Talamore made our dream wedding a reality. We fell in love with the look of Talamore as soon as Karen toured us. Before officially booking, we came back twice to show our families. Karen was extremely patient in answering all our questions and making us feel at ease. As the wedding got closer, Karen helped all of the overwhelming planning details become easy. Our tasting was amazing. Leading up to the wedding, she made sure we felt prepared and comfortable with all the details. Come wedding day, the staff was extraordinary. The servers were all so accommodating and professional. The banquet manager, Coni, was awesome. The bridal attendant, Roni, attended to every need and beyond. All of my decorations were setup to my exact vision and surpassed my expectations. Our guests absolutely LOVED the food. Some told us it was the best wedding food they ever had. Everything was perfect.

My new husband and I had a great experience planning our wedding at the Talamore. Since we had a November wedding we had to have ceremony and reception inside but it all flows so smoothly. The grand staircase provided a very dramatic entrance to the ceremony and reception. We were able to take picture on the grounds while it was still light out and the courtyard allowed for perfect pictures at night. The food and signature cocktails were also raved about by our guests. Would recommend!

We were looking for an upscale wedding but at a more manageable price. That is exactly what we got. The staircase is a beautiful plus to this venue. All of our guests raved about the food and how well the special drinks were made. They were accomodating with all of the personal decorations and very helpful with setup. I would definitely refer a couple to this venue on the value alone.

Our wedding experience was a dream! My husband and I got married on 11/8/24 and everything went as planned. Or as close to perfect as we could imagine. We got our own attendant to make sure we had everything we needed all day. Having access to the bridal suite all morning gave us a fun environment to get ready without the worry of space or running late. Clean up was super easy and I was able to enjoy the day ! Overall great experience and was well worth the price!

Talamore Country Club is a magical place that brought my vision of a perfect wedding day to life. Karen was always responsive, patient, professional and helpful. She made what would normally be an anxious or stressful time, bearable filled with resolutions and accommodations. The food was amazing! The staff was attentive! The venue was beautiful and spacious. The Talamore provided a welcoming and beautiful experience for me and my family that we will forever be grateful for. Our guest are raving about the food and most of all, The Donut Wall!!!

The team at Talamore was a delight to work with. Karen, Our representative was always willing to take a call and allow us to come visit the venue multiple times. She was very informative and wanted to make sure our day went well. The food and the service from the staff at Talamore were great. The grounds are beautiful. The venue was nice and clean and presentable. Everybody was pleasant and provided quality service and wanted to make sure our day went well. We did experience a few technical issues with sound and video; so my advice to anyone is to try to make sure the venues devices work well before the day of your wedding, confirm with them that they work. Our guests really enjoyed their time at Talamore for our wedding. I would recommend this establishment for other future brides.

My husband and I got married at Talamore on October 26, 2024, and we truly couldn’t have asked for a better day! The weather was perfect, and the grounds looked absolutely gorgeous with the vibrant fall colors and seasonal decorations. Even days later, we’re still hearing from guests who say it was one of the best weddings they’ve attended.
The venue itself was stunning, allowing us to use three beautiful rooms for our 170 guests. The food was outstanding, thanks to Chef Nick, and Karen, our point of contact for nearly a year, helped with every single detail and handled my countless questions with such patience. They decorated everything exactly as I had envisioned—it was simply breathtaking.
I highly recommend Talamore Country Club for your wedding or any special event—it’s the perfect venue, and you won’t regret it! We almost chose to elope, but I’m so glad we didn’t.

We could not be happier that we chose Talamore to host our wedding. We worked with Mark McCool, who was so kind and extremely knowledgable about all things wedding. He made the entire planning process so easy and stress free for us. The food was phenomenal…so many options to choose from throughout the entire night. The indoor atmosphere is elegant and the outdoor landscapes are beautiful for pictures. The bridal party was able to get ready in the bridal suite prior to the ceremony which made things run so smoothly. People are still raving about how beautiful our wedding day was, and about how much fun they had. 10/10 would recommend Talamore to anyone looking to get married in the furure!

