The Ballroom at Ellis Preserve

We truly cannot say enough wonderful things about The Ivy! From the moment we toured the venue to the last dance on our wedding night, every part of our experience exceeded our expectations.

The venue itself is absolutely stunning, and our guests are still talking about how beautiful everything was. The ballroom, cocktail hour space, and grounds created the perfect setting for our wedding. The food and service were exceptional, and everything throughout the evening was flawless.

A huge thank you to Jordan, our wedding coordinator, who was incredible from start to finish. Throughout the planning process, she was organized, responsive, and always willing to answer our questions. On the wedding day, she made everything feel effortless. Knowing she was there coordinating every detail allowed us to relax and truly enjoy every moment. She made us feel so cared for and ensured the entire day ran seamlessly.

We also cannot thank Mike, our maître d', enough. He brought our vision to life perfectly. Walking into our reception for the first time was such an unforgettable moment because every detail had been executed beautifully. Throughout the evening, Mike made sure everything stayed on schedule and that we, our families, and our guests were taken care of. His professionalism and attention to detail were truly outstanding.

The entire team at The Ivy worked together so seamlessly, and it was obvious how much they genuinely cared about making our wedding perfect. Every vendor commented on how wonderful it was to work there, and every guest had an amazing experience.

We recently got married at The Ivy at Ellis Preserve, and I truly couldn’t have asked for a more perfect wedding day! Everything was absolutely beautiful, from the ceremony to cocktail hour, the incredible food, and the reception. Every detail was perfect, and the entire day was everything we dreamed of and more.

A huge thank you to our wedding coordinators, Tina and Megan, and our Maître d’, Mike, for helping make our day so special. They were all amazing to work with and helped everything run so smoothly from beginning to end. We were able to relax, enjoy every moment, and truly take in our special day knowing we were in such good hands.

The venue was stunning, the food was incredible, and the reception was so much fun! Our guests had an amazing time, and we received so many compliments on how beautiful everything was. We will forever be grateful for the memories we made at The Ivy. If you’re looking for a wedding venue that will make your day feel truly magical, I cannot recommend The Ivy at Ellis Preserve enough!

There truly are not enough words to describe how incredible our experience was at The Ivy at Ellis Preserve. From the moment I first toured the venue to even a week after our wedding, the entire team went above and beyond to make our wedding everything we could have imagined and so much more.

I especially have to recognize our event coordinator, Jordan. From the very beginning, Jordan was absolutely incredible. She was there for me through every step of the planning process, from the days and weeks leading up to our wedding, all the way through the wedding day and even after. No matter what time of day it was, she was always there to answer a question, help me get an answer, calm my nerves, or make sure something was taken care of.

Jordan went far beyond what I ever could have expected from an event coordinator. She made sure all of our vendors were squared away leading up to the wedding, thought through details I never would have even considered, and made sure everything was exactly where it needed to be on our wedding day. Most importantly, she made me feel like I was never alone in the process. By the end, she genuinely felt like family.

The Ivy itself was the most perfect setting for our wedding. We had approximately 250 guests, and every single person was treated with incredible care and attention. The service from the entire staff was exceptional. The owners are so warm and down to earth, and you can truly tell that everyone there takes pride in creating an amazing experience for their couples and their guests.

And the FOOD! It was absolutely incredible from cocktail hour through dinner and dessert. Everything was hot, plentiful, beautifully presented, and delicious. Our guests could not stop talking about the food. We had multiple people tell us that they had never been to a wedding where the food was this good, with some even saying it was the best steak they have ever had at a wedding. That is something we will never forget!

Our guests are still talking about our wedding and telling us it was hands down one of the most amazing weddings they have ever attended. That means everything to us because creating an incredible experience for our family and friends was so important to us.

The amount of attention, care, and detail that went into our day was unbelievable. The Ivy at Ellis Preserve didn’t just provide us with a beautiful venue. They helped create an experience that we and our guests will remember forever.

If you are considering The Ivy for your wedding, BOOK IT. You will not find a more beautiful space, incredible food, attentive staff, or a more dedicated team. And if you are lucky enough to have Jordan as your coordinator, you are in the absolute best hands.

Jordan, thank you for being there for me through every question, every detail, every moment of stress, and ultimately the most incredible day of our lives. We genuinely could not have done it without you. You will always hold such a special place in our hearts. ❤️

We will forever be grateful to The Ivy at Ellis Preserve for giving us the most perfect wedding day. We would choose you all over and over again! 🤍

We truly cannot say enough amazing things about The Ivy at Ellis Preserve! We got married here on September 19, 2026, and from the moment we booked our wedding until the very last dance, everything was absolutely perfect.
The venue itself is breathtaking. Every detail, from the beautiful grounds to the gorgeous ballroom, created the most stunning backdrop for our wedding day. Our guests could not stop talking about how beautiful the venue was and how incredible the entire experience was.
What really made The Ivy so special, though, was the staff. They went above and beyond to make sure our day was everything we dreamed it would be.

Thank you, The Ivy, for giving us a wedding day that was even more beautiful and perfect than we could have imagined!

When I set out to plan our wedding, there were two things my husband and I knew we absolutely needed: a venue that had “character” all on its own, and food that was “top-notch” while still being allergy-friendly.

So, I logged onto Facebook and started joining every bridal group I could find. I was looking for something VERY SPECIFIC, a gem, a place that had everything I was envisioning. Honestly, I didn’t think it existed.

