Jennifer A. Married on 05/10/2019The most perfect place for a wedding!
My husband and I could not be happier with our entire experience at Carl's Catering, The Glen. From the first time we met the staff, to the last moment of our wedding, we were amazed by the level of care provided.
First and foremost, it was a genuine pleasure to work with Bino, Melissa, Angie & Sylvia. They are courteous, professional and incredibly kind. I genuinely felt like they cared about us and making our day as perfect as possible, which it was!
As for the venue itself, what can I say other than it is gorgeous! The willow tree and the gazebo are straight out of a magazine and make for a perfect backdrop. The grounds are well manicured and the building is well maintained. I love that we were able to keep an intimate feel for our wedding in this space, which is difficult to do with a guest list of 135.
Leading up to the wedding, I didn't have to worry about a thing and I took pride in saying that I was the calmest bride in history. While I want to take all the credit for this, I have to give credit where it is due and that is to Bino, Angie and Melissa for taking care of all of the details. The inclusive package that they provide was a lifesaver, especially because I was completing a master's degree during planning and I didn't have a lot of spare time. The vendor's, much like the staff at Carl's were great. It was helpful to have a one stop shop wedding!
Now let's talk about the food! It is nothing short of amazing!! The butternut squash soup will live on in my dreams for the rest of my life!! So tasty! We received so many compliments on all the food from our guests, which I had no doubt we would receive. Moreover, as a bride with celiacs and a guest list full of dietary restrictions/requirements, I was very impressed with the attention to detail provided by the staff. There were great options provided to all and everyone left happy, with full bellies.
I would recommend this venue to everyone!! Whether it's for weddings, bridal showers, baby showers or whatever you need, Bino and his staff will take the best care of you, hands down!-

Sarah Married on 05/12/2020Covid Scam
This venue is handling covid extremely poorly. Any brides planning a wedding in the next 3 years or until covid is done I would highly recommends staying away! We have been booked with them for well over a year and have paid a huge chunk towards our wedding which due to covid cannot be held. Although it’s illegal to hold the event as per our contract they are refusing to return our deposit.
Not only are they refusing to return the deposit, they booked another wedding on our day! Not sure how they are expecting to hold our 150 person wedding with another wedding at the same time....
The whole process was also difficult; they don’t answer emails or refuse to give you information until closer to your date making it impossible to plan. They change the prices they tell you constantly and it started to feel like a scam. Nothing was clear and everything caused more stress
They don’t allow you to bring parents to the tastings even after we offered to cover their plate, and over all made us feel like we were missing out on a lot of the fun in planning .
As for their food; it was nothing special. The vegetables are those you get from a frozen bag and over all you’ll be spending 160 on a baked chicken breast.
I really would advise staying away from Carl’s catering the glen, unless you feel like losing your money and being extremely heart broken -

Teresa J. Married on 26/09/2020So extremely thankful!
I can't imagine what it would have been like to plan a wedding (let alone a COVID one) with ANY other place other than Carl's. Right from the get-go, in the spring of 2020 when things all went south, the lovely people from Carl's were there to help us every step of the way.
We ended up having a split event date, with our ceremony only falling on our original date of September 26th 2020, and our reception a whole year later on our first anniversary. Through the whole process, they were honest, understanding, and I never doubted for a second that they had our best interests at heart.
All that being said, the actual ceremony was stunning!! We were blown away by the beauty of the grounds and the intimate nature of the ceremony space. Our guests are still raving about how beautiful it was!
On our reception day last month, it was definitely strange having just the reception on its own, but the entire staff there truly made it feel special. Once things got going, it felt like a true continuation of our ceremony a year prior. The space was absolutely beautiful, we didn't add any extra decor really and the space didn't need it. The food was amazing, the people were so kind, and our DJ (DJ Ken!) who we worked with through Carl's, did an AMAZING job.
After a long stressful few years of pandemic wedding planning, we were so grateful to have to support of the venue staff and not one, but TWO beautiful events a year apart. I absolutely couldn't imagine going through all of the stress and uncertainty with anyone else. We were made to feel like family :)
Thank you SO much! -

