Book Your Event at the Golf Club

My family and I are no strangers to hosting events at the National Golf Club (golf club). In 2016, my sister and her husband held their wedding reception at the golf club. In 2018, my husband and I held our wedding reception at the golf club. In 2024, my husband and I held our baby shower at the golf club.

When we first held an event at the golf club in 2016, we met Ms. Christine Kuhn. What an amazing person! Our family loves Ms. Christine so much. She is a light to be around. She is exceptionally helpful. She is a hard worker. She will do all that needs to be done to ensure that your event is the event of your dreams. It was working with Ms. Christine in 2016 and again in 2018 that made it a no-brainer to return to the golf club when we needed a venue for our baby shower in 2024.

We were able to work again with Ms. Christine. She was her usual amazing self and was always there to answer our questions and assist us in hosting the baby shower of our dreams. This go around, we also were introduced to Ms. Mimi. We were able to work with Ms. Mimi on the day of the baby shower and she was a blessing. She was so helpful, gave us amazing tips, and also made sure everything was flowing smoothly. Our day would not have gone as successfully as it did had Ms. Mimi not been there to assist.

While Ms. Christine and Ms. Mimi were a blessing, the staff at the golf club were amazing as well. There were about 75 - 85 guests at our shower and the staff worked so well. They were attentive to guests, they were proactive, and they were so pleasant. I have to give a shoutout to Raven, who really stepped up and was integral in executing the vision for our day, and Shika who was such a joy, and so helpful, both going above and beyond.

If you are considering hosting an event, I would really consider the National Golf Club if I were you. The place is newly renovated on the inside and looks amazing. The space is also very versatile. As mentioned, there were 75 - 85 guests at my baby shower but there were 200 guests at my wedding. We used the same space and it worked out perfectly. With many venues, you have to bring in tables chairs, tablecloths, and your own chef, therefore making an event task list even longer than it already is. With the golf club, the food is prepared by the on-staff chef at the golf club so we did not have to worry about finding a chef and bringing one in. (Also, the food at the golf club was divine. Our baby shower was brunch themed and we continue to get compliments about the food.) The tables, chairs, tablecloths, utensils, and drink-ware (not an exclusive list) were included in our package so again, one less thing to worry about bringing in.

Ultimately, I want to thank all of those at the golf club for having a hand in making our special days so extremely special. We will definitely be back for the next big event!

Incredible Location/Service and Value

The beautiful / picturesque grounds at the National Golf Club provided an amazing backdrop for our outdoor ceremony. And the indoor cocktail hour and reception were just as lovely. Everything was perfect from the beginning of our planning to the end of our reception. The service Christine Kuhn, Catering Director and the staff at the golf club was stellar. Planning wedding on a budget could have been hard, but working with Christine and her team, they made our dream wedding a reality.
We wholeheartedly recommend this venue!

I LOVE this place but more than anything...I LOVE Mrs. Christine! OMG when you speak with her...it's like you are her only client. She helps whenever and wherever. She makes herself available to you...even when you send a quick email..she calls to speak to you vs responding over email which let me know that she's about customer service. So many of my guest that have upcoming events said they will be looking into this venue as it's beautiful and the food is great!

On May 21, 2016, I had the wedding of my dreams and the National Golf Club played a MAJOR part in that. I worked very closely with Ms. Christine. My dad found the venue on the website and we were excited about how reasonable the price was. At the time, they had a special (50% off the venue). So we first fell in love with the price. But when we went to visit the golf club, we quickly fell in love with Ms. Christine. Ms. Christine has a sweet personality and a lets make it happen mentality. If we wanted it, she worked on making sure we got it. If she saw a need, she jumped in to take care of it (i.e. helping to setup the room, accommodating the vendors that wanted to look at the golf club). She made the process so effortless. The venue is beautiful! The day of the wedding, my guests raved about the chef’s cooking. The food is DELICIOUS and it is a good amount of food and a nice variety. I loved my experience at the National Golf Club!!!

Christine is the best Asset at the Golf Club! She was totally responsive and addressed all our needs. The chef was even responsive to our need to make the food spicier. The venue is very lovely with the French doors and the Golf course itself is a gorgeous backdrop for an outdoor wedding. We had an Awesome experience and the price was fair as well. No complaints!!! It was an Amazing Venue for our Wedding !!