And then came The Ivy at Ellis Preserve by Finley Catering.

What I thought didn’t exist suddenly became a reality.

My husband and I visited The Ivy just one month after it opened, and we instantly fell in love. That was it. The search was over. Just as quickly as we fell in love with each other, we fell in love with the venue.

From start to finish, Meg was responsive, caring, attentive, and professional. She understood that my husband and I have serious food allergies and never made us feel like our needs were an inconvenience or an afterthought. Meg, our event coordinator, and her husband, Mike, our maître d, went above and beyond to make our wedding day incredibly special.

Most people say their wedding day “flashed before their eyes,” but for me, that was never the case. Every moment felt like my husband and I were spinning together inside a snow globe, dancing while the entire world settled around us. And I truly believe that feeling was possible because of how well the entire team took care of us.

The staff were INCREDIBLE. Every single person we encountered was kind, helpful, attentive, and professional.

It’s been just shy of three weeks since our wedding, and our guests are STILL raving about the cocktail hour and dinner. MANY of them have told us it was, by far, the best cocktail hour they have ever experienced. And the best part? We didn’t even select any of the food upgrades!

But what meant the most to my husband and me was that we didn’t just have to hear about how amazing the food was from our guests; we got to experience it ourselves.

Meg and Mike took our allergies seriously and went above and beyond to make modifications so we could safely enjoy our wedding meal alongside everyone else. They made us feel like our allergies didn’t make us “different.” We were able to sit down, eat, celebrate, and enjoy our reception just like every other couple. That meant EVERYTHING to us.

I cannot stop raving about Finley Catering and their newest venue, The Ivy at Ellis Preserve and clearly, neither can our guests!

Throughout the entire planning process, I talked endlessly about how beautiful the venue is. It is SO elegant and beautiful on its own that it truly doesn’t need much.

In fact, I DIY’d about 95% of my wedding, and I would tell every future couple the same thing: you don’t have to go all out. Keep it simple. Let the architecture, character, and elegance of The Ivy speak for you. The “bones” of this venue are absolutely beautiful, and they create the perfect canvas for whatever vision you have.

Meg and Mike, thank you SOOOOO much for everything you did for us. Thank you for listening, caring, accommodating, anticipating our needs, and making us feel so incredibly special from the moment we walked through The Ivy’s doors to the moment our wedding day ended.

We will forever be grateful that we found our “gem” and that we got to celebrate the beginning of our marriage there.

The Ivy at Ellis Preserve will always hold such a special place in our hearts. 💕

We absolutely loved our wedding at Ellis Preserve Ballroom. The staff was absolutely incredible, the food was to die for, and the party never ended. From start to finish, our experience with the Finley Catering Staff was smooth and effortless. We loved having a venue that was extremely professional and organized. As a bride, it was as an exceptional feeling to not be stressed leading up to the wedding. I was able to feel excited and enjoy my time with my husband-to-be in advance of our big day thanks to Megan, Nikki and the Finley Catering Staff. They were truly exceptional and we received so many complements from our guests that our special day was truly the best wedding they have ever attended! Thank you so much Meg, Nikki, and Finley catering, you truly are incredible. We hope all newly engaged couples choose Ellis Preserve and a Finley Catering!!!

The IVY venue was everything and more that we could've hoped for. We wanted a venue that felt more like a party and less like a traditional wedding venue. All our family and friends are still talking about the food weeks after. Because the venue is flooded with color and textures, you don't need to spend much on decor and flowers. We ended up not adding any extras but they surprised us the day of with the sparkler entrance which i thought was very sweet. I wish we had a little more time before cocktail hour in the suite without being charged for it but they did make up for it by giving us free range to take pictures at the cottages directly across the street.

We truly could not have asked for a better experience at The Ivy at Ellis Preserve. From the planning process through the wedding day itself, their entire team was absolutely incredible. Every detail was taken care of, and they made the whole process so much easier and less stressful for us.

On our wedding day, we felt so well taken care of from beginning to end. The level of attention and service was amazing, and it allowed us to just enjoy the day knowing everything was being handled behind the scenes. The venue itself was beautiful, everything ran seamlessly, and the food was incredible. We had so many guests tell us how much they loved the food and how impressed they were with the venue and service.

It was very clear how much care and attention went into making our wedding special. We felt genuinely taken care of every step of the way, and the entire experience exceeded our expectations. We are so grateful to everyone at The Ivy for giving us such an amazing wedding day and would recommend them without hesitation!

From the moment we toured The Ballroom at Ellis Preserve, we knew it was the perfect place for our wedding. The venue is absolutely beautiful, but what truly sets Ellis Preserve apart is the incredible team behind it.

The attention to detail, care, and dedication from everyone at Finley Catering is unmatched. They go above and beyond to make sure every detail is perfect and ensure not only the couple, but every guest, has an unforgettable experience.

The food was absolutely amazing, we had so many guests tell us it was the best food they’ve ever had at a wedding! The service, atmosphere, and overall experience were truly incredible.

Jordan, our event coordinator, was with us from the very beginning and made the entire planning process feel seamless. She was always helpful, responsive, and someone we could truly count on throughout the year. Nikki, our maître d’, was amazing on our wedding day and was on top of every detail, allowing us to relax and enjoy every moment.

We cannot thank Jordan, Nikki, and the entire Finley Catering team enough for making our wedding day everything we dreamed of and more. If you are considering Ellis Preserve, book it, you will not regret it!
