Mary V. Sent on 11/10/2023Absolutely perfect park setting!
Robinswood House is the perfect setting for a Wedding, whether outdoors in the summer, or indoors in the winter. My daughter got married mid-August, and all the photography turned out absolutely stunning, mostly for the photo opportunities, ie; trails, buildings, wall hedge, gardens, flower baskets, and just the space in general. I found Joanna to be quite helpful with ideas, and worked with me on everything from the Bar service, to reaching out to other vendors regarding a Timeline etc. I thought the pricing was reasonable, considering there was ample parking, and the park-like setting. It was absolutely perfect for 100 or so guests, and can accomodate much more. I highly recommend this venue! -

Wedding Venue
We are so happy we picked Robinswood for our June wedding! We were already working on a contract with another venue but it was taking so long we thought we’d tour Robinswood, and after the tour, we both knew we had to have our wedding there! It was much less expensive, both charming and humble, and it was clear Joanna was super organized and would help with all the planning (and we were right – she and Mike did a great job asking the right questions and keeping us on track!).
The only thing about the venue that I’d known earlier was that only a certain number of people fit under the tents, if your wedding is during a time of year that might rain. We invited 170 guests and I wish we’d done more like 120 because it was very stressful trying to plan to squeeze everyone under that tent for dinner since unfortunately this spring lasted so long. It did work out and it was fabulous!
Another thing that is good to know is you won’t know your guaranteed rehearsal date until 30 days before. We made a few plans for anticipating possible times, since we couldn’t wait until a month before for family and wedding party to book flights. Since the venue is public during non-event hours, it is possible to rehearse on your own time as well, which is very convenient!
It is also good to be aware they have a list of caterers to pick from. We picked Twelve Baskets and they were amazing! Other things we liked about the venue is they provide tables, linen, arch, beer/wine and sound system, some décor, as well as a super hands on approach to planning, layouts and recommendations. Robinswood park is a beautiful place for photos, especially the forested areas.
Some more unique things we did were have live musician instead of DJ, set out lawn games and board games and played the Shoe Game instead of dancing, and have a popcorn bar and dessert time! Joanna helped coordinate for all of these, such as moving the ceremony setup out of the way for games. We didn’t feel like we had any big surprises on the day of because everything had been anticipated and planned for. And as you can see from the photos, everything looked magical!

Highly recommend getting married at Robinswood!
Robinswood House was the absolute best venue for our wedding and made all of my visions come to life. To start, the space is so stunning and full of so much natural greenery and flowers that we didn't feel the need to overly decorate. The house is also a great backdrop and a perfect place to get ready with spacious bridal and grooms suites. Joanna and Mike were incredibly helpful throughout the entire planning process and made sure that no small detail got overlooked. We heard from all of our guests how stunning the venue was and how well laid-out the venue was which was incredibly important to us and our guest experience. So grateful to have such wonderful memories from Robinswood House and would 100% recommend to any couple! -

Christina J. Sent on 10/22/2021The perfect wedding venue
I have nothing but good things to say about Robinswood House. It was the first venue we saw in-person, and we knew in the first 5 minutes of being there that it was everything we wanted in a venue - absolutely gorgeous, convenient location, and reasonably priced. Management was kind, professional, responsive, and well-organized from the day we booked until the day of our wedding.
Our original wedding date was in 2020, and we heard so many nightmare stories about other venues from other couples who had to postpone their wedding. And to be honest, it would have been understandable if the venue did drop some balls in the chaos that was 2020 and even 2021. Not Robinswood House and, specifically, Joanna. She was so kind, flexible and informative through the pandemic chaos. I cannot recommend this venue highly enough.
Oh, and side bonus - when there isn't a wedding on, the Robinswood House gardens are open as part of the park. Which means we can easily go back and enjoy that place and the memories it holds for us in the future. -

Sierra O. Sent on 08/17/2021Such a pleasure to work with!
This venue was perfect for our small intimate wedding. We were able to have our ceremony in the garden area and reception on the patios and everyone loved it. The trees made it very private and it was exactly what I envisioned! Joanna and Mike were also a pleasure to work with - very organized and professional to make sure everything went smoothly for our special day. -

Thank you for a fantastic experience
My husband and I had a truly wonderful experience with Joanna, and Robinswood. We planned our wedding quickly, and Joanna was so helpful guiding us. Day of, Joanna and her team made sure all of the big and little details were taken care of...right before the wedding she fixed my train, and made sure I had everything I needed. One of my family members, who is in the service industry, made sure to tell me how impressed she was with the beverage service...and she said she's hard to impress! Thank you for a easy and magical day! -

August Wedding
Joanna took care of every detail and question I had. Anything I couldn’t think of to ask she brought to my attention and did everything to make sure our day was perfect. She kept in consistent contact with me in the months leading up to the wedding and had good communication with my other vendors. I would recommend robinswood to any couple looking for a flawless summer wedding. -

Joanna and Mike were very punctual and flexible in helping us customize our wedding while staying in our budget. We had decided on Robinswood for many reasons, long before our wedding, because of the location for all of our guests, the flexibility of picking options for our event, the amount of room and spacing we needed for activities - e.g. lawn area for children's games during the dinner, house for greeting guests and staying warm on cooler evenings, room dancing, dining, and live musicians - and the amount of time needed for set up and take down. -

Elegant Bliss
We absolutely loved having our event at Robinswood! It was the picture-perfect venue that felt cozy, relaxing and elegant for our big day. The team was wonderful to work with, making sure we had what we needed leading up to and on the day of the event. -

Jordan T. Sent on 02/13/2020Stunning venue!
My review for Robinswood house is so long over due. Joanna is absolutely fantastic and was so responsive and helpful even when my questions had already been answered in previous emails. It's nice when you're overwhelmed to have a vendor walk you through it. The only thing I wished was different was their list of caterers. We chose Act 3 and they were great. But we really wanted a taco truck. Other than that the venue was gorgeous! So beautiful! I love that there was a playground next door because we had a lot of kids at our wedding and it was great for photos! -
