Wonderful wedding experience!

Jennifer and the entire Race Brook Country Club team were an absolute pleasure to work with from beginning to end. All of our guests complimented the service, food, and beauty of the venue. Jennifer was responsive throughout the planning process and could not have done a better job. She was patient, creative, and overall made our day run so smoothly. If I could give 100 stars I would!

Fantastic and beautiful

We had my niece's sweet 16 here. As soon as we saw the venue we knew it had to be at Racebrook. The venue is beautiful, has a wrap around porch, and beautiful outside grounds perfect for pictures. Jennifer and the staff were amazing and made sure everything was perfect. The food was amazing and they even made a custom blueberry punch to go with our theme. Family and friends haven't stopped raving about the party and how much everyone had such a good time. We will definitely use this venue again for any special occasion or milestone in the future.

Wouldn’t want to get married anywhere else!

There wasn’t a single thing we didn’t love about Racebrook, venue size, dance floor size, food, background for pictures, staff, wedding coordinator, everything top to bottom was amazing, our guests still haven’t stopped raving about how good of a time they had. 10/10 recommend.

We got married at Racebrook at the end of May. We feel in love with the venue as soon as we first visited - the wraparound porch overlooking the golf course was beautiful! We captured some amazing pictures outside on the course and in the garden, and the ceremony spot was really pretty. It was also a great plus that there was a bridal suite!

Working with Robin was so easy and comfortable. She was very accommodating, and was willing to work with us to make sure we could get everything that we wanted on the day of the wedding. The staff was fabulous to work with - very attentive and polite. And the food was delicious! We are still having people about the hor d'oeuvres. We loved the flow that the venue had to offer to our guests with cocktail hour on the porch. We would highly recommend Racebrook!

We had our Ceremony and Reception at Race Brook Country Club. The venue itself is a gorgeous site (especially at sunset & in the Fall) and the golf course offered plenty of places for beautiful pictures! They have a very large bridal suite and a large room for the groom/groomsmen to get ready in.

Our Wedding was an amazing time! Robin Grande was easy to work with and very friendly and accommodating to our requests. The waitstaff was very attentive to us and all of our guests; our guests commented on the great service the next morning. The food was outstanding, from the hors d'oeuvres to the main entrees! The chef was great, he even made an extra serving of the mini beef wellingtons for me as they ran out during the cocktail hour. Jocelyn (the bridal attendant) was also easy to work with and always available - plus always had drink for us!
