Arabella Estate

roperty the experience was full of character. The pool on site for the kids to swim the night before and the AC in barn made a summer wedding pleasurable and comfortable. There is an incredible amount of Decor on site and photo ops around the property it was overwhelming how much was there for our use and included in the venue! We had an amazing and seamless weekend..& can’t say enough about the helpful and accommodating staff.. Sue, Connie, Phil, Mikaela and Cheryl. They were beyond on top of the details from the very beginning. Sue was an immense help setting up everything and breaking down the venue post wedding day & keeping all our things organized. She made it so easy for us to clean up and leave venue the next day; Connie Mikaela and Cheryl were in the details all along, very responsive and friendly. And Phil Created a dream of a spot for our vision to have our friends and family gather together for our incredibly memorable day. This venue is jaw dropping beautiful. Highly recommend!!!!!

and comfortable. Our coordinator Connie, was wonderful. She was very organized and the rehearsal ran extremely smooth. Our wedding day also ran very smooth! Phil and Susan were also wonderful and were so willing to help with anything we needed. The only issue we had was with some of our vendors needing specific insurance, so please check with Arabella and your vendors before you book with anyone! Overall, we had the best wedding and all of our guests were extremely impressed and had the best time!! Thank you for everything Arabella and staff!!

dding planner & Maria said if we paid her an extra $500 she would help with whatever we needed. Maria didn’t show up for an appointment we made with her. When I called her she was rude & said she was on her way. She showed up in pajamas. A few days before the wedding she was texting me asking me questions which she should have already know. Her response at one point was “I’m getting your wedding mixed up with one in a few weeks…” then went on to complain about that couple & how they are asking her 100 questions. Then came the rehearsal dinner. At the rehearsal dinner Maria didn’t do a thing. She made us wait outside for 40 minutes before letting us go in because nothing was ready. When we finally got in she hid away in her office. She didn’t help with rehearsing. She didn’t tell us where we would be lining up or which entrance to use. She left without telling anyone. No one knew she left, & when questioned she said she “had plans”. Now comes day of wedding. Maria was absolutely TERRIBLE!! We were told all linen would be provided by the venue. Maria is texting me day of asking if we have napkins. I told her she said they provided those & her response was “all we have is gray or pink.” Neither one matched our wedding colors. I wasn’t happy & told her to just use the gray ones. If we had known there wasn’t any colors to chose from we would have purchased them ourselves. She was yelling at our guest. She was yelling at staff. Flipping staff off. Swearing at staff. As we are getting ready she comes inside the house & starts yelling at everyone with how disgusting the house looks. Mind you it’s the morning of my wedding, of course the house is going to be messy with us trying to get ready. She’s throwing things away without asking if we need it. She starts rushing us saying we need to hurry up. We finally are done & now shes no where to be found. I wasn’t sure how I was walking by without anyone seeing me so I had to walk through the muddy grass. I am now standing in the drive way waiting for Maria to come back. She comes back & tells me to wait. Then 5 minutes later the entrance music starts playing & I'm not even inside to start walking. I had to have our caterers sneak us through the kitchen. After the ceremony we have our cocktail hour. Maria comes out with appetizers. A few of our guest ask if they can have some & Maria straight up tells them no & walks off to go back inside. APPETIZERS WE PAID FOR FOR OUR GUESTS & she’s refusing. We are now lining back up to make our entrance into the barn & Maria is yelling & catching attitude with everyone. Our wedding party had shots walking in. I already had a shot in my hand so there was an extra. Maria says “I guess this one is for me.” & takes the shot. During the reception she is no where to be found. When we do find her she is drinking instead of making sure she is available for us. There was no where in our contract where it said we were not allowed to have shots with our guest & Maria put a stop to it. She was making our bartender cut people off who didn’t need to be cut off. Our guest complained about Maria. I would highly recommend the place because of how beautiful it was but I would also highly recommend not using Maria for anything.

leaves. The staff was amazing! So welcoming, helpful and they just had such great energy. Maria was so instmental in making the day go smooth. I didn't even know we had any complications because she took care of them without issue and I was left to enjoy the beautiful day. All of my guest commented on how beautiful the entire place was at every corner. The house was so beautiful to stay in with all the bedrooms my bridal party was able to stay and enjoy the weekend with us. Having access to the barn to set up was so unbelievably helpful we were able to set up and add extra things at our own pace. Not being rush with a time limit of when we could get in. It wasn't just a beautiful wedding day it was an amazing weekend filled with love and laughter
