    The Historic Dubsdread Ballroom went above and beyond!!!

    My husband and I recently got married at The Historic Dubsdread Ballroom (November 2023) and it exceeded our expectations and more! From the tour to the tasting to our planning meetings (and any questions we had in between) they were always so responsive, helpful and a dream to work with. You can trust that The Historic Dubsdread Ballroom and their staff know how to smoothly run an event. They provided us with a day of coordinator (David) who was AMAZING! We cannot say enough good things about David. He truly works his tail off to make sure every detail is exactly the way you want it. We had a Butler throughout the whole night (Tony) who was also AMAZING. He has the BEST energy and was always there to make sure our drinks were full while we were busy mingling with our guests. He knew exactly what we needed before we could even ask! Our bridesmaids, groomsmen, and guests are still talking about how perfect the evening was and we are so glad we chose The Historic Dubsdread Ballroom for our special day.

    Perfect Experience

    The whole process with the Dubsdread team was wonderful. From our first tour tour to the wedding day, they were helpful and professional. David was great to work with- walked us through the whole process and he or another team member was always quick to answer our questions. Juan was also great on the wedding day. He was very attentive and under the radar, making sure we had everything we needed before we even knew we needed it. The venue was beautiful and it was so easy to have everything come from one place. The holiday decor up during our event was simple and elegant. A weekday wedding made it affordable for us, and we are so glad it did- exactly what we wanted!

    Perfect option for an all-in-one Wedding Venue!!!

    We immediately fell in love with Historic Dubsdread Ballroom after our first tour in October of 2020 and booked it right away. We just got married on 12/11/21 & everything went so incredibly smooth. David was our coordinator that worked with us throughout our wedding planning and was there on the day of. He just made it so easy helping with the flow of our entire wedding day we can't thank him enough, he's the absolute best!!! We got great comments on our food options of the beef tenderloin and the almond chicken, both were our top 2 choices and they were so delicious! We had a beautiful night here for our wedding & appreciate every one at Dubsdread for helping to make our guests happy throughout the night!!! :)

    Perfect Venue for Rustic Charm

    The venue was gorgeous and comfortable with plenty of room for our guests to spread out and have fun. The staff was efficient, kind, courteous, and we felt that each of them personally cared about making sure our wedding day went well.

    Wonderful venue, wonderful employees!!

    Beautiful venue, incredible food, and above and beyond service! We are so glad we found Dubsdread. It had everything we were looking for. Most venues you have to bring in everything but there is so much ready and available on location. It really makes for an easy planning experience. The ballroom and outdoor areas are both beautiful and allow for stunning pictures but also allows for minimal decorations because it’s so unique and beautiful on its own. Big shout out to David (our coordinator) and Bob (our designated server) for going above and beyond and saving the day by finding my misplaced family heirloom just before I walked down the aisle! We had such great service throughout the day and everything ran so smoothly. You can’t go wrong with this venue for your special day.

    Absolutely perfect!

    We were able to have our Dream wedding at this venue. The staff there are amazing and make the day so easy for you. Everything was on time. The food was on point every guess loved it and is still talking about it. Can't say thank you enough to David arranged and took care of everything to make it a stress-free day. Planning was easy and the coordinators are very available for questions and concerns.

    A Dream Come True Wedding Venue

    From the very first moment we stepped foot in The Historic Dubsdread Ballroom on our venue tour, we knew that it was going to be the place we would get married! We walked in with a thousand questions and we left with every single one of them answered plus answers we didn't even know we needed. This is all due to the amazing staff at Dubsdread, specifically our amazing coordinator Emma. Even if it was late at night, our emails were answered super quick and the stress of planning went away whenever we talked. One thing about planning a wedding is the stress of family expecting you to know exactly what you want for every detail, but when it came to sitting down with Emma, those problems were nonexistent. When we didn't know what we wanted, Emma was there with multiple great options. We loved having our rehearsal dinner at The Tap Room at Dubsdread and it made the whole process so enjoyable for everyone involved. When people talk about how good the food is, they are not lying. We still have guests raving about the meal and cocktail hour. Having a "butler" on the day of sounded extravagant, but it truly is a blessing in disguise. Jose was right there for every moment asking if we were okay or needed anything, and it didn't stop with the bride and groom as he helped out our parents as well. Looking back on our special day, we both cannot imagine it without Historic Dubsdread Ballroom! It truly is a dream come true location and a setting where special moments in life are meant to start!

