Simply amazing
Reviewed on 11/22/2015 Sarah TWe recently had our wedding here and it was amazing!! Jessica was so helpful with the whole planning process-from the inquiry to the final set up! We had a brunch and had gone to their Sunday brunch for a "tasting" and we were satisfied with that but oh boy was our brunch... Read More AMAZING!! Usually wedding food is subpar. This was NOT the case. From the last minute ceremony change to the accommodation due to weather and everything in between. Villa Olivia is amazing.

Beautiful location for both ceremony and reception, Friendly and flexible staff
Reviewed on 7/18/2015 Britney TI got married at Villa Olivia in June of 2015. They have a pretty outdoor ceremony location as well as two beautiful banquet rooms. We got married in the Crystal Room, which has chandeliers and very nice view. It comfortably held our 130 guests and had plenty of room for our... Read More wedding band as well. My husband and I worked with Jessica, the banquet sales coordinator. She was amazing and so helpful during every step of the planning process. She and everyone else we worked with at Villa Olivia were very friendly and flexible. They set everything up for us the morning of our wedding and let us leave items in the bridal suite to be picked up the next morning so we didn't need to worry about getting everything out of there immediately after the reception. My only suggestion would be to order extra chairs if you're having an outdoor ceremony at this location. Unfortunately, they only provide 50 chairs and charge $5.50 for each additional chair. We only had 100, not realizing that people wouldn't fill each seat, and we ended up with many of our guests standing in the back during the ceremony. Overall, we were so happy that we chose this venue for our wedding, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a beautiful location with a friendly staff!
Lovely Location, Helpful Staff & Great Prices
Reviewed on 10/08/2014 Nicole WThe staff is wonderful and very accommodating for stressed out brides. The hardest choice we had to make with them was how we wanted our cake to look and taste.

If you need to save...
Reviewed on 9/29/2014 Christina KVilla Olivia was the cheapest place that we found, without loosing quality. However, you get what you pay for. Options are limited in some things, like a sweets table and bringing outside food. I am Greek and Italian, we have specific sweets at weddings, and all other venders we... Read More went to had no issue with us bringing anything (homemade or from a certified baker). Villa Olivia wont let you bring anything! But other than a few hiccups here and there everything was nice. The coordinators are sweet and try to work with you as best as possible. Just keep in mind no wedding goes as planed, so just relax and look at what is most important to you. If you want all the bells and whistles dont come here, but if you want a classy look, with really good food check it out!
Beautiful venue!

Read More Crystal room...beautiful views were a huge bonus!), open bar package, wine during dinner, three course meal, cake and ice cream, and linens. We also did a cocktail hour prior to the wedding. The views were spectacular, with the sun setting right behind the head table. Huge dance floor, which was occupied all night! Great bridal room (not huge, but we used it more for storage). The food is always great there. The service was spectacular! We didn't really have any complaints!
Food was awesome!!
