The wedding of our dreams!

Wow, where to even begin! The moment my husband and I finished our tour of Mt. Woodson Castle, we knew this had to be our wedding venue. The castle itself is gorgeous and such a cool historical place to get married. The grounds are so well maintained--the oak trees, flowers and other natural foliage created such a beautiful and romantic environment for our outdoor spring wedding. It’s one of those places where if you wanted to, you could get away with very minimal decor and/or florals because the property has so much natural beauty just on its own.

The most appealing part of getting married here second to the actual location is the amazing team and resources that come with it! Mt. Woodson comes with a full service catering team and bar services (Personal Touch Dining), a day-of coordinator, organized rehearsal, venue manger support every step of the way with a production meeting to coordinate all the fine details, rentals, a room filled with complimentary decor you can use for your wedding day, lawn games for guests, etc. It was such an easy choice for someone like me who wanted choices and control over many aspects of my wedding, but appreciated how organized and painless Mt. Woodson made many aspects of the planning process by offering them in one place.

I would like to personally recognize Kelsey and Sophia (Mt. Woodson’s venue sales manager and event producer) for being so awesome and assisting me in planning this wedding via the multitude of emails/questions I sent their way! They were always prompt, kind, and extremely helpful. I never felt like I was being a nuisance and knowing I had an approachable team to reach out to was incredibly important to me. :-). I would also like to thank Kaitlyn for being the true MVP as my assigned day-of-coordinator and absolutely KILLING IT with her leadership, organizational skills, and attention to detail. She placed (and packed up!) all of my decor, organized basically every moment of the day, and made sure our wedding was as beautiful and perfect as we could have ever hoped for. You are a gem, Kaitlyn.

Perfection!

Our wedding couldn't have been more perfect! The venue was incredibly beautiful, and the personal touch dining team was simply amazing. They were so informative and helpful as we were planning everything and when the week of came, they were very communicative and responsive. On the day of our wedding, they took care of us, and everything! Everything went so smoothly and according to plan. The food was excellent! Thank you to all involved!

Loved Our Wedding at Mt. Woodson Castle

Our experience with this venue was amazing to say the least. We started off working with Peyton then we worked with Kelsey and Sophia who were incredible! They were very responsive and so so kind. They kept us up to date as we got closer to the wedding and answered any questions I had in a very timely manner. The venue was beautiful and the food was so tasty as well. My husband and I absolutely enjoyed our time at the venue and working with everyone. And our day-of coordinator Sam was the best hands down! She was on top of everything for us making sure the rehearsal went smooth, answered any questions we had, and always made sure we were good on our wedding day. I'm so thankful to have been able to work with everyone at Mt. Woodson and Personal Touch Dining. I wish I could do it all over again to relive our wedding day!!