He was our go to for everything from booking to being there on the wedding day. He was very responsive and was always happy to answer any questions. All the staff were so kind, responsive, and truly wanted our day to be perfect. I’m so happy with our decision to have our special day at Talamore.

We got married in May at the Talamore and everything was flawless from the initial call to the end of our wedding reception. The venue itself was breathtaking. The ceremony space overlooking the greenery was picture-perfect and the ballroom was elegant; I especially found the grand staircase to be a beautiful focal point. The staff had set everything up exactly as we had envision, and the attention to detail was incredible.
We worked closely with Karen in the months leading up to the wedding. She was patient, responsive, and was able to provide assistance when needed. Roni, our bridal attendant, was perfect in every way. She was attentive with our needs and we could not have gotten through the day without the two of them.
Our guests raved about the food, even days later. No one left hungry and we received many compliments from the appetizers to the dinner to the decadent dessert buffet. There was not a negative thing I could say about the Talamore Country Club. If you are looking for a stunning venue with impeccable service and delicious food, look no further!

Working with the Talamore was easy and enjoyable through the entire process of planning our wedding. Karen was so helpful throughout as our event specialist, and the event staff on the day of our wedding were fantastic. Ronni was so attentive and took great care of us on our wedding day as our day of wedding coordinator. She was so helpful in cleaning up afterwards and making sure we got all our belongings. She made sure we didn't have to worry about a thing. We could not have asked for a more perfect day in every aspect. We had a wonderful experience holding our wedding here. Thank you, Talamore!

Talamore Country Club was great for our wedding in May 2023! The grounds are beautiful and we got great photos around them and in the club. The ballroom is beautiful with its high ceilings and grand staircase. The space is large and it fit our 138 guests quite comfortably. Karen was great to work with and answered my many questions via email and in person. The food was delicious as well and my guests could not stop talking about the cocktail hour! The mashed potato bar was a hit and I highly recommend choosing that as one of the stations. Can't recommend Talamore enough and I wish I could get married there all over again!

We had the pleasure of having our wedding at Talamore Country Club! It was beautiful, unique and truly perfect for my husband and I. We loved the elegant details throughout the property. Mark and the staff were top notch from the first tour to the end of our night. Mark was so outgoing and personable and a pleasure to work with! He was also very flexible and responsive with regards to scheduling venue visits and kept us informed of upcoming "due dates" for certain decisions to be made regarding layouts and decorations which really helped our day go smoothly! And of course nothing was set in stone.....last minute decisions or changes were not a problem and they wanted our day to be exactly how we wanted it and were willing to make anything we needed to happen, happen! The venue is beyond beautiful. All our guest raved about our stunning venue, the delicious food, and the kind and amazing staff! They are very accommodating and devoted to making your special day perfect. This place is a hidden treasure.

We had our wedding this July at Talamore Country Club. The venue is beautiful, the coordinators and all staff are fabulous, and there are plenty of delicious food options for guests to enjoy from start to end. We had the pleasure of working with Mark. Mark was very kind and patient guiding us through the entire process and answering all of our questions; he truly brought all of our visions to life. The day of Mark had everything perfectly in place and kept the night moving within our timeline; Ronnie was there the day of as well and was so sweet and attentive. I highly recommend Mark and Talamore Country Club.

We got married at Talamore earlier this year, at the end of April, and had an amazing experience throughout the planning process and on the day of. Karen, our point of contact in the lead up to the day, was attentive, responsive, communicative, and always ready to answer any questions we had by email or by phone. I stopped by many times, to test the audio, look for photo spots, sign off on napkins, do the tasting, etc and she was so kind and thoughtful throughout it all! We And everything was seamless on the day of -- the venue looked beautiful, and the staff were so kind to us, and when one of the guests had a medical scare I really felt they were looking after us. They also have an amazing package in terms of value and cost. The food was amazing, and the fact that they include in their pricing a cake from Night Kitchen Bakery PLUS a doughnut wall was very well received by guests :) I definitely recommend this venue to anyone in the area looking for something elegant, beautiful, well planned, and not insanely expensive.

