We LOVE The Villa!
We absolutely loved our time at The Villa! Starting with the day we first toured the place to leaving the reception to get to our honeymoon, their services went above and beyond. Absolutely recommend the tent and the garden space right next to it, truly felt like a Pinterest dream. All this would have not been possible without Ellen, our wedding day coordinator. Not only did she keep things in check and on time throughout the big day, but she was super accommodating to our requests, knew how to work with our bridal party and guests, and showed an enthusiasm that allowed us to be even more excited during the planning process. Worth every penny!!!
Just Phenomenal!
If I could give 10 stars, I would! Absolutely amazing experience with planning our wedding at The Villa. Right from the start I knew I wanted to get married here. The team was phenomenal and always responsive to any questions I had. Ellen was our Event Producer-HIGHLY recommend! Planning a wedding is stressful, but she made the process easier! Becky was our day of attendant and she was THE BEST! Always right by our side to make sure we had everything we need. Holding an umbrella over me when the rain almost washed our day away. Always right behind me to help with my dress, always had a drink ready for me and my husband, just an amazing person and experience the entire day! 10/10 Team! Thank you Ellen, Becky, and the rest of the crew that helped make 06/07/2024 so special for us!
Amazing!!!
My husband and I got married at The Villa in the Madera Ballroom on 10/18/24 and had the most perfect day. Ellen, our event producer, was so helpful to us during every step of the planning process. She was extremely detail oriented and was so responsive to any questions we had at any point. We had an in depth meeting 2 weeks out from our wedding day that reviewed every detail of our day, including an in depth timeline, which made the wedding day run without a hitch. On the day of our wedding, Ellen and the dedicated team for our event were so helpful. One thing I absolutely loved is that they provided a "bridal attendant" who was always around to grab us a drink, hold my dress, and make sure we got to enjoy our delicious cocktail hour appetizers. We got so many compliments from our guests on the food, the beauty of the space, and how smoothly our wedding was run! Highly recommend choosing The Villa as your venue!
The Villa at Ridder Country Club 100/10 Recommend
My husband and I got married at the Villa at Ridder Country club this past weekend in the tent. We had Ellen Jones as our event producer and I can't even begin to explain how grateful we are that we chose the Villa and had the opportunity to work with Ellen. From day one, Ellen helped answer every question we had, was extremely responsive, and made our wedding day beyond perfect. There was truly not one minute of the wedding that I felt stressed due to Ellen and all of her planning. If you are looking for a wedding venue in the future, look no further than The Villa and make sure you request Ellen!
