The Lodge at Liberty Forge

play, but it has always been my dream to get married at a gazebo, so it was worth it to me. They also have a tented patio for outdoor ceremonies that could be a back-up location in case of rain, and that's where our cocktail hour was. The reception was inside, and the room is beautiful with huge windows overlooking the golf course and high beamed ceilings. One of the best things was that they take care of everything--food, bar, tables/chairs, setup of decorations and favors, etc. The food was SO good. A wedding cake was also included from a local bakery, and we could choose flavors/design. It was really good, too. But the most amazing part of having our wedding at Liberty Forge was Christie Griest (sales rep/event manager). She is fabulous and worth her weight in gold. She was our contact throughout the whole planning process, answering all my questions quickly, and I really don't think I would have been able to get through it without her, especially the day of. She ran through the rehearsal with us the night before and was there the day of to get my bridesmaids and I over to the site, give us our cues to walk down the aisle, even straighten out my train behind me as I started down the aisle, take my veil back to the dressing room downstairs before the reception and bring me my clutch. She paid attention to everything we talked about throughout 10 months of planning and made me feel important and special, and I was so much more relaxed the day of our wedding because I knew Christie had everything under control and would tell me where I needed to be when and make sure I got there. I highly recommend Liberty Forge for a beautiful, high-quality, stress-free wedding!

istie answered all of my questions about options and services available at Liberty Forge through the Altland House. Christie was so flexible, scheduling meetings when it was convenient for us (I was living out of state at the time), and always took the time to look into the many questions I asked. One of my favorite things about Liberty Forge is that everything is included in your package! No need to coordinate tons of extra venders, Christie did all the work of helping us pick linens, chairs, meals, even the cake is included (The Couture Cakery was outstanding)! When we showed up on our wedding day, everything was perfectly placed and in order. Christie didn’t blink an eye when we were panicked about having a meal miscount, and quickly made arrangements to accommodate our two extra guests. Our guests raved about how beautiful the venue was, and the food was top notch! Overall, we are so glad we chose Liberty Forge as our wedding venue. Our day was perfect thanks to Christie!!

ere both full time students throughout most of our planning, and Christie was always emailing me making sure everything was in check. She is amazing at what she does. She took time out of her schedule to plan meetings with us to discuss details all the way, which was hard considering my husband and I had to travel into town for each one. Up to the big day, she was calm, cool, and collected, and so easy to work with. My family absolutely adored her! On my wedding day, the florist forgot to give us a basket for the flower girl! With minutes to spare, Christie searched around and put together a basket herself for my wedding! She was quick on her feet, handled any little bumps along the way, all the while making sure my husband and I were enjoying ourselves. She is very in tune with what she does, and she is a sweetheart! We are so glad we chose Liberty Forge for our Big Day, the venue is absolutely gorgeous and the staff is phenomenal! Thank you Christie! :)

mber, they have a decorated Christmas tree on one end of the dance floor as well as one in the main entrance. I'm sure this would also be a great venue for spring/summer. One side of the dance floor is floor to ceiling windows which offer a great view of the golf course. Staff is professional, friendly and easy to work with. Food was amazing. I got lots of compliments from my guests about food and the look of the venue in general. The cost was also very reasonable.

in the world. We had so many compliments on how great the food was and how beautiful Liberty Forge was. Our ceremony and reception and reception was held here and i couldnt have been happier. Thank you for making my wedding perfect!

the open sides allows for a great feeling for an outdoor wedding especially as it overlooks the pond w/ fountain and the lush greens of the golf course. They have different wedding packages available for different price points. They are so extremely helpful and accommodating. They take care of just about everything you would need for the reception (included in the packages) and if there's something you don't want in the package they will give you a credit (reduce the price per head) for it. They took care of all of the set-up and made the entire process easy and seamless! And Christie was a delight to work with! On the wedding day, she was always checking on me and the groom (and the entire bridal party) to make sure everything was okay. She made sure to fluff my dress before I walked down the aisle, made sure the servers kept coming out to our group while getting photos during the cocktail hour so that our family and bridal party weren't missing out on the food and drinks, and during the reception was checking in with me and the groom to see if we needed anything to drink and or anything else. Christie made sure everything ran smoothly and it couldn't have gone any better thanks to her! I can't say enough good things both about Liberty Forge and Christie!!!

great pictures, even though it was raining. we had the ceremony outside on the covered patio, and everything else was inside. everything we got for the price we paid was phenominal!!!!

of events, they made sure everything went on without any issues. The room was exactly how I'd pictured it! Liberty Forge made my wedding day an absolute success! Thanks to their hard work I will always remember what a special day my wedding was. They have my highest recommendation!

ce!

few problems getting in contact someone when we needed to, but everything worked out beautifully in the end. The only thing we did not like was there was no staff member around to guide our receiving line. As my husband and I greeted each guest we had to tell them how to get inside to the cocktail hour. The food/drink was great, a little pricy, but still delicious. We had a great ceremony and reception which is what we will always remember.

satisfied... and I totally was!
