As a wedding vendor (florist), I've had the honor of working at Batten Green several times and also have been a guest at an event here. Chase and Stephanie are gracious and go overboard making the experience easy and wonderful for their clients, guests, and vendors. I've been surprised by the humble way they approach hosting their venue, always willing to go the extra mile. I highly recommend getting married at Batten Green. With beautiful views and thoughtful touches for their guests/clients, you will absolutely be making the right choice!

The Perfect Venue for the Best Day of Our Lives We hosted our wedding reception here as a cocktail party under the stars, and it truly was everything we dreamed of and more. The setting was stunning, creating a romantic and intimate atmosphere that felt straight out of a fairytale. Even though it was mid-June, the evening turned out to be a bit chillier than expected. We had originally set up cooling units for the caterer, but with a quick change of plans, the team seamlessly switched to heating units on the back deck. Their flexibility and professionalism meant everything went off without a hitch. The entire experience—from the ambiance to the attentive service—was flawless. I wouldn’t have wanted to celebrate our wedding anywhere else. It was the best day of our lives, and this venue played a huge part in making it so special. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a beautiful, adaptable, and unforgettable place to say “I do.”
