The distinguished grandeur of a hilltop Gilded Age mansion, breathtaking views of Hudson Valley sunsets from terraced patios, and acres of lush gardens combine to make Le Chateau an unforgettable destination for weddings and special events.
High on a hillside in Westchester (South Salem), New York, Le Château was commissioned by J.P. Morgan in 1907 as a gift for his pastor and friend, the Rev. William S. Rainsford. Originally called Savin Rock, the country retreat was designed by Atterbury & Atterbury, prominent architects of the day.
The tudor-style mansion of brick and stone would be virtually impossible to duplicate today, both financially and in craftsmanship. The rooms are paneled in American chestnut, a wood no longer available, cherry and oak. Huge chestnut beams are found throughout, and all of the woodwork was hewn and detailed by hand. Grand staircases and massive stone fireplaces are further reminders of a gracious era long past.
Today, the venue’s updated lobby and cocktail spaces preserve the history of the mansion, with every antique detail and surface inspected and refreshed. To inject a modern New York City sensibility to the property, Le Chateau partnered with preeminent designer KG+D Architects to add a breathtaking new ballroom which features soaring ceilings and glittering chandeliers. This fusion of old and new results in a mindfully designed venue, where guests can now experience the romance of the past in authentic spaces, without compromise.

Our January 2024 wedding at Le Chateau was beautiful and absolutely seamless. The staff was helpful throughout our planning process, and in particular I want to highlight Tori, who answered all of my questions along the way. The space is gorgeous, and our guests couldn't say enough good things about the whole building. The food was also a huge hit across the board (go for the Spud bar!). We couldn't be happier with our choice. Reviewed on 17-01-2024

September 1, 2023 was our daughter’s wedding. It was the best week of the entire summer. The views were breathtaking especially the sunset. The food was absolutely delicious as everyone raved about it. The service provided was fantastic …we had “ Riley “ who was so sweet and attentive to everyone’s needs. This is how a wedding should be done..For the family- who worries the most. It’s a proud moment when we can sit back and know that a venue takes such pride as well as their employees. It shows in the manner they conduct business. From the very beginning until the last minute, at the end of the night, they were nothing but amazing . There are not enough thank you’s to go around to the entire staff , the chef & and their wait staff . Simply the Best!!! Reviewed on 04-01-2024

My husband and I got married at Le Chateau on 10/7/23 and truly could not have imagined a better venue. It POURED on our wedding day - and all of the guests are still saying it was the most fun and beautiful wedding they’ve ever been to. Le Chateau has so many options for rain or shine that you won’t ever have to worry!Guests are still raving about cocktail hour, dinner, and dessert stations and even our signature drinks. The entire team at Le Chateau - Sarah, Tori, the bridal attendants, and wait staff are so welcoming and attentive. You cannot go wrong with having your wedding at Le Chateau. We hope that one of our friends will get married there so we can go back!! Thank you Le Chateau for making our dreams come true!! Reviewed on 12-12-2023

We could not be happier with our choice of venue for our wedding. Le Chateau is a rare gem that is worth every penny. We had the most memorable and wonderful wedding - the atmosphere was intimate and cozy for cocktail hour, and the reception hall is gorgeous. The food is five stars - it was like dining out at a Michelin rated restaurant in Manhattan (where we live). The service is impeccable - all our guests complimented us for such outstanding service. The bridal attendant I had, Claudia, knew what I needed before I even asked for it. She made me feel so comfortable and taken care of - as if I was the most important person in the world... Unforgettable! Sarah, Tori, Debbie and the rest of the Le Chateau staff made sure everything went smoothly - there were literally no hiccups from the venue at all. The setting is so picturesque and everything felt so magical. We are so grateful to the team, and feel so lucky to have had the wedding of our dreams at Le Chateau. Reviewed on 10-12-2023

Our wedding at Le Chateau was perfect and we wouldn't have changed a thing! The staff did everything they could beforehand and the day of to make sure we were happy and our vision was being met. The food was incredible and the venue's indoor and outdoor spaces are all gorgeous! We held our ceremony inside the ballroom but were able to take outdoor photos earlier in the day, and everything went extremely smoothly. We were worried that without a planner there would be a lot of added work on us, but it was totally manageable and Debbie understood where everything was supposed to go and how the night's timeline was supposed to work. We would highly recommend Le Chateau and would have no doubts recommending this venue! Reviewed on 21-11-2023

