Maidenwood was the absolute BEST venue we could have ever dreamed of for our wedding. Where to even begin!? Steve, Jana, and the rest of the crew are just the nicest people you will ever meet, and they made the entire process so easy from the first info call to the last song. We felt assured we were in good hands the entire time, and the confidence continued throughout the day as they seamlessly followed the timeline and made sure everything was exactly what we had planned. In addition to the amazing people, the property and buildings are truly breathtaking. It’s the perfect blend of outdoorsy, elegant, adventurous, modern, and cozy. It’s clear how much thought and effort they have put in to already create an amazing backdrop that we didn’t feel stressed with decorating at all. Every space speaks for itself and emphasizes the beautiful nature that is all around. With that, we really appreciated the freedom to make the spaces our own and include unique elements that felt true to who we are as a couple. We got to be creative with vendors, photo spots, ceremony locations, getting ready, and other optional amenities that contributed to it feeling like our own property for the day! We also highly recommend Steve’s business Trustworthy Music for a DJ. Steve added so much energy and kept our guests on the dance floor the entire time. We also highly recommend Jana for a day of coordinator. She is so knowledgeable, a blast to work with, and went above and beyond checking on us and our guests throughout the wedding. We truly could go on and on about how grateful we are to have found Maidenwood for our day (and have been for the past 3 weeks!). Thank you for everything!! - Lauren & Kevin

We had the absolute pleasure of getting married at Forestville Vines Winery. We had a shorter timeline for our wedding (about 6-7 months!) and Mark and the team helped us achieve everything we wanted. We had never been to the winery before and toured in the winter while it was covered in snow, but the tour was so informative we had faith in the people and booked a couple days later! Budget-wise, Forestville was very affordable, and the big reason we chose it over other venues was the price and the ability to really DIY a lot of aspects (like table cloths, settings, etc). This is exactly the venue for you if you're someone who wants to have a heavier creative hand in the process. During our planning process, we would frequently reach out to Mark with questions (are real candles okay, can we move stuff, etc), and Mark was always quick to answer. We toured the venue again in May a couple months before our own wedding, and got to see the venue in all of its beauty. The team treated us wonderfully and seemed just as excited as us about our wedding. They were so accommodating throughout the entire process, and helped everything go so smoothly. Day-of went great, and we loved having pizza at the wedding. Super thankful to Mark and the team for giving us a absolutely beautiful place to get married!

We really enjoyed using the Holiday Inn for our reception! The space was great- the staff did really great going over and talking with us to get exactly what we wanted and our setup turned out beautifully. We did have some issues with communication at the end and numbers in pricing kept changing which was frustrating when we thought we were paying one price and then through email find out we were paying another price. As well as the food pricing for catering changed at least two if not three times from the time we put a deposit on the space to the final payment and only got updated numbers for catering a couple times and I had to ask for them it wasn’t just automatically sent to us as they changed, so going into one of our final meeting with expectation of a certain price with what we were planning and then they had changed again and we didn’t know until we got there and it was being discussed. It was frustrating because it is a spendy cost using their restaurant for catering and price just kept going up. Overall the experience was good, just frustrating at the end and that’s the most stressful time of planning is close tot he wedding so this was just an added stress that was unnecessary.

What a treasure! I recently delivered and set up florals I created for a wedding. I had never been to the nursery/venue before, and I must say my curiosity was peaked. Wow…this was more magical than I could have imagined! Not only is the property historical, the charms of the buildings and patios were like walking through an English garden. Upon going inside, I was again, enamored with the vibe of this venue! It had a modern rustic charm to it- bright white walls, warm wood features & an antique garden gazebo, among other unique features. It was enchanting to say the least! It is perfect for an intimate event. It has plenty of space for many guest tables, features tables (food, photo) and photo opportunities. The natural light through the windows that look out onto the patio gardens provide a perfect blend of letting the beauty of nature in. The staff was very friendly, helpful & hospitable. I met several of the staff that day and you could tell they loved what they do out at Marketplatz. I am very much looking forward to my next event there.
