The Waterview was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the moment we first reached out, their communication was professional, quick, helpful, and incredibly kind. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful inside and out, and the staff ran the day like a well-oiled machine with top-notch professionalism. Our wedding coordinator, Zuleika, was amazing - she listened to our every need and made sure the day ran smoothly from start to finish. Our bridal attendant, Brian, was also the sweetest and was always there for me, making sure I had everything I needed. The Waterview team created such a calm, fun atmosphere that allowed us to truly enjoy our special day. We are so grateful to have found this venue and would highly recommend it to any couple looking to get married.

Awarded Best of Zola
Earthplace was perfect for our 145-person ceremony. It is stunning, unique and great for those on a budget, as the space needs no additional rentals or decorations. Truly cannot beat this venue, and the staff was responsive, helpful and accommodating every step of the way. They worked seamlessly with our vendors to allow for a bar truck and chuppah to be installed without disrupting the nature/wildlife.