This venue was absolutely amazing! My dreams came true with this venue, the food was amazing. All people could talk about was how fantastic the food was and how beautiful the venue was. If you are looking for a rustic lodge vibe, with a clean elegant ballroom look this is the venue for you. They were so kind and so helpful with planning. To us, it was an easy sell on the venue but Sarah sold us immediately with everything it has to offer. Tori was so helpful in coordinating and making sure we had everything done and Debbie our Maître d' was so nice and felt like home. Debbie really made sure the night went so smoothly and always checked up on us to make sure it was a night to remember. Her calm and sweet nature made the day relaxing for us and felt like we had nothing to worry about. Ryli our bridal attendant was attending and sweet! It's funny how everyone always warns you like \"something will go wrong but it doesn't matter and no one will know\" but seriously, nothing went wrong in my eyes and I'm so grateful for that. Because everything went so perfectly, I am only saying one nit-picky thing that really does not matter at all. The only thing I would say not to do is bring your own alcohol bottles to drink to leave behind the bar if it is not on the drink package because one of my nice bottles got lost (not all of them but only mine) when I was the only one drinking it (which I barely had any) and not to be shared, however that was an added thing that is absolutely not necessary and at the end of the day doesn't matter. Otherwise, you cannot go wrong with this venue! Reviewed on 07-11-2023

The wedding venue of our dreams!! Hard to put into words how incredible Le Chateau truly is, from the staff to the stunning architecture, we couldn’t have imagined a better experience. From the moment we took the tour of the venue, we knew we found a perfect place. The staff are there for you every step of the process, ready to answer questions and help anyway they can. When it came to the day of the wedding everything flowed seamlessly, and we felt like royalty. The staff was there not only for us from the moment we got there, but all our guests can’t stop complementing how amazing they were. I feel so grateful to have had the most amazing wedding day with Le chateau being such a big part of that. We can’t thank them enough, and just hope to be back as wedding guests soon!!

We chose Le Chateau for its elegant ballroom, refined cocktail space, and gorgeous grounds. We had a beautiful wedding and all LC staff were friendly and professional. Our bridal attendant was especially helpful and tended to not only mine (bride) but our immediate family's needs without question. The food was awesome as well and our guest's were definitely impressed. The only major complaint for this venue is the *strict* bridal suite entrance time. You are not allowed into the space until 10am and no matter how many extra hair and makeup artists I hired to try and make up for that lost time in the morning, we were extremely tight on time. Because of this, we could not make our cocktail hour at all, despite doing a first look and extending to 1.5 hours. This was extremely disappointing and something to consider when choosing a venue (if it is important to you to get ready in the bridal suite). Overall a beautiful wedding venue!

I wouldn't have done my wedding anywhere else. Le Chateau is absolutely incredible. The venue is stunning- a great mix of new architecture and old (which was a perfect match for me and my husbands taste), the staff is absolutely incredible and accommodating (they really know what they are doing) and the entire experience is one that makes you feel incredibly loved and important on your wedding day. Communication was clear, everyone was professional and their main goal is to make you happy and satisfied. Highly recommend!!Special shoutout to my Bridal Attendant, Claudia. This woman is incredible. She has an amazing work ethic, is the nicest/kindest woman you will ever meet and truly makes you feel like a princess on your wedding day. My day would not have been the same without her. My entire bridal party was just overwhelmed with how amazing she was. Highly recommend requesting her if possible- you will not regret it. Love you, Claudia! <3 Reviewed on 08-09-2023

My husband and I got married at Le Chateau in April of 2023, and we can genuinely say that we wouldn’t change a thing. We had the most incredible time - and we wish more than anything that we could relive it! We fell in love with the venue the moment we walked through the door, and that appreciation only grew as time went on - and after the glowing reviews of all of our wedding guests. The team was truly a pleasure to work with from start to finish - so accommodating, professional, warm, and organized.

Janey Van de Weghe(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 24-03-2023 Le Chateau was such a pleasure to work with from start to finish. From our initial tour to the follow-up email the morning after our wedding, Le Chateau was nothing but professional, thoughtful in approach and design of the day’s programming, flexible, and kind. It was so easy (something I never thought I’d say planning my own wedding!!) working with Sarah, Tori, and Debbie to figure out everything from the menu to table arrangements to the lineup for the ceremony. We loved every second of our day and it was because Le Chateau and the truly amazing staff could run a knockout wedding with their eyes closed. Our next goal is to attend someone else’s wedding at Le Chateau so we can admire their work as true guests. On to the food! We have nothing but great things to say y’all. Le Chateau offers practically a book full of passed appetizer options for your cocktail hour with the most impressive choices of appetizer stations. We went with Southern Comfort and Poke stations and passed apps including mini sliders and a beer shooter, a mini grilled cheese and tomato soup shooter, and lamb chops to name just a sampling. Rave reviews from our guests. The burnt ends at the SoCo station were a huge hit and we loved the lighter & gluten free but still wildly sophisticated Poke station. For dinner, Le Chateau was so accommodating. In late March, we worried about what would be in season because Le Chateau’s menu selections are labeled for spring/summer and fall/winter. As it turns out, we got the best of everything. We were assured that although our “summer squash” risotto was named as such, it would not taste unseasonal. And it didn’t — everything was delicious. The entree proteins we chose of swordfish, NY strip steak, and cauliflower steak were good sizes! With the selections from the cocktail hour and the first & second courses, there was ample food for the evening. We loved every second of our day. We never would have wanted to spend it somewhere else. Reviewed on 06-04-2023