    Most Amazing Experience!

    Couldn’t imagine getting married any where else!

    -The venue itself is stunning! We met in Louisiana and loved how the Spanish moss on the trees in the courtyard reminded us of home. The ballroom is dark and romantic but not too dark, with a perfect balance of rustic and elegant vibes.

    -The food is MOUTH WATERING! When we hired our other vendors/professionals, they got so excited when they heard we were using Dubsdread because they love the food! They even gave us recommendations on their favorites. Thankfully they also have a restaurant (the Tap Room) so we can continue to eat there!

    -David was FANTASTIC! As someone who is constantly worrying about small details and every little thing, I was so relieved that I didn’t have to do any of that because David had everything under control. Our day ran so smoothly and was so fun and it was all thanks to David!

    -Pricing was very reasonable. They offer several different ceremony/catering packages to choose from so they can make pretty much any budget work! Shanna was extremely helpful with explaining all of this to us at the very beginning.

    For us, the venue was pretty much THE most important thing and we could not have dreamed of a better venue. Dubsdread checked all of our boxes and then went above and beyond our expectations on our actual wedding day. I’d give 10 stars if I could!

    Classy and Beautiful

    Wonderful classy and beautiful venue. What sold it the most was how well everything is run and thought out. The catering is also part of the venue reservation and the food is exquisite. David was our coordinator and he is clearly an experienced professional. He knows all the ins and outs of a wedding ceremony/reception. The staff are all courteous and professional. They also provide the wedding party with their own butler who tends to your every need. I can not recommend them enough!

    Wish we could go back and do it all over again!

    I don't even know where to begin! How can I say enough good things about Dubsdread? From beginning to end, the experience we had was incredible. From the very beginning of the planning process, we were met with such a welcoming feel from all the staff. After touring the venue, we immediately knew that this was where we wanted to have our big day. From the gorgeous outdoor ceremony courtyard right off the golf course with big, beautiful trees and cafe lights, to the indoor reception area with the rustic wooden beams and fireplace, the venue itself is breathtaking. We were paired with coordinator David who was wonderful from day one with not only communication but also making my husband and I feel at ease through the entire process. David was prompt with his responses and was always available when I had questions or ideas. Our original wedding date was in April, but due to Covid-19, we unfortunately had to postpone. The day we found out we reached out to David and he made the process effortless, even in such uncharted territories. We were able to postpone to a new date within a few hours. On the day of the wedding, David and the staff made us feel like royalty. We had our own personal butler, Juan, who waited on us hand and feet. Every time I turned around he had my drink of choice and food (which was wonderful for a bride who has enough to worry about and needs to eat!). Speaking of food, our friends and family are still raving about dinner! We did buffet style that included parmesan crusted chicken, salmon and a pasta bar. My entire day was stress free because I knew David and his team had it under control at all times. If I could give Dubsdread more stars I would. If you are comparing venues, take this as your sign. Dubsdread gave us the best day of our lives and we will forever cherish how beautiful it was.

    The best venue!

    My husband and I got married at Dubsdread in July 2020, during the pandemic, and we could not have been more pleased with our experience! The venue is naturally so beautiful and David, or coordinator, was incredible! Our guests were talking about the food and service a full week after the event, and they took so many precautions to keep all of our guests healthy and safe. Jose, the bridal party server was everywhere we turned. All in all, we are SO pleased with our experience and highly recommend the venue/staff for any wedding!

    Beautiful!

    It was so amazing to have my wedding at Dubsdread! It was so beautiful and all my guests loved it! The staff was absolutely fantastic as well! They were so responsive and helpful even in the beginning prior to booking. David was my wedding coordinator and I can’t thank him enough! He was really helpful and patient with me as I can be indecisive, and definitely part of the reason we had such a wonderful day! Ramon was our butler and he went above and beyond! It was a super windy day and he was amazing at helping with my train and chapel length veil. Everyone was so much fun to work with and the food was amazing!

    Perfect Day!

    Our wedding at Dubsdread was absolutely perfect!! We did not have to stress one bit the whole wedding weekend. After dropping all of the decorations off at our rehearsal, David and his team took care of absolutely everything! They kept every single part of the night right on schedule. Everyone commented all night how amazing the service was and how amazing the food was. We had filet Mignon and almond chicken and everyone said it was steakhouse quality and that even the vegetarian option was delicious! My groom and I are really were taken such good care of by Bobby who kept our drinks full all night, made sure we got to eat all of the great apps and food, and helped me with my dress, flowers, etc. It truly was the best day ever and the staff at Dubsdread made everything go smoother than I could have hoped for!

