    A Magical Day

    From start to finish, our experience with the Farmington Polo Club was an absolute delight. Working with Rhonda made the planning process a breeze. There was SO much I didn’t know about weddings and luckily Rhonda and the rest of my vendors came to our rescue to answer questions, quickly and efficiently.
    Now for the day of..
    OMG I don’t know where to start! The staff, the bartenders, the FOOD and the venue itself in all its newly renovated glory… absolutely amazing. Everyone who came to my wedding could NOT and has not stopped raving about the quality of the food and the service. I really could go on all day. I’m not someone who finds it easy to be pampered therefore I was trying to take care of myself all day, but the staff wouldn’t let me! Lol All of them made sure we were hydrated (which we NEEDED as it was almost 90 outside) and fed all night long. I joked with Zaimara, who was basically my attendent the whole wedding, that she was like my guardian angel all night. The staff was unmatched. What a perfect day.
    All this to say, if you’re thinking about the Polo Club— Book it. You will not be sorry.

    The most wonderful day

    In one word, perfection. Rhonda was simply amazing. She handled the planning process seamlessly and her experience was so valuable to a bride planning a wedding in 6 months! She answered every single one of my many questions with clear responses and excitement. Our wedding was delayed and she was very flexible with adjusting the timing of cocktail hour and dinner. Everyone commented on how amazing the food was, and I even ate it (rare for a bride) it was delicious! Della and Peter kept the flow of the wedding all night which was so calming as the bride to know the team was on top of every detail. The venue looked SPECTACULAR and our guests loved the patio with the fire place going all night. I cannot recommend this venue enough, thank you Farmington Polo Club!

    Farmington Polo Club's reply:

    Thank you very much Julie :) It was our pleasure to host your most special day. You had a party crowd which is our favorite type!! Looked like they all enjoyed themselves which is our mission here at the Farmington Polo Club. Best of luck to you and Pedro and I hope to see you here again :)

    Best,
    Rhonda

    Perfect venue at a great price

    This place is absolutely gorgeous and well worth the price. My wife and I live near Boston and a similar venue there would have been close to double the price. We received many compliments from our guests on the venue.

    My wife loved the bridal suite. Last, but not least, the venue manager (Rhonda) was one of the best people we worked with. She was flexible, down to Earth, and accommodating. In fact, we didn't even have an appointment when we saw the place for the first time.

    We highly recommend.

    We had such an amazing experience with The Farmington Club. Rhonda and the staff accommodated all of our crazy requests, while giving their professional opinion to make sure we had the best experience. Our guests LOVED the food and service from the bartenders and waitstaff. I wish we could do it all over again just so I could experience it again!

    The Farmington Club was a dream venue! Rhonda was so flexible and was able to accommodate all of my requests, even down to the last few days beforehand. We had our ceremony on site at the gazebo which was gorgeous, and our cocktail hour out on the patio with a fire going in the outdoor fireplace to take the little edge of a chill off the fall evening. We were also allowed to bring a few lawn games to play out on the patio which was a big hit with our guests. Inside the Club house room was set beautifully, the room has a silver cream and gray palette that was a blank canvas for my decorations- and the whole aesthetic was elegant without being stuffy. The food is always top notch and portions are over the top- nobody left hungry! Service as always is excellent, the only caveat is the bridal lounge is small so if you have a large wedding party be prepared for that. Again, everything was outstanding and if I could do it all over again I would book with Farmington Club in a heartbeat.

    The crew at the Farmington Club did a FABULOUS job for our wedding in June!! Everything was perfect and the food was amazing! Our guests haven't stop raving over how tasty everything was! We loved the nice variety of options and the consideration of food allergies among our guests. Both Della and Rhonda were so patient with us throughout the planning process. Highly recommend if you're looking for a beautiful venue, fantastic grounds, excellent food, and the expertise of the Aquaturf without having to compete with too many other events.

    Our wedding was in September and the grounds at the location were beautiful. The venue itself was great and the staff were very helpful. Everything went as planned, the staff were very helpful (including the maitre d' Rhonda). With all the guests to worry about, the ceremony, and the wedding photos - the Farmington club staff handled all other operations flawlessly.

    I cannot say enough great things about our wedding at The Farmington Club. The grounds were beautiful for our photos, the food and service were excellent! The main clubhouse room looked amazing and the staff did an amazing job taking care of all of our guests! We haven't talked to a single guest yet that had a complaint. The food and drinks were excellent and the staff were extremely professional. We had the perfect wedding reception there and would highly recommend!

    Thoroughly satisfied with the services of this venue. Their planners, servers and other staff helped us have the most amazing wedding ever. From start to finish the food, service and facilities were top notch. Six weeks later our friends and family are still raving about how great the food and “V Table” were. Thank you so much for making our day so special (and flawless)!

    They were absolutely amazing from beginning to end. The venue itself is stunning, the food was delicious and plentiful and Rhonda, the person I dealt with, was a pleasure to work with. After the event, I received many compliments on how beautiful the place was and how delicious and plentiful the food was. I would do another event there in a heartbeat!!

    The Farmington Club was excellent to work with! The facilities are exceptional! There are many beautiful spots for taking pictures. The Farmington Club was very flexible and accommodating. They were willing to work with me to make my wedding exactly how I envisioned it.