Needless to say we had high hopes leading up to the big day and Le Chateau exceeded all expectations! Debbie and Claudia ushered me up to the bridal suite and from then on I didn’t lift a finger. The staff were so thoughtful and attentive - for example Claudia brought me a mug of hot water to warm my hands after taking outdoor photos and was constantly bringing me water telling me to stay hydrated. Food was amazing, I wish I had had more of the cocktail hour apps. Our guests raved about dinner (the halibut was a hit). Table service was top notch. It was a nice touch that guests could order drinks from the waitstaff or go to the bar. The ambience was perfect for our black tie reception. We got married in February so guests loved the fire places. Sunsets at Le Chateau are beautiful, make sure to time your day accordingly! Hoping we can experience Le Chateau as guests in the future.

A year later as our wedding date approached, Tori was very personable and helpful with finalizing the details and making sure we covered everything. When the day of came around, the matîre d’ Debbie kept things moving seamlessly so that we could enjoy our day. The bridal attendant Riley was by my side from the moment we arrived to Le Chateau to the moment we left. Riley helped me from carrying my dress and bouquet, assisted with photographer with pictures and even suggested a pose for one of our favorite pictures at the beautiful bar. She always made sure we had a drink available and brought us food as we were running around before the cocktail hour ended. She even helped with bustling my dress.

Carolyn Lawler(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 30-12-2022 The first word that comes to mind is EXCEPTIONAL. We were the last wedding of the 2022 season, and we went out with quite the bang! From the start we were taken care of by Sarah, who graciously answered each and every question we had when we were looking to book at Le Chateau as our venue. This was one of the first vendor visits we had, so she was so kind and insightful in making sure we were asking the right questions during tours - testing out the seating, and giving us great advice for hosting a winter wedding (ie, are there generators in case power were to go out, is there a complimentary coat-check, what is the snow plan, etc).The cocktail hour is in the main part of the mansion, and during the month of December is decked out with greenery, candles, and actual roaring fireplaces. It's unreal.Tori was assigned as our day-of event coordinator, and she was such a pleasure to work with from the start. Tori was super responsive to emails and helped us with any detail leading up to the wedding.We had our tasting in April - and it was set up like a wedding where future brides/grooms came to party, try out stations and meet with a handful of recommended vendors. All of the food was extraordinary. There was one station we would have never considered having at our wedding until we tried it at the tasting - the China Town Station. We decided to add that at the last minute, and I'm telling you - people are STILL raving about it.Kristene was our Maitre'D, and she knocked it out of the park! Everything was impeccably organized and no detail went unnoticed. On drop-off two days before the wedding, she made an inventory of every item brought in, where it should go, and how it should look. She and her team also quickly packed up all of those items, and packed them into my car for me.Ryli was our bridal attendant - and when I originally didn't know what a bridal attendant did, the answer is literally EVERYTHING. Ryli is the only reason we ate anything at cocktail hour, and even bustled my dress for me. She also boxed up any part of our dinner we were unable to finish. She is the epitome of a rockstar. Anywhere I turned, she was helping me with my train, making sure I was where I needed to be for the photographer, bringing me drinks, and even made a smorgasbord of all the stations and passed apps so we could try them. I don't know what we would have done without her, but we are so ever grateful.The food was so good that it made me wish I could just eat there all of the time. The cocktail stations were flowing with food, and everyone couldn't get enough of that and the passed apps. Dinner was amazing - we had the pumpkin ravioli, trevisano salad, and an option of the 24-hour short rib, faroe salmon or eggplant. The 24-hour short rib was the best thing I've ever eaten - you didn't even need to use a knife!The waitstaff, bartenders and cooks overall were simply phenomenal. At no point did any guest feel like they needed anything - the waitstaff were so proactive, that if they saw someone with an almost finished glass, they were on it to replace/refill before it was even asked.We had many people say this was the best wedding they have ever been to and that we set the bar high - and these are some people who are exceptionally hard to impress. Le Chateau is a premium wedding venue that values a luxurious, no detail missed experience. Trust the process, and totally trust their recommended vendor list - everyone was WONDERFUL.

