Everything we could have asked for!

Tess, Jade and the team went above and beyond throughout the entire process - we could not have asked for a better experience! They were responsive, organized, and enthusiastic about taking care of us and our guests. They brought such great energy the day-of and we got tons of great feedback about the food, and Jarron's incredible signature cocktails. 10000/10 would recommend!

The Most Incredible Team and Wedding Venue

The team at Orchard, especially Jade and Tess, are just incredible. They go above and beyond to make sure you and your loved ones have the best night of your lives. We cannot compliment them enough for their professionalism, willing to work with requests (some of which we'll admit were rather ridiculous), keeping the bride and groom worry-free (not a single problem reached our ears that night, huge kudos for that), and most of all, their kindness throughout the whole process. They really care about you and your wedding, and you could clearly see how determined they were to make the experience as smooth as can be, all while having fun.

And we have to mention the food. Chef Jenny Kang is a genius. Everyone wouldn't stop raving about how good the food was, even weeks after the wedding. And the cocktails were heavenly. We should also mention that the team at Orchard made sure we (the bride & groom) got fed throughout the beautiful chaos of greeting family and friends, and they packed the meals we couldn't get to so we could enjoy them at home (we cried tears of joy).

Do keep in mind though, that Orchard is for smaller weddings- approx. 90 people cocktail reception, 60 seated dinner, if I recall correctly.

Every single penny spent at Orchard was worth it, and we strongly believe that there's no better team and venue at a similar price point.

We catch ourselves dreaming about our Orchard wedding from time to time, and wishing we were still back there :)
