Lindley-Scott House

accommodating and flexible, and gave us the most perfect wedding we could ask for. The food was absolutely amazing (we did chicken and Tri-tip). The bakery they work with also went above and beyond for us. The natural light in this venue is to die for. I would recommend the Lindley Scott house 1000 times over.

rning of our wedding a massive storm began and we were devastated that our outdoor ceremony we had planned would probably have to change and be moved indoors! However Diane and her husband George were on top of it. They set up the ceremony outside and covered everything up for us in the hope that if the storm cleared we could still have our outdoor ceremony we were dreaming of. They were so helpful and prepared. The rain cleared about 45 minutes before our ceremony was to begin and they let me choose if I wanted to go for it or change our plan and we went for it! They got everything set up perfect beyond my imagination with in 30 minutes and we had the most BEAUTIFUL ceremony I could have dreamed of. The food was so delicious, everyone loved it. The venue is stunning and the people were so great to work with Scotty and Emily were our wedding coordinators for the day provided by the venue. They were so attentive, helpful, kept everything running smoothly and on time. I felt so beyond blessed to have such wonderful people help us put together the best day of our lives. I recommend The Lindley Scott House to everyone!

always made sure to answer my emails within two hours, and made sure our day was perfect. I highly suggest you book this place!

llay any doubts beforehand. I also wish they would just provide the cake cutting set. Mine was put away at clean up and we had to email them to find out that they had it and to get it back. There's no designated changing area for the bridal party inside the reception house. They convert the handicap restroom stall for the bride and groom in the respective men's/women's restroom. I have heard from some guests parking was hard to find. Overall I like the no venue fee, and I think everybody had a great time.

ness representative was absolutely marvelous and accommodating.The ultimate outcome was exactly what we had in mind: a wonderful reception, a classy and inviting place, plenty of secured parking, marvelous food. Diane and George made sure that everything we required was met. I would highly recommend this facility to anyone that wants to have and unforgettable experience. Thank you Diane and George. Sincerely, Marco A. Morejon.

are beautiful (the manicured lawns, the trees, the flowers, the gazebo, the house, the hall), and best of all – they are all yours! This is not some hall in a hotel where your wedding will have the neighboring wedding do the conga line right through your cake cutting!! The ambiance at LSH house is perfect. It is romantic, bright with lots of windows, the walls and carpet are neutral enough to go with any décor, and the outside areas are stunning! You guests will love being able to go outside to get some fresh air. They can sit on one of the many benches, stroll through the gardens, or sit in the lit gazeebo. We were absolutely blown away by the staff at the LSH on the day of our wedding. Everyone was very professional. Amanda, the team lead at LSH, is amazing. All staff members went out of their way to make sure everything was perfect. We had passed appetizers, which were a big hit. Staff members came and took drink orders from us and our wedding party as we took pictures. They even brought us some appetizers, which was very thoughtful. Dinner service was incredibly smooth. All food came out timely, and drinks were kept full. All-in-all the staff at LSH should be commended on their excellent job, we could not have been more pleased!! We opted for an open bar at the reception (which is a phenomenal value at LSH). As the bride and groom, we did not have reason to go to the bar. However, several guests commented to us about how “bad ass” our bartender was – so we had to go see for ourselves. We were not disappointed! This was one awesome, mean drink making guy! The food at LSH was great. Our guests raved over the fish and fillet. Everything was cooked as requested, served hot, and full of flavor! The portions were more than generous. Your guests will not leave hungry. LSH is a great choice for wedding venue for both quality and value. When shopping for venues we were struck by how ridiculous some venues were priced. LSH gives you the perfect mix of upscale at a reasonable price. And best of all, the owners Diane and George are a hoot. Seriously, Diane is a little fire-cracker and it is a pleasure to have worked with her. She is professional, prompt, and fair. From our first meeting with Diane up until our wedding day, she was always there to provide any help or advice we needed. She answered many questions, provided helpful advice, and helped ease my sometimes worried bride. We are so happy to have chosen LSH as our wedding venue. It is the perfect backdrop for pictures that you will warmly look back on for decades to come with memories of a magical night. When shopping for your wedding venue, make sure to call Diane at LSH!