Marianne Palmer(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 04-11-2022 When you are planning your wedding you always hear “something will go wrong, don’t sweat the small stuff, at the end of the day it doesn’t matter because you are married.” We felt this was good advice, so we went into our day with that mindset just expecting there to be some small things that we couldn’t predict go wrong, but that just wasn’t the case with Le Chateau. The day was PERFECT from start to finish.We had our wedding at Le Chateau this past November, and we can't say enough good things about our whole experience. When we first saw Le Chateau in person, it was a cold rainy day and as we pulled into the driveway it started snowing. Sarah told us this was the best weather for touring venues because you get to see the worst case scenario, and we fell in love with the venue in \"worst case scenario\" conditions. The venue speaks for itself, Le Chateau is a stunning location all around. We were unbelievably lucky that our wedding was 70 degrees and sunny in November and were able to use the garden for our ceremony, take beautiful photos all around the property and get sunset photos, but after seeing it in the snow we knew that we would have also been 100% content with a cold rainy day for our wedding because Le Chateau has such warm atmosphere.When it came to the planning process, of all the venues we looked at, we felt that Sarah was the most thorough when going over what was included with Le Chateau's package. We were given prices after tax & service charge instead of X amount ++ like every other place does to make the cost seem lower. Tori and Sarah were both quick to respond to all of our questions and were more than accommodating with everything we wanted for our day! Our wedding day details meeting a couple of months before our wedding completely put us at ease, they were prepared for anything we wanted for our wedding and were happy to work with us to make our vision a reality.Debbie, the maitre d, was fantastic. We were taking photos after we did a first look and family portraits and when we were done and relaxing before the ceremony I realized we never did a rehearsal and panicked momentarily when the whole bridal party was like “we did do a rehearsal! Debbie took us and had us do a run through while you guys took your pictures!” And it went so smoothly, everyone knew exactly when to walk down the aisle and where to stand. It was perfect!Riley was our bridal attendant, and she was so sweet and so helpful and was with us until we left the venue for the night. She was there throughout photos to help carry the train of my dress and flowers and she ran between photos to get us water. She had a full tray of passed hors d’oeuvres during cocktail hour that she followed us with as we talked with guests, and she made us two large plates of all the cocktail hour food and had it in the bridal suite for us to eat before our grand entrance. She was awesome!All of the staff at Le Chateau are next level, seriously. Everyone we spoke to was so wonderful! We wanted to take a cute/funny photo at the bar and the bartenders who were setting things up made the bar look nice and whipped us up quick drinks so we’d have them for the pictures. The servers were all amazing. Our family and friends have been nonstop talking about our wedding and how impressed they were with the staff, the venue and the food!If we could do it all again, we would in a heart beat!

From the moment we toured the space until the last guest left the dance floor, the experience was beyond our wildest expectations. The menu options accommodate all tastes and the chef deserves a Michelin star. The outdoor garden is a lovely backdrop for the wedding ceremony and the ballroom is an exquisite backup if there is weather. The bridal party took advantage of beautiful upstairs space for hair/makeup and the family room and groom room are wonderful areas to catch your breath. Our daughter and her groom did their first look in a private garden and pictures with an October sunset in the background were breathtaking. The staff's attention to detail ensured that we did not need to worry about a thing. So many of the guests remarked it was the best wedding they had ever attended. Sarah Schiller, Sales Director at Le Chateau, is a wedding whisperer. She is calm and joyful and the perfect face for the venue. No request was too big, no question too small.

Booking Le Chateau is a decision we will NEVER regret! We hope we have the opportunity to attend a wedding there as a guest because it was honestly that incredible.

