The most perfect experience!

If I could go back and change anything about our wedding day, it would be to make it a 2 day event! Leslie and Kate were so wonderful to work with and day of I knew I wouldn't have a single worry in the world. The day was truly perfect and Kate was phenomenal. My 95 year old grandfather described the wedding as "the most elegant wedding he had ever seen". If that does not say it, I do not know what would. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

100% recommend The Oaks

The Oaks was the most beautiful venue with amazing staff. Kate made our day go off without a hitch and made sure we were relaxed throughout the day. The food was amazing and our guests raved about how great it was. The staff was so professional and helpful throughout the night. Can’t forget the amazing fireworks to top off the night. Wish we could relive this again!

Stop looking, you've found your venue!!!

Working with Leslie at The Oaks was a phenomenal experience, to say the absolute least. From the moment we met with her for our first tour, we knew she was the one. The Oaks is breathtaking, from the views over the golf course from the ceremony space to the neutral color palette and elegant decor. When we first met Leslie she was preparing for an event that evening, and it was refreshing and reassuring to see her in her element, taking care of the smallest details for that day. We immediately felt a connection with her and knew that she was going to guide us to our dream wedding. Throughout our wedding planning process, which was over 2 years, Leslie was there to answer our questions promptly, reassure us, guide us, and ensure that she understood our vision for our wedding day. When COVID happened, Leslie was on top of the state guidelines and regulations, and once again was a source of calm and guidance for us. We were able to have our wedding and it was beyond perfect. Leslie is a phenomenal event planner, and the vendor package that we went through with The Oaks ensured that all of our vendors worked together seamlessly to make it a perfect and extremely fun day. Just under a month later our family and friends are still raving about the food, the location, and the entire day start to finish. We wish we could plan another wedding with Leslie! And we will certainly be looking to The Oaks for any future events that we have! SERIOUSLY, GET MARRIED HERE!

Above and beyond

Leslie is amazing! We planned our big beautiful wedding for June 2020, unfortunately COVID happened. Leslie worked with us to postpone our big beautiful wedding to June 2021, but let us have a small intimate family ceremony on site with dinner at the restaurant afterwards. You could not find a better place or wedding coordinator!

Amazing Wedding Planner and Venue

Leslie was nothing short of amazing. She made the whole experience stress free. She was so informative and answered all our questions timely. The day of the wedding went so smoothly. She was there every step of the way making sure we were in the right spot at the right time and that the timeline was adhered to. Not only is Leslie amazing but so is the venue. The location makes for a beautiful background for picture. And if you’re debating the fireworks... DO IT! They are well worth the money. The guests loved it and the pictures were awesome. The only thing I would suggest is to make sure you have steak knives. For some reason they didn’t provide them at the tables and it made it hard to cut the steak.

Summer Wedding!

Ben and I got married on June 29th of this year at The Oaks - and are so thankful that we chose this venue!!! Leslie and her team, and every person we encountered there were AMAZING. The food options were wonderful and everyone complimented their meal. Leslie was there for us every step of the way and made sure every detail was perfect on our special day. We chose to go with the Platinum package- and to this day still say how it made our wedding planning fun and not a headache!! We also chose to add the fireworks at the end of the night- our friends and family are still talking about how awesome it was!! A HUGE thank you to The Oaks!!!

Dream Wedding Brought to Life

Chris and I got married at The Oaks Grandview Ballroom on June 22, 2019 and had the most amazing time! From the initial meeting to after our wedding was over, Leslie was there to help us every step of the way. She was very responsive to any questions we had and made sure every detail was considered and covered. The food options were wonderful, and everything was exactly what we talked about and what we envisioned when we arrived at the venue on our wedding day. Leslie made the day run smoothly, and thought of every last detail such that we are our guests had an amazing experience. Several people let us know that our wedding was the best they had been to! Not only was the interior beautiful, but the landscaping was perfection. If you are looking to have a beautiful wedding venue with an experienced wedding planner who will alleviate much of your wedding stress, The Oaks is the venue to choose.

Leslie Santiago and The Oaks made this the beat day of my life!

I can't thank Leslie enough for all she did to make this the most magical day of my life. She let me put all of my trust in her so that I didn't have to worry about a thing the entire day. I was able to enjoy every moment and it wouldn't have been possible without her. She is so kind, creative and knowledgeable. In addition, the venue itself was gorgeous. From the patio area groomed with brightly colored flowers looking over the beautiful green course to the ballroom sprinkled with tealight candles making it feel so romantic and special. Leslie made the ballroom look AMAZING and I'm so excited to see professional photos. I want to re-marry my best friend and relive that day at The Oaks over and over. Thank you to The Oaks and Leslie for making our dreams come true!
