We had our wedding at Fenton Winery and Brewery and couldn’t be happier with the experience! The venue was the perfect size—spacious yet intimate, with great visibility so we never felt disconnected from our guests. The staff was incredibly helpful and quick to respond throughout the entire planning process, which made everything so much less stressful. On the day of, they helped with setup and kept everything running smoothly. The food was absolutely amazing—we had the ribs and shrimp scampi, and our guests are still raving about it. One of our favorite little touches was the beautiful outdoor fireplace, which added such a cozy, inviting feel to the evening. We’re so glad we chose this beautiful venue for our big day!
We could not give enough praise about Fenton Winery and Brewery. They made the entire wedding planning process a breeze. As an out of state couple, our main priority was a venue that took care of as much of the planning as possible, and FWB did that! We had our ceremony and reception here, and we couldn’t have asked for a better venue.
The only downside in our experience is that we were given about a 3.5 week notice about when the food tasting would be. As an out of state couple, we couldn’t justify flights on that short notice (especially since we were just in Michigan the month before), but FWB helped us out and let my parents go in my place!
FWB overall made the entire planning process a breeze, and allowed us to have the wedding of our dreams. Our wedding day turned out to be incredibly snowy and we had always envisioned getting married outside in front of the fireplace. Riley made sure we could still do that. She was outside multiple times that day shoveling to make sure we could have our ceremony outside and it was so appreciated. The care and attention to detail they provide for each couple is noticed. No wedding there is the same, but each is amazing because of the team at FWB.
We had our wedding at Fenton Winery and it was absolutely perfect. The staff and site coordinators are so helpful. I have food allergies and the chef personally made sure everything was great and accommodated me beyond what I requested. It was such a special day and they helped to ease the process!
I cannot express enough how perfect this venue was. We had our wedding 1/11/25 and they truly made our dreams come true. One of the largest factors for my choosing a venue was having it be all inclusive (to avoid hiring multiple outside companies) and having allergen friendly options on the menu and chefs fully understand allergens as I am gluten free. They not only had options but went above and beyond in ensure myself and my guests ate safely and didn’t get sick. A great example was there was a minor mix up of dips during cocktail hour, knowing one of my bridesmaids was gluten free and not being 100% sure if the dip made was gluten free, they made her up a plate of meats and cheese to enjoy! The food was incredible, the venue was beautiful and the staff was caring and attentive to myself, my husband and our families throughout the day. I think the only downside was not being able to utilize the bridal suite due to only having access at 10am and no earlier, but we found an Airbnb to get ready at and got dressed in the gorgeous suite and it worked perfectly! I truly cannot recommend this venue enough or speak high enough about them!
We recently hosted our wedding at FWB, and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. From start to finish, every detail was handled with care, and our guests noticed too — even my 90-year-old grandmother was impressed! The food was one of the highlights, with many friends and family members raving that it was the best wedding food they’d ever had. We participated in a group food tasting, which was a fantastic experience. Everything we tried was so good that it was tough to choose, but honestly, you can’t go wrong with whatever you pick. Our goal was to have an evening filled with great food and drinks with our loved ones - FWB made that easy.
We also had a separate bar tasting closer to the wedding date, which allowed us to select the seasonal beer and wine options. It’s definitely worth upgrading from 4/4 beers and wines to 5/5, where you can choose up to two premium options. Our favorite wine was the cocoa merlot — and one of us doesn’t even typically enjoy reds, but that wine totally won us over.
The entire process was incredibly low-pressure and stress-free. We didn’t feel the need to add on extra elements, and we were never pressured to do so. The venue was stunning on its own, and while there are plenty of beautiful additions available, we were able to keep it simple and still have a perfect event. One of the big selling points for us was that FWB set up the tables, linens, and chairs exactly as needed, which made the process smooth. We decided to DIY our (very little) decor, so setup and teardown were quick and easy on the day of.
The planning meetings were very detailed and helpful, and Robin and Riley were a huge support throughout the process. Whenever we had questions, they were quick to respond and made sure that everything we needed was addressed thoroughly and thoughtfully.
We had a winter wedding, and the outdoor heaters running under the awning, paired with the fireplace, created such a cozy and inviting atmosphere. Several of our guests took advantage of the outdoor space just to enjoy it.