Mary Blair(other)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 05-06-2022 We had our wedding at Le Chateau in June 2022 and it could not have been more perfect. We started working with Sarah and Tori in December 2018 for an original 2020 date. We went through multiple date changes and they were so understanding and accommodating. When the time to really get going with planning came Tori was so organized and easy to work with. Debbie and Riley made sure everything was taken care of the day of and that no detail was missed. Overall, they were so lovely and pleasant to work with and the venue is absolutely stunning. Our family and friends are still raving about the team at Le Chateau and the food! Reviewed on 08-07-2022
Christine Cannata(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 26-03-2022 My husband and I could not have asked for a better wedding venue than Le Chateau! The staff at Le Chateau is AMAZING. It honestly felt as if they all treated us like family. I literally did not have to worry about one thing the day of the wedding because the entire team at Le Chateau is so solid and experienced. Furthermore, I can honestly say that nothing went wrong on our wedding day. The venue is STUNNING. When you drive up the hill to Le Chateau it has such a grand feel. Right from the start, guests are in awe over the structure and the setting. Then, you walk through the beautiful entrance to a cocktail hour with so much character. There is plenty of room for guests to mingle and have private, special moments. The views out the back are breathtaking, and the sunsets are to die for! The gorgeous new ballroom is spectacular with numerous massive chandeliers. Our guests could not get over the whole experience from start to finish!Sarah was so incredibly kind and accommodating. She was always available to discuss any aspect of the wedding. Right from the beginning, my husband and I knew that we were in good hands. One thing that was very obvious about Sarah is that she really does care about each bride/groom. She takes a personal interest to get to know and understand each couple. Tori was on top of everything! Helping with last minute changes and finalizing every last detail. It was so helpful that she knew the perfect flow for the evening. The last few weeks of wedding planning are of course very stressful, so thank goodness for Tori who eased our anxiety and transformed our vision to a reality! She took so much stress off of our plates.Debbie made sure the whole night ran so smoothly! So many people mentioned that not one thing went wrong the whole evening. Not only did she make sure the night ran smoothly for all of our guests, but she also paid special attention to my husband and I. She offered to get us a new warm entree in case ours got cold while we were talking with guests. She made sure our drinks were topped off without us having to ask. She made last minute seating changes for our guests as if it didn’t even phase her. She was so calming and so helpful!Christine was the absolute best. She was always 10 steps ahead of whatever I needed! One thing that I am so thankful for is that she made sure Mike and I actually enjoyed our cocktail hour! In between mingling with guests, she made sure that we were well fed and hydrated. She had the perfect balance of knowing exactly what I needed without being in the way. I really can’t imagine the day without her.The food was spectacular! All of our guests agreed that every food item served was delicious. It’s also important to note that each table has it’s own individual server. This is very important because it significantly decreased lines at the bar. Many people commented how convenient it was to always have a server to get you a drink, instead of spending half the night in line at the bar.I am so beyond grateful for the entire staff at Le Chateau. Le Chateau is the ideal wedding venue because it has a very special, unique feel and is backed with staff who understands how to throw a spectacular wedding. I honestly cannot imagine a wedding anywhere else. Le Chateau will make sure that you and your guests have an incredible and stress free wedding that is executed perfectly! Reviewed on 29-06-2022
Joseph Callaci(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 10-06-2022 My wife and I recently got married at Le Chateau on June 10th 2022. We wholeheartedly recommend this venue! The simplistic beauty of the ceremony garden, the stone staircases around the property, the grand ballroom with statement-level chandeliers. The views, the sunset. The property itself is enough to get married there. The food — Our guests haven’t stopped talking about it. The quality and attention to detail. Home run. The Service — You then delve into the level of service. During an admittedly stressful time, Sarah and her staff essentially held our hand through everything. That’s rare these days to have a whole team ushering you through every moving part of your big day (This includes the months leading up to the actual wedding to make sure we had our s*** together!). Also the guests themselves were in awe of the individual waiter service at each table. No bar lines, attentiveness. The flow of the night was impeccable. If I could give 6 stars I would. Endless thanks to Sarah, Patty, Tori, Debbie and the bridal attendant in which the name escapes me — and everyone else that made our wedding seamless and beautiful for us and our guests. -Ellen & Joe Reviewed on 23-06-2022
Greg Hyman(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 09-04-2022 It’s hard to put into words how perfect our wedding day was, other than to say it was the best day of my life. First of all, the planning process was seamless. Le Cheteau was so clearly deliberate with all of their processes, to make sure their brides/grooms had the least amount of stress to make their wedding day so much fun and so special. The venue itself is so unique and so gorgeous. The outside looks like the titular chateau, with a charming cocktail hour area, robust getting ready area, and brand new, stunning and elegant ballroom. The grounds are immaculate and beautiful. But most importantly, THE FOOD IS SO SO SO GOOD!!!! They customized whatever we wanted for our menu, and all of the food is made to order on the day of the event. This is not typical wedding food. It legitimately rivaled food from the best restaurants in NYC. The only complaints we got from our wedding guests were that they were too full for all the dessert. Thanks so much to Sarah, Tori, Debbie and Mary for going out of their way at every opportunity to make sure my wife and I, and our guests, had the most perfect, memorable wedding. 5 stars!

