The Oakley

hat she provided was extremely helpful! We went with Redwood Steakhouse for catering and Ruby Slipper for the beautiful farmhouse tables! Our wedding was perfect! I received so many compliments from our guests about the different places to hang out! It is such a flexible venue that you can truly make your own! I HIGHLY recommend The Oakley to whoever is planning their next big event!

rk with, both day-of and during the planning process; they are sweet, responsive, and incredibly organized! When we had an issue with a vendor, Alicia did not hesitate to step in to help us. Kathy and Ken were just as kind and generous, going out of their way to help in any way they could. We could not have asked for a better experience for our wedding! We love The Oakley family!

y detail oriented and helped ensure that everything went off without a hitch on our big day. From vendor recommendations to creating ceremony and reception layouts to working with us to coordinate our wedding weekend timeline (we chose to rent The Estate and hosted our wedding party there), the staff at The Oakley made our wedding rehearsal and wedding day run seamlessly and completely stress free. We highly recommend the Oakley!

tion as well allowed us to celebrate our original wedding date with them in a small ceremony. You can feel how much they love being a space to celebrate and genuinely want the best for you. While we already had two weddings there, if we were going to go for a third it would totally be at The Oakley.

icia handled it with grace and let all my vendors know what was going on. I've been in contact with Alicia since 2018! She not only answers every single detailed question I throw her way, but she always got back to me same day! Sometimes even within the hour! Mark and I have nothing but amazing things to say about The Oakley. Every single guest had something nice to say and the night seemed effortless. Wow what a night and worth the wait! Thank you again from the bottom of our hearts The Bitonti's !

d were on top of everything that came at them (including a thunderstorm and a power outage). They made sure our day was perfect in every way and I couldn’t imagine it anywhere else.

credible. Then we postponed our reception to the following year and we couldn't have been happier. We received tons of compliments on the venue and as the bride and groom Alicia, Ken, Cathy and Lily were so sweet, attentive and such a blast to work with. We hope to be able to use the space again someday. Our day(s) were perfect and the venue was key.

We were drawn to The Oakley because of the absolute beauty of the venue but what helped us make a decision was working with Alicia and her team. Alicia was friendly, professional, and knowledgeable but also was like a supportive sister who is genuinely excited to celebrate your marriage. The McKay family was also so helpful and kind and we're so thankful to have worked with them! We received SO many compliments on how beautiful the venue was and having our wedding here was like a dream come true. We were confident our wedding day would be great because we were at The Oakley and it truly was! We can’t thank The Oakley team enough for everything!

state for the weekend, had the rehearsal dinner there Friday night and our Reception on Saturday in the venue. It was the best weekend of our lives and I could not recommend The Oakley more. Alicia, Cathy, and Ken made the day unforgettable and were on top of literally everything before and the weekend of the wedding and kept me sane. Our guests are still raving about how beautiful the grounds are, how great the McKay family is, and how much fun they had.

a pandemic. Alicia, Cathy, and Ken went above and beyond to make sure that we were able to have our dream wedding no matter the circumstances. They offered us multiple options and back up plans in case of any changes. We ended up having our wedding completely outdoors and it was beautiful. Everyone at The Oakley is so hands on and willing to help make the day a success. The made us feel like family for the weekend.

difficult, but Alicia's quick response to all of our emails, even on nights and weekends, made everything so much easier. During the COVID-19 situation, Alicia was so supportive and flexible, making herself available to talk through options and alternatives. When we decided cancelling our wedding was the best option for us personally, the Oakley continued to be supportive and showed that they truly just wanted us to be happy. It's in a crazy situation like COVID that we are grateful we chose a family run venue that was so kind and understanding during all of the uncertainty. While we didn't end up getting to host our day there, we will be recommending the Oakley to all of our family and friends and hopefully will get to go back!

get back with us! the owners are also extremely easy to work with, they made everything we wanted work without hesitation! The venue is kept so nice and so clean, and it alone is beautiful without decor! The grounds are kept so nice, with such a large variety of locations to take photos! Truly an amazing venue but even better when they are so easy to work with! Couldn’t have asked for a better wedding day and owe it all to them for making my day so magical!

