“The Hummingbird Chateau was the perfect choice for our wedding venue! From the beginning, Leah’s communication was quick and responsive, which was greatly appreciated during the busy wedding planning process. The space itself was absolutely stunning, with so many decor options to choose from, multiple areas we could choose from for our ceremony and actual bathrooms for our guests! From the moment we booked I was able to call or text her with any questions I had and was also able to stop by multiple times to choose which decor pieces I wanted to use and to go over decor layouts. On the day of the wedding, Leah and the rest of the staff were there all day to help with anything we needed! They helped setup all the decor and even helped cleaned up afterwards. She also coordinated with our other vendors day of and made sure everything was running smooth! She made our day completely stress free. Seriously could not have asked for a better venue to host our special day! Leah and the staff were amazing and totally out did themselves!!”

“Our wedding at TCRH was everything we dreamed of and more. From the moment we toured the manor and met the wonderful owners, Jerry and Michelle, we knew it was the perfect place. The manor house is warm and charming, offering a beautiful space for our bridal party to gather in the morning. The grounds are stunning—our ceremony by the pond was serene and picture-perfect, and cocktail hour on the pavilion and around the yard let our 140 guests spread out and enjoy the sunset. Using the venue for our rehearsal dinner the night before was such a treat, letting us bring our decor ahead of time and enjoy the space stress-free. Every detail of the weekend felt magical.