Justine Steinberger(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 08-05-2022 Le Chateau was absolutely incredible. The venue is beyond stunning- such gorgeous scenery on top of a mountain, great outdoor space for the ceremony and a beautiful ballroom where the sunset light pierced through the windows. The food was amazing- everyone was raving about it the whole night! The staff including Sarah, Debbie and Tori were super attentive and accommodating as we had to reschedule our date due to COVID. Our bridal attendant, Claudia, was absolutely incredible. She was so sweet and easy to get along with, and went above and beyond to cater to any type of need that arose. She anticipated things that we didn't even think of- like keeping us hydrated in between taking pictures, and making food packages for us so that we wouldn't miss out. Everything about this place was absolutely perfect and I couldn't have imagined a better day anywhere else. Thank you for everything!! Reviewed on 16-05-2022
Tracy Bratt(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 16-07-2021 Le Chateau embodied everything my husband and I hoped to find in a wedding venue: an elegant, gorgeous space with top-notch food. To say that Le Chateau met our every expectation is an understatement; every single person made our wedding day -- and the time leading up to it -- feel like a fairytale. Where to even begin? We first experienced Le Chateau as wedding guests for my best friend's October 2019 wedding. My husband and I weren't engaged yet, but he turned to me and said, \"This is the venue for us.\" When we got engaged in February 2020, we knew that Le Chateau was at the top of our list. I was pleasantly surprised to find that a Friday in July was absolutely in our budget, and once we had our wonderful tour of the venue, we locked in our date of July 16, 2021. Sarah, the sales director, was an absolute joy and made the process easy for us! Lo and behold, the COVID lockdown occurred just one week after we signed our contract. Throughout the year and a half leading up to our wedding, Le Chateau was *incredible* in keeping us informed of requirements. Whenever I had a question or concern, I received a speedy response from the team. As we approached our wedding date, I had full confidence in Le Chateau’s ability to host our dream wedding. Working with Debbie and Tori (event coordinator), I knew we – and our guests – were in excellent hands. They made sure every single part of the day went smoothly, and my husband and I *so* appreciate their speedy responses to our emails and questions! Our wedding day was, in a word, perfect – somehow even better than I imagined it would be! The food was phenomenal (we already knew this from attending that 2019 wedding!), and I appreciated that our wedding attendant made sure my husband and I had appetizers and drinks readily available during cocktail hour. Le Chateau worked beautifully with all of our vendors, making the reception schedule feel seamless. The venue and grounds are also beautiful; I cannot stress enough how much I love our photographs from the wedding! Best of all, our guests *raved* about every aspect of our wedding! One of my husband’s friends told him, “I’ve never been to a $100,000 wedding before!” While we didn’t pay *that* much (as I indicated, Le Chateau has options for a variety of budgets!), it is a testament to the type of experience you will get at this stunningly gorgeous venue. Le Chateau was undoubtedly the best decision we made regarding our wedding. I cannot say enough about how much we loved our experience. I only hope we can attend another wedding there in the future! Thank you again to the incredible staff for everything you did for us. Reviewed on 27-04-2022
Daniel Longhurst(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 27-03-2022 We got married at Le Chateau and have absolutely zero regrets with the decision. The venue is top notch at every turn. From planning with Sarah and Tori, to the day of with Debbie and Claudia, everything was smooth and truly perfect. We're a gay couple, and being treated appropriately was something we were worried about when selecting a venue. Le Chateau treated us with kindness and grace the whole way. They're extremely professional. Our attendant was the outstanding Claudia. She was there every step of the way and she made the day truly special and memorable for us. Any time she ran to grab something for us, everyone would say \"LOVE HER.\" When taking pictures, she would run up between shots with water and say \"HYDRATE!\" During cocktail hour, she came up to us with a tray of food and said \"EAT!\" The love we felt from her was something we'll remember and cherish for the rest of our lives. The food was excellent - we did the Southern Comfort and Poke stations which were hits! The service our guests received was stellar - many people kept saying \"this was the best service I've ever had at a wedding!\" Our guests had food practically the whole day so no one left hungry. Tip for those looking at this venue and are concerned about budget - off season and on Friday or Sunday will save you a LOT of money and you will still get the same experience. We did nothing \"added\" to the base package and have no regrets about it. Everything was spectacular. We had such a lovely day and would not hesitate to spend the money again. Thanks again Le Chateau for making our perfect day so special! Reviewed on 17-04-2022

