever we needed and was amazing! Everyone had a blast and was raving about the venue the entire day! We can not recommend then enough and hope everyone has just as great of an experience as we did! You will not be disappointed!

We could not have had a more perfect wedding at La Massaria! Carly the wedding planner and all the other staff were perfect. They set up our decor for us and made things look even more beautiful then we could have planned, made sure everything ran smoothly and thought of all the little details you forget about, the food was perfect, and every one of our guest raved about what an amazing time they had! We highly recommend having your wedding here! You won't find a better place! Will post better photos when we get them from our photographer!
