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.

The Cottage Wedding Venue

Your wedding should be a representation of your individual personalities as well as your mutual love and vibe as a couple. It showcases you in front of your guests and sets the tone as to what the new chapter of your life starts out as. It all starts with a venue. Location is arguably the most important part of the wedding planning process. It is not only the first thing that will make an impact, but the entire atmosphere will be infused into every aspect of the event. That’s why, couples who love to be outdoors, are moving away from traditional wedding options and choosing backyard weddings with a more comfortable event venue and atmosphere. You don’t need to fly to an exotic place to have a beautiful backdrop for your wedding day. While the sandy beaches and mountains are nice, the trees and blooming flowers in a garden are just as good. Another advantage of organizing your wedding outdoors is to let Mother Nature take the lead in decorating.
