Best Day EVER!
The Space:
The grounds and event space at Zorvino are simply stunning. If you’re looking for a cozy/rustic but elegant vibe, this is the place. Everything is kept in pristine condition, and exciting new details were added every... time we went in for a meeting or a wine tasting. They were also very flexible and helpful with décor and set up. They allowed us to borrow some of their décor that they had on site, such as lanterns, signage, candles, card box etc. This was a HUGE cost savings for us and saved us from having to bring all of this into the space ourselves.
Their wedding packages are super easy to navigate, and they were very accommodating with adjustments to help us hit our budget and fulfill special requests.
It was so important for my husband and I to feel like we had an intimate/cozy ceremony, even though we had over 170 guests. I can’t tell you how many compliments we received on how special our ceremony was. We were married in front of the fireplace surrounded by family on the first floor, and all of our friends looking over the lofted space on the second floor. It felt truly magical. I also want to mention that once the ceremony was over, the staff was able to quickly move the chairs off the floor and set up cocktail hour seamlessly. Once cocktail hour was over, there was plenty of room for dancing even with our large guest count!
The Food:
We selected the Harvest Chicken and Primed Rib from our dinner selections, and we don’t think there was a single guest that was unsatisfied with their meal - Everything was cooked perfectly and tasted amazing. Our guests were also raving over cocktail hour and the passed appetizers. Everything was absolutely delicious.
The Staff:
This was the big one for us. The staff at Zorvino are truly some of the kindest people we have ever met. Planning a wedding can be extremely overwhelming and stressful, but every time we communicated or met with the staff our minds were always put at ease. Even when we would stop in for wine tastings occasionally, every staff member in the tasting room had a way of making us feel like family. Our event manager would also meet with us on a whim if she knew we were there, even if it was just to say hi!
Denise managed our event, and we feel SO SO SO lucky that she did. From the moment we booked until the days following our wedding, she made us feel like we were her only event that she managed. She was always available via email/text/call. Anytime we had adjustments to our meals/guest list etc., she would update our file immediately so we could see the affect to our final budget. She had so many suggestions and tips for us to help planning and the day of run smoothly. She met with both myself and my Mom several times throughout our year of planning. The day of, she was there bright and early for our vendors to arrive and stayed super late since we added on more time for our event. I could go on and on about all of the amazing things that she did for us.
My husband and I live in NY, and she made our planning so easy; even being far away. If there was one thing that we had to pick from this venue that had to be our favorite, it would be Denise. It was her hard work, kindness and patience that made our day and the venue as special as it was. She is simply the sweetest.
If you're having any hesitations about booking this venue for your wedding - don't! This venue is so perfect in so many ways. We couldn't be any happier with our experience!
