    If your wedding priorities include getting married in a beautiful place, being extremely well taken care of, and eating DELICIOUS food, using CT Wedding Group is the way to go! We worked with the CT Wedding Team for our wedding at the Pavilion for 2 years and they were amazing to work with from day one. They were there for us every step of the way and really made the all of the planning as low stress as it could be. The entire team is friendly, responsive, and VERY good at their jobs. Whatever your questions, whatever your requests, they’ll work with you to make your dream wedding happen. Our dream day was especially made possible by Sean & Melissa’s expertise. They had the entire handles from start to finish and made sure our big day was flawless. Sean and Melissa always knew exactly what we needed and had it ready to go for us before we even asked. Truly phenomenal to work with—they made our dream wedding a reality and we can’t thank them enough. We guarantee you can trust CT Wedding for all of your planning needs and would recommend them to anyone looking for the perfect venue and planning team.

    From the moment we started planning our wedding at The Pavilion on Crystal Lake, the team at CT Wedding Group was incredibly timely and helpful in their communication. Their attention to detail and ability to juggle all the moving pieces of our special day was truly impressive. The venue itself was GORGEOUS - the ease of set up and break down made the day go so smoothly. And the food? 10/10! We are out of state and planned this wedding from CA, and we wouldn't have had such a success without the amazing day-of coordinator, Shannon. I could not recommend this venue and CT Wedding Group more highly. Our 10/10 experience was truly unforgettable.

    The venue is extremely beautiful and we had the pleasure of having our wedding here! Everyone was accommodating! We planned our wedding all the way from Chicago and not once did they stop communicating with me! They always kept me updated and would contact me with new information. They were also so nice about zoom meeting since I lived so far away! I’m also extremely thankful for Shannon our wedding coordinator! She kept up with our schedule even when we had huge set backs. She made sure I ate and requested for no one to come up while I ate. She took on that role and told everyone to wait until I was done. The way she was so accommodating to our needs the day of the wedding means so much to us! Thank you Shannon you are the very best! The food is amazing!!!!