Shelley H. Married on 19/09/2020Great experience
We had our wedding on September 19.2020.
I only had 6 weeks to plan our wedding and I would say it was the most stressful time I have ever experienced.
planning in a short time to meet all our requirement wasn't easy during this pandemic.
At first I wasn't sure if i can trust small family owned venue. since I heard so many couple went through hell with deposits and other issues and venues even going out of business.
However Bino ( the owner) and the staff made it all possible and in a perfect way they possibly can.
we all worked together and they were very accommodating and helpful.
every member of staff including Melissa, Sylvia, Jessie wedding planner, kitchen staff and Bartender (Muscle Man) were awesome and they made sure everything goes well during our wedding day.
Bino was there on Our wedding day to make sure everything goes smoothly.
Our wedding day was super sunny but little cold and Bino made sure we had enough heat inside our tent to keep all our guests comfortable.
I definitely recommend Carl's catering and will be back!

Portia T. Married on 22/08/2020My wedding was a A Fairy Tail @ this venue
My wedding took place on August 22nd 2020 at Carl's Catering The Glen.The first time I saw this venue I knew it was love at first sight.The property is properly maintained, it was always clean when I visited and it looks exactly as they advertised.The staff was very helpful, they ensured that my weeding went smooth and it was organized. The food was to die for, most of the guest told me they enjoyed it. One thing I liked about this venue was the vendor list that is recommend on the website for example, I used Bill Shelson as my officiant and he did a fantastic job.In all, it was an memorable experience and I have no regrets .Thank you Bino,Karen,Amanda and Melissa.-

Allison L. Married on 09/05/2020A beautiful venue that cares
The second I met Bino and his amazing staff I knew this was the perfect place to have our special day. Everyone at Carl's Catering has gone over and above for myself and family, I really can't thank them enough. The second you meet them you are treated like family. They have been so supportive durning such a difficult time, and really take the stress out of wedding planning for you. They are organized, accommodating, and provide amazing service. The grounds are beautiful for a ceremony and pictures, the hall inside is beautiful and decorated to perfection. The food is delicious, and they have such a variety to choose from. They also accommodate food allergies or special dietary restrictions.We had a small outside ceremony with just family a few weeks ago, and it was amazing. I can't wait to celebrate at Carls Catering again next year with all our friends and family. Thanks again to Bino, Melissa, Karen, and the amazing staff at Carls Catering. -

Cindy B. Married on 28/09/2019Wedding for Cindy and Sonny
From day one The Glen was very helpful and accommodating. Melissa and Angie helped us through the planning of all components that were part of the package provided by The Glen.
The Save the Date magnets were great.
The Invitations were beautiful.
The DJ was great. Our guests were impressed with his playlist and readiness for requests.
The Wedding Cake was beautiful and tasted wonderful.
Everyone told us the food was wonderful and I can tell you that my husband and I enjoyed it thoroughly. There wasn't anything that we didn't enjoy.
The staff was very helpful and considerate including helping us fix our mistake on the seating plan (we missed 4 people off our last table setting list). They brought us drinks and food out to the gazebo while we were having the pictures done. So nice. (Sylvia was wonderful)
The Chef had asked us if there were any special requests for any guests (aside from the dietary restrictions) specifically if we had any guests with special needs. It was great that they helped with my father's meal so that he didn't have any issues eating the meal.
We asked at the beginning if we would be allowed to have a sweet table later in the evening with items that I baked which they kindly allowed. The table would also include a cheese tray and fruit tray as per our request to replace the original items on the late night option that was included in our package.
As for the package, it was GREAT! It made it much easier for us to plan the wedding and reception. It was a 'One Stop Shop' package. The team even kept us on our toes for when things should be organized/ordered!
All in all, The Glen is a wonderful place to hold your special day. The experience was great from beginning to end. Melissa and Angie were great and the staff on the day of the wedding were fabulous. We would recommend, and have recommended, The Glen for Special Events.
Sonny and I would like to thank everyone so much for all the help we got planning our wedding. It was very much appreciated and very professional.Carl's Catering The Glen's reply:
Cindy & Sonny,
You have us blushing! Thank you so much for sharing your experience and for the kind words! We were honored that you chose us to help host your special day!
We wish you and your beautiful family lots of laughter, love and shortbread cookies.... going into this next chapter of your life.
Sincerely,
Bino & Angie
