I can only say good things about the Greenbriar Inn!! The Greenbriar team was great to work all the way from planning the event to the night of. I encourage you to book this place for upcoming weddings or events. The venue is even more beautiful in person compared with the photos. Planning: GBI team was incredibly detailed and caring about the nuances of planning our event. When we'd come with a suggested plan, they were very engaged in providing strategic recommendations to make it run as smoothly as possible. Property/Grounds: The property is stunning. We received endless compliments from our guests about how beautiful the ceremony site, cocktail hour location, and dining room were. You really feel like you're in a magical oasis. Food & Drink: The food is a highlight of this venue since they are a fine dining restaurant! The appetizers were a hit, especially the mini beef wellingtons. People loved the cupcakes, even though I didn't get the chance to try it! I was nervous about the bar bill given it's a pay-by-drink approach, but the GBI team did a great job proactively trying to keep it as low as possible/within budget. Pets: This venue is pet friendly! They were so amazing about accommodating our dog Leo so he could be there for our special day.

The Old Elm Farm was a perfect venue for our daughter's wedding and Theresa helped make sure everything went smoothly with no effort on our part. The farm is gorgeous, and the views of the Flat Irons was breathtaking especially with the fall foliage and stunning sunset. The machine shop and fire pit area provided relaxing venues for the guests before we sat for dinner in the rusticly beautiful barn with even better views to the west! The kids then moved downstairs to dance while non-dancers could relax and talk upstairs or in the machine shop. Everything was clean and comfortable, providing a perfect venue for the wedding. But we are also considering renting the space for future family events and parties. Can't say enough about the space nor Theresa who was awesome to work with! THANKS!!!

We had a fantastic experience hosting a private event at Corrida! We had our wedding rehearsal dinner in the all-glass private dining room overlooking the mountains and city. Beforehand, we were able to enjoy a drink on the patio as guests arrived. The food and the staff were phenomenal–we heard from several guests that it was the “best rehearsal dinner they had ever been to.” The staff was vigilant about food allergies and sensitivities. We highly recommend Corrida for your next private dinner event!

I can’t say enough wonderful things about our experience at Flagstaff House for our wedding! From the moment we first reached out, the team was incredibly warm and welcoming, making us feel like our special day was just as important to them as it was to us. I had a tall order - I began planning my wedding just 2 and a half months before I had set the date, which was also my birthday, and over a holiday weekend. Hosting a party of 45, we were amazed by the level of attention and detail the staff provided. They were not only helpful in the planning stages but also went above and beyond on the day itself. The atmosphere was beautiful, creating the perfect backdrop for our celebration. We did the whole package for a daytime wedding, the ceremony and reception and lunch. I was so happy to be blessed with perfect weather as well as wild turkeys and hawks around the venue. Every detail was thoughtfully arranged, and the staff’s professionalism and genuine care truly made our day unforgettable. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about the stunning views and exquisite service. The food was impressive, and the cake was delicious (I hear - I didn't get a piece! Busy bride!) If you’re looking for a venue that combines elegance with a personal touch, Flagstaff House is the place! We are so grateful for their hard work in making our wedding day absolutely perfect. Thank you, Flagstaff House, for giving us a day we will cherish forever!
