    Wonderful venue

    I could not be more pleased with choosing Golden Eagle as our Wedding Venue. Bruce and Madison are wonderful to work with and make everything go so smoothly. They are a full-service venue and have a gigantic bridal suite and mens suite for the bridal party to get ready in. I highly recommend this venue for your wedding!

    Wedding Day!

    The Golden Eagle Country Club was an amazing wedding venue! We thought the level of service, quality of food and constant communication helped make the ceremony and reception run smoothly and was absolutely beautiful. We loved the fact GECC is a full service venue and had everything we needed for my daughter's wedding (destination wedding). The Christmas decorations and festive ambiance really enhanced our December wedding! Madison, who was our on site contact after we booked, was very detailed, organized and kind! I appreciated her guidance, professionalism & worked tirelessly to make sure the day was perfection! Bruce, the manager, was spot on in helping us with budget, which my husband appreciated! We had the full use of the grounds and venue on our day! The outside manicured grounds and pergola, (ceremony) and veranda (cocktail hour) are stunningly beautiful.
    I highly recommend Golden Eagle Country Club!

    Golden Eagle Country Club's reply:

    Deb, you deserve a round of applause as well for being AMAZING to work with! We were so happy to work with you and your family. You all were gracious, patient, and understanding with the small adaptions we had to make. I wish Maddie and Ethan a happy and healthy marriage and a wonderful new years to you and Mr. Kelley!

    Absolute Perfection

    Golden Eagle was the best choice the new husband and I could have ever made for our wedding. Jessica, Bruce, chef, and the rest of the staff were things of dreams and the best wedding “gift” ever. Jessica was very attentive to every need and helped me work through so many details. I hired her for her day of services as well which meant I had to do nothing except bring her our personalized items. The ceremony, to happy hour(cocktail hour), to reception was seamless and fun for the guests. Any question I had Jessica had an answer. Any request we found a solution. They were beyond accommodating and helpful. I simply cannot recommend them enough! Book your wedding here and you will not regret it! The highest paid complement I got was how many people commented on how “stress free” I looked. It’s becahse I had golden eagle to stress for me!

    For pricing they were beyond the best priced for what you got. The venue cost included all set up and break down. It also includes all tables, linens, table top items, chairs, ceremony space, getting ready space, and more. The price of the food was very reasonable for what you got. Comparible if not cheaper than hiring a caterer. They don’t charge extra for cake cutting like many. Actually, they don’t have any hidden fees. They are very forth coming with everything. We also had our rehearsal dinner here which was amazing and amazing priced.
    Just perfect priced all the way around.

    Golden Eagle Country Club's reply:

    Hi Terri!!

Please make sure you come back to Golden Eagle for dinner on your anniversary!! We would love to see you guys again!! Have a wonderful honeymoon!! Bruce Sellers

    We were extremely pleased with our selection of GECC as the venue for both our wedding ceremony and reception. We evaluated and toured several other locations and after meeting with Jessica Brannock, we knew GECC would meet all of our requirements. Jessica's enthusiasm, delightful personality and positive attitude had a lot to do with why we chose GECC. Also, their ability to have a beautiful outdoor ceremony overlooking the water that could be moved inside as late as the day of the wedding was very comforting and reassuring. The option to have a food tasting prior to the wedding was also much appreciated. The Chef was very accommodating and helped us select the perfect menu for our special guests. Throughout the planning, Jessica was extremely attentive and quick to respond to our various request and offered positive solutions. We were so impressed with Jessica we decided to hire her as our Day Coordinator so we had seamless transition to Bianca and her team on our wedding day. Bianca was also very courteous, resourceful and accommodating to our requests throughout our special day and well into the night. The quality of service and professionalism met all of our expectations and we recommend this venue for your wedding. Brian and Jaren Webb

    I first have to say a big huge "Thank you" to Jessica who from day one took care of us. She is so sweet and understanding. She is an absolute gem. She answered all questions and brought my level of stress to practically none. She definitely knows what she is doing. Not sure how I would have been to handle all this without her. She is very professional and caring! All this with a big smile! The place is absolutely beautiful and the wedding was all in all perfect! The food was delicious and all the staff was excellent. I also have to mention Bianca who was there for us the day of the reception. She did a fantastic job! Thank you all for making this day so very special! I even got a big hug from my daughter at the end of the day and said "thank you mommy! It was all perfect" Thanks to Jessica and her crew!

