Boone Monument Village

verything and more from an elegant dining room to a relaxed, picturesque outside area adorned with roses, flowers, a water fountain and cozy fire pit. All guests found their comfortable niche. It's almost has a bistro feel, like a little piece of Italy landed in Marthasville…very unique, very pristine, very inviting, with impeccable attention to detail. As the mother of the bride, planning the wedding can be stressful but Bernardo and Dede made the process seamless, were constantly positive and seemed as excited about the wedding as we were! They guided us through the process when needed and catered to our every need throughout the day making sure everything was in its place at just the right time. They are incredibly special people who delight in the sacrament of marriage and go over and above to make the day the most memorable of a lifetime for the bride and groom. They purposefully limit the number of weddings they do at the venue so they can give exceptional service and make each and every one special and wonderful! After it all they felt like family. I can't say enough good things about them and the venue and am only sad that it's over. I’d like to keep this gem a secret so it’s available for my son’s wedding but feel compelled to do this review because it’s the least we can do for all they did for us…thank you Bernardo and Dede.

ing as we were and by the time our big day came, we were so happy to have them celebrate with us. The venue itself is STUNNING and both rustic yet elegant. Couples do yourself a favor pick this venue and Bernardo and Dede will go above and beyond to make your wedding dreams come true! Thank you Bernardo and Dede!

n amazing role in our special day & we couldn't have done it without them.

y step of the way. Two of the kindest people I have ever met. I am so grateful for everything they did to make our day absolutely perfect. If you are looking at venues I would 110% recommend Boone Monument Village. They are the best!!!!

tiful! The owners Debe and Bernardo are not only professional but kind and gracious. They will help you get whatever you need for your wedding within their power. All they want is for the bride and groom to have the most special experience that they can possibly give them and that's what Dede and Bernardo have done for my daughter and now Son-In-Law, they gave them the wedding of their dreams and I'll always be thankful to them. This is not only my opinion but of others that came to the wedding, my Husband and I throughout the wedding had people coming up telling us that this is the best wedding they've ever been to. I would definitely recommend that everyone go out and visit this place before you make a decision on where to have your wedding.

ne of those places that will be very hard to forget. there were 200 people and all of them had extremely positive things to say. If you are planning a wedding run to Dede and Bernardo at Boone Monument Village, you won't be sorry that you did!!!

t came to making this change. This also meant we were planning a wedding for almost 21 months. Although the coordinator that was originally working with us sadly left BMV during COVID, Bernardo and his wife Dede picked up right where she left off on planning to make sure everything was perfect for us. There was a lot to coordinate as we chose to rent linen dishes, silverware and glasses for our wedding, all handled by BMV and for which they have great options of! Due to the naturally hot weather in August, they allowed us to wait to decide a specific ceremony location on the property until the week of. We ended up going with the Pecan Grove and honestly so happy we did! It was shaded and absolutely beautiful. Our reception was in the barn and we had about 130 people. We used an outside food caterer which we had a little snafu with the day of the wedding, but it was totally unbeknownst to us. They were down a staff member to help clear plates etc., but Bernardo and his team picked up the slack and it was virtually an unnoticeable issue. The bar package offered by the venue is very affordable and has quite the variety of options. Unfortunately, we had an issue where the bar service did not provide enough mixer for one of our signature drinks, so that was a bit disappointing, but we had plenty of other options for our guests. Although the wedding itself was amazing, I have to say one of the best parts was actually the accommodation that evening. As part of our wedding package we got to spend our wedding night the Mellein Log Cabin. They spared no expense with all the comforting touches here! It is a quaint historic cabin, but with modern day conveniences and luxuries. My husband loves the bath towels so much, he asked me to make note of the brand! Also, may be minuscule to some, but worth noting the sheets on the bed were probably my favorite of it all, so comfortable! (I may have to ask Dede for the brand of these too!). If you're looking for a quaint, rustic and romantic venue, look no further. Bernardo and Dede will work with you to accommodate anything and everything you may want for your wedding!

