Charming, professional, seamless, and just perfect.
I truly do not have a single complaint; this review could not be more honest, and my husband and I are already planning an anniversary trip to go back and eat dinner in our new favorite place.

Perfect, Timeless Wedding
Booking process: Booking and touring was very easy. The event coordinator at the time was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly, and answered all of our questions.
Planning: Matt was awesome in assisting with coordinating our day - from timing to menu design. He even made suggestions for our late-night snack given our small party size, so that everything looked perfect. I had quite a few questions and requests during this time, and was always met with professionalism, despite a staffing change at the Greenbriar. It was so nice to have everything in-house: food, drinks, ceremony, reception, dessert, chairs, china and glassware. We only had to think about our external vendors (photobooth, photographer, decor).
Rehearsal: Matt was so helpful! He walked us through everything and gave us pointers to look the best for pictures. He checked how many songs we had for the ceremony, so he could queue us perfectly down the aisle. The Greenbriar has done a lot of weddings, and you can tell by their attention to detail.
Day-of: Matt and Valerie are absolute rockstars. The venue even had a female staff member assist me with my dress train when walking to the ceremony space. Matt coordinated the ceremony without a hitch. The space was absolutely gorgeous for pictures. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive. Valerie was AMAZING (like I want to invite her to my Christmas party for the rest of my life amazing). I felt so comforted by her presence. She took care of everything during the cocktail hour and reception. She grabbed us plates of appetizers while we took pictures, to make sure we got to eat our cocktail food too. She made sure we had the best, stress-free time, and paid attention to the little things, like making sure we took home our paper menu and keeping other restaurant guests out of our reserved space. People loved the food, but especially loved the seared elk loin, the late night parmesan truffle fries, and the tiramisu. I ended up accidentally leaving my veil, and Matt kept it safe until I was able to pick it up.
If you are looking for the classy, timeless vibes of your wedding dreams, look no further.
Absolutely fabulous wedding venue!