I had my wedding at Talamore Country Club on November 6th. Honestly, Karen was Amazing! She was who I worked with up until my ceremony was over. Super responsive and made sure I didn't forget any items. The day of coordination and support was great, any questions she was available upon request and we were able to stay on schedule.
Having a stress free event because your venue was really helpful is really important!! Highly recommend. I had a signature mocktail at my event that Talamore did for me and everyone loved the service!

I cannot stress enough how amazing my wedding at Talamore CC was. I had the pleasure of working with Mark, and Mark went above and beyond to make sure my wedding day was as perfect as possible. From booking our initial wedding day to postponing due to Covid, Talamore made everything as stress free as possible. The venue was stunning and my guests still rave about how great the food was at our wedding. Also, my bridal attendant, Ronnie, was life saver. If it wasn't for her, we would probably still be bustling my dress. I do not have a single regret booking with Talamore and would highly recommend them to anyone.

If you get the chance to work with Mark do it! He's super informative, and super helpful. They were flexible with us postponing because of covid. He is super friendly to work with. He made sure everything was going smoothly for the night, the vendors had what they needed, and my husband and I were a priority on having a good time! The venue is absolutely gorgeous. We got married in the Conservatory ballroom which has 2 floors, high ceilings and a beautiful staircase. We were making changes due to people canceling up until the week of the wedding and he was super helpful and kept me calm the whole time. The staff at Talamore is also amazing! If you get the chance to have your wedding or any event at this gorgeous venue, do it. The staff and event planners were truly amazing. Not only was the staff amazing, but so was the food. Our meals were delicious and the guests keep telling us how amazing their food was. The guests also loved the venue and had such a great time as well. Thank you Mark & Talamore Country Club for making our day so special.

Talamore CC was the best venue choice for my husband and I. We live in Bucks County, and a lot of venues in our area (and Philadelphia area) are extremely overpriced and you get paid little attention. Talamore is AMAZING! Karen was our coordinator and Roni helped us as well the day of the wedding, and they did not disappoint. Karen was so responsive for every silly question I had (and I had many!!) especially during the pandemic. Karen makes every decision so easy for you and really supports you through every step of the process. Planning a wedding did not feel stressful like a lot of people tell you because I had the best venue! The venue itself is absolutely stunning inside and out, and they also made recent renovations so it's even more beautiful than it was when we initially booked. The day of the wedding they take all the stress or anxiety you may have away because they do everything for you!! Roni even helped me change my shoes after the ceremony! The food is served hot and tastes incredible, the bartenders make amazing drinks and are fast, and everyone who works there is kind, helpful and knowledgeable! My wedding day started off as any bride wants it to, with pouring, sideways rain... and Karen let me wait until the last minute to make a decision for an indoor/outdoor ceremony. The rain stopped just in time for an outdoor ceremony, and they rest was history!! We had our ceremony in June and let me tell you, the property is just breathtaking. We also saw the venue in the fall when we initially chose Talamore, and it was beautiful then too!! I don't have enough words to thank them for all the help and personal touches they had for my husband and I for our wedding day. I would choose Talamore over and over again for a wedding venue HANDS DOWN!

Talamore was amazing! Me being a little bit of a control freak, Andrea and Mark really made feel comfortable loosening the reigns a little bit. Throughout the entire process, any question I had they answered promptly and were very accommodating. The venue is so pretty and not your typical ballroom as it has a mezzanine level overlooking the main floor and beautiful chandeliers as well as a gorgeous staircase going to the second floor. Our bridal consultant the day of the wedding was so attentive and never even had to ask for anything, she was always there to help. The food was absolutely AMAZING! Our special day went perfect thanks to Mark and Talamore and would 100% recommend to anyone!

Recently got married at Talamore Country Club and can not say enough about the venue / coordinators and staff.
First, Karen Ferry was the absolute best. I couldn't imagine having our wedding without her. She was so personable / friendly and yet professional. She was always available (even on her days off) and helped us out more than we can count.
In regards to the venue, it literally speaks for itself.
More importantly was the staff. Everyone talked about how amazing the staff was and their attention to detail.
We selected the masterpiece package and it was worth every penny.
At Talamore and with Karen as our host we weren't customers, we were family.

