My entire bridal party and I stayed here my wedding weekend and it was fabulous! The house is so large so no one felt on top of eachother with multiple seating areas and common spaces all beautifully decorated Not to mention my cousin and I got to wake everyone up with our piano playing in the formal living room on the day of our wedding. The property is absolutely gorgeous and I felt like I was in a Nancy Myers movie while staying here. The landscaping is so well done and the massive kitchen was so helpful in feeding everyone while we were getting our hair and makeup done! Not to mention it was so great being able to have my dog there with me!

Montlaurel was the perfect venue for our engagement party! From the very first interaction, Amanda and Keith were incredibly friendly, quick to respond, and easy to relate to. They made the planning process seamless, handling all the details so I didn't have to worry about a thing. The space itself was absolutely gorgeous - And the value was unbeatable, especially considering the incredible service and beautiful venue.
