Fantastic Wedding Venue!

A stunning venue for special events. Hosted my wedding there and it was the perfect spot for an intimate wedding and our guests loved the venue! My husband and I stayed the night before the wedding at the Gingerbread House and it was great. The rooms on the second floor had been renovated and they were inviting and cozy.

The venue manager Ann was really nice, accommodating, and replied fast to any inquiries; unfortunately, I didn't get to meet her in person due to an emergency but she made sure that we had everything we needed for our event. The bar staff was fantastic as well. I highly recommend The Gingerbread House, it's the perfect venue!

The Gingerbread House is lovely!

The Gingerbread House is a fantastic place to hold an event! The architecture inside and out is beautiful. The size of the space is perfect for a small gathering. Ann and her staff were very accommodating throughout the process of booking, planning and the day of our wedding. They’re quick to respond to questions and concerns! The bar staff they hire are also wonderful! We highly recommend using this space for any event!

My wedding was PERFECT!

I booked our wedding at the Gingerbread House before the Sarah/Michelle switch over. I was initially concerned because I read the past reviews about lack of response from Sarah….but sometime in the beginning of 2021, Michelle had taken over as coordinator and she was absolutely amazing! I am very type-A and need to be on top of everything and plan ahead, etc. Michelle was excellent at keeping me updated on everything she was doing, communicating with me, and answered my questions pretty much immediately. When it came down to it, I wasn’t stressed at all because I had no doubt in my mind that everything would be perfect….and IT WAS! From my cake, to my flowers, to the venue and the ceremony - I could not have asked for a better venue or coordinator. It was easy and beautiful! If you read past reviews, don’t let that get in the way of choosing this beautiful venue! I didn’t really work with the past coordinator, but I can tell you that Michelle is the best and will make your day AMAZING! ♥️