Another great perk is that guests can visit the taproom next door to buy cocktails or even bottles of wine and beer to take home — something many of ours did! We've become regular visitors ourselves, and throughout every experience at FWB, whether for our wedding or just grabbing a bite to eat, we’ve always found everyone to be kind and thoughtful.
If you’re looking for a beautiful, stress-free venue with truly outstanding service, FWB is it. They exceeded every expectation, making our special day unforgettable. We are so lucky to look back on our wedding with only positive reflections and happy planning memories, and we truly wish that for everyone planning their dream day, too.
I really cannot say enough good things about FWB. From the first day we met Robin and Riley for a tour, we knew this was our venue. The grounds are absolutely gorgeous and the banquet facility is so cute and perfect.
The events team was so kind and helpful through our entire planning process. They became a huge source of comfort for me during the entire thing. Especially the rehearsal (thanks Riley!). I’d also like to thank Carly (sp?) and Ginny for their help with both our rehearsal and our wedding day. Truly such a great team, I wish we could get married there every week.
The wedding packages are fair and affordable and I felt like we definitely got what we paid for and more. People are still raving to us about how great the food, drinks, ambiance, and staff was at this venue. The selection of apps and entrees is great. Definitely try the mini hot browns, they were a massive hit. The drinks were well loved by our guests as well.
All in all, FWB is the place to get married. The staff is top tier, the food and drinks are fantastic, the venue itself is gorgeous, the service is impeccable, and the cost for a midsize wedding (about 120 for us) is beyond reasonable in this day and age. Thank you to the entire FWB events team, especially Robin, Riley, Ginny, and Carly. Our day was perfect because of them!
My wife and I could not have been happier with how Fenton Winery and Brewery helped make our wedding day unforgettable. The venue, staff, and food were everything we wanted and more. Their professionalism and attention to detail made everything smooth and seamless. We would highly recommend working with them and having an event here.
We had a wonderful experience with Fenton Winery & Brewery for our wedding. The food/drinks was fantastic, and everyone loved it. The staff were quick to respond to our emails and very helpful with all our questions. They made planning our wedding easy and stress-free. We highly recommend Fenton Winery & Brewery to anyone looking for a great venue.
enton Winery & Brewery was a dream of a wedding venue. Robin & Riley, the event coordinators, were always speedy to respond, informative and extremely helpful. They made the planning process as well as the big day, smooth like butter. They even took note of some of our guest dietary restrictions and made sure they had a dedicated plate they could enjoy. Their thoroughness as well as professionalism made it seem like we had our very own wedding planners!
As for the venue, you cannot ask for a better vendor. The location is extremely beautiful, which takes the pressure off extra needed decor. FWB provides catering, bar, ceremony, as well as bridal and groom suites.
Everything about our day was magical and a large part of that is due to the Fenton Winery and Brewery and their amazing staff.
From day one when we met Riley and Robin, we knew that we had selected the best venue for our wedding reception. A professional staff that includes wonderful food service, and food itself. We highly recommend this establishment.
I loved the look of the venue it was beautiful. The food was excellent aside from the pork tenderloin was not as tender as it was during our food tasting, but everything else was delicious. It was reasonably priced for what we got and it was so nice to have food, beverage and everything bundled into the venue. The service was great and bartenders were awesome. The only complaint I had was room arrangement. Instead of traditional head table in front of guests they wanted us all to sit at a farm table facing each other with backs to guests which I think was weird but I guess that's on trend now. We compromised a different floor plan but it was more hassle than what it should have been.
We couldn't be more happy with the results of our wedding in June 2024 at this venue! We had it on a Sunday, which cut the maximum spend cost down. We had our ceremony in the garden area where you could witness birds, frogs, and butterflies with a beautiful backdrop of a pond and trees. We had plenty of spaces to take pictures in the garden area and around the building. Our guests raved about how delicious the food was! We decided to do the buffet, which I thought worked wonderfully. The open bar with our choices of wine and beer was also a guest favorite. The service staff was great. The event coordinator was fantastic pre-planning emails and meetings and during the event! She really helped everything go smoothly! The space was perfect and not over-crowded for our 100 guests. People hung out inside to dance and chat around tables or stood out on the patio for some fresh air.
