My husband and I recently hosted our wedding at New Haven Country Club, and we couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out! From the very beginning, we worked closely with Karissa Cook, who was an absolute gem throughout the planning process. Her expertise and calm demeanor made everything feel effortless, and she truly helped us bring our dream wedding to life. The venue itself is absolutely stunning and incredibly versatile, perfectly accommodating our vision. Our guests haven’t stopped raving about the delicious food, exceptional service, and fantastic drinks. We are so grateful to everyone at New Haven Country Club for making our special day unforgettable!

We LOVED the New Haven Lawn Club for our wedding! Not only was it absolutely stunning but food was incredible and Christine Brush and the whole team there are absolutely exceptional at their jobs. We had the best experience working with them and the best wedding. We HIGHLY recommend the New Haven Lawn Club for weddings!

My husband and I had our wedding at New Haven Country Club in September, 2018, and could not be more impressed with the level of service the club provides! From the beginning stages of planning, up until the day before, NHCC helped work me through everything that would happen on our wedding day. We worked with Jennifer Newman, who I can't say enough good things about- she truly helped orchestrate the most perfect day we could ever imagine! Getting ready, my bridesmaids and I used the bridal suite- Jen arranged a breakfast and lunch for us while we were getting ready, and was there to help all morning with anything we might need. Having my hairdresser and makeup artist be able to come into the bridal suite was really helpful, and not an issue! Jen even arranged where we could have our first look on site, and helped accommodate all photos, and all vendors! My husband and I were given our own waitress for the night that followed us around with food during cocktail hour, and were available just to us throughout the night for anything we might need! When I saw the entire wedding set up just as I imagined, and saw that the club was there to take care of anything that we might need that night, I knew that we had made the right choice!
New Haven Country Club is very helpful in organizing your entire day- I would do it all again here in a heartbeat, and cannot thank them enough for making the wedding of our dreams come true!

I cannot say enough good things about NHCC, our wedding was amazing, the entire staff was incredible throughout the whole process, the food was amazing (most of our guests said best food they'd ever had at a wedding) and the entire ceremony and reception space was absolutely gorgeous. If you want a stress-free, relaxing experience, definitely consider NHCC.

We celebrated our wedding and reception at the New Haven Country Club and were happy with every part of our experience. Lee Jackson, manager, was attentive, responsive, and thoughtful through the planning process, rehearsal, ceremony, and reception. Like the good event manager he is, he was proactive, anticipating concerns in advance--he even arranged for my nieces and nephews to have a space of their own to play during the reception.
The space itself is a beautiful throwback to Frank Lloyd Wright's take on modernism. The staff was responsive to the needs of our guests, and the food was excellent--more than one person commented that it didn't taste like "wedding food." Many thanks to Lee and his staff for their help in making our wedding so special.