Best choice ever - a beautiful memory forever! We live in Maryland but I am originally from Pennsylvania. We knew it made sense to get married in PA because my family is larger and especially since the Philly airport is close for out of town guests. I found Talamore on TheKnot late one night. I told myself I didn't want a country club wedding but would look anyway. We immediately fell in love!!! It is classy and spacious. The ballroom is stunning. The natural light was perfect for our brunch wedding. We even took photos out on the tennis court! Mark McCool was so patient with my many emails and requests. I also had an outside day-of-coordinator because I wanted certain vendors not part of the preferred list as well as help with timeline, design, etc. Mark McCool was so welcoming to working with her! If there was a problem at the wedding I definitely did not know about it thanks to him. They brought us mimosas to the bridal suite. Guests are still raving about the food - especially the whipped potato bar at cocktail hour! I loved that we also got to taste test food, a cake was included in our package from the amazing Bredenbecks. The list really goes on and on. My husband's family did not get to see Talamore before the wedding because they live in California. They were blown away!!!

We chose Talamore Country club as our wedding reception venue on December 7, 2018 – and we could not have made a better choice. My husband’s family were members of the club for a long time and knew the place inside and out. We had our cocktail hour on the second floor of the conservatory, and the dinner and dancing on the main floor. We did a buffet for dinner and had about 130 guests total. The initial planning process was fun, but a little scattered. A year out, our first planner gave us a tour of the facility, gave us recommendations for planning and helped us try and visualize what we want as far as décor. From that, we chose it as our venue and looked forward to the planning process. Our first planner got an opportunity outside of Talamore, so then we were paired up with Andrea – and we could not have been happier with her! We live in Florida, so my mother in law was such a huge help with communication and site visits throughout the year long process. Andrea and her clicked instantly, and we knew we were going to be well taken care of. On the big day, Andrea was so attentive and caring – she would have done anything we asked for. However, she was so good that we did not have to ask for anything on that day – she had everything covered. She’s a very sweet person, and amazing at her job. We want to thank Talamore for pairing her up with us because we could not have been happier with her. The food, the décor, the set up was perfect and we are so grateful to the Talamore team. I would recommend them to anyone as a wedding reception venue, and I have seen pictures of their ceremony set-ups – and those look beautiful as well. Thank you!

Karen made our wedding dreams come true. She worked very diligently with me over 10 months to totally nail our wedding with 305 guests. Yes, 305. Each guest has since raved about the venue, and the food. The service was impeccable and most importantly Joe and I, along with our families had the time of our lives. We were able to choose multiple entrees, offered bottles beer instead of draft, had fantastic appetizers, and the venue looked spectacular. I went to a wedding here when I was 19, and knew I wanted to have my future wedding here, because it is amazing. Karen gave me huge pointers along the way, and really become a close friend during what can be a stressful time. She even let us come in and do our first look at the venue, way before the reception started. If you are looking for a wedding with a very elegant feel, amazing food, a huge dance floor, a mezzanine, or amazing coordinators...look no further! We would do it over and over again if we could! Thank you Karen, and Talamore! We had the best wedding day ever thanks to you!!!!!!

My wife and I absolutely loved having the wedding at Talamore. I would unequivocally recommend Andrea Bradley as a wedding coordinator to anybody/anytime/anywhere, period. She is a special person working at a special place, which made the experience an unforgettable one.
I'd argue the food at Talamore is the best around, the staff is the most helpful, the venue is the most beautiful, and the entrance down the staircase is THE single-best reception entrance for a wedding party/couple in Philadelphia.
The patio for Happy Hour is awesome for guests, and I had people all night complimenting us on the venue and specifically that cocktail hour was the best one they've been to, for the combination of food quality, bar/butler service, and the VIEWS.
Our wedding day was amazing, and we couldn't be more appreciative to Andrea Bradley and the Talamore staff for making it a special day and experience.

