Where do I even begin? The Stone Terrace was truly a dream come true for our wedding. Pictures do not do this place justice, it’s absolutely stunning in person, and the staff is ju...
st as amazing. When we first toured the venue, we met Tricia, who showed us everything they could do to make our day perfect. There was zero pressure while we toured, just genuine care that made us so comfortable from the start.
Through the planning process, we worked more with Joelynn, who was so responsive and helpful. She always listened to my ideas, answered all of my questions, and offered great advice when I needed guidance. On the day of, both Tricia and Joelynn, along with the rest of the event staff, were completely flawless. They attended to us and our guests with ease, and everyone felt truly cared for.
The ballroom and ceremony space were decorated beautifully and it felt magical when we walked in. The food was incredible and our guests couldn’t stop raving about the meal! A few even asked for venue details afterward to plan their own events.
The entire experience had such a warm, family feel to it. Everyone at The Stone Terrace genuinely cared about our day and went above and beyond to make sure it was unforgettable. I truly don’t think any other venue could have matched what they did for us and our wedding!!

Our wedding at The Stone Terrace was absolutely amazing! From our very first meeting, Joelynn made us feel very comfortable and took the time to tour us around the ballroom and wal...
kthrough the different reception options. She was extremely responsive and made the entire wedding planning process stress-free. We fell in love with the beautiful chandeliers and elegant seasonal decorations in the Anthony room. Joelynn and Trish did a beautiful job decorating the room for our reception and made sure everything was perfect. The food at our reception and cocktail hour was incredible….so much so that we are still receiving compliments from our guests on the food even a month later! The service at the reception was excellent as well from the bartenders to the waiters and waitresses. Thank you very much to the entire Stone Terrace Team for making our wedding day perfect!

I'm not even sure where to begin with how thankful my husband and I are for Stone Terrace making our wedding day the most incredible, perfect day.
Stone Terrace holds an extremely ...
special place in our hearts, especially my husband who has known the Henry family for most of his life. When we got engaged, we didn't look at any other wedding venues and booked on the spot the day we toured Stone Terrace and all they have to offer when it comes to weddings.
Trish and Joelynn worked extremely close with us to plan every last detail and make our vision come to life. They answered every email I sent enthusiastically and made sure to double check all of the details with us multiple times before our big day.
When our wedding day came around, the weather was iffy. We had our rehearsal dinner at Stone Terrace and it poured the entire time. When we arrived on wedding day, it had rained that morning and our ceremony was scheduled for the beautiful Stone Terrace garden. With the clouds in the sky and all of our phones showing us different weather, our ceremony was originally set up for inside, and 1 hour before our 4:30pm ceremony, we were able to move everything outside and have the outdoor ceremony that dreamed of and planned for. Stone Terrace's staff adapted and changed to seamlessly, you'd never even know that the back up plan was set up inside.
If you've never eaten in the restaurant of Stone Terrace, you need to immediately. Our cocktail hour food and dinner tasted the exact same they would if you were sitting at a dinner table of 4, and they were cooking for 190+ people on our day. We enjoyed every bit of food we ate and countless guests have told us that it was, hands down, the best wedding food they've ever had in their lives.
The ballroom was absolutely stunning. The table settings were absolutely perfect, the sweetheart table in front of their brand new fireplace was incredible, and the bartenders/serves were flawless.
My husband and I are so thankful for Stone Terrace, John, Trish and Joelynn for giving us the best day ever. Please look no further for your wedding venue because Stone Terrace truly does it best. THANK YOU! <3