    From the time I arrived at the Farmington Club to the time I left the day of the wedding, I was taken care of very well. The staff was constantly checking in with me to make sure everything was going as planned. They made it so I didn't have to worry about anything!

    The food was amazing! My guests are still talking about the quality and quantity of the food. The filet mignon was excellent! The staff even went around with seconds for my guests.

    I would highly recommend the Farmington Club! They were professional, flexible, and amazing! Thanks for making my wedding day extra special!

    The Farmington Club is an excellent choice for any event you may have. We have held two of our daughters weddings there and have not had one complaint. The food was wonderful, the room and decor beautiful, and everything was organized and ran perfectly. It also is very reasonable for all they give you. They are so wonderful to work with and are accommodating to each and everyone's ideas. Everyone tells us that we throw the best "party" but it really is the Farmington Club that does. We highly recommend it!!

    I have nothing bad that I can say about this venue. Amazing is all that comes to mind. The food was great, the service outstanding. Rhonda treated us unbelievably. All of my guests raved about the food and atmosphere. Everyone loved it especially us. I would 1000% recommend this venue to everyone I know getting married.

    We looked many, many places and nothing compared to the professionalism , flexibility, value and peace of mind that we got working with Rhonda and Steve. The room was gorgeous, the grounds were perfect, and the food was amazing. They set up all our 'extras' (table numbers, favors, etc) perfectly. People are still talking about the dessert table!! We had a perfect wedding day - much in part to the work of the staff at the Farmington Club. 5+ stars!!!

    I had my wedding reception at the Farmington Club in April. When we first booked, they were open to our ideas with planning the menu. They were always available and willing to help out or answer questions throughout the wedding planning process. On the day of the wedding, the staff ensured that everything ran very smoothly. The room was beautiful! The prime rib was impressive! The chicken and baked stuffed shrimp were also delicious. Many guests commented on how impressed they were with the venue.

    The experience was magical. A beautiful evening wedding, grounds were picture perfect, staff were warm, friendly and went out of their way to please. The food was outstanding and was displayed so eligantly. Rhonda and her professional team were outstanding. They had every detail so perfectly displayed and the evening events flowed so smoothly. What a great team! I can not express my gratitude for all their efforts in creating this magical wedding day for both my daughter and her husband.
    The Farmington Club should be very proud of Rhonda and their team of skilled, talented individuals, who assist in creating great memories for families. I would recommend to anyone who is exploring options for a future up-coming wedding ceremony and reception venue to check out the Farmington Club! Feel free to contact me for any further information about our personal experience with our memorable wedding experience.

    The Farmington Club was fantastic! The facility inside and outside was perfect. We had our ceremony in the gazebo and our reception in the great room. It was super convenient for our guests as well.
    We worked with Rhonda. She was professional, warm, thorough, and very accommodating to our various needs. She also had a lovely sense of humor. She was there on our wedding day to make sure all of the details were in place.
    The maitre d, Steve, was fabulous! He guided us through every step of our function. He was super attentive to every detail which ensured a smooth wedding. He helped with everything, from pinning the bouttonnieres before the ceremony to taking the bride's bouquet as she began her first dance.
    We highly recommend The Farmington Club!

    The Farmington Club did a great job with our wedding. Our guests constantly commented on how smoothly everything went. The food was delicious, and the staff was very attentive. Everyone there made us feel at ease and were very warm and friendly. One of the best moments of the night was the dry ice that they use during our first dance. The entire floor was covered in a kind of fog. It looked like we were dancing on clouds. The guests LOVED it!

    Absolutely outstanding! We recently celebrated our wedding here and could not have been happier about our experience. The staff is incredibly professional, detail oriented, and very thoughtful. We enjoyed working with Rhonda and Barb throughout the planning process, and of course thank Dana for all his guidance in food selection! We have received countless compliments on the food - everyone was served at once, it was all hot and extremely well-plated. We used the smaller building, with the additional space for cocktail hour, and everything dressed up so nicely! THANK YOU to the Farmington Club for making our day truly perfect.

    We LOVED Rhonda! From the start, she was flexible and professional. She followed through on everything she promised and then some! She made accomidations for us to be able to set up our large, hand made ceremony decorations the weekend before our wedding. She assisted us in so many ways and really made our day flow. Her experience in the industry really shows and everything moved along like clockwork. Our guests commented on how delicious and abundant all of the food was. The train on my dress fell apart several times and there was Rhonda with a box of safety pins and a smile. She really was there for us every step of the way. It was the little and the big things like that, that truely made the difference. Richard, our Maitre d, was there for our every need as well. He kept us on time, made sure we didn't miss out on our Hors d'oeuvres and offered us food and beverages throughout the evening. We couldn't have been happier with the Farmington Club for our wedding and would highly recommend them for your special day or event.

    We had our wedding reception at the Farmington Club and they did an amazing job! Every single detail was done to perfection! All of the food was so good, and they even came around asking if people wanted seconds for their main entree. The room was perfectly decorated and made our pictures looked amazing! Great job to the staff at the Farmington Club for making our wedding reception the most beautiful ever!

    Every one of my guests had a blast! The Farmington Clubs picnic wedding had so much entertainment for my guests, it was perfect!

    The food was delicious and they even gave me a few extra things because I was on a budget.

    The staff was amazingly kind and the service was excellent.