My husband and I both agree that we honestly couldn't have picked a better venue for our wedding. Early in our planning we had to cross off numerous venues from our list for various reasons and had to start over from scratch. A Google search led me to find Talamore Country Club. From the beginning we said we really didn't want to have our wedding at a hotel or a country club, but there was something about the photos on their webpage (particularly the ones of the beautiful brick courtyard) that lead us to book an appointment to meet with them. We ended up visiting on a dreary, rainy day...and even on a dreary, rainy day we absolutely fell in love with the place.
We worked with Mark McCool through the planning process and he was really wonderful to work with. He was great about answering all of our questions (oh, and there were a lot of them!) in a timely manner and was a huge help with the overall planning process, giving us advice and tips that proved to be exceptionally helpful. We also loved how flexible he was with our planning (if we needed to change something, move something to a different room, change something on the menu, etc, he did everything to accommodate!) We also appreciate that we never felt pressured into anything.
The wedding day itself was wonderful. All of the staff at Talamore were great (I lost count of the number of staff members who wished us "congratulations!") and everyone (especially Mark and my bridal attendant Krista) were quick to make sure we got anything we needed. And oh, the food! The FOOD! We did a brunch wedding, so we had a nice mix of breakfast and lunch items and so many of our guests were raving about the food even days later. (I'm still gabbing with guests about the amazing waffles they made!)
I couldn't recommend Talamore more highly!

Talamore Country Club was absolutely amazing. My wedding day could not have gone any better. Mark McCool was perfect from the very initial time we spoke by email when I first contacted Talamore. He responded quickly and was patient and helpful throughout the whole entire process. The day of the wedding, there was not ONE glitch. The food was delicious. We had the chicken champignon and the beef wellington. I am still getting compliments on the food. Not to mention how beautiful their outside is and even the ballroom. My pictures came out even more amazing because of that! We also added the Philly Station as a late-night snack, which was a huge hit. The night before the wedding, we were allowed to come over and bring over all of our decorations, and actually set most of it up. This helped with cutting down the time needed for that on the actual wedding day. We were also allowed to do our pictures before the wedding, which allowed for my husband and I to actually be able to enjoy our cocktail hour. I highly recommend Talamore. You will not be dissapointed!!

From start to finish, it is Talamore's goal to ensure that your wedding day goes as perfectly as you have imagined it!
Our wedding coordinator was Mark, who will review and repeat all details (both large and small) as many times as you need. Mark toured the facility with my parents and I in the winter and gave recommendations based on his decades of experience. He shared pictures to show what we could expect to see in bloom for our summer wedding. Then when I took my fiancé back, Mark repeated the process! The food tasting was lovely! There were so many options, and it was like being out for dinner; the staff is helpful, courteous, and allows you to take your time with each course.
The day of our wedding, the facility was decorated exactly as envisioned! We were able to sneak a peek during some downtime prior to guests arriving. While my husband and I took pictures, our guests enjoyed a signature drink that they raved about, and a plentiful assortment of hot/cold hors d'oeuvres. The grounds are nothing short of spectacular in the summer, from the wooden bridge to the gazebo, to the beautiful hills of the golf course. Krista, our bridal attendant, inconspicuously aided Mark in overseeing the smooth running of our entire reception. Afterwards, they package all your personal items to be picked up later. We cannot say enough positive things about Talamore, the staff, and the wonderful experience we had! Thank you so much!

The Talamore Country Club is a fantastic venue. During our research it was one of the only venues that offered that option to bring in your own caterer and use a different bakery than what they offered. Despite this, the menu Talamore offered was too enticing (and ended up being amazing), and the bakeries they partnered with ended up being excellent.
The venue is beautiful, and the options offered are all fantastic. The vendors they've partnered with are all high-quality and flexible, which made the entire wedding planning process easier. Even more, our wedding coordinator, Andrea, was responsive and attentive to all our questions and needs.
The wedding was perfect day of. Frankly speaking, I have no idea if there were any issues in the background. Food was perfect, set up was great, and the night was incredible.
The only issue to highlight would be that our coordinator changed between our reservation (more than a year before our wedding date) and one of our payments. It wasn't until we reached out to Talamore that we started hearing more from them. We aren't sure if this is standard or not, and the great experience after that more than makes up for it.
Ultimately, we would recommend the Talamore Country Club for anyone who intends to have a wedding in Pennsylvania.