FWB is the best wedding venue! I cannot say enough great things about our experience - Riley and Robin were our wedding coordinators and were AMAZING to work with! They made the whole wedding planning process simple & stress free.
The kitchen staff did an awesome job with the food, and we received so many compliments from our guests!
10/10 recommend booking your wedding at FWB :)
We had our wedding at FWB on June 8, 2024! Overall, we are VERY happy that we chose them. It was a beautiful day and the setup was exactly what we wanted. The drape and light installs truly bring the space to life and we were super happy with their new greenery photo op spot.
From the first tour to the wedding day the staff (Robin & Riley especially) was responsive, kind, respectful, and helpful. They were also transparent about pricing.
The day ran very smooth thanks to their staff and their ability to work so well with our outside vendors. It even rained, but they made our outdoor ceremony work and worked quickly to move tables/games when it did start pouring.
The food was INCREDIBLE - our guests raved about how delicious everything was (including the late night pizza!). We did buffet style and it was seamless.
Feedback (truly being nit-picky here):
Rehearsal Dinner: We booked our rehearsal dinner in the barrel room the night before and selected the steak and mushroom ravioli for dinner. The food was just okay and the service was also okay. Unfortunately, I don't think they were staffed for our party of 25 & a Friday night dinner rush in the restaurant. They did their best, but it did take a long time (20+ min) for us to get our drink orders.
Food Tasting: They offer a few food tastings a year and luckily added one last minute that we could attend. We were disappointed in the quality of the food and it made us really nervous about the food for our wedding. The salmon was very over done and a lot of the dishes were lacking in flavor. We think the food may have been sitting under a heater for an extended period, because the food we had on our wedding day was amazing.
Beer/Wine Tasting: We did a beer and wine tasting after our final planning meeting and it was disappointing. We were expecting to taste flights, but instead it was a very tiny sip of everything (not enough to truly taste it). The bartender we had was also underage, so he couldn't give us any feedback or recommendations. He just read off a sheet. We would recommend visiting the restaurant close to your wedding and ordering flights instead.
Bridal Suite: You are not able to access the bridal suite (or groom suite/venue) any earlier than 10am, which made our getting ready plans difficult to piece together. We are from out of town, so our options were limited in where to get ready. We ended up starting H&M promptly at 10 but more time would have been way better. Though, having access to the suite all night and a private bathroom was great.
Cocktail Hour: We didn't know until 30 days before that if we served apps, cocktail hour had to be 90 min vs 60 min. This caused us a little panic since we had to shift our timeline, but it worked out. We also didn't have enough apps (family who stuck around for photos and ourselves didn't get to try anything hot). So order more than you think you need.
Mixed drink offerings: The drinks were very weak and they couldn't accommodate for double pours. Most of our guests switched to beer or wine pretty quickly.
Settling Up: We had an open tab on our wedding day for our wedding party to order lunch and drinks throughout the day. This made FWB a bit nervous and we had to close the tab early since they weren't equipped to keep track of wedding guests. We understood! We just had wanted to keep it open in case someone close to us wanted something our open bar didn't offer.
Overall: 9.5/10 HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!
This venue was a perfect venue for my wedding! Not only was it perfect because the venue offers most of the services you need for a wedding but also how helpful and knowledgable the staff was! My wedding day was without a doubt perfect, a huge thanks to my vendors and FW&B! It was also very affordable compared to the other venues I was looking at even with all the add ons I got! I would 10/10 recommend this venue for a wedding, or just a night out in the taproom!
I cannot say enough good things about Fenton Winery & Brewery and working with Robin and Riley. Honestly, everything was so seamless, and they were BEYOND helpful and supported. Best decision ever was getting married there and it turned out even better than I imagined. I whole heartly think they are top notch and would recommend anyone looking to get married to please check them out!
This was an incredible venue for our wedding! The team was highly professional, responsive, and kind. Riley and Ginny helped us on the day, and they were extremely encouraging, helpful, and organized. The venue itself is spacious, beautiful, and lent itself to easy set up and tear down. The beer and wine selection were amazing and it felt extra special knowing the beer was brewed on site.
