Turf Valley surpassed all of our expectations and was above and beyond! If we could do it all over again, we would do it exactly the same. Jenny B. was the catering director who coordinated everything for us the entire process. She is beyond fantastic. She answered my millions of emails and questions, she always had an answer to my questions, she always answered very quickly, she is just so reliable, patient, knowledgeable. You can tell she’s done a million weddings because she just knows everything. This helped make us feel SO calm while wedding planning because she, and everyone working there, is very trustworthy and professional. Our maitre D on the day of, was Gloria F. She was also amazing!!! She also had an answer to all our questions, she was extremely on top of things, she set up everything and broke it all down afterwards, made everything run smoothly. She even made sure we had drinks and food! She was above and beyond. I can’t say enough good things about Jenny and Gloria, as well as the whole staff there. They are all very very willing to help and give you a great experience - which they did. Even during the reception, they must have had two dozen servers because they were so incredibly quick and efficient bringing out the food like a well-oiled machine, they were very accommodating and helpful.
The venue itself was fantastic. Every single thing we ate - from the wedding dinner to the cocktail hour apps to the breakfast and lunches we ate at the restaurant all weekend - was exceptional. All our guests said this, and continue to tell us a month later. It was so awesome having our venue here because the hotel and after party and reception were all at the same place. I feel like that really made our wedding weekend. After the wedding, we all went to the hotel bar, the bartenders were great as well. We had 180 guests and there was enough room for everyone. It was great seeing all our friends and family Sunday morning having breakfast, and Friday night after our rehearsal, in the same place. The groomsmen and some of our guests even went golfing the Friday before, and they said the course is really awesome so that was very fun. We were in the Cameo ballroom and it was just absolutely perfect - perfect size, big dancefloor, patio overlooking the golf course.
By the way, all the vendors we booked were from Turf Valley’s preferred vendors, and they were all awesome as well.
Lastly, there were so many other events going on at the same exact time as ours. A staff member told us this was one of their busiest weekends and all the hotel rooms and all the event rooms were completely booked, including the one right next door to us. That did not impact us at all - didn’t even notice that was the case.
I am just so incredibly happy that everything went so smoothly and so great and that we chose this venue.
