The Vanderbilt was the perfect place to host our intimate wedding. We wanted our celebration to feel like a comfortable, upscale dinner party and the venue absolutely delivered. We had our ceremony poolside and cocktail hour and dinner in the garden. From the set up, to the excellent food, to the staff - everything made us feel at home. Although there were some staffing changes while we were planning, the hand-off between venue coordinators was seamless and everyone was responsive. Our guests loved the newly renovated and designed interiors. We would choose this venue again in a heartbeat.
Sandhya and her team were amazing! We held a pre-wedding 30-person family dinner here at the Conservatory and had Indian catering delivered, along with a henna artist for our family guests. Sandhya was incredibly helpful during the planning process - made sure all of our details were taken care of while also being very accommodating for our needs. On the day-of, she and her entire team were so attentive and thoughtful - I felt like royalty as the to-be bride! Thank you for helping us create such lovely memories!
