Perfect Wedding Venue
Recently just got married at Reeds & Rushes, and could not say enough good things. From the staff to the beautiful venue, our wedding day was perfect. We found this venue while it was under construction and although that can be a bit scary, we had no doubts. Curtis and his wife went above and beyond. We loved all the fine details and new additions they added, especially the dock such a sweet first look spot!
Response from vendor•Sep 30, 2024Thank you for the kind words and trusting us with your special day :) Your wedding day was so beautiful!Amazing Venue!
Reeds & Rushes is an amazing venue! When we first toured the place, it was still under construction, but we trusted Curtis and Maddy's vision. They truly impressed us with the final result. With the wood details and black and white accents, the venue provides the perfect backdrop for your special day. We were thrilled with the addition of the dock and the pergolas in the back patio. Our outdoor ceremony by the lake was beautiful. The Bridal & Groom suites were terrific, I loved that the Groom suite had a golf simulator – it kept the guys entertained while they waited! The Bridal suite was also gorgeous and spacious enough for 8 girls. Curtis and Maddy were excellent to work with, very responsive, and always helpful whenever we had any questions. I would definitely recommend them!
Response from vendor•Sep 12, 2024It was the most magical day! Thanks for trusting us :) You have the best family and friends!!10000/10
Absolutely loved this venue. I would recommend it to all of my brides and future brides. They were super easy to work with the additions that they made to the venue before we got married was amazing. It perfectly fit our vision and it was easy to decorate. The bridal suite and the groom suite were a hit!
Response from vendor•Sep 7, 2024:) :) It was such a special day! We loved having you at Reeds & Rushes!!Great people, amazing venue!
Maddie and Curtis are incredibly professional in how they go about working with couples and vendors at Reeds & Rushes. It is evident they care about the small details that are so important when thinking about choosing a wedding venue. We are excited to shoot weddings with them this summer!
