The Edison Ford Winter Estates was the perfect setting for my destination wedding. I had a wonderful experience working with the event team, Maisen and Lindsey. They were responsive, professional, and have meticulous attention to detail. Even though I was planning my day from the other side of the country, Maisen was always an email or phone call away-- I was never left with an unanswered question. My wedding had a lot of moving pieces-- 83 guests, live music, plated dinner, potential bad weather etc. I was able to truly enjoy the whole day, and didn't have to worry about a thing knowing that I have Maisen and Lindsey in my corner. Their hard work really shined, and I can confidently say that to me, it was a perfect day. Thank you!!
Edison & Ford Winter Estates's reply:
Aww Krista, you were such a beautiful and graceful bride! You and Raphael are such a wonderful couple, and we were so happy to be a part of your wedding day. Make sure to come back and visit the Estates soon!

Perfect Intimate Wedding Venue
Our wedding with 55 guests was held at sundown on the bank of the Caloosahatchee River at the Estates. The event staff coordinated all our vendors and made sure everything was in place and on time. They also stepped in for the florist who no-showed. Everything about the Estates added to the beauty of the wedding. The botanicals, the river, the sunset...it was magical!
Edison & Ford Winter Estates's reply:
Thank you so much for your kind words Leslie! It was such a beautiful December wedding. We can't wait to see you back at the Estates in the near future.

We LOVED everything about our wedding at Edison and Ford
Our wedding at the Edison and Ford Winter Estates was more perfect than we imagined! It would not have been possible without support from Edison and Ford's day-of coordinator, Maisen. We planned our wedding from out-of-state which can be a bit tough, but Maisen helped make it easy and was very approachable. She also worked with all of our vendors to ensure things ran smoothly. After Hurricane Ian, we didn't think we would be able to still have our wedding. Maisen was transparent with everything that was going on - we were very impressed with how Edison and Ford worked to make their facilities quickly operational. We are amazed and very fortunate that we still had our wedding despite the devastation, which we attribute to Edison and Ford - several guests have commented on how our wedding was one of the most beautiful they've been to. Lastly, on the day-of, Maisen was like an additional bridesmaid - she helped bustle my dress, drove us around in a golf cart to make sure we got photos in all the places we wanted, and acted as great moral support. We cannot say enough great things about having an event at Edison and Ford Winter Estates, & highly recommend this venue to anyone considering it!
Edison & Ford Winter Estates's reply:
Your wedding day was so special and full of love. We are so happy that we got the chance to be a part of it. Thank you for all your kind words. Come visit us again soon!

Fantastic rehearsal dinner
We had a rehearsal dinner (buffet) for 35 guest at the Edison Ford Museum. Our guests (adults, kids, engineers, and non-scientists alike) all really enjoyed looking at the exhibits in the museum and the backdrop of bougainvillea and bayon trees outside and Model Ts and historic phonographs inside, made for terrific photos.
The site event managers - Kelsi Toland and Cori Cramsey were always extremely responsive, answering emails and questions within a few hours! Most impressively, when the catering accidentally forgot half of the tables and linens for our guests (which we found out about 5 minutes before our guests were arriving!), the staff at Edison and Ford jumped into action and got us four additional tables and matching linens within 15 minutes. It was so quickly and flawlessly executed, and our guest were so engaged in the exhibits as they arrived, no one even found out and we could serve dinner on time!

Great wedding reception - venue and staff A+
Cori and Kelsi did a great job with our daughter's wedding. It was an outside reception in December when it rarely rains. However, we had some bad weather, but the team was able to seamlessly adjust and work through the rain. The Edison-Ford team was great to work with as they were very flexible and accommodating. The venue was beautiful.

Perfect Spot for Family Photos
We used the Edison Ford Estate for our family photos. The staff was quick to respond to all communication and made every aspect of this project a pleasure. The venue is the perfect spot for photos or a special event. It has true elegance with the perfect touch of Florida. We will definitely use The Edison & Ford Winter Estates for future events. My whole family commented how well everything was handled. We would like to thank Cori for her help and kindness.

Amazing team, beautiful venue
The Moonlight Garden is the perfect place for a small, intimate and romantic ceremony. From the first email I sent, Corinne provided exceptional customer service and made us feel like our wedding day was as important to her as it was to us. The day of, we had a lightning delay, and Corinne and the rest of the team were super attentive and made sure we made the best out of it. Our ceremony was simply perfect and I am so glad we chose this venue.

Photoshoot
Corrine was extremely professional and responsive during the set up stage. I had a friend, who is a photographer, visit from New York. He wanted to do a photoshoot of my daughters at the last minute. I was very appreciative that she was able to fit us in. I was not able to attend the photoshoot but the photographer and subjects were very pleased with the amazing settings of the Edison Ford Winter Estates and we have amazing photographs. The photographer was going to do his own review as well.

Perfection!
Our experience holding our wedding ceremony at the Edison & Ford Estates Moonlight Garden was amazing. The coordinator, Cori, was organized, compassionate, and very easy to communicate with. Rain was predicted up until the day of our wedding and during our rehearsal they made us feel really comfortable with the back-up venue. When things could have been incredibly stressful due to a number of changes to our wedding plans because of COVID-19 and the weather forecast they made us feel at ease. Beautiful venue, amazing photo locations on the grounds, and a great staff made our wedding day perfection!

We had our office Christmas party at the River Pavilion at Edison & Ford Winter Estates. It was beautifully decorated with lights and a Christmas tree.

COVID wedding
We planned to have Edison and Ford host our wedding ceremony in March. Gorgeous property, you got free access to the property for an Engagement shoot. Corrine always kept tabs to make sure everything was good, especially when COVID came out of nowhere. They were super flexible to accommodate no matter what we wanted to do. Unfortunately we ultimately decided to cancel our big wedding ceremony, but Corrine was so understanding and provided a full refund due to our situation. Great property and great people. We would’ve loved to actually have our ceremony there if we could have. But we can’t wait to do another photoshoot there in December while it’s decorated for Christmas!

Amazing Venue & Team
Edison & Ford (and especially Cori!) are amazing and made all my wedding dreams come true! Cori was super responsive and on top of everything, and even made time to check in with me to just see how I was feeling. The day of the wedding, some unexpected issues with other vendors came up and we unfortunately hired a wedding planner that didn’t really know what they were doing, but Cori swooped in to fix any issue as they came up. I honestly can’t say enough nice things about how thoughtful and professional the team at Edison & Ford are. The location is absolutely perfect. I’m almost sad the wedding is over because I don’t get to chat with Cori as much!

A Perfect Venue for our Perfect Day!
We are so happy with our decision to get married at the Edison and Ford Winter Estates! From beginning planning stages to the end of our reception, our experience was positive, fun and went very smoothly. I credit this mainly to their event manager Cori who was just amazing! She was professional, super friendly, quick to respond to questions, knowledgeable and helpful in every way possible.
The opportunities for photos on this site were endless and the sunset was breathtaking. We were marred under the giant Mysore Fig Tree, had cocktail hour on the pavilion and reception on the Ford Lawn. There's so many different options. Again, so happy with this venue and our experience and will forever be our favorite place in Southwest Florida.

The Edison Home was very accommodating in all our requests and needs. Very professional. The cost was minimal to what was available to us for use...full run of the property for the whole time and tickets for both daytime and Festival of Lights event at night for 11 people.
