    The perfect venue for our wedding.

    We had our wedding at The Vandiver Inn. We can't recommend this venue more. We were in excellent hands, they helped make everything easy, and the wedding went off without a hitch. We can't recommend the Vandiver Staff enough. They're very passionate and fun, it's rare to see so many enjoy their job so much.

    The food was incredible, the rooms were awesome. Everything was perfect and if you're thinking about having an event here you should do it.

    Vandiver Inn's reply:

    What a special day! Thank you Gary for such a kind message. We LOVED your theme and it was a beautiful day!

    I had my wedding here on 03/31/23. My day of Coordinator Courtney was amazing and went above and beyond. Highly recommend this Venue. It includes the ceremony place, reception place and catering. And it a Inn where you can book rooms and wake up at your venue. The food here is absolutely delicious. And all the staff are very friendly!
