Hayden Heelan(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 11-04-2021 Amazing! My husband and I were suppose to get married in April of 2020, well that was before the country shut down. We still got married but postponed the ceremony to 2021. Ashley Mills was hands down the best person to work with, even during a pandemic she was always there to help and support us with every step when planning our wedding day. Ashley always had a smile when we worked with her and always willing to help with ideas. The venue is absolutely gorgeous, the food is amazing and the staff is incredible. Ashley helped make our smaller than planned wedding seem as if we did not have half as many people. I could go on and on about the amazing experience we have received over the last two years working with Ashley and her team, but there are not enough words. It was hands down the best day and honestly even better than we imagined. Blew my expectations out of the water and I would definitely work with Ashley and her team. They say planning a wedding is stressful, but honestly my experience was stress free and I am so glad we were able to have our wedding here. Reviewed on 23-04-2021

Alicia Foster(bride)4 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 10-10-2020 Our wedding day was amazing, minus the golf carts riding past our reception that took place outside. We were told they would be blocked off during that time . But that didn't happen. ๐.. Ashely was absolutely amazing during the whole process though. She was attentive and helped make our vision come to life! She made it all happen in a mo the too!! Which I didn't believe was possible.. gave a us great option when it came to the food and had a beautiful set us outside for us. We gave her a generous tip just because she really went above and beyond the whole way through. I found out later we had a table blew over before I walked Down the isle and she quickly did a turnover on it before I even notice!! Which was a great to know, so I wouldn't stress out lol. My guest were able to grab drinks from the bar as much as they wanted during the reception and the venues staff were pretty awesome too. Just wish they had a better handle on their residents and those golf carts lol. But other then that we had an amazing time and I'd highly recommend this venue for your small or big wedding party.

Pair that with the most amazing coordinator Ashley Mills, the seriously delicious food they prepair, the courtiousness of all employees, a beautiful sunset, and a glass of wine and I could not have been more happy finding this little gem to have my wedding at. Even if this place was a dump I think I would still have had my wedding here because of how perfect Ashley was! She probably could have made it look gorgeous regardless too! But luckily they have the beautiful green scenery and large lake with a fountain that made the outdoor ceremony and pictures to die for during sunset. Reviewed on 23-05-2019
Lauren Diesner(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 06-10-2018 The venue at IronOaks was absolutely stunning for our wedding day. IronOaks provided the most beautiful and intimate setting for both our cocktail hour outside and wedding reception inside. The food was delicious and elegant, many of our guests went to the stations for seconds and even thirds. It was evident the staff invested their time and efforts in the many details of our wedding as not one detailed was overlooked. Meeting with Ashley was not only fun, but also informative of the many options that were available to us at the IronOaks venue. We wanted a place that we could celebrate our wedding with our family and friends to the early morning hours of 2 a.m. Ashley Mills made sure that everything ran smoothly that day, and if anything didn't run as planned we had no idea about it. We were able to personalize everything for our Sports Themed wedding, which Ashley Mills greatly supported and provided even more ideas to consider. The IronOaks venue worked very well with our outside vendors and when we saw the ballroom, we were absolutely speechless by how breathtaking the room looked with the flowers and linens that glowed in the endless candlelight. Ashley checked in with us when we arrived and had a beautiful bottle of Rose awaiting us! Everything we envisioned for our wedding was made possible by Ashley Mills and her amazing team at IronOaks!
