The Perfect Day at the Perfect Venue

Red August created a stunning backdrop for my daughter and her new husband's wedding! The owners were so friendly, flexible, and attentive to our every need or want! The beautiful buildings and perfectly manicured grounds created the perfect picture for the perfect day!

Best day of my life

It's hard to put into words how absolutely wonderful it was to have our 10/31 wedding at Red August. Not only is the entire property GORGEOUS, but the owners, Debbie and Mark, are so lovely and amazing to work with. They're so flexible, professional, and genuinely care about every couple's experience. They made sure we had whatever resources we needed to have a successful day.
When you book you get the venue for a whole weekend. It was perfect to have our rehearsal in on Friday. Additionally, I was able to stay in the beautiful bridal suite over night. Having the whole weekend also ensures that you won't have to rush to clean up after your wedding!
We really cannot recommend this venue enough!
