    Truly One of a kind!

    This Chateau is truly something special. From the beautiful grounds and timeless architecture to the incredibly welcoming team, it is an absolute dream! As a wedding photographer, I have had numerous couples book their engagement session here to utilize the beautiful space! Cheryl has been incredible and so fundamental in my couple's experience! She has made the whole process of booking the space for an event or session effortless and elevated!

    Venue Experience

    We had our wedding at Chateau Douillett and couldn't have been happier with our choice. From our first conversation through the big day, the team was responsive and stayed on top of every detail without us having to chase them down. Their aesthetic is tasteful and stands out from typical venues, and we loved how they brought our vision to life without breaking the bank. On the day of, the staff handled serving and cleanup with such efficiency that we got to focus on celebrating with our loved ones instead of worrying about logistics. The entire experience felt special because they genuinely cared about making our wedding feel personal. We'd recommend Chateau Douillett to anyone looking for a venue that delivers on quality, value, and service.

    The mansion was absolutely amazing and truly extraordinary. From the moment we arrived, everything felt elegant, luxurious, and beautifully designed. The space was breathtaking, with stunning details throughout and an atmosphere that made the entire experience feel special. It’s the kind of place that leaves a lasting impression—beautiful, impressive, and completely unforgettable. A truly remarkable mansion! To hold my wedding.

    Bride

    Spent months looking for venues. We are from the Springfield area and this “ hidden gem” is truly just that. I did the Bridgestone package, 5 vintage rooms, huge game room for the guys down stairs. Stunning landscape and even more wonderful hostess! We had a beautiful tented wedding under a 40x80 pole tent from Rent-A-Tent with 180 guests and hired all local vendors to create our special day! A truly stunning property and a great hospitality! Thank you Cheryl!!
