100/10 – The Vista Made Our Wedding Perfect!

We got married at The Vista at Van Patten and couldn’t be happier with our experience. The venue is beautiful, but Kim, the coordinator, is what truly sold us. From day one to the final goodbye, she was incredible — organized, calming, and completely on top of everything.

Our large families were served quickly, the food was delicious, and the drinks kept flowing — no bar lines! The staff ran everything flawlessly so we could just enjoy the day. We’d recommend The Vista 100 times over. Trusting Kim with your day is the best decision you’ll make!

Kim and Van Patten are the best!

We had our wedding at Van Patten this past weekend and it was amazing! I can't imagine the day of without Kim's help and reassurance. The venue and staff were amazing. Kim's communication throughout the whole wedding process was so helpful.

Wedding Venue

My husband and I chose Van Patten after attending a birthday party there. It was a different location than the usual wedding hot spots. It had the look and feel we were looking for.
Ultimately what sealed the deal for us was Kim, she went above and beyond for us and really helped shape the wedding of our dreams. She was so responsive to my million emails and questions. She really took out any stress that I could have encountered.

Didn't book but still reccomending!

We did not end up going with Van Patten for our wedding, but Kim made such a fantastic impression on us I wanted to give them a 5 star review. She was so lovely and kind, straight forward and honest, she really put us at ease. The place is beautiful --we looked at nearly every local golf club and this was far an away the best looking inside, plus a great patio and grounds. Their pricing is very fair for the area, and it seems their team would work a wedding like a well oiled machine. Definitely worth checking out!!

I knew I wanted to have my wedding at Van Patten once I walked in and met Kim. She made me feel so comfortable with her and seemed just as excited as I did. She was always so quick to respond to me and made everything I asked for work. The grounds are gorgeous and the staff was so friendly and sweet. I loved simply everything about Van Patten and my wedding day. Couples that attended our wedding want to have events there because of how perfect everything was! Thank you so much for everything!!

There is not enough time in the day or room on this page to explain how amazing our wedding was at The Vista. We met Kim five years ago while planning my baby shower and from that second, we knew that when the time came, she was going to be a part of our special day. She answered all of our questions within a business day, was super flexible with the meal (we had a number of kids under 5 AND people with gluten allergies), opened the bridal suite to the girls early the day of, offered drinks and snacks, cleaned up after a wild night while managing to not lose a thing, and even put flowers on my cake!!! Our wedding - the ceremony space, cocktail hour, and reception space were out of this world beautiful. The bar staff was super friendly - all of our guests raved about the open bar and staff behind it. By far, the best night of our lives and we owe it to Kim. She's professional, knows the wedding industry, and will give you an honest opinion. She's sweet, hilarious, and so much fun! If there was a wrinkle in anything that day, I knew nothing about it. She handled everything with ease and grace. The Vista at Van Patten is, without a doubt, the best kept wedding venue secret. THank you for making our day PERFECT in every way. Love, Brad and Meagan

The moment my husband and I met with Kim, the wedding coordinator at Van Patten, we knew we had found our dream venue. Leading up to and on the day of, Kim and her staff at Van Patten (along with the beautiful grounds) did not disappoint! Kim was attentive and involved from the very first time we met her and our day was absolutely perfect! Any time we emailed or called, Kim provided an immediate response. Any time I had a worry or concern, Kim was there to ease my mind. I knew everything would be taken care of the day of, and my expectations were exceeded. On the day of, the wait staff could not have been more attentive, friendly, and helpful. They frequently checked in on us and our guests and all of our guests RAVED about the food and the service. The outdoor tent provided the most gorgeous ceremony as the sun set behind us as we said our vows. The cocktail room and ballroom provided the most exquisite canvas that needed only a few decorations. Since the entire grounds were closed for our day, our guests had more than enough room between the bar area, outdoor patio, and ballroom to move and groove or enjoy a nice beverage or cigar on the patio by the fire pits. I could go on and on about the grounds, the venue, and the staff at Van Patten. My husband and I cannot thank them enough for providing us with the most perfect day that we will cherish for the rest of our lives!! EXCEPTIONAL!
