Hi Erica!! We're so grateful that you took the time to share your feedback with us, and we're thrilled to hear that your wedding day was just perfect! It's really our pleasure to work with such a fabulous couple:)
Any questions?
I am not one to write reviews but I had to take a minute to say how happy we were with Green Pond Country Club. We had a 'After Wedding Celebration' in October, 2022. I cannot rave enough about Shawna, the Event Coordinator. Not only is s...
he professional and knowledgeable but she makes you feel your event is the only thing on her mind. I had many questions and she responded without delay. Her demeanor during the event made us all feel at ease. She had everything under control. I can assure anyone who is wondering if this is the place.... don't hesitate. It is amazing. Shawna, Green Pond is lucky to have you. Thank you again!

Hi Gloria! I'm thrilled to hear that you loved our venue!! Thank you so much for your kind words and for being such a fantastic customer:)
Green Pond went above and beyond our expectations! Everything was beautiful and I didn't have to do a thing. They decorated and cleaned up, all we needed to do was drop everything off! The service was great and we had a crowd of happy guests.

Hi Nicole! Thank you so much for the positive feedback! Your wedding reception was absolutely beautiful - I loved the lavender in the centerpieces:) Wishing you all the best and a lifetime of love and happiness!
My daughter’s wedding day was incredible, and went off without a hitch. The staff was anticipatory and responsive, the food was excellent, and the venue was beautiful. It was absolutely beyond anything we had envisioned. Shawna, made the plan...
ning process easy and enjoyable.
Shawna is an exceptional wedding coordinator. The whole day was perfect! Food was spectacular and we couldn't have asked for a better venue!
Green pond went above and beyond to help make our day perfect. I was able to text, email or call whenever a question popped up (which was often) and Shawna never left me hanging. The food was outstanding, which wasn’t surprising because Brian (...
the chef) was also fantastic. All our guests had an amazing time.
First and foremost, would like give a huge THANK YOU to all the staff and team members at Green Pond Country Club - and specifically Shawna, Brian, and Rodger for making our wedding day so special and memorable! My husband and I both agree, our...
wedding was the best day of our lives, and are so grateful we were able to celebrate our wedding at Green Pond. Shawna and her team worked so hard to keep everything running smoothly for both the rehearsal dinner and day of, and provided SO much help with with set-up/clean-up and helping us figuring where we needed to be and when. Shawna was such a pleasure to work with, always available for all our random questions and took care of all the stressful stuff like coordinating last minute things with other vendors, again all the decor assistance, and overall just making our day as magical as possible. The venue (ceremony space especially) was absolutely gorgeous, and the food was incredible - all of our guests said the portions were so generous and everything tasted great. I really can't rave enough about this venue, especially for the price point - you will not find a better deal around. My husband and I both used to work at a different wedding venue, and toured over 30 different places when trying to pick one for our own day, so we are both confident we have seen all kinds of packages in the general area. This was by far the most affordable, easy-going, accommodating, and genuinely pleasant team we have ever had the pleasure of meeting and working with, and plan on coming back whenever we can in the future for other celebrations.

Hi Casey! I hope you're enjoying your time as newlyweds:) Thank you so much for your positive feedback! We really appreciate that we could be a part of your wedding day.
My husband and I got married here in mid September and it was by far the best decision we made regarding our wedding. Brian and Shawna were so accommodating about everything, from customizing the menu options to filling the cannolis for our fav...
ors (which came from an outside bakery) for free! We live out of state and could only do our tasting on the day after Christmas. Brian was able to organize this without a problem. The grounds were beautiful, the food was delicious and everything went really smoothly. They even waived the event minimum due to people having smaller weddings because of COVID-19. Definitely consider green pond if you’re getting married soon!
This was absolutely the best place to have a wedding! They were extremely accommodating especially during the pandemic. They always had solutions to every issue. Brian and Shawna were AMAZING! Brian makes the best food and is so easy to work wi...
th! Shawna made sure everything went smoothly during our wedding! She was super sweet! The price was reasonable and there were no hidden fees. Our guests all loved the food and the service was wonderful! I would highly recommend this venue to any couple! Absolutely amazing!!! I’m still talking about how amazing Green Pond was!
amazing!!! with everything the entire way through. Had to postpone due to covid and really worked with us.
the food and service were delightful all my guest had a wonderful time!
