Fisher wedding 2023-06-24

AMAZING experience!!! Elmhurst was a beautiful venue, awesome food and excellent service. Kayleigh was the best and incredible helpful with every step of the event. She made the day run seamlessly and was an absolute pleasure to work with. I appreciated her honesty and opinions when I needed them. She coordinated everything! Elmhurst staff was great and the grounds were beautiful.
Would recommend to ANYONE!

Wonderful wedding experience at Elmhurst! Thank you Kaleigh & team!

My husband and I got married at the end of May, 2023. The entire process from the beginning to end was a wonderful experience with Kaleigh at Elmhurst, we would recommend this venue to anyone!

Venue - Ceremony:
Elmhurst is such a beautiful course with perfect spots for photos. The course was super green and the ceremony pergola is very nice. We did not have to place any décor out at the ceremony site as they had flower pots and the site itself is pretty enough. They shut down the two closest holes during the ceremony which was appreciated. They set the chairs up for us which was awesome! They also made sure a table was there for signing.

Venue - Reception:
Our reception was in the banquet room on the second floor. It is such a beautiful room with wood beams and windows all along one wall. The layout in the room is perfect, it felt intimate and looked just stunning. The Elmhurst staff set the tables for us and did a great job. The napkins and tablecloths were included in the price! We rented the gathered chair covers and they looked great. We also rented the AV projector system which worked perfect and we were able to have a photo slideshow running all night long. We were allowed in the day before the wedding to do décor set up which was awesome and took so much stress off. During the reception our guests were able to go out onto the balcony to chat or just get some fresh air which was such a nice bonus.

Food:
We got hors d'oeuvres, the imperial buffet, and a candy bar late night snack. They have tons of options, it was hard to pick they all sounds so good! Our tasting was very intimate, it was just us and was a very pleasant experience. Kaleigh definitely made it fun for us. On the wedding day all of the food was phenomenal! We got so so so many compliments on all of the food. It was so delicious and hot. We chose the seasonal veggies and they brought everything in that we mentioned we like (asparagus, zucchini, red peppers) which was so sweet. They put aside some of the appetizers for my husband I when we were out taking photos which was super nice! They also sent us home with all the leftover candy from the candy bar.

Photo spots:
Someone from the golf course accompanied us, our wedding party and the photographer to different photo spots on the course. He was awesome and super patient as we took plenty of photos! The winding driveway was also perfect for photos as we had a classic car to use.

Liquor:
We chose to do the host bar where we pay for all the guests drinks. Some golf courses charge a set amount per head but not Elmhurst, we paid per drink. This is so great because many of our family members don't drink so just paying for what we actually used was much better. We decided to bring our own wine and pay the corkage fee, they only charged corkage for the bottles that were opened! We ended up taking some home and were not charged for those. We love to do shots and Elmhurst brought in Fireball for us which was so special! Shoutout to our bartender we had for the evening, she was awesome! It is a tempting thing when the bar is next to the dance floor ... lol.

Staff:
All of the staff were amazing, so friendly and very efficient. It was all smooth sailing! We want to give a special shoutout to Kaleigh, who helped us all along the way. From touring the venue, to the tasting, to answering all of my emails with random questions, to the actual wedding day she was absolutely phenomenal. She was patient during our decision making, always answered quickly and was very professional, extremely accommodating, and friendly. She was present during the wedding and our day ran so smoothly thanks to her. We feel so grateful, thank you again Kaleigh! You made our day a dream come true.

Price:
We found the pricing to be extremely reasonable and perfect for our small wedding. There were no hidden fees or things we were not expecting to pay for! We feel like we got a good deal and are very satisfied.

Conclusion:
Our experience with Elmhurst was everything we could have ever wanted and more. All of the little details like the fireball, the intimate tasting, the veggies, Kaleigh printing our vows (oops!), the setting up early, etc, makes it really feel like you're cared about and that they want you to have an amazing experience. Truly from the bottom of our hearts we cannot say thank you enough. If you are considering Elmhurst just do it, you will not be disappointed!

Our wedding was the best day ever!

Kaleigh is incredible to work with. She went above and beyond to make our day perfect from start to finish. I have never worked with someone who cared so much about us and our day. She made it go so smoothly and made our time so enjoyable there! Thank you kaleigh!!
The food is amazing! Our guests still rave about how great it was.
The grounds to the reception room to the outdoor patio, there is no where like this place. It screams elegance with a rustic charm. Gorgeous spots for photos and even the members are kind and wave and say hello as they pass.
Thank you elmhurst for making everything run so smoothly.
Shout out to Ali the best bartender ever!
Highly recommend having your wedding here 10/10

Amazing venue

We booked with Elmhurst in 2019 and they were a dream to work with from start to finish. Food is amazing, beautiful ceremony and reception space. Zero head aches, they were an absolute dream to work with.

Hidden gem

I CANNOT say enough amazing things about Elmhurst as a wedding venue. We had booked them 2 years prior to our wedding date after seeing 2 other wedding venues and knew as soon as we stepped into the reception area that this is our wedding venue. Kaleigh (the venue manager) is an absolute dream to work with through the planning process, on the wedding day, and on the clean-up day. The staff were amazing on the wedding day and we have absolutely no complaints. The food was just as amazing on our wedding day as it was during our tasting and our guests LOVED everything, especially the late night poutine bar. Seriously consider Elmhurst if you are looking for a wedding venue. They also did a bunch of renovations just before our wedding day and the venue looks even more amazing than when we booked it originally.

Fantastic service and beautiful setting

We were blown away with the service at Elmhurst. While we originally planned on the banquet hall for our reception, we ended up sticking with a tent rented elsewhere due to pandemic precautions. Kaleigh (event coordinator) was communicative throughout the process of viewing and booking the site, planning our event, and was also present for set-up and on event day to make sure things went smoothly. Our guests were raving about the food (and continue to mention it!), and we were happy to be able to offer options to our friends and family with unique dietary needs because of the flexibility of the kitchen. Dinner service was well-executed and polite, and the bartender impressed guests with their superb memory and friendly manner. We also appreciated the tour guide who took us around the grounds for photos, and the complimentary golf carts were tons of fun for our wedding party.
It's so worth the short drive outside the city to see the beautiful grounds and banquet hall.

Covid Wedding Summer 2021

Elmhurst was the perfect venue for us through our postponement last year to our most perfect wedding this year. The staff was so friendly and helpful and Kaleigh the food and beverage manager (this title definitely didn’t sum up even half our her job) was literally at my beck and call with any questions or worries I had. After postponing our wedding a year ago we had no idea what to do this year with the ever changing restrictions. Kaleigh was with us and helped us every step of the way.
We ended up having a beautiful tent wedding on the lawn of Elmhurst golf course catered and set up by Elmhurst staff. It was the perfect day and I would recommend Elmhurst to anyone who is getting married. Not only for the delicious food but for the amazing customer service as well.

Exceptional Experience

Kaleigh was a superstar.

When we planned our pre-covid wedding she was very helpful and accomodating. If we had questions, even during the winter off-season, she would answer with haste.

When covid hit and we had to start over, she accomodated an outdoor ceremony with only half our guest list and she made the change painless.

The hall is very nice with exposed timber frame and large picture windows along one side with a balcony overlooking the putting green. The food is excellent. The grounds have many great photo locations. Kaliegh provided our photographers and wedding party with golf carts for the day and an escort while taking photos around the property.

It was a great day that went very smoothly and we give Kaliegh alot of the credit.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