se. Amanda finally showed up at 3:15pm. Late. Basically: Room beautiful, lack light, broken sink. Ceremony: Organist sucked even after we paid for music sheets for him. Now it's 6:30pm. No coordinator to be seen, only two VERY VERY nice young workers were there to talk to us. Now remember when we said we wanted our salad to be served at 6:30 before the slideshow? Our salad was served after our dance, which was 7pm. A delay is the worst thing that can possibly happen on your wedding day. Cause that just means everything else gets more and more pushed backed. We was going to make our toast when dinner was served at 7, but dinner wasn't served 7:40pm. Lots of awkwardness and waste of time during this time. AGAIN, lack of staffs and couldn't find our "coordinator". Dinner came out cold and late. No wonder Lindley-Scott house doesn't offer food tasting, cause it sucked. The meat was DRY and cold. We choose tri-tip, a more expensive selection. That was a mistake. We ended up barely eating anything cause it was disgusting and we didn't have time at all. It is now 8pm, time for my first outfit changed. And headed to the main house to change as said so in our contract. NO ONE was there to open our door. Took another 10 minutes to find Amanda to open our door. Waste of time again. We forsake all faith that the room will be opened at 9pm (as stated in our contract) changed in the BATHROOM into my traditional Chinese wedding dress on my wedding day. Cake time! You would think this is our saving grace. The cake tasting was amazing. I loved it. But this place also fooled us. Probably since they have a working deal with the Scott house, that our cake was not as amazing as all the Yelp reviews made it to be. The color was a disturbing YELLOW and GRAY not gold and silver. It had disgusting pimple looking dots all over it. Didn't even come close to the pictures we showed them. I was horrified when I saw it. You can read my future review on Some Crust Bakery for more details. But how does this affect the Scott house? Easy. We did our cake cutting at 9:15pm. The cake wasn't cut by the staff until 10. We end our wedding at 10:30. Most people left by this time already. So luckily hardly anyone ate this disgusting cake. But my question is, why was the servings so damn small, ugly, and messy? We had 100 people, the cake was three tiers. Some Crust Bakery said that they would remake our top layer for our anniversary, so that there was no reason to save it. But the Scott house did it anyways. Do they not even bother coordinating with their OWN vendors? SO much wasted cake. Literally, nothing could have gotten worse at this point. To tell you the truth, I was not angry when I left on my wedding day and I have no ill intent for Diane, Amanda, or any other staff. I am just trying to give you the truth in my experience. To everyone who is reading this review I wish you the best of luck. Don't expect the things Scott house offers will be professional. Get your own coordinator, organist, and cake. The Scott house has so many rules and regulations that you would think you were at a high end country club with snobby people. If you still decide to choose the Scott house after this review, then please realize that you should only choose it for the view and not the services. -Jessica & Lawrence

pared for a long winded review. First of all, I feel gypped. When we were first saw the Scott house, I was in love by the house and the sweet words Diane gave us. I felt more relaxed with her and had nothing but faith in her abilities to make my wedding amazing. She was accommodating with my requests and told me the times the bridal room could be used. Once when it first opened, another time at 8pm and lastly at 9pm. When we left the place, my fiancé (at the time) knew that I would not settle for any other place even if the price was out of our range. Diane was sweet at first but after we paid everything off in full. She called a week to confirm the seating chart and rehearsal time. I sent her exact number of people at each table. I wanted fewer seats at some tables for more elbow room. When I arrived, there was still 10 seats at each table. The rehearsal was then taken over by Amanda. We reviewed the times of the bridal room being used and the times we were allowed to enter to set up 12pm since we had paid for an EXTRA hour to come in early. Due to our VERY TIGHT schedule, my fiancé specifically told her that we needed to move up our dinner time table. Salad would be served at 6:30pm before the bridal party entered and while the guests watches the slide show. Then when we were done with our first dance and parent dance, we would immediately start dinner at 7pm. Everything was "No problem" or "OK" according to her. Fooled me twice now but let me get into that later. Day of the event, we came at 12:30pm to start our setup (as stated in our contract). We were informed that Diane had an appointment at 1pm in the carriage house DURING our setup. How unprofessional that you would setup a meeting with another couple during OUR time that we paid for? She then EMBARRASSED US in front of the new couple. Me and my fiancé had decided to practice our first dance on the dance floor as trial. In front of the new couple, she told us that we were not allowed to practice or have pictures taken. According to her, we didn’t PAY for this and this time was only a setup time. But what really made me mad was that she told the new couple quite clearly that she didn't even know WHY we were there. Like it was OUR mistake for being there.Then left without saying a word. Never to be seen again. THANK GOODNESS. Our photographers was told "NO PHOTOS until 3pm" not even of the setup. Money hungry. Please see part 2 of my review for Ceremony & Reception Review

