Lindsay Grove venue was the perfect place to have our wedding. We are from out of state so the team made sure to do their best at showing us every detail we asked for. The team themselves were also absolutely amazing to work with! Anytime we called, they’d pick up the phone. Any changes we made to our timeline or decor they made happen. Everything from the bridal suites to the reception was perfect. There was a slight issue with our sparkler moment, but they were able to adjust accordingly. Our visions came to life on our wedding day and was even better than we ever imagined. Weather was perfect, bartender was amazing, and the food was to die for. We’d choose Lindsay Grove over and over again.

I can not say enough good things about this venue and their team. We live in Illinois and they did such a good job of providing all the info we needed via meetings and emails that kept us organized and on track. They also take care of so much on their end so we could focus on personalizing the little things to make it unique. Anytime we had a question we could call or text and would get a timely response. Everyone was so kind and accommodating and easy to work with. Doing the wedding planning process long distance seems stressful that they made it as easy as possible. As for the day of the wedding, the presentation of everything far exceeded in my already high hopes and expectations. The venue is beautiful and very well taken care of, They did such a great job arranging everything and making everything go smoothly. Everyone loved the food, The day of coordinators were on top of everything, All of the vendors that they work with are so great and know each other so it all went perfect. Every aspect of this venue and the people who work there are so great! I couldn’t recommend them enough and we are sad we can’t go there again! Shoutout to our captain Claudia, our day of coordinators Kelly and Jessica, Katie who helped set us up, Riley, and Mallorie during the virtual planning appointments and Chef Nick, Monica, and Sarah. We had DJ Maxwell who killed it, Kim and Alyssa who did an amazing job capturing pictures from the big day, our videographer John, and everyone else on the stone bridge staff who did such a great job we are so thankful

Tony and Linda were wonderful to work with. All the vendors we worked with were also lovely. We used an outside photographer and florist. We were anticipating 75 guests for a weekend summer wedding and we were upset at other venues because we kept getting told that those places wouldn't open for less than 15 grand so wee needed to invite more people or go overboard on flowers for them to consider hosting us. That was not the case at the Regency Garden. They were upfront with cost and didn't pressure us to spend more. Super kind and super genuine. Everything was immaculate on the day of and they continued to work with us when our guest count fell significantly. They answered all my questions within 24 business hours and even worked with me to let me come in early for finishing touches. I can be quite the worry wart so I'm greatful to have such knowledgeable professions support me so I could be at ease on the day of.
