    The most AMAZING Venue in NEO!

    The Whetstone is the most beautiful, elegant and fairly priced wedding venue my husband and I came across, not only did we receive the most amazing service from the Coordinator Makenzie, who is by far the most down to Earth, kind hearted person I have ever met! We utilized all three buildings that The Whetstone offers, 1 to get ready in, 1 to get married in and of course one to have our reception in! All three were so beautifully kept and the perfect amount of space! The Reception area is so accommodating with the huge kitchen space for our vendor and a separate bar area, allowing our guests to not feel stuck in one room! The scenery outside is breathtaking, so many opportunities to get pictures that you will cherish for a lifetime! If I did one thing right is was using The Whetstone to host one of the most special days of my life!

    The perfect venue!

    I first came across this venue 4 years ago when we first got engaged and fell instantly in love. Hannah was so easy to get along with and answered all of our questions(so sad she is leaving!) from the very start of our start to the day of wedding we had butterflies in our stomachs about this venue. The beauty that you get from the venue it’s self to the different spots for photos or having a moment with your spouse after i do, they offer it! A billion and one times I would choose this venue again! If you want to find a venue that allows you to do that. Pick this venue. We can’t wait to have many celebrations here in the future ♥️

    The Perfect Venue for your Special Day!!!

    My husband and I got married at the Whetstone Center on 9.23.2022!!! This venue was the first and only venue we looked at, we fell in love instantly with the beautiful scenery!! Hannah, the event coordinator that we worked with was so professional and helpful throughout our entire planning process. I feel like I had a handful of questions every other week, and they were answered almost immediately. was able to tour the venue a few times after booking to get a feel for how and where I wanted decorations. The venue itself was so gorgeous that I didn't have to do too much!
    The kitchen was so spacious, PERFECT for our buffet style dinner! loved the fact that we had planning freedom, such as choosing our own vendors, providing our own alcohol and different options on where to hold our ceremony! The reception hall fit our 115ish guests very comfortably. I have had many of our guests reach out to me about how spacious and beautiful the venue was!! I loved that there were a handful of outdoor spots for our guests to mingle as well!

    We were/are so blown away with how perfect our ceremony and reception went, and that is thanks to Hannah, Mackenzie and the staff at the Whetstone Center! I will keep this venue in mind for any and all life events due to our amazing experience.

    We LOVED the Whetstone Center for our winter wedding!!


    The Whetstone Center was the perfect fit for our winter wedding! The moment I walked into the venue, I knew it was exactly what I was looking for; The beautiful wall of windows with the water view was breathtaking! The venue is a blank slate to make it your absolute dream wedding! You can also get in the day before to decorate if you book the whole weekend which was a must for me! We also held our rehearsal dinner here as well. Hannah was a breath of fresh air in all of the wedding planning, she was so prompt and professional! I highly recommend the Whetstone Center for your wedding or parties!

    Whetstone Center's reply:

    Wow Savanna! Thank you SO much. This truly means a lot and I am so glad you enjoyed your time at Whetstone. You were great to work with as well and am so happy for you and Jack. :)

    MIHOAN 6/18/2021

    My husband and I celebrated our wedding at the Whetstone center in June and we couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful space to host it at! We knew even before touring Whetstone that it was our dream venue. Immediately drawn in by the stunning lakefront views from the reception area featuring a wall of bay windows, and the ceremony space with the pergola overlooking the water was perfect! We went with a love on the lake theme so it was everything we needed! Not to mention the added perk of renting a pontoon boat ride! Hannah Fisher, their event coordinator, was so sweet and helpful throughout the whole process. While planning tours and meetings she was very responsive and always accommodating to our schedules. From table setup to cleanup their team was amazing and definitely relieved us of some wedding day stresses. When choosing a venue no other space seemed to fit all of our needs at our budget. Whetstone met every expectation and more! Their pricing packages are very reasonable, we opted for a Friday wedding with Thursday setup which was perfect for us. We even had the option to chose our own caterer. One of our favorite things about Whetstone is how much beauty surrounds the property, a hidden gem for sure! The gorgeous lakefront, green vineyards and open fields, your wedding photos will look absolutely beautiful! If you’re thinking of booking with Whetstone, do not hesitate! We absolutely love their venue and would recommend them to anyone for any occasion!

    Whetstone Vow Renewal

    We had our vow renewal at the Whetstone Center on 9/11/21. The venue was absolutely spectacular. Their wedding coordinator was professional and the venue was clean and ready for our party. The views are amazing. They had ample space for my bridal party. When our guests arrived they loved the space and the boat rides. We had the best time and everything was beyond our expectation. We would definitely book with the Whetstone Center again.