esides the golf course and hotel banquet hall wedding celebration. It's a Georgian, southern styled house with a separate Carriage house for the open bar, er reception. It is a house, but you actually have your ceremony held outdoors. There are two locations: gazebo or arch under shady trees. My husband and I picked the arch, it's absolutely gorgeous. The estate is covered by a wall and surrounding trees, so you don't even see the street, you feel like you're in another world. The only two things that really put a tiny damper on things were the strict 6.5 hours (party must end at 11pm, so our wedding venue usage was 4:30-11pm) usage of the venue and the strict rules (no tape, pins, no feathers, no rice/confetti toss, nothing up on the walls, no getting ready inside the bridal suite...photo ops only, no one besides wedding party allowed inside the main house). It's understandable, being that it's a historical building and that they don't want anything ruined. I wish I had a longer time to use the venue, though. Other than these two minor (sometimes it felt like major problems, but in the end it wasn't that bad). The two reps that help you along the planning process are so dear. They are so helpful, very quick to respond, help with brainstorming. I can't even count how many times I've called and emailed them with questions, probably sometimes with the same questions twice. They are always happy to hear from you and always respond quickly about your open bar celebration and wedding. Pluses: Includes a custom wedding cake from Some Crust Bakery (Claremont, CA), a talented keyboardist for the ceremony, gold chivari chairs for reception room at no added cost. Plus, they have open bar at different pricing structures to fit your needs. Did I mention open bar?

nly issues were the fact that they don't let you come to the venue 1 hour before the wedding. And that does not give you nearly enough time to take photos before the wedding. We also had an issue with the bartenders not giving out the proper change. Except for those 2 thing everything about this place is perfection. The property is so beautiful and colorful. The food was delicious. The decor is beautiful. Diane who assists with all the before plans and questions is great. George who helps with day of coordinating is wonderful. We had the perfect wedding there!

indley Scott House. Our event at this venue needed to be canceled due to the accelerated cancer in the brides father. When we new he was not going to make it to the date we had contracted, we ask for a cancelation. At first the Lindley Scot House (LSH) said no to are request of returning the money paid under such circumstances. After some phone calls, LSH did return a small portion of the money paid by the brides family. My negative review is based on what was told to me "It is part of the business we are in" that LSH could not return all but the down payment. I guess keeping the money without any consideration to the family for it is far more important to LSH. Better business sense would be for them to have returned the money under such circumstances. The best advertisement is always word of mouth. It can also be the worst advertisement.

t a single detail you tell her and she's so flexible, she will really work with you to get things set your way. The house and the gardens are so pretty, it truly was my dream wedding come true. Food was excellent as well and the whole ceremony/reception price is very reasonable. If you want budget wedding but something elegant, definitely a place to check out.

on time, and Dianne was always available to answer my many questions. I highly recommend having your wedding here!

cludes white linens only. Overall if Iyouu had to do the wedding again I wouldn't change a thing. Thank you Diane George Leo and the rest of the lindley Scott house for an amazing wedding.

and we loved the bakery that provided our cake. Overall, 5 stars for sure!! This was an awesome venue at a very affordable price.

, has the BEST service and food, and you definitely get what you pay for! My whole family was so complimentary of the entire ceremony and reception... thank you Lindley Scott!