If I could give Talamore 100 stars I would! From day one they took down every single detail to make our special day perfect. Karen was so amazing and attentive. I emailed her with ideas throughout the year and she threw it all together flawlessly. The staff the day of were so kind to my guests and made my husband and I feel at home. The grounds are absolutely beautiful and the food is yummy!!

Les Jardins is a beautiful venue, and we got beautiful pictures from the three rooms we used inside as well as on the grounds beforehand. We had a daytime wedding, and the sun comes right through the large windows in the main ballroom, even on a day that was a little rainy. They were also very accommodating and allowed us to bring in an outside caterer (we already hired a BBQ pit master for a pig roast). Karen was easy to work with and coordinated well with our caterer and our other outside vendors (DJ, photographers, photobooth), and we didn't notice any gaps in service. While we had someone getting us our drinks for us, we heard from our guests that the bartenders were great.

Les Jardins/Talamore Country Club did a great job with our wedding! They managed to arrange our dream outdoor garden ceremony, even with the threat of rain! The food and decor was wonderful! Karen did a great job from start to finish with everything and was very responsive to our questions and concerns. Krista stayed by my side and helped so much to make sure that I ate and had everything I needed! My only concern was that a staff member and golf member of the golf course were extremely rude to our photographer as well as my husband and I when we were taking photos on the bridge. Karen assured me that she would find out who they were and handle it and I believe she did. My advice to Talamore would be to keep the golfers and staff with golf carts away from people that are spending that much money to have special outdoor photos on those grounds. Other than that everything was what we hoped it would be! Thank you to the staff at Les Jardins/Talamore!

We cannot say enough good things about Talamore Country Club!! I knew as soon as I was looking for venues that I wanted to visit Talamore. The minute we met with Karen and saw the grounds and ballroom we were hooked! Our coordinator, Karen was so helpful from the very beginning and kept us sane throughout the whole planning experience! She was knowledgeable and caring and she made everything a breeze right up and through our day! The grounds were absolutely stunning and I knew they would be a perfect backdrop for our wedding photos and they did not disappoint! The ceremony location outside under the pergola was stunning! Our guests are still raving about the abundance of food we had at our cocktail and dessert hour! The spreads were absolutely amazing and the quality of the food was out of this world! Thank you so much to Karen and the whole Talamore team for making our day absolutely perfect!We are so thankful that we chose Talamore, we wish we could relive the day over and over again!

Absolute fantastic experience at this club! Our event planner, Mark McCool, went above and beyond expectations to work with us on every aspect of the wedding. After having seen over a dozen other venues, we felt Talamore was the one for us not only because of its absolute beauty and sophistication, but because its staff was welcoming and just amazing to work with. This is especially true since our wedding was an ethic (Pakistani) wedding, so there were definitely some challenges, but which Mark took in stride and ironed out for us every single time. It's certainly true when they say that a party planner makes the wedding experience all the better, simply because you no longer have to deal with any hassle and can just enjoy your upcoming Big Day. And since the Talamore Country Club provides you with one of their experienced planners from the get-go, it's an all around win-win situation.
In short, if you're looking for a beautiful venue with breathtaking views both inside and out, I couldn't recommend Talamore highly enough. It's been almost 3 months since our wedding and, even now, our wedding is the talk of many social gatherings among friends and family. This is all thanks to the great people at Talamore, most especially Mark. Thank you again for the wonderful memories!!