    Golden Eagle is a beautiful venue, but what really makes it worth every penny is Michelle! She was so 100% on top of everything leading up to and the day of our wedding, we were truly able to relax and enjoy the day. She was very responsive to my tons of emails and was so unbelievably calm that we knew if by some chance she saw something she hadn't seen before, she'd handle it without us even knowing! The view over the lake at sunset is like no other, our photographers got some truly amazing photos - getting married at Golden Eagle was one of the best decisions we made, you will not be disappointed!

    Golden Eagle Country Club's reply:

    Thank you for the lovely review, Victoria! I loved working with you and Ryan, too! You're an amazing couple and I know the two of you will be SUPER happy together! Michelle :)

    Thank you Michelle Griggs!!
    We had the most magical wedding day.
    Golden Eagle is a beautiful location for a wedding. It is also very convenient and stress free. We hired Michelle to coordinate our day and it could't have gone more perfectly. Everything was so beautiful. The food was great and we had loads of fun.
    Michelle always answered all my questions promptly, she took all the stress out of our big day so we could just relax and enjoy it.
    I highly recommend Golden Eagle to anyone searching for their perfect wedding location.

    Golden Eagle Country Club's reply:

    Thank you, Sarah, for the wonderful review! I loved working with you and Omid on your wedding and am so happy that everything turned out perfectly on your wedding day! Yes, your wedding truly was magical! I know the two of you will be blissfully happy! Michelle

The venue is pretty inclusive making costs overall very low compared to other venues in the area! I would highly recommend them!

    We had our rehearsal dinner (5/30/2914- not able to change date due to wedding wire rules) in the 'plantation room' hosted by my in laws. We had a wonderful time, food and service were great- BBQ chicken was some of the moistest I've had ever. We had a couple changes to the buffet due to dietary restrictions/preferences- we had no issues or push back by the venue. Michelle G. was awesome to work with, was responsive to communication and was very helpful. We made these plans from another city and hadn't actually seen the facility and it worked out great. The grounds were very pretty, we were able to see the sunset over the lake, great for pictures. We would recommend the facility to anyone.

    Michelle Griggs is the best thing that Golden Eagle Country Club ever did! She is amazing and is worth every penny spent at this venue! She makes sure everything is set up and ready to go. I am a bit of a control freak and for me to trust someone with all the ins and outs of my wedding means A LOT and I had complete trust in Michelle. We communicated back and forth many times and she always called me right back or responded to emails right away.

    Golden Eagle Country Club's reply:

    Wow, Casey! Thank you SO much for this wonderful review! You and your Mom were great to work with, too! I'm so glad I was able to be such a big help to you on your day! That means a lot to me, too!

    My husband and I looked at many places, but we couldn't find a venue that we felt was right for us. One of my husbands colleagues suggested the Golden Eagle Country Club. We went for a visit and we were immediately impressed. The site was absolutely gorgeous and the coordinator Michelle was able to answer every question we had. Ben and I knew after we left that would be the perfect place for our wedding. We also hired Michelle as our coordinator. It was such a blessing to work with someone as on top of things as Michelle. She also helped save us several hundred dollars by letting us use her cake stand, candleholders, and many othe miscellaneous items. The day of the wedding went just perfectly. It was so nice to have to not worry about doing any setting up or cleaning up. It took a huge load of Ben and I and our families. The food was excellent. We have received multiple comments from people about how impressed they were with food. I would definitely recommend Golden Eagle Country Club and Michelle Griggs to anyone I know that is getting married or having an event!

    Golden Eagle Country Club's reply:

    Thank you for the wonderful review, Laura! I SO enjoyed working with you, Ben and both of your families! Everyone was so kind and gracious and it was my pleasure helping to make your wedding day perfect! Many blessings to you and Ben!

    Where do I even begin? Our wedding was last Saturday, but we booked the venue about 10 months ago, last December. In addition to the venue itself (which included outdoor ceremony, indoor reception, food and bar) we hired the facility's wedding coordinator, Michelle. Throughout the months leading up to the wedding, Michelle was always so helpful - responding very promptly to our e-mails, answering all of our questions and helping us find the other vendors we needed.

    On the day, Michelle went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. A bride has so much on her mind on her wedding day, as well as the months leading up to it, and it was priceless to have a coordinator who was so on top of everything. She was super-organized and focused and I don't know how she did it, but she made our event run like clockwork.

