From our first meeting with the event coordinator to the day of, everything was easy, straight forward, well communicated and timely. The Arboretum was are first date and was perfect for our wedding ceremony.

We had our wedding ceremony and reception at The Lantern Court Estate at Holden Arboretum on 8/17/19. Our wedding day was flawless, all thanks to the fabulous venue and staff. From the beginning of our wedding planning, Shannon was responsive, detail oriented, and organized. Every detail was covered with Shannon and the caterer in a meeting prior to the wedding to ensure the day was arranged according to our wishes. In addition, we had a rehearsal on site the day before our wedding coordinated by Holden Arboretum’s staff who were also present on the wedding day to review final details. Our plan was then executed perfectly by Nicole and the rest of Holden Arboretum’s staff which resulted in a perfect wedding day.
The grounds and inside of the estate are beautiful. Lantern Court Estate has a classic, vintage, natural feel, which requires minimal decoration. Our pictures came out beautifully due to the amount of greenery and flowers everywhere. Having everything on site for the entire day (wedding suite for getting ready, ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception) all in one place made the day easy for ourselves and the guests. We were able to rent the entire estate and grounds for 10 hours, so everyone had access to the estate the whole day. Also, Holden Arboretum provides a preferred list of vendors who do weddings at Lantern Court Estate frequently, so that made who we chose for catering, music, tenting etc. an easy decision and made planning smoother as they were familiar with the site.
Overall, we could not have chosen a better site for a wedding than The Lantern Court Estate at Holden Arboretum. The ease of planning due to the professional, organized, fabulous staff combined with the beauty of the estate made for a worry free, perfect day, and we have zero complaints. We would recommend without hesitation having a wedding or event here and were thrilled with our decision to get married at Lantern Court Estate.

I couldn't imagine having my wedding anywhere else. The staff was incredibly accommodating and made us feel comfortable throughout the entire process. The event space was beautiful. All of my family and friends raved that it was the best, most beautiful wedding they've ever been to. I would choose Lantern Court 10x over and plan on recommending it to all future friends for their weddings.

Lantern Court @ Holden Arboretum is a stunning location from ceremony to cocktail hour to reception. It's beautiful!!! The grounds are gorgeous and the house is a really special location. The events team there is also amazing--incredibly organized, thoughtful, and responsive. They are attentive to detail and communicative; they also coordinated with all of our vendors to make the day run smoothly from beginning to end.

Lantern Court is not only spectacularly beautiful, it is organized in such a way that guests smoothly transition from one picturesque space to another as the day proceeds from ceremony to cocktail hour to dinner and dancing--it's the perfect all-in-one venue.

Having our ceremony AND reception at Holden Arboretum's Lantern Court estate was the best decision we made. We had under 70 people, which is perfect because the venue is better fit for smaller guest lists. Their list of approved/regular vendors was so helpful and we used a few of them since they were already familiar with the location. Any questions we had in the process were quickly addressed with genuine concern. In person, the staff was incredibly friendly, helpful and shared in our enthusiasm for our big day. Shannon and Nicole were like family by the end and we felt so grateful to have them guide us through everything - it was just about seamless. I'm glad we didn't have an additional wedding coordinator or planner because they did SO much to assist us. Check out this venue - it's beautifully nestled in nature and wonderfully maintained.

My wife and I have been members of Holden Arboretum for a while and so it was a no brainer for use to inquire about having our wedding there. Shannon Bradick was our main contact for everything and was so helpful and very accommodating to our requests. Nicole was the coordinator during the actual wedding/reception and helped get everyone to where they needed to be. Everything went off without a hitch and all of our guests couldn't stop complimenting how beautiful the venue was.

Loved every minute of our wedding and Shannon made everything so easy for us!

We had our wedding at Lantern Court, the mansion that is part of Holden. We are so happy that we did! Great prices, extremely flexible and an extremely nice staff. We had such a great experience working with them. And it is a great place, it's beautiful, someone secluded and intimate and an interesting place for guests to explore. The set up is fantastic, I definitely suggest renting the whole property so guest can explore freely. The volunteers make jam in the kitchen there to sell in the gift shop in the main property - we decided to purchase them for favors. Our guests loved them, and they come in a pretty jar. I am so happy we went with this venue. Highly recommend!!!

Perfect for our wedding. All of our guests enjoyed the ceremony overlooking the butterfly garden. And our photos came out beautifully.

My daughter was married at Lantern Court at Holden Aboretum. The venue holds about 80 people. It is a beautiful setting with an amazing event planner. Everyone worked really hard to make the event successful.