/veil, cause of course there is always something (it was my moms, so it was super special to me), and Dede had her son bring it to me (1.5hrs round trip!!) I couldn't believe it! I will never forget how much work they put in to make sure i didn't have to worry abut a thing. We rented the whole village for our friends and family to stay, and what a blast! To stay in wagons and TeePee's and cabins, it was amazing, not to mention not having to worry about the drive. 100/10 STARS love this place! and will be back for the museum/stay again some day.

ng in less than 6 months, she made it a breeze for me. The venue is amazing as well. We were lucky enough to be able to have your reception outside. Everyone still talks about how amazing our food was and how great of a time we had. It was a perfect 5:30 PM wedding at sunset. Bernardo drove our guests around in a golf cart to make it easy for us to get around, and Dede made sure the guests were entertained and kept busy while we took pictures. The Dickhouse was a perfect spot for the Bridal Party to change and get ready in as well. The venue is the perfect spot for a low-key, outdoorsy wedding, I wouldn't change it for the world!

dding here isn't just "any wedding" - it is an experience you don't want to miss. We had a short engagement, and from the moment we stepped foot on BMV and met Bernardo, we were fast friends and we knew this was the perfect place. Over 4 short months, Bernardo was there EVERY step of the way helping me, my mom, and family plan. He joked that every question I asked, his answer would "always be yes" and I can say that's true! He was so supportive & excited about my dreams for everything from food to flowers. I had several specific goals like: a unique family-style serving, which he helped coordinate with my own caterer; a custom-built cross to be placed in the historic schoolhouse where we were married; let us bring our family hay wagon over & drove the wedding party around the property...the list goes on! I felt completely supported by Bernardo & Dede. There were so many personal touches too. Dede brought the ladies a super tasty snack tray while we were getting ready in the morning, and Bernardo planned a special surprise for us during our firework show at the end of the night. BMV was there for us, during both the good and the bad times. My dad is very sick, and they made every effort to accommodate his comfort and safety. I saw them cleaning during our reception several times. Even when his own family encountered hardships, Bernardo/Dede were there to answer my questions. And the morning after our wedding I realized my borrowed pearl necklace had broken and the pearl was lost somewhere in the cabin. He and his staff spent days turning the place inside out and even checked the plumbing!!! People had warned me in general, "be prepared from something to go wrong on your wedding day." I am not exaggerating when I say everything went so perfectly, from getting ready, to cakes and florists, to DJ's and dinner, to our fireworks and staying overnight in our sweet honeymoon cabin. This venue is perfect for everyone - but especially anyone who wants a wedding full of fun, intimacy, family-friendly, and jaw-dropping detail. I never thought our venue would make such a difference, but it made all the difference - with Bernardo & Dede as the cherry on top! I would give BMV ten stars if I could!

first night. Bernardo was attentive to the bride’s every wish, including accommodating a family-style meal service. He and his wife Dede even brought the bridesmaids snacks and goodies to enjoy while getting their hair and nails done! His answer to the bride’s every request was unfailingly “Yes!” He personally saw to it that the schedule was followed flawlessly, the providers’ needs were met, the entire acreage was manicured, and everything in its place. We couldn’t have ever asked for a more beautiful venue, or more gracious hosts. And the fireworks finale was Amazing! A million thanks to you, Bernardo and Dede. You’re The Best!!!

made the whole process so easy; it was amazing to know that we were in such good hands. Dede and Bernardo were amazing the day of the wedding, with the small little touches that they set out for the bridal party, down to checking on the bride and groom as well as the parents throughout the night was just wonderful! The grounds at Boone Monument are just breathe taking, and are going to make for some gorgeous pictures. Everyone that stayed on the grounds the night of the wedding thought it was the coolest thing to be able to stay in teepees and covered wagons! We couldn’t be any happier with how the whole day and evening turned out and we cannot Thank Dede and Bernardo enough for the wonderful evening!!

h us and our party planner through the planning process! They accommodated our religious traditions with kindness and graciousness, were sensitive and careful regarding Covid awareness, and handled our extremely short time frame with ease. The venue was beautiful!! The ceremony by the water was perfect, the barn ballroom and patio were set up beautifully and held our family and friends so comfortably and ending the evening with singing around the bonfire was such a sweet touch. We will all cherish these memories! Dede and Bernardo really made the evening one of a kind! We are truly grateful!

ure and easy to deal with! A shoutout to Dede for being so available and helpful! We are orthodox and have some different traditions and they made sure to do everything to accommodate them. Would highly recommend this venue to anyone and everyone for any event you may make!

ents, and our personal preferences, were met with eager enthusiasm and unprecendented flexibility. The facility and grounds are beautiful; and the staff is delightfully courteous, impressively attentive, and attentively present and responsive. Our wedding was uniquely and wonderfully memorable.

diligent. They are there, working with you insure that you have all you need to be your best and provide your product/service in the best way . The facilities are spotless and the working atmosphere is all directed towards an exceptional experience

re all amazing! Every little detail was so well thought out and gorgeous. The owners are lovely, and we felt so well listened to the whole time we were there. Highly recommend if you want to have a wedding like no other.

ake our day what it was. We couldn’t be happier with our experience! We also loved that they include a nights stay in their honeymoon cabin on the property the night of your wedding. This was one of our favorite parts!
