Wedding
“From our first conversation with the team at The Venue at Winding Hills, we knew we were in great hands. They communicated with us in a straightforward way that made the planning process feel easy, and they seemed to anticipate our needs before we even asked the questions ourselves. What really stood out was how much value they brought to our wedding day—from the thoughtful details to the seamless execution, everything felt abundant and well-organized. The staff went above and beyond to make sure our guests felt taken care of, and the venue itself provided the perfect backdrop for our celebration. We left our wedding day feeling grateful for their professionalism and genuine care. We’d recommend The Venue at Winding Hills to any couple looking for a venue that will truly make their day special. Toni is the ABSOLUTE best!! 1000/10 stars for her”

“Absolutely perfect venue and incredible team. We could not have imagined a better venue than Winding Hills, and our experience was made truly exceptional thanks to Heather, the day-of coordinator and venue manager. Heather went so far above and beyond in every possible way! She was calm, attentive, proactive, and genuinely cared about every detail of our day. When I accidentally stained my dress, Heather literally helped rub chalk into it to fix the stain. That moment alone says everything about the level of care and dedication she brings. She is an absolute gem and a huge reason our day went so smoothly. The food was outstanding. Our guests are still talking about it. Everything was delicious and beautifully executed. One of the things guests loved most about Winding Hills was how well the space worked for everyone. There were fireside chats happening for quieter conversations, kids hanging out happily on the patio, older guests enjoying the indoor spaces, and the partiers out on the dance floor in the tent. The layout made it easy for everyone to enjoy the celebration in their own way, and guests raved about the different spaces all night and afterward. Winding Hills is a beautiful, well-run, and incredibly thoughtful venue, but what truly sets it apart is the people, especially Heather. We felt completely taken care of from start to finish, and our guests were blown away. We cannot recommend Winding Hills highly enough.”

“Winding Hills is by far the best venue to get married. When we were first looking for a location, the beauty of this place stood out to us immediately. Everywhere you look has beautiful flowers and greenery in addition to the welcoming patio area. The food for both the cocktail hour and reception were a big hit among the guests. To top it all off, the service was unmatched. Heather, Melyssa, and team handle of every small detail with great care and ensure your day is stress-free. The staff during the wedding were super friendly and welcoming to our guests. We cannot thank Winding Hills enough for providing us and our guests with such a great experience. We would recommend this place to anyone looking to get married or any other event!!”

“Our wedding at the Venue at Winding Hills Golf Club was nothing short of perfect. From the moment we first visited, we could feel the warmth, care & attention to detail that sets this venue apart. The grounds are absolutely beautiful and immaculately kept- the flowers and greens, the sunset views, and the cozy yet elegant atmosphere created the most magical setting for our day. But what truly made our experience unforgettable was Heather. She went above and beyond in every possible way. Anticipating and meeting our needs before we even realized them, kept everything running smoothly, and made us feel genuinely cared for throughout the entire planning process and on the wedding day itself. She didn’t miss a beat! Her kindness, professionalism, and calming presence made all the difference. The absolute BEST! Our guests couldn’t stop complimenting the food, the service, and the overall flow of the evening. It was everything we dreamed of and more. If you’re looking for a venue that combines beauty, warmth, and exceptional service, Winding Hill Golf Club is it. We’ll forever be grateful to Heather and the entire team for making our wedding day truly unforgettable. We wish we could do it all over again- we would choose Winding Hills over and over!!!”

“Our Son and new Daughter in Law hosted the most beautiful wedding on June 25th! I really can’t even put into words how very beautiful this location is for a summer wedding!

“When my now husband and I were searching for our venue, this was the only one we toured and we booked our date the same day. Not only is the property beautiful, you are also getting the most out of your money. Throughout the planning process, Heather kept in touch, answered all of our questions, and set up a meeting to discuss final details as we neared our wedding day. Despite being in the middle of a heat wave, the day was everything we could’ve asked for. Heather and the venue were so accommodating with last minute changes and making sure our guests were staying safe and hydrated in the heat. My husband and I received so many compliments throughout the night regarding the beautiful grounds and how delicious the drinks, food, and cake was. We can’t recommend this venue enough!”

“The Venue at Winding Hills was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding day. Their communication style was fast, clear and professional from the very beginning. The quality of their work and the value they provided was truly beautiful, as they went above and beyond to ensure our wedding reception was stress free and perfect. Heather, the venue coordinator, took matters into her own hands to help us find a solution for our seating chart when our original plan fell through. The staff at The Venue at Winding Hills took care of us the whole time and made our special day completely worry free despite some family issues we were dealing with. We couldn’t have asked for a better venue and team to bring our vision to life. I would choose them a million times over if I could!!”

