No Brainer!!

Walnut Hill is perfect. Having two houses (one for girls, one for guys) to get ready in is a HUGE bonus. The property itself is gorgeous and provided so many areas for great photos. Our ceremony was at the Lakeside Gardens and we were obsessed from the moment we saw it. Great rain plan areas too!! Highly recommend, we received many compliments!

Dream Venue

The minute I stepped foot onto the property I knew it was the place I wanted to say I do. I had pictured the most beautiful day with there ceremony at the open air chapel (swoon), cocktail hour outside and utilizing the sugar shack for a bar, and reception in the barn. WELL Mother nature had other plans. Luckily Amanda assured me it would all still be beautiful and the most magical day ever. SHE WAS RIGHT. she held the umbrella over me the entire time I had to be outside, and also held my train so it didn't get trashed. This place is the best. And so many options! LOVE IT!

Stunning venue!

I can't say enough amazing things about Walnut Hill, Amanda and her team! They go above and beyond to make everything so special and amazing and I just appreciate the friendship with Amanda and how comfortable she made us feel. This venue is so stunning and if I could go back and do it all over again I'd do it in a heartbeat! If you're looking for a spacious and over all beautiful location with so many great options for a ceremony spot this is the venue for you!
