Very first wedding at the Crawford
Beautiful and versatile wedding venue
The bridal suite was perfect for hair, makeup, and beautiful pre-ceremony photos. We also loved using the billiards room as an additional getting-ready space and for a variety of fun photo moments. The chapel was another stunning spot for portraits, and we later used it as the room for our food stations. Our ceremony took place on the patio, and we used the ballroom for both cocktail hour and the reception. We were even able to create a cute lounge area using The Crawford’s furniture, which worked out perfectly.
The venue itself is truly gorgeous and spacious, and the team made the experience even better. Sarah was incredibly responsive, helpful, flexible, and genuinely fun to work with throughout the entire planning process - we appreciated her so much!
Also, the location is nearby a ton of hotel options, and the venue has a large parking lot!
