Beyond our wildest dreams

We are so grateful we were able to get married at The Chanler. It was the perfect venue for our dream wedding. The did a “buyout weekend” wedding for 155 guests. The grounds and interiors are fantastic and allow for so much flexibility (photos, rain plan, varying locations throughout the event, etc). Working with Caite was an absolute dream. She worked so hard to help us achieve our vision - even going to Peak Event Services herself to help us select stemware. We did not hire a wedding planner, but felt in fabulous hands with Caite at the helm of the day. Christina, Meghan, Filipe, Chef Jasinski and the whole team were incredible. We hosted brunch on Terrace the next day which was also perfect and delicious. Thank you team Chanler!

So perfect!

We could not have asked for a better experience for our wedding. We stayed in the Louis XVI room the night before and night of the wedding, and my mom and I got ready there. It is beautiful and also has a perfect balcony (if it’s not a hurricane like it was for us). The Chanler driver took us to Kay chapel for our ceremony and the the reception was on the Chanler’s terrace. It was lovely and Haley and Katherine were organized and attentive. Overall it was a lovely time and we are excited to come back to celebrate our anniversary!

Intimate Fall Wedding at The Chanler

My husband and I chose a small and intimate (16 person) wedding ceremony at The Chanler and could not have been happier with the level of detail and service that we received. Jessica is truly amazing and was always available before, during, and after the BIG day! The historic setting and whimsical charm that The Chanler provides is truly an experience. I can't thank the staff enough for how incredible they were with our families!

The Chanler at Cliff Walk is one of my favorite venues to photograph weddings. Beautiful location and views, very practical rain or shine and the staff is very friendly and on point.
