Lawn Club Fine Catering

o unanimously positive, that the only place we actually toured was the Lawn Club - we signed the contract at the end of the tour and it was the best decision we made! Everything you have read about the Lawn Club is true, it is a beautiful, unique all-inclusive venue with an amazing candlelit Art Deco feel. We did both ceremony and reception at the Lawn Club and utilized the bridal suite to get ready… such a big, beautiful room, I loved it! Throughout the Lawn Club grounds, there’s so many unique spots for photos, we had such a fun time exploring with our photographers and the photos are stunning! Our guests were blown away by the venue, food, and the service! No one had to wait for bar service at any point throughout the night. There’s so many small details that make a wedding at the lawn club stand out. First, during the ceremony, the blinds on all the windows are down and the room is filled with dreamy candlelight, and as the bride enters the room and walks down the aisle, the curtains are raised to let the sunlight in - so heavenly! Second, once the ballroom is set up prior to the reception, Christine found my husband and I and brought us into the ballroom is take in the whole setup prior to any guests entering - such a special quiet moment that the two of us were able to share! If it wasn’t already clear, the shining star of the venue is that it comes with Christine… she runs all on-site coordination and was such a pleasure to work with (I could not have done it without here). We postponed out 2020 wedding to 2021 and it was such a smooth process and I was so thankful for that, as it was already a stressful time! She is insanely organized, so helpful, and was there day-of to make sure everything ran smoothly. Her and her team also do ALL setup and breakdown at the end of the night and I was able to take in every single aspect of the day, instead of running around setting things up! It goes without saying, but the wedding would not have been as perfect if it wasn’t for Christine! Don’t wait, book the Lawn Club, it is stunning!!

fers coordination services that you should still hire an outside coordinator. I can speak from experience that this is not the case with the Lawn Club. Every step of the way, Christine and the team were in contact and helped us make sure we were on the right track with planning. Everything was covered from when to send our save the dates to helping pick vendors that were in our budget. It made the planning process so much less stressful knowing that Christine was there to help. In the weeks leading up to the wedding they went above and beyond. They called all our vendors to coordinate and even helped us by providing outdoor heaters on the patio for our guests. When our wedding day came, we were able to relax and be in the moment (and enjoy our delicious dinners!) because we knew that everything was under control. It was truly a magical day and picking the lawn club as our venue was a huge part of the day's success!

le and the coordination by Christine of all the vendors we hired was so seamless that my husband and I didn't have to worry about a thing the entire day. Prior to the wedding, Christine would happily jump on a call to discuss vendors or give advice to ensure our vision for our wedding was met. I call the list of vendors provided by Christine the "magic list" because every single vendor we interacted with was phenomenal. Additionally, we had an all vegetarian wedding and the Lawn Club chef was able to accommodate us with completely delicious results. We got so many compliments on the food (even from our typically meat eating guests!) that we knew we went with the right Vendor. On top of all of this amazing service, the Lawn Club is a gorgeous venue. The use of candles (provided by the Lawn Club) all over the club gave a romantic and intimate vibe and little details had big impact. The club has numerous spots to take photos and is also close enough to Yale's campus that we were able to go off site as well. To note, we had our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception all at the Lawn Club and we would not have changed anything about that. Truly phenomenal experience working with Christine and her team.

ace I needed to have my wedding. Not only is the space so amazingly beautiful on the inside and outside, but the staff there are phenomenal. Christine and Karen both made the wedding planning process so much easier and I was able to truly enjoy my time wedding planning. Every single person working there was so kind, helpful, professional and made our day that much better. Every single guest made sure to tell me how much of a positive experience they had and how they truly appreciated the hospitality provided by Christine and team. Along with the wonderful service, the food and drinks are AMAZING. My husband and I want to join the day club for the food along! I can go on and on all day about how wonderful our experience with NHLC was, but I'll just say that it is definitely worth it and you will not only enjoy your day, but Christine, Karen and team will make sure you enjoy your entire experience.

