Best day ever

I am so happy I picked this venue. Aleah and her team go above and beyond for their brides and grooms! I wish I could relive the day all over again. I received so many compliments on the venue ,food and how much fun everyone had. On my wedding day everyone was very observant to make sure nothing went wrong. I wanted to change my shoes they were right there helping me. When you pick this venue know your picking a family that will go above and beyond to make sure your day is perfect! Shoutout to our day of coordinator Alisha. We loved her and thought she was an absolute doll. She made sure we had everything we needed :)

Best wedding ever!

After looking at several venues, we always felt like something was missing — until we stumbled upon The Venue at Chilleens. From the moment we toured it, we absolutely fell in love with the venue itself, but even more importantly, we fell in love with Alisha. She is truly amazing and was such a huge part of making our wedding perfect.

What made the experience even better was how connected and experienced the entire Chilleens team is. The photographers, florist, DJ, bakery — everyone has worked together for so long, and you can truly tell. Everything flowed so seamlessly, and it made the entire wedding planning process so much more fun, easy, and stress-free for us.

Alisha helped coordinate everything from start to finish and genuinely cared about making our day special. She went above and beyond for us every step of the way. We even ran into a major issue with our photographer, and Alisha was incredibly flexible and supportive, allowing us to work with another vendor so everything could still come together perfectly.

At the end of the day, everything worked out even better than we could have imagined. We’re so grateful for Alisha and everyone at The Venue at Chilleens for making our wedding day so special. We truly couldn’t recommend them enough!

This Venue is over the Top Amazing!

As a Photographer, I had the absolute pleasure of working with the team here. They were right on top of every detail with a big, cheerful smile and made everyone feel so comfortable during the wedding. I was given so much support, including location ideas, advice for best lighting, scheduled time frames, timelines, a guided desert tour and even iced vitamin water while taking formals. The food was outstanding! I hope to take part in many more. Thanks for having me!

Happily ever after!

I chose to do a smaller 40 person all-inclusive wedding at this venue and I cannot speak enough to how personal everything was and how wonderful they made me, my husband, and each guest feel for this event! Their hard work and dedication shows in every detail! During the planning process, there were times my husband and I felt like we were doing something wrong because we had always heard that wedding planning was supposed to be stressful, but we hadn't been stressed by the planning or anything at all! Each time we met with a vendor, we kept feeling better and more confident about how the actual day would turn out. If you choose this venue, you are in good hands! This is the relationship every married or soon-to-be married couples should have with their wedding. I was able to relax and take a breather and know that they understood what I wanted. As the wedding day approached, a sense of calm is all we felt and that feeling never went away!!! Everything about this venue is an 11/10 from the prices, flexibility, staff, vendor partnerships, and the routine of conducting weddings. We were able to get everything we wanted and more out of this experience and we weren't left with ANY regrets about the day. Also, Alicia, the coordinator --- IS THE ABSOLUTE BEST-- if you are not to book the venue because of the other features mentioned above... I would book again solely because of our experience with her. She is the best coordinator you will find not only in Arizona, but probably the entire world! She thought of every detail, communicated perfectly and without pressure, and genuinely cared about US having the best wedding. This is not just a job for her, you can tell she puts love and effort into each couple's story and day because she cares, not because it is on her job title or duties. This was proven in every single aspect of the event, each time she had an opportunity to go above and beyond, she did. like I said, we only had a 40 person wedding, but she treated it like it was a 250 person wedding with the amount of effort and care she put into each detail. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU TO THE VENUE AT CHILLEENS FOR TRULY GIVING US A DAY WE ARE HAPPY TO LOOK BACK AND REMEMBER FOREVER! Thank you for being a part of our story and allowing us to create a new chapter in our book with you. In a lot of ways, you did not have to make our day as eventful and memorable as you did... there are a lot of experiences we received that were not stated in a contract or because of the money we paid for the wedding... For all of the things not included in that contact or the package, thank you! You can tell each and every staff member and vendor is in the wedding business because they love love. For that, thank you forever and always. You all are doing an amazing job! Cait and Nick Brown

10/10 recommend

The Venue at Chilleens was the perfect choice for our wedding day. From the moment we first reached out, their communication was prompt, clear, friendly, knowledgeable, and caring. The venue itself is incredibly romantic, photogenic, and has a wonderful rustic charm. On the day of our wedding, the staff was so kind and welcoming, and they made everything seamless and smooth - from the custom letter board with our wedding date and new last name, to the set up and breakdown. The all-inclusive package was great value, with amazing vendors and delicious food. I have nothing but the best things to say about The Venue at Chilleens, and would highly recommend them to any couple planning their special day.

We LOVE Chilleens

Its taken us a full four weeks from our wedding day on 9/27 to actually sit down and put to words how wonderful Chilleens is. From the moment we booked with them Alisha and her whole team were truly our partners in making our big day absolutely perfect. There wasn’t a single text or call that went unanswered and there was always solution on the other line. People told us for 18 months no matter how much you plan, things will go wrong on your wedding day, and they were right. All the inevitable hiccups (like a car on fire on the i17 creating three hours of traffic) seemed like they weren’t even a problem. The whole staff made our day absolutely amazing. We were struck with a heat wave that weekend and even Tracey the DJ was above and beyond by placing ice packs on our necks and putting fans under the sweetheart table. When I tell you this team does it all, THEY DO IT ALL. We forever love the Chilleens team! If you’re debating on booking, let this be your sign that Chilleens will make your day perfect.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