We were extremely pleased with using this venue. The event coordinator, Brian, is very easy to work with and made the planning process go smoothly. He was very accommodating and the staff was wonderful. We had the ceremony on site inside, in th...
e fireplace room, which was cozy. Then it turned right into cocktail hour. The food was delicious and the timing of the meals was perfect. Everyone had a great time!
Rodger is a family friend of ours and allowed us to truly plan our most magical day. He passed on the reigns to the event coordinator Brian who was always available to answer my fifty emails and all of our phone calls. Brian did an amazing j...
ob with everything leading up to the wedding and then Tammy did a great job the day of. She made sure we ate on our wedding day and everything was perfect. Green Pond is very accommodating and professional. I highly recommend looking into Green Pond for our special day.
Had my wedding at Green Pond Country Club this past Saturday and it was the best day of my life! The venue is stunning, both inside and out. I was lucky enough to be able to have my ceremony outside at the gazebo and I cannot wait to see the pi...
ctures from my photographer. The food was delicious! Brian, the head chef, catered to all of our requests the day of the wedding, from making sure my husband had french dressing for his salad and for changing up his normal hors d'oeuvre's and making scallops wrapped in bacon for me as they are my favorite. All of the food came out promptly and beautifully plated. The staff at GP is so professional, friendly and happy. The waiters/waitressers, bartenders and others were top notch. Our 'day of' wedding coordinator Tammy was a god send. She took all of my homemade centerpieces and table numbers and made them look amazing on the tables. As I was getting ready and throughout the wedding she was always around if I needed anything and checked up on me to make sure everything was okay. At the end of the night, she packed up all of our stuff for us so that we could go enjoy the after party. I couldn't have imagined my day going as smooth as it did without her! Green Pond exceeded all of my expectations and I recommend to anyone that is looking for somewhere to get married!
My daughter’s wedding at Green Pond was amazing! Brian was great to work with and takes such pride in his work. The venue was beautifully decorated for Christmas, the food was delicious and the service was first-class. I thoroughly enjoyed m...
y daughter’s wedding as Green Pond took care of all the day’s events. We received so many compliments from our guests about how nice the reception was and how much fun they had . The vendors said how great Brian and the staff were to work with. I would HIGHLY recommend Green Pond for a wedding!
We could not have chosen a better location for our wedding reception than Green Pond Country Club. From the planning staged with Brian, to the excellent food and so many choices to pick from for the reception, to finalizing the details just we...
eks and days before the wedding, to the perfect execution of absolutely everything at the reception, we cannot say enough about how happy we were with having Green Pond as our wedding reception venue. They did an amazing job and truly helped make our day a perfect one!!! Cheer and many thanks Green Pond!!!
I cannot rave enough about Brian and the team at Green Pond CC!! From our first meeting with Brian, I knew my husband and I made the right choice picking Green Pond for our wedding ceremony and reception location. We knew a couple different ma...
rried couples who had their weddings at Green Pond, and they had nothing but great things to say. Now, I can see why because, I too, have nothing but great things to say! Brian was so accommodating, anything I requested he was more than happy to oblige. I really wanted to do a Chinese Lantern Release at our wedding and Brian allowed us to do it, no questions asked! The cost of a wedding reception is crazy expensive, but Green Pond offers great packages, they do not nickel and dime you for every little thing. On the day of the wedding, Brian and Tammy (our coordinator) made everything run smoothly. The ambience was great, the food was amazing, and the drinks were flowing! From start to finish, the day was perfect and Brian and Tammy were a big part of that. Our wedding guest are still telling us how much fun they had and how great Green Pond was. Do yourself a favor and contact Brian to schedule a meeting, you will not regret it!
When having our first meeting with Brian at Green Pond we felt safe in knowing that we were picking the right place for our wedding reception. Living in North Carolina and trying to plan a wedding for Pennsylvania was going to be difficult and...
we wanted to make sure that we could trust in our venue and the person in charge. Brian made that very easy for us and we knew everything was going to turn out wonderfully. Brian and his team were able to accommodate the times we were in town to go over ideas and food for our day. When the wedding day came we were so thankful for Brian and his team. They went above and beyond in making sure everything was how we envisioned. Tammy, our coordinator, was amazing that day. She made sure that everything was perfect, that we ate our dinners, and if we had any questions or ideas throughout the night. Everything was amazing for our day and we couldn't thank Brian, Tammy, and the team at Green Pond enough for everything they did for us.