“The venue was my dream. From the outdoor ceremony space, the picture perfect cocktail area, and the opened tent for the reception. It was everything I could’ve wanted and more. Everyone working was so kind and helpful. Heather our day of coordinator had an answer to every question I didn’t even know I had. And the food, amazing. It was so good and I loved the amount of choices we had for the cocktail hour and for dinner. The reception area is so great and keeping the floor as is for the dancing was the best move, because we had endless room for dancing. The night flew by because I simply was having the best time, and so much is due to the venue and the staff making it the perfect night. THANK YOU! Pro tip: BOOK THE FERNS HOUSE. Being able to get ready on the property was a huge plus. And the house is so gorgeous, the bridal suite was a dream and the lighting was more than stunning. My girls and I had a blast being in the same house and getting ready in a shared space, and being on the property gave us lots of wiggle room. And then after the reception we were close and got to hang out even longer!”

“BOOK THIS VENUE!!! From the second we toured this place, we knew it was the one. All of the staff is so warm and welcoming and they all wanted us to have the perfect day. The catering, bar, event coordinators, literally everyone went above and beyond for us. And it was one of the most reasonably priced venues for being all inclusive! Heather was with us the day of and she made every little detail come to life and kept me hydrated and calm when I was waiting for my big queue to head towards the aisle. She was amazing! Everyone loved the food and cocktail hour stations, and I had raving reviews from family and friends about the cake we got through the venue. I could not have asked for a smoother, more beautiful, absolutely perfect day.”

Micro Wedding Bride
“Our experience at The Venue at Winding Hills was absolutely amazing. Although we had a micro wedding, we were treated with the same care and attention as if we had 200 guests. Throughout the planning process, the staff was always accommodating, flexible, and supportive. They were incredibly proactive, even anticipating potential weather issues and having solutions ready. The grounds were breathtaking and the food was spectacular. We also rented The Ferns, and it was a beautiful, relaxing space to get ready and unwind with our adult children. A special thank you goes to our wedding coordinator, Heather, who truly went above and beyond. Her attention to detail and dedication allowed us to relax and fully enjoy our wedding day. We highly recommend The Venue at Winding Hills to any couple looking for a beautiful venue, outstanding service, and a team that genuinely cares.”

Dinner Party Host
“From start to finish, everything was seamless. The venue itself is breathtaking, the grounds immaculately manicured. Every single appetizer was beautifully presented, tasty and in abundance! A 3 course dinner followed, which was excellent, served by staff that were cheerful, polite and extremely attentive. There is plenty to choose from. Something for every palate. I was more than happy with this venue. Highly recommend. Heather worked her magic and dealt with every task so competently and easily. Toni ran that dinner party with a smile and with great, seemingly much experience, efficiency and elegance! Thank you all for my making my night very special!

“My husband and I got married here on May 27, 2023. I cannot recommend it enough. Wedding planning is an extremely hard process but Winding Hills made it so easy and made my day stress free. The food was SO good and we are still getting compliments weeks later. The tent was gorgeous, the weather was perfect. We had around 170 guests and there was plenty of room.

“I don’t think I could put into words just how flawless our wedding day was at Winding Hills. We got married at the end of summer and everyone could not stop talking about the venue grounds, food, wait staff, drinks, etc. etc. etc.!! The staff is a well oiled machine, they made me, my bridal party and parents feel so special from start to finish. The highlight of the night was the after party. It gave all of our guests extra time to mingle with each other, sit by the firepit, enjoy MORE amazing food and continue the fun. And since it was right at the venue, almost everyone stayed for the whole two hours!”

“The Venue at Winding Hills was actually the first venue we visited, and after meeting with Melyssa, we instantly knew this was the place for us. She was so knowledgeable and made us feel completely secure in their hands. What stood out most was the care and attention to detail—they do weddings all the time, yet they made ours feel like it was the only one that mattered. When we toured, the Ferns lodge had not yet been built but we pre-reserved it any way and it really blew us away. It’s a gorgeous house with thoughtful touches throughout, and being right on site made everything so much easier and more enjoyable. On the day itself, Heather was our point of contact, and she was absolutely fabulous. Every detail was so well thought out and executed perfectly. From the servers to the bartenders, everyone went above and beyond to make the day feel so special. I honestly expected to feel at least a little stressed, but thanks to this dream team, I didn’t feel stressed at all. They truly do a fantastic job, and I cannot recommend them enough. If you’re considering this as a venue, don’t hesitate—it was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding!”