    Beautiful venue with outstanding customer service!

    Everything about this venue is amazing. The staff, the food, the amenities provided, and everything in between. One of my favorite things they provided was a group tasting where you can request food items you would like to try and experience the food like a guest would. AMAZING. DELICIOUS. They also had a long sit down meeting with us two weeks out to go over all of the details - big and small. David was our day of coordinator and you can tell he has been doing this for a long time. He made sure everything went smoothly and if anything went wrong I didn't know about it! David was quick to respond to emails or phone calls when I had questions about absolutely anything. I didn't have to worry about a thing the day of our wedding and we were able to bring all of our decorations the day before at the rehearsal. We had Juan as our personal butler and he was SO prepared. Started to rain and he appeared with an umbrella. Saw me without a drink and he appeared with a glass of prosecco. He brought us the appetizers after our ceremony, made us plates of food during our reception, and made sure we got dessert and the late night snack. Customer service was outstanding. They think of everything! Not to mention the venue is GORGEOUS! Beautiful oak trees with string lights for the ceremony and the interior was equally as beautiful. The woodwork, stone fireplace, a gorgeous chandelier. Seriously. Everything was amazing. I don't have a single bad thing to say about Dubsdread.

    Wedding of Our Dreams!!

    We cannot say enough about the amazing staff and venue at Dubsdread! We absolutely loved having our wedding here! Our coordinator David was incredibly professional, accommodating, and easy to work with. He made sure we had anything and everything we needed and wanted for our big day! He is truly a magician behind the scenes! Thank you David!! The venue is stunning! Living in Florida it is always a chance that you may see rain on your wedding day but with their indoor reception hall and cocktail room that isn’t a worry! We received so many compliments on the space as well as the amazing food!! With in-house catering it made the entire planning process so easy. Our wedding was everything we wanted and more! If I could do it all over again, I would still choose Dubsdread in a heartbeat.

    Historic Dubsdread is #1!

    Where to start with Dubsdread? They absolutely rocked it! At first, I was hesitant to go with this venue, only because I was trying to keep cost down, etc. Because of the help of my parents, their insistence, and the overall look and feel of the place, we went ahead and booked with them. It was worth every penny to have our ceremony and reception here. We had absolutely no worries the day of the wedding. Zero! We both enjoyed ourselves to the fullest. We ate, we drank, we danced! The venue provided guidance with multiple meetings, and amazing responsiveness through email. Every time I emailed, I felt like such a bother, but they never made me feel that way. Super quick to reply back, and always with great answers. David was our assigned event coordinator. What a huge value he is to the venue! He has years of experience, he is so knowledgeable, pragmatic, and somehow he is able to clone himself the day of the venue and be everywhere at once. Amazing guy, with a lovey personality and such an easy going spirit. There is one thing I did to make sure the process was smooth...when I turned in my decorations, I made sure to box everything up by room/area, and place clear and concise directions for them. There were no questions as to where anything went. And honestly, the place is so beautiful, you will not need to decorate too much. They will work with you any ideas. For us, we had Darth Vader show up at the end of our ceremony in an attempt to thwart the party. He was blasted away with a Nerf gun! Also, Bob, our assigned butler. What a gem!! Another great value to the venue. He made sure we were hydrated, fed, and overall in a good state of mind. He has a lovely sense of humor, and is also very experienced with his job. The food was amazing...wish I could have eaten more, lol. They give you doggie bags to take with you at the end of the night (food and cake). It really was a wonderful day for the both of us. Every time I think back to our day, I smile at all the great memories that were made. I could go on and on about how wonderful all the staff at Dubsdread performed that day. Thank you again for providing us with such a special day. Without any doubt, I highly recommend you choose Historic Dubsdread as your wedding venue.

    The best day of our lives!

    We cannot recommend Dubsdread enough for your special day! From the very first tour of the venue to our wedding day, we had the best experience! David was our day-of coordinator. We requested him because a friend of mine highly recommended him but we had no idea how far above and beyond he would go to make our day so special. David was a life saver for us! Our head table server, Bob, was the absolute best! He was always there to make sure we had everything we needed throughout the night and we are so grateful to have had him. THANK YOU to David and the entire staff at Dubsdread for helping to make the best day of our lives so special!