We recently had the pleasure of hosting our wedding at Fenton Winery & Brewery, and it was an absolutely magical experience from start to finish. From the moment we stepped onto the grounds, we knew we had found the perfect place to say "I do."
First and foremost, the venue itself is breathtaking. Whether exchanging vows on the brick patio or celebrating with loved ones in the elegant cedar building, every corner of Fenton Winery & Brewery exudes charm and beauty.
But what truly sets this venue apart is the incredible team behind it all. Robin and Riley, our coordinators extraordinaire, went above and beyond to ensure that every detail of our wedding was perfect. From our initial consultation to the day of the event, they were with us every step of the way, offering invaluable guidance, support, and expertise.
Our wedding day was truly the happiest day of our lives, and we have Robin, Riley, and the entire team at Fenton Winery & Brewery to thank for it. We cannot recommend them highly enough to any couple looking for the perfect venue and coordinators to bring their wedding dreams to life.
Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, for making our special day one we will cherish forever.
Sincerely,
The Campioni's
This is the best place we could have gotten married at! Everything was great, everyone was so helpful and made my day so much easier! The food was spectacular and they take allergies very seriously! (Everyone still comments on the food being so wonderful!) This venue is a must check out if you’re planning your wedding
The absolute best venue we could have ever chosen. Robin and Riley made us feel so comfortable and calm from start to finish. I didn’t have to worry about anything. We got so many compliments on our food and our s’mores bar :) It truly was everything we wanted it to be and more!
The staff at Fenton Winery and Brewery were phenomenal. They were communicative, professional, and really did everything they could to make our day special. Their food was fantastic, all of our guests were very happy with it. The decor was beautiful as well. Huge shout out to Robin and Riley, for helping coordinate, as well as Dan and Ginny for helping to make the day what it was. Also big thank you to the kitchen staff and the head chef, they were able to push our food service a bit earlier while still maintaining such high quality, as we were running a bit ahead of schedule. Booking with Fenton Winery and Brewery really was such a dream, and I could not recommend them enough!
We had our wedding reception here on December 8th, 2023 and it was GREAT! The food was even better than we had at the tasting, so many people went back up for seconds and raved about how good everything tasted! The attentiveness, speed, and friendliness of the staff made the whole night (and drinks) go smoothly and we didn't have to worry about a single thing. Robin and Riley (the coordinators) were there through everything, helping answer all the questions and ensuring all the details were in place. We really couldn't have picked a better venue!
We are so grateful for the Fenton winery and brewery team! Our day was absolutely perfect. We planned with the FWB team for almost 2 years prior to our big day, and every step and decision along the way Riley and Robin were there to help ease any concerns!
Everyone is still raving over how yummy the food and drinks were and how beautiful the property was! We are so grateful that we chose FWB to help make our wedding day the very best day ever!
This venue exceeded our expectations! The team was easy to work with and communication was flawless. They ensured our day ran smoothly and we had everything we needed. The venue was absolutely stunning and we received countless complements from our guests about how fantastic the food and drinks were. We are so grateful we choose Fenton Winery & Brewery as our venue! I cannot recommend them enough!
We had our wedding here on June 16th of this year and it was absolutely beautiful! Riley + Robin (the coordinators) were fabulous! They responded to my countless emails with such professionalism, quickness, and patience. Their attention to detail and ensuring all my needs were met were so refreshing for a Type A bride like myself. The team on the wedding day was so on top of everything. From the servers bussing the tables, to the speedy bartenders, to Riley + Robin making sure everything was all in order for the perfect day! The fireplace was the perfect spot to have our ceremony and bringing in all our own decorations to add to the venue brought everything all together. I cannot thank Fenton Winery and Brewery + their team enough for making our wedding day a night we will never forget!
We had our wedding at the Fenton Winery & they exceeded our expectations. The venue itself is so beautiful but the staff were so helpful & kind throughout the entire planning process. Every random question I had or detail change, they always quickly responded. The day of, everything went exactly to plan & was on time. The setup was perfect & they greeted all my vendors to help them setup. The food and drinks were incredible & we got tons of compliments on how good it was. There is so many options to curate your wedding exactly how you want. We are so happy we chose to have our wedding here
My husband and I just had our wedding here and I cannot rave enough about it! The planning process was easy and stress free with the help of Riley and Robin. The food and drinks were top notch. The venue was beautiful and the staff so helpful! Especially Gina, she was awesome! They went above and beyond and made our day go perfect. They had a great list of preferred vendors. I would 1000/10 recommend getting married there. Trust me I’m an anxious person and have a hard time making decisions. FWB answered all questions super fast and really made our day sooo special.