Our wedding at Talamore was absolutely perfect and everything we could have hoped for! My husband and I knew it was the venue for us the minute we walked in. The outside ceremony space in the gardens is beautiful. The inside ceremony space is just as beautiful with the elegant double staircase. We ended up taking advantage of the inside space because of the weather, which ended up being the best thing ever. It was truly a fairy tale entrance walking down the staircase and the aisle. It was perfect for our first look and our Beauty and The Beast entrance to the reception. The food was absolutely delicious as well! Guests were raving about the Crab Cakes and Beef Wellington. We also cannot thank our coordinator Karen enough for all the hard work she put in to making our day so special! She was kind, accommodating, and very knowledgeable! We were so confident and had no worries going into the day of wedding because of her expertise. She always made herself available and was quick to answer any questions we had. We also want to thank Krista, our bridal attendant, who stuck by our side all night making sure we always had a drink, were eating food, and had everything we needed. Karen, Krista, and the whole Talamore team were amazing! We are so happy we chose Talamore for our wedding!!

Our wedding at Talamore Country Club in Ambler, PA was everything we could have hoped for. From the beautiful Gardens to the grand staircase in the Conservatory reception hall, the venue itself was fantastic. There was plenty of space for all of our 265 guests and beautiful scenery for our wedding pictures. Mark McCool was a great host and helped us from the very beginning to make sure all of our needs were met. He helped ensure our table centerpieces were placed, arranged for us to have a rehearsal with use of the actual speakers/sound system to help us practice our wedding party entrances, and provided both the groomsmen and bridesmaids with separate private gathering rooms to use throughout the entirety of our wedding day. This was a big help as we had an Indian style ceremony in the early afternoon and a Western style reception later in the evening, so the rooms were necessary for us to get changed and take more pictures in. Mark kept in contact with us via email and phone over countless messages we sent him about every random detail that came to mind, and he definitely helped put us at ease and make sure our big day went smoothly. Furthermore, all the rest of the staff at Talamore that we encountered were incredibly nice and attentive. Everything went perfectly and we definitely recommend using Talamore for your big day!

I truly don't know where to begin. I had the worst experience with Talamore. The first tour my fiance and I took we immediately fell in-love with the venue. Little did we know, we were about to be misguided and given the wrong information from the start. We were told we would get a 10% discount if we booked so far out in advance and that we would be the only wedding the day that we chose. We then went back for a second tour with our parents and all the details we originally planned for were changed. We now couldn't have the 10% discount unless we booked 10 months or less from our wedding date and we now had to pay 6K extra to rent out the other ballroom to be the only wedding. This left a horrible taste in our mouths and knew things were only going to get worse with this place. Although the grounds and the Ballroom were gorgeous, I would not recommend Talamore. I am glad this horrible experience happened to us because we eventually found our perfect venue and coordinator who knew what they were doing and wouldn't go back on their word.

I cannot stress enough how pleased I am with having our wedding here. We just got married on May 27th, 2018. Mark McCool was beyond a pleasure to work with. He honestly was the reason why we chose this venue. He answered all of my questions up front and through email the week before we finally booked the venue. That is what made me choose this venue. He was so prompt with answering my questions in a timely manner. Not to mention, the venue is absolutely incredible. We were so blessed to have our wedding here. The staff was beyond incredible, thoughtful, professional, and constantly made sure myself and the groom were having a great time at the wedding. Mark wanted to make sure it was everything we dreamed of and it truly was. He made me feel so at ease and completely stress free that day. The guests even complimented his professionalism and how amazing he was. We absolutely love the Talamore. I would get married here over and over and over again!! Thank you Mark and the rest of the INCREDIBLE staff at the Talamore. You guys are the BEST!!!!!!

I don't even know where to start. Karen was amazing the first day I met her. I didn't look at any other vendors after meeting with her. She was kind, funny, and friendly. Anytime I sent an email or needed to meet with her she made herself available. My husband and I, Tim, got married on 3/18/18 and everything was perfect due to Karen's expertise and the love she actually has for her profession. From the bottom of my heart Karen, thank you! Another person who deserves a shout out is Krista. She stuck by my side all night making sure that between photos and bathroom breaks that I ate and didn't need anything. Big ups to the entire Talamore team, you guys rock!

