Worth the wait!

Elm Estate first booked us for an October 2020 wedding... then April 2021... then October 2021... and finally we had our reception with them on April 9, 2022! In the midst of turnover of staff and a global pandemic, they provided professional service and absolutely beautiful grounds for our long-awaited celebration with family and friends. We had dancing, outdoor games, nannies for the kiddos, a whisky tasting bar, photo backdrops, comfortable, spacious tables and chairs, and an absolute blast. Thoughtful details made all the difference -- like bathrooms you can use even in a wedding ballgown! And their staff did all the clean up afterwards, boxing up our decorations and making the time after the wedding a breeze. Every time we had a tasting (we had several, due to staff turnover), we felt valued and cared for, and like they were listening to us and helping us make our dream come true.

perfect place to get married!

I am so excited to review The Elm Estate! My (now) husband and I had an overall amazing experience working with The Elm Estate for our June wedding- even during a pandemic! Our wedding coordinator was Megan Brock and she went above and beyond. She is just amazing and was basically a built in wedding planner which is unheard of at venues! She helped with literally everything. Megan was so committed to making our day exactly what we wanted, even when I would make changes every other day! She was so responsive, easy to get ahold of and always so professional and kind. She has such an eye for making sure all the details are covered and she is so easy to work with! I fully believe without her our experience would not have been as amazing as it was. I saw in another review that someone was unable to be at the venue until 2pm the day of their wedding- we were able to be there as early as 1pm. If I had one complaint it is that as well. I think for the price and overall wedding experience that you should have access to the property starting in the morning the day of your wedding. However, they do work with you in what they can offer for the day and it doesn't change my feeling towards the overall experience. The Elm Estate is so beautiful that you truly hardly have to decorate, the staff truly works with you to get exactly what you're asking for. Oh and the bartender... AMAZING! I wish I could remember her name. Our wedding was everything we wanted because of this venue!

Best day ever

Megan Brock at the Elm Estate was amazing. She was helpful, responsive and kind. She helped us navigate all the details- even having to make changes due to COVID 19. The Elm Estate is a beautiful venue! My daughter and son in law had the most beautiful wedding.
