Very first wedding at the Crawford

I am honored to have been the very first wedding at the Crawford! My fiancé and I had been looking for an outdoor ceremony space and indoor reception area for awhile and felt defeated. I still don’t know how I found this venue, but I am so so happy that I did! The space is beyond stunning and our guests were truly in awe. It’s a blank slate to do whatever colors and decor you choose with the most modern and elegant feel I’ve seen from a venue so far. Oliver took care of us from the start! He was there for every phone call, question, and text, big or small! He helped connect me to vendors, set up seating charts, and always asked questions about things I didn’t think of. We had the option to bring in our own vendors and everyone worked together so well on the day of. For me, Anna’s, the event manager’s service was the icing on the cake. She is your hype woman when you need her, your train fluffer, and point of contact when you need her on the wedding night. She was so responsive on my wedding and always made sure to check in throughout the night. The bartenders were so so fun and really got to know our guests and what they liked. We cannot thank the Crawford enough for hosting our wedding and would recommend it to anyone!

Branding Session

I am a wedding planner that has worked with The Crawford for weddings and have loved that experience and the beauty of the venue. So when I needed photos for my new branding, I reached out to them to ask if I could possibly rent the facility to use as a backdrop. They were fantastic to work with for this part of the project. The venue was gorgeous as always, and they asked if there was anything they could do to make it better for that day. It was such a wonderful experience. Once again, they were nothing but professional and amazing to work with! I highly recommend The Crawford for any of your event needs!!

Our dream venue!

We just had our wedding at The Crawford in March and it was the BEST experience! The Crawford is stunning, elegant, and spacious. We worked with Catie, Anna, and Oliver who all were excellent with communication and kindly answered all my many many questions. They worked with me and my budget and were a friendly and calming presence on my wedding day. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better venue!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
