Chestnut Hill Villa & Comfort Suites

When we went to our walkthrough we fell in love with the layout of the venue. It is not traditional in the sense that dinner and dancing happen in different areas of the venue. That was actually one of our biggest deciding factors, because we liked that ability to have separate activities happening simultaneously. We hardly needed any decorations because the venue is so picturesque, sitting next to a small farm and being renovated from an old barn and farmhouse. We also loved that the venue provided all the essentials (tables, chairs, linens,) and more! (yard games, fire pit, mini put put, directional signs, an arbor). Many of the places I found that offered this much also required you to use their vendors, which thankfully CHV did not. They do provide a helpful list of ones they recommend, but you are allowed to go off list (for us it helped keep costs down this way). Erica, the contact for the venue, was an absolute dream to work with. She helped me understand all the things I could do with the venue set up, and helped me stay organized. In our final walkthrough she took detailed notes of all our layout decisions and sent us back a floor plan that was really helpful to offer to all my set up helpers. She was responsive throughout the whole process, and helped me keep everything on track. Day of was amazing. Erica made sure everything was ready to go, even though there was an event the night before, you would never have even known. Steve, the set-up manager was amazing. He even helped us turn on the AC in the villa and shuttled my elderly relatives to and from the adjacent hotel. CHV provided walkie talkies to contact Steve and these really came in handy when we couldn't find how to turn down a light or silly things like that you would never think of when planning. The villa itself is magical. There was so much room for our wedding party and some of our friends to stay with us. Its so quirky with the layout and different stylings of the various rooms. We got married on a Sunday and stayed in the villa until Tuesday morning, it was so nice to be able to sit in the hot tub at the venue the next day and just relax. CHV staff continued to help us even after the event, and made sure we were well taken care of. I really cant say enough good things about the venue. They were so easy to work with and made it such a simple process from start to finish. They really worked with us to execute our exact vision, and were into our weird requests, like our live rock band and a small structure we set up for pics. There is so much useable space there to take advantage of for pictures and general hanging out. Being adjacent to the Comfort Suits was ideal as well. We had all the benefits of a hotel wedding without the ugliness of a ballroom reception. We were able to stay at the hotel the night before and begin hair and makeup there. It was so easy then to just drive across the parking lot and be at the venue. The venue is still relatively new, many additions were made even between our first visit and our wedding, but Erica let us know everything coming, in the end we got more than we had ever imaged. Get married here you won't regret it.

ith only one idea in mind for planning our wedding which was "we want to be outside". We knew immediately after visiting the venue and reviewing packages/options that this was the perfect location. If you are as clueless about wedding planning as we were, then please take our word that you WILL NOT find a more beautiful, convenient, or flexible venue in the near vicinity. We had our wedding, reception, and after party on the property and stayed at the villa for 3 nights (night before the wedding, night of the wedding, and night after the wedding). We were able to decorate the venue as we liked and customize just about everything with regard to the ceremony and reception. Erica (venue director / main point of contact) was great with all communication and answered any and all questions in a timely manner. This is the absolute perfect spot for an outdoor wedding and reception, and the villa is a beautiful place with tons of space to get ready and perfect lighting for hair, makeup, and pictures. It was also a great spot to then have our friends stay over night as well - we also had an awesome after party (there's also a pool!) The venue offers a hotel block at the comfort suites which is a stone's throw from the venue across the parking lot for other guests that you can't accommodate at the villa (if you chose to stay over night - which you should). We would recommend this venue to anyone and everyone! ♥

eautiful barns and landscape for pictures, great ceremony spot, a nice space for appetizers, drinks and dancing, a cute lounge area in the side of the barn to decorate, we did a coffee bar, couches and photo booth and I really love there gorgeous reception tent it’s carpeted and lined with the prettiest chandeliers! And to top it off the bride and groom can spent the night in the bridal suite!

uch as a retirement/birthday celebration or a family reunion. I suggest coming for a tour because seeing is believing in this case. Whatever special , Chestnut Hill Villa is spectacular for what it has to offer. Surrounded by farmland and forest the facilty has a pool and putting green. If you think out of the box the possibilities are endless. Erica was very helpful with options and ideas. I recommend checking it out.

I have been to. The staff is the friendless and must knowledgeable I have ever encountered

nd the Villa. They also allowed us the freedom to decorate and hire our own vendors as we pleased. Chestnut Hill was our canvas. We had the opportunity to deliver a whimsical ambience for our ceremony outside, a chique reception and a festive high energy area towards the end of the night in three various locations but very close to each other. Around 200 guests attended our wedding and Chestnut Hill held them comfortably. Their tents are the most modern and their chandeliers are second to none. We chose to keep our reception tent for the guests who wanted to mingle, relax and listen to light music; Our festive tent was reserved for the guests that wanted to listen to loud music, drink and dance the night away (they also provide a bar area at this location). Another admirable quality of Chestnut Hill is the opportunity for the guests to float freely throughout the property: lawn games, fire pit, pool, cocktail area, area for photo booth, putting area. Lastly but most important is the Villa. I stayed at the Villa the night before (I suggest staying there the night before if it’s available) to do the rehearsal dinner and set up for our big day. Our wedding party came early the morning of the wedding and we all got ready together under the same roof but in different sections of the Villa. The bridal section of the Villa is gorgeous and had everything we needed. We had adequate space for me, bridesmaids, mothers, hair dresser, and make-up artist. My husband and groomsmen prepare on the other side and we didn’t see each or even had the opportunity to see each because how big the villa is. The very unique aspect about Chestnut Hill Villa is that after the wedding is finished, we invited our whole wedding party and their significant others to stay the night at the Villa! No other wedding property will have this attribute to spend the night with your closest loved ones and continuing the merrymaking however long you want. Along with continuing the festivities, we had a peace of mind knowing that our wedding party wouldn’t have to go home inebriated. Chestnut Hill Villa is a gem, and we’re ecstatic to be their first public wedding and we’re in bliss with the outcome of the wedding, and feedback we received from our guests

la is Comfort Suites that can accomodate your guests if they need to stay over. Erica is amazing and makes you feel welcome and is one of the sweetest people to work with. I would highly recommend this venue for future brides as I am certain that all your wedding dreams will come true at Chestnut Hill Villa.

day morning to make us feel comfortable with our choice. The grounds and home are already amazing and they have plans to make some updates and become a full wedding venue. We cannot wait and I know I will be back here for another great review after our wedding!