I couldn't of been happier of the outcome of my wedding here at Green Pond. It was a pleasure to work with Brain he truly cares about you & your special day and is VERY acuminating.
Perfect!
Our day couldn't have gone any better! Brian was so helpful through the entire planning process. We met the night before to let him know how everything was going to be set up and the day after they had everything packed and waiting for...
us to pick up. The weather didn't hold up its side of the deal to have the ceremony outside but the staff and my florist did an amazing job decorating the Fire place room, fit right into the theme as well! highly recommended!!
My husband and I could not have asked for a better person to work with when planning our big day. Brian truly cares about each and every wedding at Green Pond and ours was no exception. From the first meeting until the time we left our receptio...
n Green Pond exceeded our expectations. The day of coordinator, Tammy, eased all our worries as she had everything under control which left us to only think about our "I do's." I would highly recommend this venue to anyone getting married in the Lehigh Valley Area.
We did not choose this venue, but it was our second choice, and at times during the planning process, I wished we would have gone with them. They offered an individual tasting, while our vendor did a group tasting that felt very impersonal. The...
y also had very reasonable prices. The bar, entrance, and cocktail hour space is beautiful, but the actual reception space is very plain. When we met with the wedding coordinator, he seemed accommodating and would have been easy to work with.
We were very pleased with our wedding reception at Green Pond. We received so many compliments on how beautiful everything was and that everything was tastefully done. Brian is great to work with! He pretty much goes along with almost anything...
that you want to do. He was so easy going and really helped to take the stress out of the wedding planning. The place was beautiful! We got some great pictures out on the golf course. The food was good and they really gave you a lot of food. Great location and reasonable for all that you got!
We were married there this fall 2014 on a Friday, and had a wedding of 60 ppl - it was the best price and location in the Lehigh Valley. I Recommend it to everyone! From small weddings to Extra Lg. Brian is a fresh breath of air to work with! A...
nd our wedding Ceremony was inside and it was PERFECT!
Good luck Brides & Future Brides to be
Our entire experience with Brian and his staff was remarkable.We couldn't be happier with our choice to have our wedding at Green Pond. All of our guests loved the food and atmosphere.
But it may work for someone else.
I had my reception at Green Pond a few weeks ago and couldn't be more satisfied with the entire event from start to finish. Brian was so accommodating throughout the entire planning process. He made sure everything was the way I wanted it and e...
very detail was perfect. The staff was helpful and friendly. The food was delicious. We chose Green Pond because the wedding packages include so many of the important details for the big day. It was great knowing that all the details were taken care of and I didn't have to worry about much the day of the wedding. I would recommend Green Pond to any bride. Great venue!!!
I can not speak highly enough for Green Pond Country Club. The price is unbeatable for the quality of service and attention to detail that they provide. Their 'Plan B' in case of rain is gorgeous and thank goodness because it poured on my wed...
ding day! However, the entire staff at Green Pond was amazing and so easy to work with. If I could to it all over again, there isn't one thing I would change about my venue!!!
We had an amazing experience having our wedding at Green Pond! The inside is beautiful, and the grounds are well-maintained. Brian Drake was incredible to work with through the entire process--so helpful, flexible and accomodating! We'll be rec...
ommending Green Pond to all our friends in the area! We didn't have a single complaint ourselves, or hear any from our guests. A wonderful experience from beginning to end!
At first, I was a little skeptical of going to Green Pond Country Club for my wedding venue. Not because I heard anything bad, I actually have only ever heard good things about this place, but because I had always envisioned a more grand place....
We checked out Green Pond and fell in love with many of the highlights they have to offer. The beautiful fireplace, the outdoor gazebo, and many others. Also, the wedding coordinator, Brian, was fantastic. He made the planning process easy, fun, and relaxed. He took care of everything. Green Pond was so accomadating. We even had the bridal shower there, which was so beautiful.
We have gotten so many compliments on the food, service, and quality of Green Pond since our wedding. I would recommend them to anyone planning a wedding in the Lehigh Valley.
