All around stellar venue

I’m in love with our wedding day! Full service, awesome coordinators, bar staff, servers that are efficient. The whole wedding went so smooth! Anything that may have gone wrong, I don’t know about, which is the way you want it right? We had our ceremony at the venue and people sat at their tables. Lots of comments about how awesome it was to grab a drink and have a spot to sit to watch. Then, no commute to a reception. The food is to die for. The space looks like a regular hall at first, but they put up tule and lights and backdrops (for a reasonable fee) and bam the place is sparkling. There is a private outdoor space with tables and a large fire pit. They have a restaurant attached so you can go check out the food and vibe, which was cool. We had such a fun wedding! I am so happy we had it at Rockwoods!

Excellent Venue

From the booking and planning process, they made it very easy and stress free. They were there to answer any questions we had. Come the wedding day, they handled everything perfectly. The food was awesome and they were so fun to work with! I would highly recommend them as a venue.

Best day ever

We cannot say enough good things about our experience with Rockwoods and neither can our guests! From start to finish they were so helpful and easy to work with. We dropped all our decorations off Friday and they set it up beautifully and then cleaned it all up when it was over. It was two less things we had to stress about. The food was delicious and responsibly priced. We have received so many compliments about the food and the service from our guests. We highly recommend going with Rockwoods for your wedding, you won’t regret it!

Professional, friendly, and ready to do anything they can to make your day everything you dreamed it to be. My husband and I hosted our rehearsal dinner at Rockwoods Banquet Center and I was so thankful for a relaxed and intimate celebration with those standing by our side the next day!
