Amazing wedding venue
We had our wedding on October 3, 2025 at the Candlewood Inn and it was the most incredible day we could've imagined. From the first time we toured the venue, we knew it would be the most stunning location for our wedding day and it only exceeded our expectations the day of. Aside from the amazing location, views, and food, the staff is beyond phenomenal. They allowed our day to run so smoothly with no stress at all. They took care of every single detail, placed every item I brought in exactly where it needed to go and handled all of the cleanup and packing at the end of the night. I didn't need to worry about a single thing. They truly allowed our wedding day to be the most fun, enjoyable and stress free night. Thank you to the Candlewood staff for making our wedding day the best day ever :)
Wedding @ The Candlewood Inn
We had our wedding at The Candlewood Inn this past June and had the best experience. We worked primarily with Conor Rubin and Krista Lewis leading up to the big day. They were both so helpful, always answering all of our questions, and making an effort to accommodate all of our special requests. From the service, to the food, views, and everything between, Candlewood is an amazing venue. We heard from many guests that they felt like they had been transported to a lake in Europe, especially during sunset! We cannot say enough positive things about this venue - they really go above and beyond to make sure your day goes perfectly and truly do care. We are so happy we decided to spend our special day at The Candlewood Inn - thank you to all of their staff for making it the best day!