The entire venue is gorgeous… from the inviting and cozy interior of the old house, to the gorgeous ballroom addition, and then there’s the amazing views… Le Chateau has it all. Then there’s the food… everything was DELICIOUS. And the amazing staff was the icing on the cake. From day one, Sarah was gracious and helpful… especially given the uncertainties of planning a COVID wedding. When we had to reschedule, she was there to answer all our questions and keep us sane. Tori was exceptional when it came to finalizing and planing the details of our day, making sure that our vision came to life and always answering our questions quickly. And on the big day, Debbie was the absolute best! She kept everyone and everything moving like a well oiled machine, the day went off without a hitch she’s got such great energy and made the day a breeze. I would love to go back here as a wedding guest, but would recommend anyone looking for a beautiful venue with an easy to work with crew. Reviewed on 09-04-2022

Sarah and Tori were always responsive and accessible, and they were really able to help us customize our wedding package even up until a few days before our event. Christine (my bridal attendant) was also wonderful and we couldn't have survived the day without her. I also know everyone says this, but all we heard from our guests was how fantastic the food was and I can only hope that I get invited to a wedding there so that I have time to try more of it!

Laura Pallone(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 04-12-2021 It’s hard to begin. There are so many glowing things to say about Le Chateau. My husband said, and our parents agreed, it’s the single best value item we spent our entire wedding budget on (as it should be!). We felt we got so much in one package – gorgeous space and grounds, outstanding food and drink -- and lots of it, stellar service through and through. If you want to treat your guests to something special, book with Le Chateau. I’ve had lots of close friends get married over the past year or so. After listening to their venue stories (especially during pandemic times), it’s evident that Le Chateau staff simply know what they are doing. They are in the business of great experiences. They take pride in what they do. It shows, and their reputation is well-earned. A few highlights to mention: We were a 2020 to 2021 COVID reschedule. Sarah (sales director and so much more) did everything in her power to make us feel comfortable with all the uncertainly in 2020 through ample communication. We planned the wedding long-distance, and I can’t count how many times I emailed Tori (event coordinator) with detailed questions over 1.5 years. She got back to me on every point. We had a safe event in early December 2021, and the staff was completely professional with COVID protocols. Brie (bridal attendant) was a saint. I was two months pregnant by the time we finally had our reception. Brie knew this and made sure that I was full with cocktail hour food and that I had non-alcoholic digestif drinks throughout the night! Debbie (maitre’d) was on top of everything. Le Chateau has a requirement that all décor is cleared out of the venue by night’s end. I had my bridesmaids prepped to do a sweep of the place before we left. In one of my favorite moves, Debbie and the staff had already gathered and boxed all of the items for us to walk out the door. Throughout the night, I never had to think about a thing. Le Chateau’s whole team is professional, respectful and kind. I couldn’t have dreamed of anything better, and it’s all their doing. Reviewed on 14-02-2022

Caroline LaCourse(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 14-01-2022 To say that Le Chateau earned 5 stars is an understatement. Amidst COVID spikes, Sarah (sales director) and Tori (event coordinator) worked with us up until the night before the wedding to ensure that my husband and I felt comfortable with many of our guests dropping last minute. They are both ROCKSTARS! The service was that of a 5 star restaurant and the food was second to none. Our photographer was so impressed with the staff he wanted to hire our bridal attendant, who was absolutely outstanding! The biggest \"complaint\" was that our guests' stomachs were too full to enjoy all the food! The atmosphere, class, and elegance of this establishment was noted by every single one of our guests.

Emily Sundel(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 07-01-2022 Selecting Le Chateau to host our wedding was the best decision we could have made. We started our wedding planning journey in October of 2019. When the COVID-19 pandemic came to light in March 2020 there was so much uncertainty; Sarah was a calming force in an already stressful and unprecedented time. She would check in with us and provide periodic updates on the status of our wedding - which was ultimately postponed to 2022. She was kind and genuine when the world lacked both. As we approached our new wedding date, we had the pleasure of working with both Tori and Debbie. They were consistent, responsive and while they had many other couples, they made us feel special and they built a personal rapport with us as individuals and as a couple. Tori treated us like family and, when last minute changes needed to be made the day before our wedding, Tori gracefully stepped in and handled everything for us so we could enjoy our time with family and friends. This is a theme that continued throughout our wedding day. The Le Chateau staff anticipated our needs, calmed our nerves, and guided us through what is now the best day of our lives. Claudia, our personal bridal attendant, was incredible. She was quiet yet confidently by our side all day. She made sure our all needs were met; she is so warm and kind. Claudia was the last person I saw before walking down the aisle. She carried my dress up the stairs so I would not trip. She braved the cold and threw my veil so I could get the pictures I dreamed of. She reminded us to stay hydrated and to eat. To prospective couples – the photos are what will make you stop and consider Le Chateau as a venue, and while the history of the building and the grand ballroom sell themselves. What the photos do not show is the stellar guest experience Le Chateau creates for both you and your guests. Le Chateau is the only venue I would trust to host such a momentous occasion in our lives. The food is delicious, the service is first class, and your guests will have an amazing time that will keep them talking for years to come. I wish we could go back and do it all over again.