The Talamore Country Club was absolutely perfect. We had the pleasure of working with Karen Ferry, a delightful, knowledgeable, patient, and incredibly helpful person. She made sure all of our questions were answered, every concern was addressed, and everything was perfect from day 1. On the day of, Karen and two other ladies (I apologize for forgetting their names) made sure we had anything we could possibly need. All 3 were calming presences, just in case. Two really sweet things: Pre-ceremony, Karen was lovely and reminded us all to breathe and directed the timing of the walk down the aisle and, then, post-ceremony, she and the bridal attendant stood at the top of the aisle as my husband and I exited and handed us each a glass of champagne with a wish of congratulations. The bridal attendant walked with us to let us know we had food in the bridal suite and asked if we wanted a glass of our signature drink. Furthermore, the food was perfect, the servers were lovely, and the bartenders were delightful. To top it off, the Conservatory Ballroom was breathtaking. It was large, but felt intimate and the views from the first and second floors were absolutely gorgeous. After the reception, we didn't feel rushed to leave and Karen, of course, offered to help carry things out for us. All in all, I could not have asked for a more perfect venue.

There is so much to say about the Talamore and Karen Ferry our wedding coordinator. From the start we knew it was the right place for us. Karen helped us through everything.
This is the place where you dream of having the perfect wedding. From the beautiful photographic grounds to the elegant interior and ballroom, this place is a dream come true. The outdoor ceremony setup with the lake and swans in the background, you couldnt ask for better scenery. The staff were on point with everything from the moment we arrived to the moment we left. Our family and friends are still ranting and raving about the wonderful time they had, including the food (which is out of this world).
If you are lucky enough to work with Karen Ferry, you will not be disappointed. She was very professional, experienced, and thorough. she assured us the whole way through and made sure that the wedding day went according to plan. She went above and beyond our expectations and we were very happy with her service. Every detail of the day was coordinated by Karen and we wouldnt have had it any other way!
I highly recommend Talamore to anyone looking for the perfect wedding venue.

We just had our wedding there August 9, 2017 and it was the best day of our lives and a gorgeous venue. We cannot thank Mark and the wonderful staff at Talamore Country Club enough for everything they've done to make our day so special! Mark is awesome! He is always available and ready to help in any way he can. He wants you to have the wedding you've been planning for your whole life. No matter the question or concern, Mark always had an answer or a solution. The food was amazing for dinner and cocktail hour. There's plenty of hor'dourves at cocktail hour (I recommend the lamb chops; they were a crowd favorite) that no guest will leave hungry. Our wedding day was from the ceremony to the reception was absolutely perfect. It was dream come true. I would definitely recommend Talamore to everyone!! You will not be disappointed. Thank you again for everything Mark and Talamore!!

I highly recommend Talamore! My husband and I had our wedding reception there on September 23rd. We originally stopped there on a whim because we were in the area and decided to check it out. We didn’t have an appointment but our soon-to-be event specialist, Maureen was very welcoming and accommodating. We immediately fell in love with every detail of the place and booked it a few days later. To this day, we are still receiving so many compliments from our guests about every aspect of the day.
Talamore had exactly what we wanted for our cocktail hour...the Monet Garden Room opens onto the patio where you can take in the gorgeous scenery. The Conservatory Ballroom alone is absolutely stunning as well. The staircase leading up to the balcony is beautiful and the balcony offered a separate space for guests to hang out, as well as helped to get some pretty cool pictures of the dance floor. There are so many beautiful spots all around Talamore that make for fantastic pictures.
The food was delicious. Some of the favorite hors d’oeuvres were the bacon-wrapped scallops (totally worth the up-charge), the pigs in a blanket, tempura asparagus, and shrimp casino. All three entrees we had were raved about — beef wellington, salmon francaise, and chicken champignon.
The staff at Talamore is great. Maureen was our event specialist and was amazing! We could not have asked for a better person to help us through all the planning. She was very helpful with every question and concern we had. Krista was our bridal attendant the night of our wedding. She was very nice and attentive. All of the staff were polite, helpful, and dedicated to making it the best night of our lives.
I am in a friend’s wedding at Talamore next August and we can’t wait to go back!
