Wanderlust Okto

We recently had our wedding at Wanderlust Okto, and we couldn’t be happier with our experience! From the moment we started planning until the final moments of our big day, the staff went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. They cared about making our day special, and their attention to detail was impeccable. ERIC is phenomenal, honestly, a legend. Even when we had last-minute changes, the team handled everything with ease and grace, making us feel completely at ease. Their professionalism and genuine care made the entire process much smoother than we imagined. They took the time to get to know us, understood our vision, and worked tirelessly to bring it to life. If you’re looking for a venue with a fantastic staff who will go out of their way to make sure your wedding day is flawless, we highly recommend wanderlust okto. They exceeded all of our expectations, and we are forever grateful for their dedication to making our wedding day unforgettable!

We feel so lucky to have found Wanderlust Okto! Not only was the location perfect (close enough for our local guests, but also close to the airport for everyone coming from out-of-state), but the venue itself is beautiful. It’s like a little, magical modern farmhouse tucked away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The design and aesthetic was the best fit for the theme of our wedding, but, at the same time, Wanderlust also just had so many practical amenities we couldn’t find anywhere else and couldn’t pass up. We chose the package that included the estate house for two nights, which was perfect for us and our bridal party to have a full day before the wedding to set up decor. It was also nice after the reception to have a place on site to be able to quickly store all the decorations and gifts. Plus, it included an outside space for our rehearsal dinner the night before. The parking lot was very spacious and able to accommodate all the cars for our 100+ guest count. The package also included catering and servers, which was so nice to not have to worry about finding a separate third-party. (Plus, hats off to the chef! The food was amazing!) We also really liked how bartenders were included, but we could buy our own alcohol. So many places charge per person, per the hour and it gets so expensive. This way, we could buy the drinks we knew we wanted and offer an open bar the whole time to our guests. What we also loved about Wanderlust was having the inside/outside spaces. If it rained or if it was too hot, we could just move everyone inside. Thankfully, it ended up being a nice January afternoon, so we were able to keep our cocktail hour outside and our reception inside. Lastly, Erik and his staff were amazing. Very professional and everything was on point! Erik was always quick to answer any questions I had. We will always remember the incredible food tasting he set up for us at the estate house, with the perfect ambience and so many delicious options. We knew we were in good hands with Erik and his team. Highly recommend! Thank you Erik and Wanderlust Team! -Sara & Lucky Lucresio

This venue was absolutely perfect for the vision we had for our wedding. Erik was very easy to work with during the whole process. He was accommodating, flexible, and you can tell he genuinely cared about the experience of the bride and groom. Erik and his staff were extremely professional and helpful, even when there was a little bit of rain, they scrambled to get everything back to perfect. The venue has so many amazing amenities and surprises that really add to the experience as well. I have never been to a wedding here before and every single guest commented on how awesome the venue came out. We also opted to use the in house catering and are SO happy we did. The food was AMAZING. I had SO many compliments after about the food. I've been to a lot of weddings and I will say one thing people always remember is the food, luckily ours has been known for how good it is! Overall the entire experience was better than I could have ever asked for and I am so thankful to Erik and his team for focusing so much on customer experience. - Bree and Ryan (RJ)

BOOK your wedding at Wanderlust Okto, you won’t regret it! Our wedding reception was magical thanks to Erik and his entire team. They were very professional, kind, attentive and patient. Not only did they went above and beyond to make sure our day was special, but they made all of our family and friends feel very welcome. The place is breathtaking, and the sunsets even more! From the moment we met Erik, he made sure to put us first. We discussed our vision and expectations and immediately felt heard and understood. He communicated with us constantly which gave us peace of mind; at this moment we knew our day was going to be perfect. Erik even went out of his way, late at night and assisted us with all the decoration, and made sure my husband and I didn’t have to worry about the small details. The place is so versatile and spacious, it is an open canvas where you can let your creativity run wild. Our guest are still talking about the beautiful reception at Wanderlust Okto! Thank you so much to Erik and his entire team , we are forever grateful for your hospitality and for the wedding of our dreams! Mr and Mrs. Santiago. ♥️

After a quick google search earlier this year, we found Wanderlust Okto. Well, we found Erik, the owner, who really makes this place what it is. After going out to see the property we knew this was the place we wanted to get married. From that moment on, Erik went into wedding-planner/friend mode and always made sure we had everything we needed throughout the entire process (including day of!) I can’t recommend this property enough. The house feels like home, and the barn(s) and other amazing things he has on the property make it feel like you’re living in a dream. Even though this space was perfect for our “unconventional” dark, spooky, Halloween themed wedding, it’s perfect for something traditional, or something a little southern... it’s really perfect for anything! If you’re on the fence about deciding on getting married here, don’t be... it will be wonderful just like ours was 🖤💕

Where to even begin with this venue! The owners are absolutely incredible. They are kind, passionate about serving you, and will bend over backwards to ensure you are happy. We moved our wedding up 2.5 months and Erik was on it! He created the most beautiful wedding venue for us. He was in the middle of renovations and worked night and day to ensure everything was set and ready to go! I’ve never met someone as kind, as driven, and dedicated to make sure that my husband and I had our perfect day. And was it PERFECT! Wow. Wow. I have no words for how amazing our day was. Everything was beautiful, perfect, magical, more than we could have ever dreamed! Thank you Erik! Thank you Wanderlust Okto for EVERYTHING!!

It is truly a magical experience. The property is beautiful and beautifully kept. The owner takes full pride and every effort to make your day memorable, beautiful and relaxing. A wedding can be stressful, but being here, it was organized and fun. I enjoyed my day to the fullest and had no regrets about how the day went. It could not have gone any better, it actually went better than I had planned or imaged. It was the little details that made it all come together. They went above and beyond to make the day special. The location is perfect for anybody from out of town and easy to locate. There are near by grocers as well, for any last minute needs. The sunset in this location, is to die for!! Absolutely breathtaking! There are so many photo op spots, it’s hard to not want to take so many. It was an absolute joy to have gotten married here and am so happy that I made the choice to pick this venue. As soon as I did a walk through, I just knew this was my place to have the most precious day a woman dreams of. It really was a dream, I couldn’t have asked for a better day. I truly recommend this venue!

This venue was absolutely perfect for the wedding we had visioned for us, the property is beautiful! The host and his wife were there every step of the way to help ensure everything went as we expected and it put us at ease during the set up. I would recommend this venue and would 100% stay at this location again!
