Such a great venue. Little known at the time I planned my wedding, but I’m sure that’s about to change. The house has warm historic charm which is great for pictures and the outside space is beautiful while still providing a back up option indoors if it rains. Jamie and the staff made it super easy (which being in law school and planning a wedding by myself was much appreciated!). Halfway through planning I was questioning what I had gotten myself into, but Jamie and her team helped me stress out a little less and when the day came it went off without a hitch. So many guests talked about how beautiful the wedding was and asked how I found the venue. Any person who tells me they’re planning a wedding, Bienvenue will be the first words out of my mouth.
If you want a flawless event in a stunningly beautiful, classy environment, look no further. Bienvenue hosted our wedding reception and made our event meaningful not only to us, but to every guest in attendance. I was married at a nearby church but used an antique filled room to dress. Because the room was so nice, my pre-pictures are even more precious. Jamie, our coordinator took care of the few deliveries and had suggested perfect arrangements for the reception space. During the event she was easy to find but checked in at key times to make sure things proceeded smoothly. I cannot thank Jamie and the other staff enough for an incredibly lovely event.