    Whetstone Center's reply:

    Thank you so much for the review Alliyha! I am so happy you loved having your wedding at Whetstone! :) You guys were great to work with.

    Picturesque scenery and amazing venue

    I came across The Whetstone Center randomly and was instantly attracted to the pictures of the venue. I had always wanted an outdoor ceremony and I loved the space they had. The Whetstone has gorgeous scenery for a photographer's dream. loved having our ceremony and reception all at the same venue. Hannah was so wonderful to work with and was very prompt with responding or answering questions. She was so helpful with making sure our tables and chairs were set up to how we wanted them. Rent the pontoon as I know a lot of my guests enjoyed that during cocktail hour. loved having the outside area at the reception and also a fire pit for late night smores. The Whetstone was more than I could have imagined and was a great place for our ceremony and reception.

    Whetstone Center's reply:

    Thank you so much for the review Jen! We loved having you guys out here and are so glad you enjoyed your day! :)

    Wedding Day

    We are so happy we found this place and everyone called it a hidden gem. They have great picture locations, offer pontoon rides, have a reception hall and more. We had our wedding and reception here. So glad we were able to have our wedding at this adorable venue!

    Whetstone Center's reply:

    THANK YOU! We loved the theme for your wedding! Everything turned out so nicely. :) So happy for you and Bryan!

    Everything we wanted and more!

    My husband and I got married at the Whetstone Center a couple weeks ago and we absolutely LOVED the venue. The venue is reasonably priced for all the different, totally gorgeous nature views it has to offer and Hannah was always a call or text away if we had any questions. The venue has so many beautiful areas for pictures- the river, a vineyard, fields, farm views. It’s absolutely beautiful. We were looking for a venue where we could customize our wedding to how we wanted it, and the Whetstone provided that. They also allow dogs, not just at the ceremony but the reception as well! Thank you, Hannah for helping us make our wedding day special and memorable!

    Whetstone Center's reply:

    Thank you so much for your awesome review Christina! We LOVED having you and Josh at Whetstone and seeing all your beautiful photos! :)

    Amazing, amazing, amazing!

    I'm over the moon (and so were our guests) with Whetstone Center for our wedding! The venue is seriously a hidden gem. Hannah was amazing to work with, especially when the bridal stress started to kick in! Thank you SO SO SO much for everything you have done for us and for giving us and our guests a night to remember! :) PS, if you're looking to book and can't decide on the boat ride, DO IT!

    Whetstone Center's reply:

    Thank you, Jenna! You guys were awesome to work with and an adorable couple! SO happy you decided to rent the boat and had a blast. :)

    Great Venue!

    We had our summer wedding here this past year and Whetstone was the perfect venue! We loved the option of indoor or outdoor ceremony and the overall venue layout was unique and intimate. Our guests enjoyed the boat rides and we got the best sunset boat pictures. Pictures by the vineyard also turned out amazing. We were planning our wedding from out-of-state and Hannah was very accommodating and helpful. Would highly recommend this venue.

    Whetstone Center's reply:

    Thanks for the review Jonathan! :) I am so glad I got to work with you and Tati! You were both so sweet and easy to work with. I'm happy that you had such a great day at Whetstone!

    Amazing Experience

    The venue is absolutely beautiful, I love being able to see the lake from inside the event center and so many other places. If you're looking to have a wonderful little wedding then this is the place for you. It was also great working with Hannah, who runs Whetstone. She is so friendly and easy to work with. I would recommend Whetstone to anyone!

    Amazing, highly recommended

    Hannah was amazing to work with. Whetstone was great about moving the wedding (COVID stuff). The center is beautiful, with new updates too! They have the prettiest view of the lake and their new dock is great for pictures! Definitely go view it! ❤️

    Thanks for the review, Katie! :) I'm so glad you stuck with us through the years and the obstacles this past year brought.

    This venue is very pretty. Everything is right next door and the scenery is awesome. Everyone loved Fishing off the docks. Hannah was my contact person and she was great. She helped me with any questions I had and went above and beyond with making sure my day was exactly how I visioned. They are also flexible with the rental plans to suit your needs.

    The Whetstone Event Center was the ideal location for our daughter's bridal shower. The facilities, beautiful location and
    ambiance were excellent. The best part of the whole experience though was working with Ms. Karmie, the Event Manager . She made the evening a true success. Her professionalism and customer service were impeccable! She was a joy to work with and very attentive. I highly recommend The Whetstone Event Center for a special but relaxing venue to hold your next event. Thank you Tess!