    As for other aspects of the venue, there are so many great things I have to say. As to not let this review get too long, I'll run through a few briefly: Venue comes with beautiful pergola overlooking the lake, spacious green lawn and foliage, rolling hills... dining room is tastefully decorated and elegant. Lovely and comfortable dressing space for the bride and her party... DELICIOUS FOOD!!! There really was a lot included for a very decent price! The menu gives you a lot to choose from and their chef, Charles Di Bella, is fantastic, willing to work with our guests that had special food requirements.

    Golden Eagle has hosted countless weddings and it is very clear that they have perfected the art of running a smooth, beautiful event.

    Golden Eagle Country Club's reply:

    Thank you, Efia, for the wonderful review! It was my absolute privilege to work with you and Jason on your lovely wedding.

    I know you and Jason will be deliriously happy and if there's ever ANYTHING I can do for you, please let me know!

    I had a friend recommend this venue and I would definitely recommend it especially if you want an outside ceremony and inside reception at the same venue. The outside area with the pergola and white chairs was beautiful. We were lucky to have beautiful weather the day of the wedding BUT if necessary, they can move the ceremony inside if the weather takes a turn for the worst. That was one of our worst fears in having an outside ceremony. It was nice to have an air-conditioned space for the reception with the beautiful outside area for overflow.

    We also hired Michelle Griggs as the wedding coordinator for the rehearsal the night before and the day of the wedding. Best decision we made. She made sure everything was as we had planned and we knew if anything needed to be done, she would take care of it. She was so easy to work with and knows how things work there. Yes, she does indeed have extra "stuff" you may want to use. We loved working with her.

    We met with Charlie, the Chef, several times for tastings. He was extremely attentive to how we wanted things to look and taste. Also, very easy to work with, and certainly wanted us to be pleased with the food he provided and how it was presented. We had a buffet and all the food was great. We couldn't have been more pleased.

    We provided - Michelle implemented - more lighting outside which we loved and couldn't have accomplished without her.
    My suggestion to Golden Eagle is to add some up-lighting on the beautiful trees and some other outside lighting. Maybe they have done that by now.

    We also had a small display of fireworks that was on my daughter's "must have" list.

    We were extremely pleased with this venue and staff.

    My husband and I cannot say enough great things about Golden Eagle. Michelle runs the show over there and she is phenomenal. She makes everything so easy and does all of the planning for you. When we first toured the place she went over every detail and gave us tons of ideas of things she has seen in the past. They have done a ton of weddings and it shows….they have ever single detail perfectly planned. They do the food, drinks (offer kegs & bottles of wine which makes the price affordable), all the tables, chairs, linens, dance floor and had several decorations available for us. We did the dinner buffet with pecan chicken and London broil and it was delicious. The food was awesome and everything was on time and hot. All of the staff was very helpful and the grounds are absolutely beautiful. We had some awesome pictures taken in front of the lake. Our wedding was for 125 people and we definitely could have fit plenty more. Trust me if you go with Golden Eagle half of your stress will immediately go away since they do it all for you. My husband and I would definitely recommend them to anyone!

    Michelle will put your mind at ease. She has a game plan for everything. You have no worries. My wedding went so smoothly because of her. I recommend you use her as your planner also. She is worth every penny!

    The food was perfect. The appetizers were beautifully displayed. We had a sit down dinner for 160 people. The food was hot and delicious. The portions were huge.

    This is a must use place for your wedding ceremony and reception!! The grounds are absolutely breath-taking. I couldn't of asked for more. The food and kitchen staff were amazing! The only negative thing I can say is there was a wedding at 11am the same day as mine so it was somewhat disorganized when we came to set up at the time we were told. Not a huge deal though!

    Michelle was amazing. She met with us several times and was willing to do whatever she could to make our wedding day special. I showed up for the rehearsal dinner, and everything was done and set for me for the next day. Her staff was very helpful and the food was to die for. Great location!

    We couldn't have selected a better venue for our ceremony and reception! We were more than satisfied with how everything turned out. One of the best things about Golden Eagle was the convenience of having a "one stop shop". The tables, chairs, linens, china, etc. were all included and gave us more bang for our buck and eliminated the need for multiple vendors which made it easier on us and cheaper by comparison. Michelle was wonderful to work with as well as all the staff at Golden Eagle. Everyone was more than accommodating!