des how BEAUTIFUL the club was, we knew we wanted to work with Christine to plan our wedding. Planning with the Lawn Club was seamless. It was really helpful to have a list of preferred vendors as it made research that much easier (especially during covid when everyone was booked and you had to reach out to EVERYONE). We got married off site so we hired Christine to help with the ceremony and it made the morning seamless as she handled everything on our behalf. Once we got to the Lawn Club, everything was just perfect, from the tables to the decorations we dropped off. Truly perfect. The food was absolutely amazing. Not to be biased but I've been to a lot of weddings and the club's food is the best. I cannot tell you how many people agreed. Most people got the beef Wellington and RAVED about it all night long. We are so grateful for the staff at the Lawn Club as we truly had an amazing and perfect day and I would recommend the club to anyone who wants to get married in CT!!!

or added a magical touch that captivated our guests. Many people told us that it was the nicest venue they had ever seen. Christine is responsive, professional, and an absolute pleasure to work with. Her presence was calming and you can trust her to ensure your day is a success. We had a last minute surprise for the groom and she executed it perfectly with less than 48 hours to go. Our wedding was a dream come true and I highly recommend the NHLC! (especially in December)

hristine - she is so “on it” that she has an answer ready to your every question and she doesn’t miss a single little detail. Christine was swamped with weddings this past year so sometimes she would take a few days to circle back to us, but she never let anything fall through the cracks unresolved. Other amazing benefits about the lawn club - the food is EXCELLENT. Every single menu option and appetizer was delicious. And the club’s elegance means that you really can be simple and minimalist on decor. The ballroom is perfect for having a big dance floor and the acoustics are great for a live band. We could not be more happy with how our wedding day and wedding reception turned out thanks to the thoughtfulness and attentiveness of the Lawn Club team.

ifferent spaces how we wanted throughout the entire day were perfect for our multicultural wedding. Christine and Karen helped us to think through every last detail and no question was too trivial to be answered. They are incredibly experienced and knowledgeable and gave great suggestions during the planning process. While our original plans were disrupted due to COVID-19, Christine was a pleasure to work with, kept open communication, and helped us to re-plan an event that better suited our needs during the pandemic. On the day of our celebration, everything turned out exactly as we had envisioned. We didn't have to lift a finger and were able to fully enjoy ourselves! The ambiance was so beautiful and elegant and everyone raved about the food and had a great time! We couldn't be more grateful to Christine and the entire staff at the Lawn Club for sticking by us through a long process of planning and re-planning and for creating the most amazing day for us!

n December 2019, she was so supportive and professional throughout all of the changes due to pandemic. Everything from jumping on a call with us to discuss options as we navigate wedding planning in a pandemic to confirming every detail at the final walk-through, if you are working with the lawn club you’re in great hands! We would highly recommend this gorgeous venue!

ntion to detail, expertise and experience in wedding planning that is provided by Christine and her team is unmatched and it truly made the process stress-free and the day of so perfect. We always felt confident that she was going to do an amazing job and exceed all of our expectations (which she did). The food was beyond fantastic and there are options to customize the packages. The staff were all so friendly, helpful and professional and the service they provided was great. The venue itself is very spacious and beautiful, and they do an amazing job enhancing it with the candles they provide. Our overall experience was absolutely phenomenal and we would very highly recommend the Lawn Club to anyone considering it for their wedding!!

t ease. This venue does weddings - they know exactly what they're doing and they've seen it all. Not once did Christine tell us "no" to a request we made - she always found a way to incorporate our wants and needs. On the day of, we mentioned that we never felt concerned about where we needed to be or what we needed to do. Everyone helping on the day made it flow with ease and our guests were absolutely wow-ed by all of the special details the Lawn Club puts into the event. Our guests raved that the food was the best they've had at a wedding (we personally thought so, too!). My cousin is severely allergic to dairy and eggs but he said that he felt really confident in them because they came over to double check his allergies and they make the allergy meals in a separate part of the kitchen. All of this to say - the Lawn Club is AMAZING. I will recommend to anyone wanting to get married in the New Haven area.

nt and was there to make sure the postponing process went smoothly. Not once were we overwhelmed throughout the process. The day of the wedding, we didn’t have to worry about anything, Christine made sure everything ran smoothly and flawlessly. All of our guests had a wonderful time. The food and service was absolutely outstanding! Guests are still raving about how amazing cocktail hour and dinner were. We’ve had several people say how they want to get married at the Lawn Club or want their children to get married there one day! We couldn’t have dreamt of a more perfect wedding! We highly recommend them to anyone looking for an unforgettable experience at a beautiful venue with great food and an amazing wedding coordinator!!!

