“My husband and I got married at the CKE this October 2024. There aren’t enough words to express our gratitude to their entire team for all of their hard work to make our visions and dreams come to life. Each and every staff member was kind, and helpful. If you had a question you’d get a response promptly and always with a “let’s see what we can do attitude”. Katherine (the owner) made you feel a part of the CKE family and always was looking to make the planning process seamless and easy for us and our family. The CKE floral and design team made our big ideas all come to life- we had a visions of big branching centerpieces with florals tucked in, that Jess and her team absolutely delivered on. On top of that, we asked for an installation over our sweetheart table. Jess and her team have many suggestions and shared they visited Home Depot at least 3 times to see how it would hang, and the final installation beyond exceeded our expectations. The talent and grace their team exudes is what ever bride and groom look for in a team. The planning process was also so seamless due to their amazing coordinator team. We worked with Katrina, the kindest, most professional coordinator we have ever met. Katrina was available at every step of the planning process, providing thoughtful recommendations due to her very obvious experience. Katrina also was there for our wedding day of helping to manage the schedule, set up, constantly checking in, and making sure it all went according to plan (which it did). In addition during the reception Katrina was checking with us throughout the night to see if we wanted to pivot anything or if we needed anything. We are extremely grateful for her support! In addition, Kyle was our maitre d’ for the evening and he did an absolutely wonderful job. He made sure to check in with my husband and I as well as our immediate family members. He was so kind and professional! Lastly but very importantly- the food and drinks! Most of all of our guests shared that this was the best wedding food they have ever had. It is no small feat cooking for large groups and every aspect of the food from the cocktail hour to the dinner course was absolutely fantastic. These are a few quotes from guests: - “The food was gourmet.” - “This is the real deal.” - “The sushi… Oh, the sushi! So fresh!” In addition, the bartenders crushed it! Everyone was impressed by the quality of the drinks and we never had a line at the bar- they were fast and catered to our guests. I would highly recommend the CKE to future couples getting married. The aspect of the family business really shows and ensures you have a tailored experience for your wedding. The entire staff is kind and down to earth- always willing to help. We wish them nothing but the best for their future wedding seasons!”

“We absolutely loved everything about our experience at Skyview. From the moment we toured the venue, our breath was taken away with the majestic scenic views of the Appalachia. Our decision was further cemented when we learned everything that was included in their wedding package, an incredible value that beat all of the other venues we visited by a significant margin. We don't want to ruin it for anyone, but honestly they could double their rates and it'd still be worth it. The support from the staff at Skyview (specifically Jenn, Hildegaard, and Ivan) both during the planning process and on the day of our wedding was prompt, thoughtful, and comprehensive. We have never gotten married before but we can't imagine working with a more professional staff that made our planning unbelievably seamless and stress-free. Our guests echoed our sentiment with rave feedback about the picturesque scenery, the epic food, the beautiful cocktail hour space, and the stunning and classy reception room. Skyview is a hidden gem that I hope gets all the recognition they deserve!”

“It’s hard to put into words how fantastic getting married at Perona Farms was. From planning over 2 years to wedding day, the level of professionalism, organization, and kindness with which we were treated was incredible. Ivette, Tami, and Kelsi were over-the-top wonderful and accommodating. No hidden fees, no surprises. I cannot recommend Perona Farms enough.”

“We are absolutely thrilled about our upcoming wedding at Waterloo Village, and here's why: Culinary Delight: From the moment we tasted their farm-to-table menu, we were blown away by the incredible flavors and the impeccable quality of ingredients. Booking Waterloo without prior knowledge of their cuisine turned out to be a delightful surprise. With a diverse array of menu options, cake flavors, and hors d'oeuvres, they truly cater to every palate. Inclusive Offerings: Waterloo Village goes above and beyond with its inclusions. From the elegantly adorned tables to the picturesque getting ready areas, card box, seating chart, ceremony chairs, every detail is thoughtfully provided. The venue's scenic beauty serves as the perfect backdrop for an unforgettable celebration. Quirky Charm: What truly sets Waterloo apart for us, are their alpacas. The opportunity to stroll into cocktail hour accompanied by these adorable animals added a unique touch to our wedding. It's an experience we couldn't find anywhere else, and the fact that it's included at no extra charge is simply remarkable. Stunning Location: With its blend of vintage buildings, historic charm, and natural beauty, Waterloo Village offers an abundance of photo opportunities. Whether against the backdrop of the canal, the incredible fireplaces, the farmland, or the gardens, every corner of this location exudes timeless beauty. Exemplary Service: From our initial inquiries to the tasting session, the communication and professionalism of Waterloo's coordinators and staff have been exceptional. Their prompt responses and friendly demeanor have instilled us with confidence that our special day is in capable hands. In essence, Waterloo Village encapsulates everything we envisioned for our wedding: exquisite cuisine, inclusive amenities, unique experiences, breathtaking surroundings, and top-notch service. Once we tour Waterloo, we were set and couldn't be more excited to celebrate the beginning of our marriage in such a magical setting.”