FWB was such an easy choice for us. Everyone we interacted with during our planning process was so friendly and helpful. Robin and Gina were a dream team, and helped make our day so special, and stress-free. The food was phenomenal and our guests loved trying all the craft beer/wine.
We can’t wait to come back for date nights!
Fenton Winery and Brewery was the perfect venue for us! They made the wedding planning process easy and simple. FWB provides many services needed for a reception so we had to search for very few outside vendors! Everyone we interacted with was kind, organized, and helpful. The venue itself was beautiful and our guests loved the indoor/outdoor option. The day was perfect and we are so grateful to FWB for making it easy and carefree. It was truly the perfect venue!
We didn't look at any other venues after our first tour here. The indoor/outdoor hybrid space was a so nice and the natural light was amazing for photographs inside. We had so many compliments on the food- it was super convenient having the food, drinks, setup and service all from the venue as it cut down on the coordination we had to do. It's very rare that a restaurant/brewery does so many things well simultaneously, (food, wine, beer and liquor) but we found the gem!
Communication and attentiveness was great throughout the process. The owners even personalized a bottle of wine for us as a wedding gift with our names and the date.
Could not have asked for a better place to host our day and we are so thankful we can come back and have a brew at a place so special to us. Thank you Fenton Winery and Brewery (and Distillery)!
I honestly had the best time at my wedding and I feel I owe a large part of that to this amazing venue. From the very first email they were patient and informative and so so helpful. Especially towards the end! I worked the majority of the time with Robin and that woman had everything together! When it was a week or 2 out the amount of emails I sent and questions I had was insane, and she answered every single one with zero issue or complaint. They had to adjust quite a few things off and on and they did it without a second thought. There were quite a few times that I had no idea what I was doing and they were there with suggestions and to gently lead me along. I can honestly not say enough good things about them personally again, especially Robin, she was such a joy to work with! But then there was the actual venue, it is absolutely beautiful! And all of my guests were RAVING about the food. It was literally the best day ever, thank you FWB 💛
This venue is absolutely beautiful! I couldn’t have asked for a better place for my wedding. Not to mention the beer and wine is so delicious along with the food. Only thing I wish I knew, is although it does say it includes a wedding coordinator with the venue, GET YOUR OWN COORDINATOR. They were very nice, but our wedding coordinator didn’t help with anything other than putting the chairs out and linen on the table. She didn’t help with the vendors or moving things along for the day. Other than that, I would still go with this venue again just having my own coordinator for the day!
Beautiful venue with amazing food and drinks made on site! We were happy and the guests were as well. Highly recommended venue!
Fantastic! From our initial planning meeting almost two years ago, to our wedding day last weekend everyone at Fenton Winery & Brewery was always super professional and upfront. Our special day was perfect. The food was fantastic, and don't even get me started about the drinks (SOOOO GOOD!!). The wine garden is the perfect spot for beautiful pictures. All of our guests were impressed by the quality of the food, drinks, and late night snacks.
Thank you all so much for all the hard work you put into our special day!! We could not have asked for anything more <3
The best decision we made for our wedding! The best food I've ever had at an event and all my guests agreed! The team was so easy to work with and very accommodating to all my requests! Would 10/10 recommend to anyone!
My husband and I were married at the Fenton Winery and Brewery on June 12th, 2022, and it was truly a day from our dreams. FWB was EXTREMELY accommodating to our limited planning time, and the staff as a whole was so friendly and eager to help throughout the entire process, making us feel welcome every time we stepped foot on the property. We worked with closely with Riley, who was very clear with her communication, made sure we understood every part of the planning process, and answered our every question. This venue has it all! Beautiful outdoor ceremony locations, gorgeous natural greenery for photography backdrops, bride and groom rooms to use as "get ready" spaces, and a strong team of employees who made sure our day went as planned! And can we talk about the food, our guests were RAVING about the delicious meal that was provided (do yourself a favor and add the mushroom ravioli to your MUST HAVE list!) Plus, how special to be able to serve drinks made by the venue! New to the Fenton area, our wedding was our first experience at FWB, but it for sure will not be our last. We are excited to visit and give them our business on a regular basis.
