BOOK THEM for the BEST wedding experience!

We truly could not have chosen a more perfect wedding venue! From the moment we arrived, every single detail was absolutely beautiful and thoughtfully taken care of. The decorations, setup, and overall atmosphere exceeded every expectation we had. Everything was flawless.

What made the experience even more special was our coordinator, Madalyn. She went above and beyond the entire day and truly felt like my best friend by the end of it. She made everything stress-free, kept everything running smoothly, and cared so deeply about making our day perfect. I honestly cannot thank her enough for everything she did for us.

Every staff member we encountered was so kind, welcoming, fun, and genuinely excited for us. Even the bartender joined in on the fun and was out on the dance floor celebrating with us! You can truly tell everyone there loves what they do.

Our wedding day was everything we dreamed of and more, and we are forever grateful to this amazing venue and staff for making it so unforgettable.

Stop scrolling- Book this venue!!!

When my original venue called 4 months out and said their chapel had issues, and I couldn't get married there, I was TERRIFIED! As a very type A bride, I was so scared I wouldn't be able to find a place that could match my vision. I got on the phone with Kristina at the Abbey, and she quickly put my mind at ease! I call her an angel because that is truly what she was throughout the entire process!!! She ended up being our coordinator, and the entire team made our day PERFECT! The getting-ready spaces are stunning, the acoustics in the chapel are unmatched, and the level of flexibility for using the space, outside caterers, etc. is unlike anything else I've found. I would highly recommend this venue to anyone!!!! I will stop rambling now, but if you're sick of scrolling through venues like I was, look no further than the Abbey! Thank you, Abbey team, for making my dream come true!

Seamless and Beautiful Christmas Wedding

We could not be happier with how our wedding turned out at The Abbey. From touring the property with Lori, to working on decorations with Michelle, to planning the day-of details with Jacqui, the entire experience was seamless. The Abbey staff brought our magical Christmas wedding vision to life, and we are so grateful.
We also chose to rent the house on the property for the weekend, which made our time with friends and family even more special. The décor package was an absolute game-changer—our decorations, florals, and every little detail were completely taken care of, making the entire process effortless.
We cannot recommend this venue enough!

Wonderful Venue and Staff!

Our experience at The Abbey Salisbury was wonderful from start to finish. The tour of the venue with Kristina was very thorough, they were responsive to any questions during the planning process, and the staff (especially Jacqui) were amazing on the wedding day to help with setup and making sure everything ran smoothly! I would 10/10 recommend this venue!!

Stunning venue with exceptional staff

Everything about our experience at The Abbey was amazing! Michelle and Jacqui, and the rest of the team made sure that every single detail was taken care of and went above and beyond to ensure that the day ran smoothly. The decor was absolutely stunning and Jacqui made sure we were on schedule the entire day. Our family, friends, and even guests were all highly impressed as well. We had the weekend package and stayed on the property for the weekend, and the annex was incredibly clean and spacious, stocked with toiletries, coffee, and other necessities! Even the beds were comfy, and felt (I kid you not) like sleeping on a cloud!

Stress Free Perfect Wedding Day!

Choosing this venue was the BEST decision we made! Leading up to the big day all communication was prompt and on point. They are completely transparent with their pricing and don’t try to nickel and dime you with hidden costs, like some venues. Lori was our “day of” coordinator and she was nothing short of amazing! In fact, all of the staff were wonderful! They took care of everything. One week before the wedding, Lori reached out to all of our vendors to make sure they knew when and where to arrive etc. They provided and setup all the decor. We had a few additions to the decor that they happily took care of setting up as well as packing up for us at the end of the night. Lori regularly checked in with me throughout the day and took care of all my last-minute needs and requests. The staff all had earpieces so they could be in constant communication with one another. The entire day was perfect! This place is so amazing that even our videographer mentioned that he was impressed by the staff’s efficiency and professionalism. Trust me, this place is beautiful, and you can’t beat the price/value for your money. One more thing, we had the premium coffee bar add-on which was a huge hit. It was the best latte I’ve ever had!

Best Day Ever

My husband and I got married at The Abbey on Friday, 9/22/23. My coordinator, Jacqui and the owner, Lori were such a pleasure to work with. I live an hour away and they were so accommodating with my crazy schedule. They made everything so easy from start to finish. The day went off without a hitch thanks to every single staff member. The space was beautiful and I so appreciate the effort that went into making my detailed vision come alive. We had a small, intimate wedding of about 50 so the smaller reception space was perfect for us. The design of the space from the wood accent walls to the beautiful concrete floors and hanging lights was exactly what we were looking for. The landscaping outside was the perfect backdrop to our pictures. We had a great experience, I wouldn't change a thing.

We also stayed that night at the on-site Airbnb which was an absolute dream and was perfect for accommodating our out of town guests. It was so clean and beautifully decorated. Choosing this venue was one of our best decisions!

Best Decision We Made

My husband and I were married at The Abbey earlier this month, and we had an amazing experience! The venue is gorgeous, and the included amenities are amazing. Everything from the bridal suite to the reception area was absolutely stunning. The staff was amazing - very attentive! The venue coordinator changed about halfway through our process, but Jacqui, the new coordinator, didn’t miss a beat. Truly, she is the reason that our day went so well! Overall, prepare for a wonderful experience if you choose The Abbey. This is a decision you will not regret!
