A wedding experience that was everything we could have imagined and more. The very first wedding at The Crossvines.

We went to check out The Crossvines at the suggestion of the bride's father, after already settling on a different venue to host and hold our special day. He recommended The Crossvines after paying a visit for a work function a couple of months prior. Apparently this place had been known as a golf course, but recently opened a bistro and a winery. Even through we had already chosen a venue, we figured it couldn't hurt to check this place out given the recommendation.

The first thing that stood out on our first visit was the long drive up the private driveway leading up to the venue. It was a beautiful day outside, and the drive up to the building was absolutely gorgeous!!! The wife absolutely agreed, we parked and went inside. From the moment we walked through everything just looked so nice and well put together. The seating area near the entrance, the great lighting and decor, the large windows that let all the natural light in, this place was just a sight to see!

Soon after arriving we were met by Rhonda, who is the wedding and catering director at The Crossvines. She gave us a tour of the beautiful facility, showing off the the main dining area which was immaculate and perfect for our reception, the beautiful hallway outside the dining hall which was a perfect space for our wedding ceremony, the large spacious bridal and groom suites that were on opposite sides of the building, and the beautiful outdoor area with outdoor seating for the bistro, an outdoor fireplace, and a large open patio-like area overlooking the lush green fields of grass that served as a perfect space for our wedding photos. We left that day thinking the same thing; This is the place we want our wedding to be. It came at a significantly higher financial cost than our first venue, but it was SOOOOOO WORTH IT in the end.

The numerous times we've seen Rhonda, I honestly have never seen her without a smile on her face. Rhonda is personable, has high energy, and was a delight to work with in the months leading up to our wedding, ensuring at each step that our day would be enjoyable and memorable to us most importantly, but also our loved ones who would be attending. From decor options, food and cake tastings, ceremony and reception details, coordinating with vendors, communication with us, the wedding rehearsal, she made sure all the details were covered. I really can't say enough about how much we both appreciate her knowledge, expertise, and gift of coordination that helped make the entire planning process stress and headache free.

The day of our wedding, 03FEB24, the very first wedding held at The Crossvines, ran as if they had been in the wedding business for decades. They literally had everything we could possibly need on site, in our wedding suites, charcuterie board for snacking, mouthwash, gum, cleaning wipes, sewing kit, a steamer, these people out a lot of thought into what can possibly go wrong, and how can it be addressed ASAP. They kept us updated, on time, got the parties lined up, down the aisles, and the ceremony was executed to perfection. The waiting staff was excellent attending to our guest. The wife and I had our own personal waitress who stayed with us throughout the entire event and took care of our every request, wants and needs expeditiously. THE FOOD WAS SOOOOOO DELICIOUS!!!!! We weren't the only ones to think this, our guests let us know how much loved not only the food but the entire experience, including the ceremony and reception from start to finish. In the end that all we really wanted was for people to enjoy and for our night to be memorable, and the entire Crossvines team showed out and delivered that for us.

I have to mention, we visited The Crossvines for the very first time on the last day of September 2023, made our decision to switch from the former venue in mid October, selected our customized wedding package and signed the contract in late November, and had our wedding in early February the following year. That is a VERY fast turnaround for planning and executing any large event, let alone something as personal and intimate as a wedding. And we had the honor and pleasure of being the first ever wedding held at this place. Again I have to take my hat off to Rhonda, Mrs. Danette Pickens, the general manager, the head chef, and the entire Crossvines support staff for helping to see our vision come to fruition.

It goes without saying, but let me say it and make it clear, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this wonderful venue for anyone who is looking for a location to hold their wedding and/or reception. You will be in good hands here. They know what they are doing, and they will take care of you. They will more than make your day special for you and your loved ones. Go check this place out like we did. You will fall in love with its beauty, inside and out, and Rhonda will take care of the rest. Thank you Crossvines for a day and evening the wife and I, close family and friends will always hold in our hearts and in our memories.

Incredible Bridal Shower!

My mom chose to host my bridal shower at Crossvines in March 2024. The venue space is fairly new and wasn't on our radar until a friend mentioned it. We went for lunch to check out the space and try the food and immediately fell in love. We soon connected with Rhonda, the Crossvines events manager, and she could not have been more lovely. She is so kind and did everything to ensure the day was exactly how we wanted it. Rhonda worked with my mom and I on our requests for the space, time of day, etc. She recommended some fabulous vendors, including a florist and balloon artist, and everything turned out great! The room was set up exactly how we discussed and my mom hardly had to do anything or worry day of! We had 30 guests and were able to use half the ballroom with trees tastefully sectioning it off. The food was fantastic and service was great. I'm sure a wedding here would be lovely too - the space is gorgeous and brand new.