ll our needs were met. She was accommodating, professional and went above and beyond to ensure our day was flawless. Our guests are still raving about food, service and venue! We truly could not have asked for a better experience and day! It was truly the best day of our lives

stine talked me off a ledge more times than I can count. She is the ultimate professional and has such a beautiful vision to help you plan your wedding. The venue is obviously stunning, the food is delicious and the staff are amazing. I did not have to lift a finger once we arrived at the reception! You will absolutely not regret having your wedding at the Lawn Club!

nal. And Christine was such a blessing to have during this last year. From the day of our tour/booking, our food tasting and everything leading up to the wedding, Christine was there to answer all of our questions. This year was unlike any other. We faced so many changes due to Covid and Christine was just a phone call away to calm us or reassure us that NHLC would do all they could to make sure our day was amazing. I know Christine had to have so many hard conversations with couples, but we appreciated her candor and willingness to go above and beyond. And despite all the changes, we were able to have a smaller more intimate, but truly beautiful wedding. Our guests felt comfortable with all the protocols in place and still had a great time. The food was fantastic and a hit with everyone. Christine and Karen were there any every point in the night to make sure we were taken care of and having a great time. You cannot go wrong with the Lawn Club. The venue paired with the exceptional service and food makes this place truly hard to beat!

and aesthetically pleasing venue you could have. The food is amazing and the service is impeccable. Highly recommend!

lanned but if I had known, I would have done this in the first place ! Great venue, getting ready area, fully staffed so that you don't need to think about a single detail on the day. Highly highly recommend!

mmunication was never delayed, help with vendors was always available, small details were never forgotten and the BEST was that they coordinated with our vendors on our wedding day details so we could relax- I did not touch my phone once!!! Everyone from Servers to Bartenders to the FOOD (OMG the food 10/10) they made us feel like the only couple in the world and made our wedding day so special. We are so happy & cant thank them enough. Truly a magical experience.

our wedding beautiful, fun, and everything that we wanted it to be! Everything was amazing, from the food and service to the ambience. We could not have asked for a better day!

here on 12/7/19. The Lawn Club is exquisitely decorated for the holidays, it is jaw-droppingly beautiful. If you have any interest in a December wedding, you must see photos or come by next December to see it in person! I can’t keep track of how many guests said, “This was the most beautiful wedding I've ever been to!” Karen and Christine have such a personable, patient, kind and professional way about them. No question or request is too silly, nor something they will try to make happen for you! Their attention to detail is unbelievable, and they make you feel like the only thing they are working on is your big day, when in reality they are juggling so much. Their guidance is invaluable and I couldn’t have planned so many logistics without them and the amazing preferred vendor list they provide you. The food was absolutely delicious with so many unique options. Our guests continue to rave about the Mac and cheese bar at cocktail hour! We also were even able to have my golden retriever come to the reception for photos! They are dog friendly! There was not a stone left un-turned before the wedding, including a walk through the week before and Karen contacting each of our 6(!) vendors in the days leading up to ensure seamless execution and organization. We were so proud to host our wedding at the Lawn Club and could not say enough about this incredible venue. You need not look further!

d and knowledgable . She will make sure your wedding is beautiful and runs smoothly!

ief after planning all of the little details that go into a wedding. The thought and detail that all of the staff takes to set up and carry out exactly what you envisioned cannot be explained! And the food was AMAZING!! Every one of our guests cleared their plates and commented on how delicious everything was. Wish I could it all over again!

execution of the wedding including the day of coordination, to getting married on the actual front lawn of the lawn club (we were the first ever to do this and thanks to Christine and the amazing staff at the NHLC our ceremony went off without a hitch). Not only is the venue beautiful but the food was out of this world! At our cocktail hour, my husband found a PEARL in his oyster at the raw bar (talk about good luck)!! Our band played on the stage all night and our guests had an amazing time, as did we! Drinks were pouring all night long and the staff and bartenders were amazing. I would recommend this place in a heartbeat! I wish we could get married here all over again - it truly was the most amazing day of our lives.

ordinated every delivery and set up everything. They answered about a zillion emails from me and helped customize so many aspects of our day from the timeline to the menu. My husband and I talked about how when we spoke to them we felt like the only couple they were working with and that felt so special.
