The Rhodes Wedding
Reviewed on 3/24/2014 Danielle WWell I was just married on March 22, 2014. The Marlow House was the place and it was perfect. I wanted something small and I searched around the internet for venues. I came across the Marlow house. I realized I go right by there everyday and decided to just drop in one day.... Read More I was greeted by the owner Ms. Rebecca and she showed me around. I fell in love with the place and new this was it. I planned the wedding in 6 months and Ms Rebecca was very helpful. She was always there to pick up the phone when I had a question or a issue. She was open to when I just dropped by to get information. The Marlow House can Tailor make your event to fit you. That is exactly what they did for me. My day was the most wonderful day of my life. It was truly more than I thought it could be. I would recommend this venue to anyone.
Our Wedding
Reviewed on 4/13/2013 Shannon HSince I was a little girl, I have dreamed of my wedding day! I wanted it to be the most perfect day one could imagine! My now husband and I looked at 10+ venues around the area. We came to the Marlow House and immedietely we were greeted with a huge smile by Rebecca, which was... Read More different then any other venue. She showed us around The Marlow House, which was absolutey amazing. We then sat down to discuss prices. I loved it because you can create your own package depending on if you want DJ, food, ect. included, or just rent the venue. So after discussing it, my fiancee at the time and I knew The Marlow House is where we wanted to celebrate our special day with all of our friends and family. During the entire wedding process, I called and e-mailed Rebecca numerous times to discuss ideas that I had. She immedietly got back to me every single time, which is so nice because otherwise I would have been stressing.With the package we chose, which included catering and wedding cake, we were beyond pleased with the vendors, Confection Perfection and Adriane's Delectables. They were so helpfull. The Food was great, cake was beautiful, and actually tasted great... even a year later! People still tell us how amazing our wedding and food were! The day of the wedding, Rebecca set up everything and acted as a wedding coordinator. She helped with every single detail and informed me along the way with everything that was happening so I was assured our day would be perfect and just the way we wanted it! Something that we really loved, was the fact we could bring our own alcohol in and Rebecca would provide a well trained and very experienced bartender for a small fee!!! All the other venues we looked at wanted to charge a fee per person or have a cash bar which I thought was completely tacky. Also, I loved that she had so many choices of centerpieces and decorations that we could use! Rebecca's idea's and visions are exactly what I had always dreamed of as a girl. Our guest truly enjoyed themselves and I wouldn't have changed one single thing about our Wedding Day, or our experience(from start to finish) at The Marlow House!!!!!
Beautiful Holiday Wedding!
Reviewed on 1/15/2013 Nicole KThe Christmas decoration were beautiful and Rebecca really knows what she is doing. She planned out the timing for everything and made it worry free and was will to work with the fact there were so few guest.
Marlow House was absolutely beautiful. It is an excellent package. They offer so much and take care of so much of the stressful planning and it made the wedding extremely smooth and enjoyable (which I don't think a lot of people say about their weddings). I would highly... Read More recommend this venue. You can't get a better deal than the Marlow House.
Marlow House was the perfect venue for our wedding of approx. 70 people. Many more and I think the space would be crammed. The venue was a perfect mash up of our traditional values and esthetic and contemporary décor and perspective. The space looked downright romantic with the... Read More white walls, soft light, and the gray table clothes and pale pink and purple hydrangeas floral décor. Candles were the icing on the cake, so to speak. We loved having the front porch for the wedding itself, and the back porch to house the bar, leaving room inside for dancing. Karen was very accommodating, a real doll to work with. The bridal suite upstairs was great to get dressed and have a quiet moment post ceremony to ourselves. Make sure your ceremony has a microphone, as street noise and trains do happen, but did not dampen the mood or "ruin" the ceremony the least. Inside the venue main floor are 5 fireplaces you can use to hold photos, family momentos, etc. It helped make the space feel home for us, and gave our guests destinations to explore. I can't say how much I loved this venue.
The Marlow House was the perfect place for our wedding. We picked our date and planned our wedding in 7 weeks. Karen was just amazing to work with. She was always there to answer any questions in a timely manner. She was flexible as we changed plans. She is just a jewel.... Read More The food was fabulous! The floral arrangements were beautiful. The team that worked with me made this a very low stress event. The guest could not stop commenting on everything from the food to the house itself. I HIGHLY recommend the Marlow House.
Our wedding was on April Fools Day 2017, but it was anything but foolish to choose The Marlow House. It was beautiful and couldn't have been more perfect. The venue has a wonderful flow to the layout that allows for people to dance or chat, as they will. Karen was a delight to... Read More work with and was always available to help with suggestions or questions. The food and flowers were fabulous. The staff on the day of the wedding was incredibly helpful. We couldn't have been more pleased.
We recently had our wedding (11/6/2016--ceremony & reception) at The Marlow House, and it was an absolutely beautiful venue. The house has been renovated so that it is a mix of modern but without losing it's charming, historic features. The wedding planning was a breeze due to... Read More the packages, and there is plenty of room for a larger party or a more intimate gathering like our wedding. You are able to customize things as much or as little as you want as well. Our decorations were incorporated perfectly. Loved it!!
Just had our wedding at The Marlow House and it was absolutely everything I dreamed it would be! Perfect venue for a smaller wedding like ours. Rebecca, who is the coordinator, was nothing short of amazing and handled everything like a pro. She was extremely helpful through... Read More the whole process and was always flexible with meetings etc. All of our guests had a great time and were wowed with the decor of this historic house. Its the perfect blend of vintage charm and modern elegance. Our photographer had no shortage of photo opportunities with all of the stylish touches in every area. I can't wait to see the photos! Thank you Rebecca and team for giving us the wedding of our dreams!
Best day of my life!
Reviewed on 8/08/2012 Christina QThe Marlow House is a beautiful venue and is everything you could want! I got married on June 9th and am still receiving compliments on how beautiful the venue was! The coordinator, Rebecca, is also amazing! She had a schedule and made sure that everything went as planned.... Read More Rebecca made sure that we did not forget the toast, special dances, garter/bouquet toss, etc. Rebecca is also extremely flexible and is always willing to meet with you at anytime. It was also very stress-free knowing what caterer, cake, and DJ I was using instead of "shopping" around. It was a spectacular reception and I would HIGHLY recommend The Marlow House for future brides!!!
