We chose Wedgewood in January 2021 for our October 1, 2022, wedding with 100+ guests. Kayla was our amazing wedding coordinator and she made everything so simple for us. Every detail we asked for came with a "yes" answer. She had wonderful recommendations for us and she and the entire staff worked with all my ideas - no matter how "different" they were. In fact, we made a last-minute request for a late-night charcuterie board and the chef jumped in to make it happen - and it was spectacular! In fact all of the food was incredible! Our friends and family are all still talking about how it was the best food they'd ever had at an event or wedding. The planning phase was simple, organized, thorough, and extremely professional. I'm very much a "Type-A" person, and this one one of the few times in my life I was able to sit back and trust that others would get it right - would see my vision and run with it. Wedgewood was super accommodating to the vendors I chose to bring in for ceremony music (string quartet), florist, pastry chef/wedding cake and groom's cake, marquee letters, favors, balloons, and other extra touches. Day of - everything ran smoothly! Kayla and Mo were so kind, kept us updated and ready for the next part of the agenda...and kept us well-fed and hydrated! We only had one small hiccup during the reception (with availability of certain liquor we expected to have) - but Kayla went out of her way to make it right for us. I absolutely understand that things can happen, but it's how the team responds that makes the difference and the lasting impression. Kayla is exceptional! I highly recommend the Elite package (it's definitely worth it!), the "grand sparkler moment" at the reception grand entrance, the tortellini, the s'mores bar, a late-night snack, Wedgewood's preferred photographer - Tina Joiner, their preferred DJ - DJ Maestro, and their photo-booth option - Untamed Smiles. My favorite part of the process was Kayla's enthusiasm and excitement for our wedding. It made me feel so confident that I was making all the right choices...and that my ideas weren't too crazy (having a sketch artist for our guests, we "buried the bourbon" on the property a month in advance for good weather... and dug it up on our wedding day, etc.). She was all for it and I truly appreciated her excitement for our traditions and ideas. Wedgewood is the Gold Standard in wedding venues! Without any hesitation, Highly Recommend!

WOW. Abbey was…read moreINCREDIBLE and a total VISIONARY! Not only did she create a STUNNING design board that led all of the creative/design meetings with vendors; But she took a "feeling" that I had of "romantic, moody, fall" and TURNED IT INTO AN ABSOLUTELY STUNNING WEDDING. It was so special to see her ability to hear the vague words and create my perfect vision for my day that all of our guests commented was "so Ashli and Brad." On top of being a design queen, she also wrangled my bridal party and vendors and kept us on track day of (really month of, I did mostly nothing). She even got us caught up timeline-wise when I was about half an hour late to the venue! I cannot recommend Abbey enough. She is an absolute delight.

Her presence removed a considerable amount of stress in an obviously stressful time. The wedding weekend was everything we hoped for and then some, in significant part thanks to Abbey. We couldn't be happier that we hired her!

We wanted an upscale looking wedding at an affordable, all inclusive price and that's exactly what we've found here. Our friends RAVE about the venue. We'd choose to get married here 1000x over. What other venues include floral and dessert credits?! Linens you don't have to rent! Gorgeous centerpiece decor available for use at no extra cost! The list goes on and on. In particular, I want to call out Jess, who was our venue tour guide. Our experience with her is a big part of the reason we booked this venue. You know when a person just gives you a GOOD feeling? She made us feel at home, like it was just the RIGHT place for us. She's also proven to be incredibly efficient, a prompt and excellent communicator, and uncompromising on ensuring we're taken care of even though when we booked, it was a full 18 months before our wedding! She gave us the attention and care we'd only expect if our wedding was next month! Ps. Please note that the only negative reviews about this place were during COVID. It was the Wild West back then, and everyone was just doing their best. We have experienced an extremely transparent booking and contract process, with clear language around refunds or rescheduling.

Renting a facility for your event can be a costly endeavor. But, Hearth House provides a beautiful location, at a rate that won't break the bank, making your event more enjoyable knowing you won't have to skimp elsewhere to provide your guests an exceptional experience. Not only is the venue beautiful, but their staff is professional as well as friendly - a combination that can be hard to find these days. Not afraid to get their hands dirty, you'll find the staff able and willing to help from the moment you take a tour, to the day of your event. If you're a skeptic, like I am sometimes, don't take my word for it. Take a tour and you'll see everything I said above is absolutely true. The next time I plan an event, you can bet I'll be holding it at Hearth House.
