Aaron and Madison were absolutely amazing hosts and the Lemont Hall was a stunning venue! Our guests couldn’t stop complimenting the space. The Lemont Team was there for anything we needed leading up to and on our special day, they provided chairs, tables, a sound system, and two awesome bar tenders (Aaron & Madison). They really helped to create a magical and stress free day, I couldn’t be more thankful for them.

My husband and I got married at Walnut Hill in late May and had the most beautiful, intimate wedding. The venue itself brought so much in terms of decor—the gorgeous tree grove, charming barn, in bloom garden—we really only added small touches with florals and tablescapes / seating to bring the event together. As the bride, I also loved that we had the on-location farmhouse to get ready in, watch guests arrive, plus be able to run back to change or touch up during the event. Essie and Mike (venue owners) are incredible to work with, they truly care that you're going to have an amazing time. And Kate, the venue GM / planner, is super organized, has the best attitude, and will make the planning process SO much more fun and exciting. Overall, you just feel taken care of. The Walnut team is also very well connected and respected in the area. Vendors love working with them, which means you get access to a lot of good recommendations, and options to fit your vision. We couldn't recommend the venue or team more!