prep work and day of troubleshooting last minute things that came up. I cannot say enough how beautiful the venue is. It was rustic and peaceful and romantic and airy and just so wonderful. It was so nice having the wedding and reception at the same location so everyone could truly sit back and relax at the wedding, cocktail hour, and reception. Guests were all over inside and outside, playing games, down by the pond, sitting by the fire, and visiting the horses. People felt like they truly got to relax and enjoy the day rather than running around driving to different locations for different parts of the day. It was so magical and everyone STILL keeps complimenting the wedding and how beautiful the venue was! I also can’t say enough about how convenient it was to get ready in the bridal suite the morning of. All the girls were at the venue and got to hang out and it allowed us more time to get photos rather than scramble to be somewhere else at a certain time. The guys got ready in the lower level of the estate the day of and had a great time playing cards and pool and just being guys. Everything about our wedding flowed so smoothly and was SO beautiful I would choose the Oakley over and over again! Best day ever thanks to the best venue and best staff ever!!!

ay the night on Friday- this worked out so wonderfully and everyone had a blast! The groomsmen got ready at the estate on Saturday morning, which worked out so well. The bridesmaids got ready in the bridal suite in the venue, which is so beautiful! Secondly, Alicia, Cathy, & Ken of The Oakley are a dream team. They went above and beyond for us all throughout the planning process and the weekend of our wedding. They were always willing to meet with us and so patient with our endless questions! Our wedding turned out better than we could have ever hoped! I would recommend The Oakley to everyone!!! The Oakley & the staff have a place in our hearts forever!! We couldn't have asked for anything more.

cKay family went above and beyond from the start to make sure our wedding was perfect. We stayed at the house with our out of town family and used the house to host our rehearsal dinner and Sunday brunch. Utilizing the house made our wedding that much more special-- we were able to have everyone together and it made set up and getting ready the day of so much easier and less stressful. Alicia and the entire family made sure our wedding was perfect and made sure everything went smoothly. The venue looked amazing on its own- other than our tables we didn’t have to worry about any additional decorations. The Oakley itself and the surrounding farm made for an amazing setting. Being able to utilize the outdoor space for cocktail hour and throughout the night made it so much more unique for our guests. We received compliments from our guests all night, and continuing today, about how amazing and unique the venue was. We would absolutely recommend The Oakley to anyone- it made our wedding day so perfect!

beyond gorgeous. Every guest was amazed and shocked to find such a gorgeous venue in Holly. The McKay's made sure every part of our day was perfect. If your wondering if you should book your event here....do it. You will be so glad you did! We even took our sunset pictures with their beautiful horses. I will look back on our wedding day and always be so thankful we got to choose The Oakley Events. Thank you for all you did!

d I live in England so we had to do most of our planning from overseas. Alicia did an amazing job coordinating with us and even attending some of our potential vendor meetings. I was quite nervous planning a wedding from so far away, but Alicia made it easy and answered all my questions and concerns at the drop of a hat. The actual wedding day went above and beyond my expectations! The bridal suite is so elegant and perfect for the pre-wedding photos of the bridal party! The ceremony space was also breathtaking with a view of their pond and the endless woods in the background. The photos of the ceremony came out beautifully and just as I wanted them! The venue itself, my guests would not stop talking about!! The chandeliers and the other lighting features were definitely a big hit with our guests! It was definitely one of our favourites too! Not only that, but the indoor/outdoor bar was perfect for our cocktail hour and reception! The venue is elegant and modern and beyond breathtaking. I could go on for days talking about the venue! But honestly, the Oakley is a beautiful venue that I recommend you take a look at! However, for me, the amazing venue wasn’t the only reason why I chose this location. In addition to this gorgeous venue, I got a loving and caring family that was willing to do anything to make sure our wedding day was everything we dreamed of. That is what made me choose this venue! I am so lucky and blessed to have been able to get married at the Oakley. Thank you so much to the McKay family for making our day so special! I can’t wait to see all the lovely weddings that take place here!

here was more than enough room. The co-owner and venue coordinator, Alicia, was very quick to respond to any questions I had and also had a lot of helpful recommendations. I was hoping to get some sunset pictures on their land and she even went as far as taking us out there on their golf cart so we didn’t have to walk and showed us the perfect spot. They’re super friendly and very organized! The entire day went by so smoothly.