FWB was an amazing venue! They really made our wedding the best day of our lives! As with any large event there will be snags, but FWB was very accommodating, willing to work with us and answered all of our questions and concerns in a timely manner. The food was delicious from the post ceremony snacks, the dinner and the late night pizza, which I highly recommend, was exceptional. The great mix of both indoor and out door space made all of our guest feel safe (COVID) with plenty of room to move about, dance and mingle. The venue itself was very clean, prepped and ready for our set-up, staff was friendly and helpful and a huge benefit was that it was mainly an all inclusive venue! Far less planning and coordination of vendors, which just reduced our stress level and let us enjoy the days leading up to our wedding. A couple areas to note are that the timeframe for set-up can be short if there is an event prior to yours, which may be difficult to manage. Determine all these details and ask questions for clarification. Also, although the staff was friendly and helpful, there was not a wedding coordinator present the day of as promised. My only complaint is that I wish we could have stayed all night…the reception was amazing, but it all just went by so fast :) Highly recommend FWB for any events and for a great place to grab some pizza and brews!
Very easy to work with, helped with planning in covid restrictions, worked well with other vendors and assisted throughout the night with tasks. Highly recommend FWB!
The Fenton Winery was the perfect place for our wedding, everyone took care of all the details and what a hidden gem. Truly we couldn't have asked for a better venue for our special day
We had a great experience working with the team here. They really made everything easy as they did a large part of the setup, clean up, and take down. The food and drinks were a huge hit with our guests, and the staff took excellent care of us. The patio was perfect for our outdoor winter wedding, and our guests were quite comfortable with all the available heaters. Definitely turned out to be my dream wedding.
Great atmosphere and aesthetic. Due to rain, we had to use the stage inside the reception area. Wasn’t a fan that we would have had to provide our own decorations for the stage area (which would have meant buying extra decorations for a “just in case” scenario). Because we weren’t expecting it to rain, the stage was plain and the pictures didn’t turn out like they would have outside at the ceremony spot. They allowed us to use our family member for the sound setup and I (the bride) just used my phone to DJ, which was definitely cost effective. They did spell my name wrong on the bar sign and we had to ask for it to be fixed (which they did). As for the cake serving, they charged extra for the waiters/waitresses to serve it to our guests, and they did not hand it out the correct way (family was to get the formal cake, the rest were to get the other), and some guests didn’t get it at all, so I felt like the extra charge for that was not worth it whatsoever. That being said, it was definitely the cheaper option compared to many other venues in Michigan. However, I wish we would have been given some money back for the lack of dessert serving and how we couldn’t use the designated ceremony area, due to rain, especially since that was part of the appeal and our request. We also did receive correspondence from a bunch of different people, so we didn’t really know who to contact for questions.
Pros: beer/wine tasting was great! Nice reception hall (and the fireplace would have been beautiful if we used it). The employees were very kind. And, the bridal suite was gorgeous (not worth the extra $300, though, especially since we got ready before coming, and it was only needed so I could be tucked away for the first look).
Cons: see above. Also, they tend to want to add a lot of extra stuff, which increases the cost, so be sure to know exactly what you want. We had to correct them a lot as we were meeting with them before the wedding.
We planned our wedding with FWB in under 6 months during covid and it was smooth sailing. The food was literally amazing! The staff was so friendly and accommodating and the inside and outside portion of the venue was perfect. There are so many great options for beer and wine and everything was so reasonably priced. The vendors they provide you with are also great. We didn’t have to worry about decoration or tear down and despite it down pouring all day, it was all still beautiful. There are no surprise fees either. 11/10 recommend!!!
We had our wedding at Fenton Winery & Brewery in June 2021, and we loved it! Not only is it a really great space, all of our guests kept raving about the food. We also had one of the premium beers as one of our wedding selections and it was a huge hit. The event staff was great to work with prior to the wedding, coordinating food, schedules, etc. We also had so much fun at our bar tasting. The day of, the staff was wonderful again and everything went smoothly. It was so nice having everything in one place: getting ready in the bridal suite, ceremony on the patio, then reception. Overall, we had a great experience!
