Would chose them time and time again

I do not know where to start complimenting Crossed Keys. Absolutely everything was perfect not just the day of the wedding but everything leading up to it. Planning with Crossed Keys was every bride's dream. I barely had to think about anything and they were communicative, accommodating and extremely dependable. The venue is magical, I had multiple guests saying it felt like a Disney wedding from the setting and that it was the best wedding they have ever been to. The food was amazing, no one could get enough. We are three months later and my guests are still talking about it and asking about specific dishes from cocktail hour so they could try and recreate it. The service staff was so incredibly kind and our sweetheart table constantly had food and drinks on it. The getting ready space is a makeup artists dream and we couldn't stop finding new spots to take pictures in. I mean everything was perfect, moved like clockwork and stress free. To say this team is professional would be the understatement of the century, they. are. magical. I can't say thank you enough or praise them enough, do yourself a favor and have your wedding here - you won't regret it!

Top Quality Service and Stunning Venue

Crossed Keys Estate went above and beyond to make sure our wedding day was exactly what we wanted - and more. The staff was generous, accommodating, solutions-focused and totally trustworthy. They followed our vision and kept us in the loop every step of the way. Jessica was the perfect day-of coordinator/leader who made us all feel totally calm and as if every detail was taken care of, and it was! I could not recommend this venue more to all potential couples. You will not be disappointed one bit, I can guarantee it. Plus, the food is the best you'll get at a large-scale venue. Our guests talked about the food for weeks after!

Wow. A dream come true

Crossed Keys Estate exceeded all our expectations and more! As a family-owned and operated venue, every aspect, from operations to floral arrangements to food, exudes a heartfelt touch. From the moment we stepped foot inside, we knew it was the one for us, and we couldn't be happier with our decision. The food was exquisite, the decor breathtaking, with candlelit ambiance creating a romantic atmosphere that perfectly matched the vision we had in mind. The team at Crossed Keys Estate was incredibly accommodating, allowing us to customize every detail to perfection. Throughout the night, every staff member doted on us, ensuring we felt taken care of at every turn. A special shoutout goes to our wedding coordinator, Kiersten, who was a true godsend. From months before the wedding to the final moments of our special day, she was by our side, answering every question, rallying for us, and ensuring our vision came to life flawlessly. Kiersten's meticulous attention to detail and efficiency ensured that nothing was overlooked; she coordinated everything to perfection, seamlessly following our timeline and making every requested detail a reality. We are forever grateful to the entire team at Crossed Keys Estate for making our dream wedding a reality.
