The Perfect Venue

We just had our wedding at Cedar Valley Forest in October and it was spectacular. I cannot stop beaming, reminiscing about how perfect the day was. The venue, the nature, the indoor space, the cottage for getting ready, our coordinator Andrea, just all of it was top notch.
When we started our search for the perfect venue, we had a couple things we knew we wanted: an outdoor ceremony (weather permitting) but that could be moved inside if needed, to be surrounded in nature and trees, early access to the venue for getting ready- as well as a dedicated space for getting ready, and be able to bring our own alcohol for the reception. Cedar Valley Forest hit all of those points and many many more.
When we arrived for our tour it was clear that CVF was just as interested in getting to know us, our love story, and how we wanted our day to look, as we were getting to see the venue and meet them. We felt welcomed and celebrated and quickly knew this was the place we wanted to start our forever.
The planning and prep work for the big day was so easy. Andrea sent reminders and info to fill out, and was always available for questions. They helped keep me organized and less stressed.
All of the wedding decor they have available to use is incredible and made our wedding day much less stressful, with less stuff to bring to the venue- it was all right there!
I truly cannot thank Cedar Valley Forest enough for making us feel so valued and celebrated as clients and to Andrea for being so calm and taking care of everything on the best day of our lives.