Brian was amazing and the entire night went fantastic! I will never forget my wedding night!
they were ok. a lot of people felt like they were being rushed through dinner. when we were taking pics outside, none of the staff even came out to give us cocktails. there was a wedding coordinater, but she didnt even do anything. we had fun, ...
but only because we made it fun. the food was just ok too.
When we first walked into Green Pond Country Club, we knew it was the place we wanted to get married! Not only does it have a beautiful outdoor ceremony area, but the inside fireplace room was gorgeous too. And since we got married during a h...
urricane, that's where our ceremony took place! Guests thought it was beautiful, and so did we! Brian was great to work with throughout the entire planning process. He was extremely helpful, and was very accomodating - there was nothing we wanted that we weren't able to get! The entire staff was great the night of the wedding, we were so pleased with the service, and the food was delicious! Everyone raved, especially about the steak! The entire experience was just wonderful, and we are very thankful to Brian, and the entire staff for making our wedding so special, even under some very difficult circumstances! Great place to have a wedding on a small or large scale! You will not be sorry!
My wedding reception at Green Pond Country Club was amazing.
I had my wedding here. I would give it 5 stars, but unfortunately we had some issues.
Pros: The price is excellent and all of the food was incredible. The room looked fabulous and the grounds are great for taking formal shots. Overall, o...
ur guests enjoyed it there and we had a great wedding. Brian, the food and beverage manager, did a great job! They were very accommodating with my signature drink, and had it butlered during cocktail hour. It was a hit and tasted great! They even went through the trouble of getting all of the pink lemonade needed for the drink!
Cons:
1. Some of the wait staff were rude to my mother and sister during dinner. My mother was served the wrong dish. She was told by the waitress that someone at her own table was eating her salmon. Later, my mother found out that her dinner was actually given to my aunt at the next table. (Don't they make a few extras for this type of problem?) My sister asked one of the servers for a piece of cake and she told her to go to her seat and get it. (Would it have really been that hard to just give her a slice from the tray?)
2. Dinner service was very slow. It took 2 hours to serve dinner to 160 people. Which leads into why we had the next problem....
3. Since we only had about 2 hours of dancing, we wanted to pay for the optional extra hour. The bartender told us that she would not do it. (I didn't know that the bartender had the right to deny us the extra hour in the first place! A heads-up would have been appreciated there!) She said some of our guests were too drunk, when actually I think she was pissed because a few of the guests were ordering massive amounts of mixed drinks (and drinking them quickly).
I didn't understand why she felt she had to close the entire reception because our guests were fine and the wedding was actually pretty tame. We also had a shuttle to take everyone to the hotel, so there was no need to worry about DUIs.
Basically, I lost 20 minutes of my reception while my husband talked on the phone to Brian and got nowhere. I finally convinced her by appealing to her emotions. I told her that I get to do this ONCE and I want the extra hour.
So in the end... we got the extra hour. She admitted to overreacting. We had a great time, but I still get mad when I think about this one blemish in an otherwise perfect day.
Brian at Green Pond made our reception easy to plan and stress-free! He really worked with us and was so flexible! He truly was honest and so easy! If I had to recommend one place, this would be it! It's a BEAUTIFUL venue!
I would recommend this location to any bride-to-be! Brian, who works with the bride/groom, is a joy to work with and truly accommodating. We chose to use their outdoor permanent tent for our wedding, which was one of the best decisions we mad...
e! Our wedding was 4th of July weekend and we had sparklers and amazing uplighting that made the tent a magical place to party! The food was yummy and the service was impeccable! Not to mention the price, which was just right! I can't thank Green Pond Country Club enough for a magical evening!
LOVED Green Pond Country Club!! Brian, the general manager, was so easy to work with and got back to me so quickly. The staff was so nice and service was great. Price was mid range compared to other venues I looked at, but worth every penny! S...
o glad I had my wedding here!!
They allowed us to come the night before to bring stuff over and start to set up. they only book one event a day so we were able to return again early the morning of. Food was average, venue is very modern and spacious
I couldnt have asked for a better place to have my wedding. The outside is beautiful for pictures. The food was great and Brian is awesome.
Space was great! Everything looked beautiful! Staff are great too! Highly recommend!
Brian Drake is amazing. He kept in touch over email and made sure everything went perfectly. The hall was beautiful and people raved about the food.
