The Perfect Day
I cannot say enough good things about the Verandah Club and Kaitlin. They were the perfect venue for our day and I couldn't imagine us getting married anywhere else. From the start, Kaitlin was always responsive to my e-mails and many many questions throughout the process. She followed though on just about every request that we had leading up to the day and on the day. She even honored a request that she previously told me she couldn't do, going above and beyond ALWAYS.
I highly recommend hiring Kaitlin as your day-of coordinator. Not only did she keep everything organized, she is always on hand to cater to anything you need when getting ready there! She will literally drop what she is doing to make sure your every need is taken care of. She is tough as nails and the sweetest person I have ever met.
I also have not stopped getting compliments on the FOOD. Everyone loved the food and keep raving about it to us whenever they get the chance! We had chicken franchaise and carved prime rib. YUM. The bar services were also incredible! Kaitlin ordered ingredients for us to make sure that we could have one of our signature cocktails and will order anything that you prefer if they do not have it. Another example of how they go above and beyond.
Overall, from the beautiful Oaks at the ceremony, the amazing food, the comfortable reception space, and KAITLIN, our day was perfect and I would recommend anyone to have their wedding here. We wanted to avoid golf courses/country clubs when we were searching for venues out of personal choice but we couldn't get over how much we loved Verandah and what they had to offer. Thank you so much to Kaitlin and the Verandah club team for making our day something we will remember for the rest of our lives.

Absolutely Amazing!!!
The Verandah Club was amazing! I highly recommend. We got married at the Verandah Club this past February and it was absolutely incredible! Not only was it a beautiful location but Kaitlin and her staff were incredible to work with. I can't say enough great things about Kaitlin. As a bride she made sure the day and my vision went off without a hitch. She was so accommodating and so easy to work with and truly took so much stress off of me. It was the best experience we could have asked for (:

Beale Wedding
First I wanna say this venue is beautiful and the staff is amazing !!! We got married February 17,2024 and couldn’t have had a more special day without the help of the employees at the verandah especially Kaitlin. As our wedding coordinator Throughout the entire planing process to the day of she was on point . Answered any questions and or problems that came up :) she handled everything she’s a pro. We got married under the beautiful oak trees and our reception was in the ball room . The bartenders were awesome all of the guests enjoyed themselves. If you are planing on getting married this is the place !

Fairytale Wedding
I genuinely don't even know where to begin this review, our experience from start to finish with Kaitlin and the whole Verandah staff was out of this world. My husband and I knew from the very start of our planning process that Verandah Club was the venue we wanted to get married. We viewed other venues, but none checked all the boxes like Verandah. From the enchanting old oaks with draping Spanish moss, to the spectacular reception hall, it was everything we imagined our wedding to be. And then we met Kaitlin, and we knew there was no other option for us. Kaitlin went above and beyond to meet every question, every worry, every moment of panic throughout the whole planning process with patience and caring and understanding. She treated us like friends, she was invested in making our dreams come true. She never once made us feel like this was just a job for her, even though at the end of the day it was. She went out of her way to ensure we had everything we wanted present the day of the wedding. She and her staff made our wedding day as stress free and blissful as possible. From the beginning of the wedding day to the very end, we could not have asked for more. Superior service, superior staff, superior venue, SUPERIOR Coordinator. RUN, don't walk, and book your wedding with The Verandah Club immediately!

Outstanding
There are no words to describe the amazing staff at verandah club. Kaitlin is honestly one of the most wholesome and thoughtful people I have ever met. If anyone is considering whether or not to add her as your day of coordinator, DO IT! She came in handy in more ways than one. Even months before our wedding I knew I could call her or email her and she was there to answer any questions I had. I had food poisoning a few days before our wedding and she knew my stomach was still recovering and she took it upon herself to ask the chef to make me something I could stomach.
I have received SO MANY compliments on her staff as well. People have said how friendly, fun and most importantly ATTENTIVE they were.
I wish I could have had more of the food because it is amazing!! We went with the river house buffet and have also received many compliments on how great the food was.
My wedding day felt effortless and that’s all due to kaitlin and her staff at verandah club. If I could do it all over again I would!!

Mother of the groom
There are no words for the wonderful service we received from Kaitlin, Dakota, Misty, & the rest of the staff. Our experience from start to finish was beyond 10 stars. Kaitlin was always responsive to any phone calls or emails very quickly. We also had her for our day of coordinator, & that was the smartest money we spent. She made sure we were on the same page vision wise, & when any small problem arose, she handled it without 25 phone calls to me for minor things. When I walked into the reception for the 1st time, I almost cried it was so beautiful! It was everything I was hoping for & more. The venue is stunning, the food was excellent. I just can't say enough about the staff. They interact professionally, yet in a fun manner. Dakota & Misty went out of their way to be helpful during the entire process as well. If The Verandah Club is on your list of venues for consideration, you will not regret taking the next step and booking them!
