    My daughter’s wedding at Chateau1870 was absolutely beautiful. As someone who had never planned a wedding before, I was overwhelmed at first — but the owners went above and beyond to guide me through every step of the process. Their support was genuine, consistent, and incredibly thoughtful. From the moment we started planning, it felt like they were just as invested in the day as we were. They weren’t just offering a venue — they were offering heartfelt support. Their attention to detail and willingness to help made it feel like they were planning the wedding for their own daughter. That’s how much they truly cared. The venue itself is stunning, whether you’re envisioning an elegant outdoor ceremony or a cozy, intimate indoor celebration. I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect setting — or more authentic, kind-hearted people to work with. I would highly recommend Chateau1870 to anyone planning a wedding. You’ll not only get a beautiful space but a team that’s fully committed to making your special day unforgettable.

    Chateau1870 was the perfect hidden gem for our wedding celebration. From the very first interaction, the team was incredibly professional, accommodating, and personal in their communication style. They were flexible and hands-on throughout the planning process, always going the extra mile to ensure our vision came to life. On the day of, Arlene and James even took some lovely candid photos of the lovely couple, capturing the charming, intimate moments that contributed to making Carolyn and Taurean's wedding day so special. The quaint, historic venue provided the perfect cozy backdrop for nuptials. We couldn't have asked for a better experience - Chateau1870 is truly a gem and we highly recommend them to any couple planning their big day.

    The Chateau1870 was the perfect venue to have the dream wedding that me and my bride wanted to have. The vintage look was everything we wanted and the communication and hard work that Arlene and James provided was top notch as they were both able to help out in every way possible with decor, music, and the food. We both still talk about how special our wedding was and we couldn’t have done it without the wonderful service of Chateau1870, if you ever need a venue for a wonderful, small intimate wedding, this is the place to go for, highly recommended!!!
