Great coordinator

The wedding coordinator, Elizabeth, is extremely helpful and flexible with our planning thus far. This who wedding planning is new to us of course and can be a bit overwhelming but having such a great coordinator really helps take the stress away:)

Perfect Venue

We cannot say enough about how much we loved the Peninsula. Elizabeth was so great to work with, making the wedding planning process a breeze. The food was delicious and the staff was friendly. Our friends and family could not say enough about how beautiful the venue was.

Amazing in every way!

The Peninsula Club was the venue of our dreams! They do such an incredible job putting on events and everything was better than expected. Elizabeth is AMAZING to work with. She’s so skilled at what she does and answered all of our questions before we even had time to have them. She is detail oriented and will ensure that you have a completely stress free experience!! The food is amazing and the venue is large enough to accommodate big groups, while still feeling intimate. They have a beautiful outdoor ceremony location but also offer. beautiful indoor Alternative if it rains. Highly recommend this venue/ staff!

Our Perfect Day

We held our wedding and reception at the Peninsula Club, and it was the most amazing, perfect day! The venue itself is beautiful, and Elizabeth Benton, our wedding coordinator, is the consummate professional. She kept everything moving seamlessly behind the scenes, and I didn't have to worry about anything except enjoying my guests and having a great time. The food and the staff were fantastic, down to the very smallest details. I highly recommend this venue.

We visited over 10 different venues in the Charlotte area prior to seeing the Peninsula Club and were blown away by it! The space is perfect for an outdoor ceremony (it looks out onto Lake Norman) with a great back-up option in case the weather does not cooperate. The ballroom was the perfect size for our 150 person reception and there was a spacious balcony for any guests who wanted to mingle in a quieter area away from the dance floor. We worked with Amanda and she was simply wonderful! She was very thorough in going through the plan for the day, and the day of the wedding we didn't have to worry about anything. Her staff put up all of the decorations, and everyone was where they needed to be. Amanda and her staff had our favorite drinks ready for us at the start of the reception and re-filled throughout. They even packed a to-go box for us with the cake to make sure we got a chance to try it! We received a lot of compliments on the venue and the food. It was everything we wanted and more!

The Peninsula Club was an amazing venue for our wedding! Everything is beautiful at this country club from the grounds, the views, the rooms, and even the extravagant bathrooms! Having our ceremony on the patio overlooking Lake Norman was gorgeous, and they also have a great indoor back-up plan for the ceremony that is wonderful as well. They have a separate room for the cocktail hour, which makes the big reveal of the ballroom for the reception even more special and amazing! Elizabeth was a great coordinator-I felt sure she had everything under control, and she did! The whole event went smoothly and I didn't have to worry about a thing the day of the wedding-she made sure all the decor, vendors, and other set up were taken care of! She always responded to emails quickly and answered my millions of questions. The food there was also incredible. My husband and I are very sad we didn't get to enjoy the appetizers, but we made sure to enjoy our dinner because it was phenomenal! We also always felt welcome there, whereas when I visited a couple other country clubs, they wanted to make sure you stayed away from their vendors as if you were a nuisance! Everything at this venue was wonderful!

So glad we chose this as our wedding venue. Everything about it was perfect! We had an outdoor wedding (with an indoor back-up plan) and an indoor reception. The venue coordinator, Elizabeth, was AWESOME. She and her staff have obviously done this a time or two and made everything run absolutely seamlessly! We received so many compliments on how great everything was--venue, parking availability, staff, food, drinks--EVERYTHING. Could not have asked for anything more!

My daughter's reception was held at The Peninsula Club and I can't say enough about this venue, and their wedding planner, Elizabeth Walczy!! This venue is one of the most beautiful around, the price was very reasonable, and the food was absolutely delicious!!! Elizabeth was so caring and helpful throughout the whole planning process and wedding day!! She took care of everything so that my husband and I could actually relax and enjoy the festivities!! Elizabeth even helped us get a plate and a seat for a guest that hadn't rsvp'd! Elizabeth, and the Peninsula Club, made it possible to give our daughter the wedding we all dreamed of!!! I highly recommend The Peninsula Club!!

The Peninsula Club made my dream wedding come true! The venue itself is gorgeous – beautifully decorated, view of the lake and grounds, great layout, and inviting atmosphere. We were looking for a venue for both our ceremony and reception, so having an option for a pretty outdoor ceremony as well as an indoor option (that wasn’t on the dance floor) was important. Their ‘plan B’ indoor room for a ceremony was the nicest we’d seen and would have been lovely had we not been fortunate to have an amazing spring day full of sunshine and blue skies!
Since the venue is a club, it has a kitchen which made our life a lot easier (rather than having to find a caterer), and all of our food was delicious – much better than ‘typical’ wedding food. The service was outstanding – all staff members were friendly, helpful, and clearly experienced in weddings – and we felt well taken-care-of the entire event. Additionally, the club provided a lot of perks that greatly helped with planning (and costs) such as votive candles, mirrors for the centerpieces, pedestals for the ceremony flowers, and linens in a variety of colors.
Elizabeth was terrific to work with – very responsive, always had time for my (many) questions, and willing to help us think through and plan for this big event. She was incredibly professional and made us feel at ease. She seamlessly executed the numerous moving parts in preparing for and running the venue on the day-of. It was a pleasure to work with her, and I couldn’t be happier with my wedding experience!!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
