Hermann Hill was everything we could have hoped & dreamed for our wedding, and more!! Every single staff member we interacted with, from the first time we visited to do a tour of t...he venue with Becki, to our stay in the honeymoon cottages after our wedding, was so friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. After researching many venues, Hermann Hill was the only venue we actually toured in person before making our decision. We just absolutely fell in love with the venue. Even though we were having a December wedding, I was so married to the idea of having our ceremony on the beautiful river bluffs, weather be damned! We were the first couple to be introduced to the Fairytale Friday package (it hadn't even gone live on social media yet), which was an awesome package to help us save a little extra money, while still getting so many really cool features, like a full coffee bar with all the fixings (this was super popular at our winter wedding!) Our coordinator, Jennifer, was the perfect match for me and my husband. Our personalities meshed so well together. She was great about checking in with us, seeing if we had any questions or needed any help with anything. Jennifer was always very responsive, even when I would text/email outside of normal business hours. On our big day, Jennifer had her daughter Chloe as the assistant coordinator for the day. We could not have asked for a better coordinator duo! Jennifer & Chloe really listened to our wants and needs throughout the day, even anticipating them ahead of time! Jennifer & Chloe brought such a calming presence to a long, stressful day. They checked in with us frequently, making sure everything was going as it should. They made the day run so smoothly. If there were any hiccups, we didn't even notice! Chef Craig put together some phenomenal dishes for our wedding. Our favorite apps were the asiago cheese dip on crostini, boom boom chicken skewers, and crab dip ala cucumber. For dinner, we had brisket, chicken parmesan, & cheese manicotti as the main entree choices. As sides we had garlic & chive mashed potatoes and dill glazed carrots. As much as I loved EVERYTHING, those mashed potatoes and carrots were to die for!! We did a late night snack of fried pickles and mac n' cheese bites. Signature frozen drinks were the White Russian, and a strawberry daquiri. Everyone was blown away with the quality of the food at our wedding. Chef Craig is so talented!! He took extra care and attention to my mother-in-law's severe egg allergy, ensuring that all of the dishes were properly labeled with allergen information. Our 2 night stay in the honeymoon cottages was so relaxing. The cottages are so luxurious and cozy! The waterfall shower, jacuzzi tub, and fireplace were awesome. Extra food & desserts were delivered to our room so we had lots of options for snacks to choose from! We had such a great time, we booked a honeymoon cottage stay for our 1 year anniversary!!
