    Very impressed

    This venue is awesome!!!!!!! I really enjoyed myself I am a wedding planner and my clients had their wedding here Feb 15 and they also loved it. Not only the castle but the staff there made it worth so much more. We have worked closely with Hannah and Paul McIntire and they was awesome Paul knowledge of the venue is out of this world!!! He had so much great suggestions and advice and because of him I will recommend all my clients in the area to this place. Paul is a true diamond that shines bright at Castle McCulloch!

    Best Day Ever!

    I don't know where to start. From Paulette as our contact at the castle to Stacie's help on the wedding day, everything was just perfect. We used Brian Anthony Photography, Keepsakes Bouquets, Monte at New Paradigm Studios, Cakes by B and Pepper Moon for catering and they all exceeded our expectations. It was a magical day and everything our daughter dreamed of since she was a little girl!

    Amazing, not stressful, beautiful!

    Just got married here. Everything was perfect and I had been stressing about so many little things but realized when I got there that everything was perfectly fine and handled!! It couldn’t have been better and our family had commented “that may have been the most beautiful wedding I have seen”. Samantha the coordinator and Stephanie were amazing girls and helped make it all come together!

    I had a great wedding at a great venue

    Words cannot express how amazing Samantha Payne and the Castle McCulloch staff was on my wedding day. Samantha was attentive to my needs and a calming force during my hectic times. She assured me that she would handle things and she DID!!! She was always asking if we needed anything throughout the day and I could genuinely tell she cared about us. Would 1000% percent recommend Castle McCulloch for a wedding, especially with Samantha rubbing the ship.

    Amazing unique wedding venue for our castle-themed wedding

    We got married at Castle McCulloch with the intimate wedding package on November 16, 2021, and overall we HIGHLY recommend them! This venue is ABSOLUTELY beautiful, and so unique. Very helpful and friendly staff. We worked with Stephanie as our wedding coordinator, and she was pretty much always very helpful in responding to my many, many questions as the bride. The only tiny negative part of our experience is when the videographer asked 2 weeks before the wedding for a run-down of all movements during the ceremony, and I asked Stephanie if she was the right person to ask. She told me that if I wanted assistance with this, I would need to hire a full wedding coordinator. I just wish I had known there was a difference at the beginning, to avoid confusion. But overall we had an amazing experience at this wedding venue. We are SO happy we got married here. It was an unforgettable experience. Note: we got the King and Queen thrones, the beer/wine bar, and the inside door flowers added on, and they far exceeded our expectations!

    Amazing experience!

    Castle McCulloch was such a beautiful venue, I would absolutely do it all over again! Paulette was great to work with and it was very easy to create what we wanted and work within a payment plan. The manager on site the night of the wedding was very friendly and worked well with the other vendors. The castle is a gorgeous backdrop for photos and an intimate setting for a smaller wedding. HIGHLY recommend!!

    Amazing, Perfect, Dream venue!

    You cannot go wrong with Castle McCulloch as your wedding venue! The staff is professional, responsive to emails/questions, and the facility itself it’s absolutely gorgeous! We loved this as our venue not just because the castle and grounds are gorgeous but it takes minimal decor to make your wedding a dream. Additionally the Castle’s preferred vendors are incredible...we had a dream team (Coordinating Dreams, Bennett’s Basket & Bows, DJ Paul Cordt, Magnolia Ridge Photography, Cakes by B and Culinary Visions Catering). They have worked at the castle numerous times and thoroughly enjoy working with each other and it showed as we had zero worries throughout our wedding. Our family and friends can’t stop raving about Castle MCulloch!

    Perfect! Magical! Loved this place!

    This place is magical. It's a castle!!! My wedding here was like a fairy tale wedding, it was everything I had imagined it to be and more. This venue is beautiful and oh so elegant. Our point of contact here was Paulette and she is great to work with. She really put in effort in making sure we had everything we wanted. The day of coordination by her staff was great too. Everything went smoothly. I literally do not have a single complaint. It was perfect!

    Amazing unique venue for a killer price!

    19 minutes ago-Edit
    We had our rehearsal dinner and wedding at Castle McCulloch in December 2019 and everything was beyond perfect! It was easy to contact the castle staff when planning, the venue was gorgeous, and everything was how we expected/planned! This was the perfect location for our small intimate wedding. Paulette was great at communicating quickly prior to our events, accommodating our last minute floor plan changes, and reassuring us that everything will be perfect. Our day of contacts (Stephanie for rehearsal dinner and Andrew for wedding) were both present for anything that was needed and quick to make any last minute accommodations. I would highly recommend Castle McCulloch to anyone looking for an amazing unique event venue!

    An Enchanted Evening

    Castle McCulloch was so easy to deal with and for such a great venue we felt the price was great. We especially appreciated being able have the additional 3hr time on a separate day for photographs. Everyone from the front office to the kitchen staff were so pleasant and helpful I was always confident that they cared deeply about our wedding being perfect for us.

    Malaysia Castle helped us make sure everything was in place for our wedding with everything from making sure the order of the people in the wedding party came down she was on point and very courteous while addressing any family concerns. Then she talk to manger for us about a communication issue, so she took it in her hands to accommodate each and every guest. She also helped with the wedding flow. Malaysia also remained positive while
    Under a lot of pressure and she should be recognized for her hard work and dedication.

    We would really like to thank Paul and Kellie who went beyond everything to make sure our wedding experience was everything that we could imagine and more. From rehearsal to the day of the wedding. They helped with the layout, the setting up and even helping on the timing of entering and pointed out the best places on the grounds for the best photos. We live in Florida and planned our wedding at the Castle without being able to go to the grounds to actually work with someone face to face they made everything flow smoothly. Thank you so much for everything that you two did for us and our families means so much to us. Paul and Kellie

    Wedding reception

    Everything was perfect, we reserved the Crystal Garden on a Thursday. Everything was clean and ready for use as the staff was supper friendly. The payment plan was extremely easy and took a lot of stress away.

    In planning an express timeline wedding in six months, we discovered a treasure. Castle McCulloch and the Crystal Garden is a historic site in the Triad that accommodates an incredibly BEAUTIFUL wedding reception. The venue and price goes unmatched for the wonderful experience. The well-oiled wedding machine that we encountered made every single detail a pleasure! The Castle manager Kellie is a superb representative to make all come together for the venue. The preferred vendors with Castle McCulloch that we chose were absolute professionals at the highest level and surpassed our wedding dreams.
    Taylor at Castle Catering is the tie that binds. She was our point of contact throughout the entire planning phase and she was the success of our wedding reception. I loved how she saw our vision and executed every element with elegance. Because of Taylor ‘s confidence and ability to guide, advise, and be an outstanding reference for our wedding, she will always be recalled as our guiding light! Yay, Taylor, we sincerely appreciate your professionalism and commend your tremendous talent in event planning!
    Hannah with Castle Catering finished the reception strong by making sure that the event flowed smoothly and even down to the last second as we wrapped up the event, Hannah was a champ! Let me discuss the Castle Catering wedding reception dinner… YUM, absolutely delicious! Kudos to Angie and Crew and all involved in creating the edible delights. Their servers, wait staff, bartenders(Mario) all made a great impression on our guests. As I write this, I am over the moon excited that Castle McCulloch and Castle Catering are the ultimate wedding professionals working together to make our wedding reception a lovely success. I also strongly recommend attending the Castle’s seasonal Eat, Drink, and Be Married Bridal Show Expo to meet the wondrous wedding vendors in person and see the Castle in it’s glory.
    I give a ten star rating to all! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