There are no words to express how much I LOVE this venue and all the people that work there. The event staff was incredible to work with. They answered my questions, made great suggestions, and were so easy to work with. When I arrived to decorate, things were set and ready to go and they went above and beyond to make my day wonderful. The venue is beautiful and there are so many options to make your ceremony and reception one of a kind. The service staff for the reception were friendly, helpful, kind, and enthusiastic. My guests were so impressed. FWB will be a place we will enjoy for years to come! I cannot recommend this place highly enough for your wedding or ANY event!
It was a pleasure working with FWB. After postponing and waiting a long tome to have our wedding it turned out beautifully. There was a few hiccups due to Covid and rain on the day, they handled them with grace and kept our stress down. Highly recommend!
We just had our wedding at the Fenton Winery and Brewery and it was fantastic. The food is amazing and the beer and wine is delicious! The staff was so incredibly helpful. Because of COVID we had to change dates, and also the plan for the reception. They accommodated everything we needed and then some. We had the perfect wedding thanks to the Fenton Winery and Brewery
We held our reception here and we cannot say enough wonderful things about this place. The staff is so friendly, helpful, professional and efficient. Very reasonable price for everything. We recommend this place to everyone we know, whether it be for an event or just for dinner and drinks! It will always be a special place for us!
We had our wedding in August and it was so beautiful! Highly recommend the venue for any party needs. The landscaping is perfect for an outdoor feel but the amenities of an inside venue. The food was great and the beer/wine selection for the guest was a huge hit. The planner was easy and helpful and made the entire experience much smoother. Loved it!
Our wedding turned out perfect and exactly how I envisioned! Megan and her team were extremely helpful from day one and made sure everything ran smooth. Our guests loved the food and drinks and the beautiful venue. It was the perfect place and we highly recommend getting married here.
Our wedding at Fenton Winery & Brewery was stress free ! Megan is so easy to work with. The staff during our event were professional and anticipated ours and our guests needs seamlessly. Our guests raved about the food - and still are when they see us. The great beverage selection kept the bar busy. Thank you to Fenton Winery & Brewery for helping make our day so beautiful !
The Fenton Winery & Brewery was the perfect place for our wedding! Our wedding turned out beautiful thanks to all of their help! Megan the event coordinator was so helpful throughout the whole process! I highly recommend this venue not only because it is a beautiful venue but also for the food and staff!
What a great venue for a wedding! We were looking for a more unique venue, and also somewhat rustic. FBW met all of our needs and more. It's so great that it is really a one-stop shop! So much less headache when all the main items are already included. The staff was professional, friendly and responsive- no issues at all. We also had our rehearsal dinner there as well, which we chose the gourmet pizza buffet and it was on point! We recieved a lot of feedback that it was some of the best pizza guests have had. Overall we had many compliments on the venue itself from our wedding guests- how good the food was, how beautiful it was, and how unique it was. Would definitely recommend Fenton Winery and Brewery. We certainly plan to remain customers (as their food/beer/wine are delicious) - just wish it was closer for us!
The staff were very accommodating and easy to work with. They helped walk us through planning and made sure we didn’t miss anything. The owners are also very generous and involved. The venue is beautiful and the food and drinks were amazing! We got numerous compliments on everything!
We couldn't have asked for a better venue. Savanna and Megan made everything run smoothly, even when the weather decided not to cooperate. Everyone raved about the food and drinks. We can't say enough good things about this place. You have to check this place out. Highly recommended!
We were BLOWN away by how amazing this venue was. Megan is AMAZING to work with. If you are visiting the taproom a few times before your special day you are bound to run into one of the owners who are also amazing and terribly welcoming. I could not have dreamed up a better venue. They have options for ceremonies indoors, in the garden, on the patio or pretty much anything you want! They haven't been doing weddings too long but you wouldn't guess it with the level of their professionalism everyone was so amazing and we couldn't have been more pleased.
Megan was amazing to work with! The location, food, and beverages were amazing! Highly recommend!
