Absolutely Amazing!!!

Where to begin with Talega Golf Club… the venue is breathtaking, the staff is amazing, and Michael and Tommy are the best wedding coordinators you will ever work with. From the very beginning Michael is very responsive and helpful. He will walk you through every step of the wedding planning process, and responds right away with any questions you may have. Our wedding day went perfectly thanks to these two. They managed to keep the day stress free, and kept everything on schedule. Our family and friends raved about the venue and claimed it was the best wedding food they had ever eaten. The staff was so kind to our guests, and very accommodating to any special needs they had. Talega Golf Club, Michael, and Tommy will completely exceed all your wedding expectations, and you will not regret choosing this venue for your special day!

Best Decision Ever

My husband and I have the best day of our lives in Talega! All thanks to Michael and Tommy! They are both very professional, communicative, and responsive. To have our wedding in Talega is the best decision I made. The foods are absolutely delicious. All my guests gave so much compliments about the foods and overall service. We are very appreciate all the hard works to all the staffs. From beginning to the end, everything is very easy with Michael. He makes sure we don't have to worry too much since we do not have a coordinator. In addition, you don't have to spend extra money just because is during holiday weekend. Many other places charged you 20% more because the date you want to get married, but Talega make sure every day is equally important to the bride and groom. Thank you Michael and Tommy, and the rest of the staff in Talega!

My husband and I searched every possible venue in Orange County and were just about to change our plan and get married in Nashville because of costs when he thought to reach out to Talega (he had previously golfed there). Thank goodness he did! Once we met Michael and I saw the absolutely amazing price per guest and everything they included, we knew booking Talega was a NO BRAINER.
Michael and his assistant, Tommy, were incredible from start to finish. SO responsive, SO flexible and just SO perfect. Our guests even commented how professional and warm they were during the wedding. Any special requests or adjustments we had, they did - no questions. Most venues in Orange County don't allow you much flexibility in regards to outside vendors, but Talega couldn't be more accommodating.
Michael can act as your primary planner, or alongside a planner you hire separately. He's absolutely amazing, and really cares about each couple and their special day. If you're looking for the best deal in Orange County, PLEASE do yourself a favor and visit Talega. You won't be disappointed with the level of service, beautiful property, and amazing food...and best of all, you can have your dream wedding while staying in budget! Such a hidden gem!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
