10/10 Recommend!!

If you're searching for the perfect wedding venue, look no further than Windwood. As a bride, I couldn't have imagined a more magical place to celebrate our special day. The picture-perfect grounds are simply breathtaking, with meticulously maintained lawns and stunning wooded landscapes that provided the most idyllic backdrop for our wedding photos. Every corner of Windwood is a photographer's dream, and our photos turned out absolutely spectacular.

One of the things I loved most about Windwood was the wide variety of options for both our ceremony and reception spaces. Whether you dream of an intimate courtyard ceremony, a grand celebration in an arena, or something in between, Windwood has the perfect setting to bring your vision to life. We opted for the smaller outdoor courtyard that faced the fields and woods—something we love—and it was perfect. Their flexibility in allowing us to choose our own vendors was a huge plus, as it meant we could personalize every detail to reflect our unique style and taste.

The team at Windwood is truly exceptional. From the moment we started planning, Lyndsey, the venue coordinator, was an absolute delight to work with. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and warm demeanor made the entire planning process seamless and enjoyable. She was always there to answer our questions and offer invaluable advice. On the day of the wedding, the entire team, including the friendly golf cart shuttle drivers, went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly. Their dedication and hard work allowed us to relax and fully enjoy every moment of our special day.

In summary, Windwood is a breathtaking venue with a variety of beautiful spaces, flexible vendor options, and an outstanding team committed to making your wedding day unforgettable. As a bride, I wholeheartedly recommend Windwood to anyone looking to create a magical and memorable wedding experience. It was everything I dreamed of and more.