What excited me the most about Le Chateau is that most guests told us they had never been there for a wedding, including my husband and me. Some couples might say that is too big of a gamble to take but I am here to tell you, you come out winning ten fold! What makes Le Chateau so special is it will impress every single type of guest you have - your judgy aunt who never has a nice thing to say, will rave about it.......and you'll even catch your guy friends from college taking sunset pics on their phones.If HGTV had a spin-off of house hunters for wedding venues, Le Chateau would be the only venue that hits the trifecta of qualities a couple is looking for: stunning grounds, delicious food (was told several times \"the best food I had at a wedding\"), and 12/10 service from the waitstaff for your guests to equally amazing Maitre'D, bridal attendant, and event coordinator.

Isabel Mendoza(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 07-08-2021 It's been a little over 2 months since our 8/7/21 wedding and I am still daydreaming about the big day! We met Sarah in November of 2018. Right from the start, Sarah was so professional, personable, and accommodating which made me, my husband, and my mom feel right at home. We toured many other venues but Le Chateau always had that lasting impression. I remember my breath was taken away when I walked into their grand ballroom and I laid eyes on the stunning chandelier. We booked our wedding date in December of 2018 and we just knew that Le Chateau and their team would be able to provide the spectacular wedding that we were hoping for. Once the pandemic hit, Le Chateau was consistently in touch with us and kept us posted about updates and changes. We ultimately postponed to August 2021. Gillian reached out to us and kept us informed about the ever-changing guidelines and COVID rules/regulations in the wedding industry. Closer to the wedding, Tori and Debbie were very detail oriented. We also felt that Le Chateau took COVID very seriously and felt very safe. Our big day went off with very few hitches! Debbie made an amazing suggestion in regards to the timing of our dinner, dancing and all the wedding formalities. She created an amazing flow that made sure our guests were dancing ALL NIGHT LONG, which was extremely important to us. People were amazed with how much dancing fit during the 4 hour reception. Being true foodies, the food was absolutely to die for. From the passed hors d’oeuvres to our stations, everything was executed well. We highly recommend the sea scallop as an appetizer, friends and family still talk about how it was the best scallop they have ever tasted. Guests were truly blown away by the amount of food and how well executed everything was. We hope to attend a wedding at Le Chateau as guests so we can enjoy and eat more of their food!

She made sure I was well-fed and my dress was perfect the whole night. The cocktail hour alone had so much food that many of my guests thought that it was dinner. While I was mingling with my guests, the attendants would prepare a tray of appetizers and deliver it to me and my husband for us to enjoy. The ballroom takes your breath away.

Nicole G(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 30-07-2021 My husband and I first toured Le Chateau in January 2019, and 2.5 years and one postponement later, it was well worth the wait to finally have our wedding reception at this magical venue in July 2021! From the moment I walked into the ballroom, my breath was taken away and I knew that this would be the place where we would have our wedding. The team at Le Chateau is extremely professional and we felt as though we really got to know the staff over the course of our long journey. There were many ups and downs due to the unprecedented challenges of COVID, but Sarah stuck by our side through it all and ensured us that everything would work out. Tori, Debbie, Nellie and my bridal attendant, Jill, were all excellent in the months and weeks leading up to the wedding and the day-of (special shout-out to Jill who helped to bustle my dress, and made sure I was fed and taken care of all night long!).

Liz Petitti(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 14-08-2021 I cannot give Le Chateau enough stars. They are consummate professionals and absolutely best of their field for what they do. From the booking end - Sarah takes care of everything. She was my rock and anchor during all of the COVID reschedules. She genuinely cares about you and your day, and knows exactly what to recommend to make it happen. On the actual day, the team there has EVERYTHING under control. Bridal attendant showing up with water to make sure you drink? Check. Sampler platter so you get to taste your cocktail hour food? Check. Maitre D making sure everything runs on time? Check check check. It was flawless. They have a wonderful operation and truely know how to provide hospitality for these events. There’s one server for table - people don’t even have to walk to the bar because the server will bring them drinks. And, of course, the food is SPECTACULAR. Food was so important to us, and our guests are STILL raving about how phenomenal everything was. Get the mini French onion soup boules during cocktail hour. You won’t be disappointed. Lastly, the views are stunning. Every corner of the property is a photo op, and the sunset is not to be missed. This place hosted our dream wedding, and they’re the biggest reason I can say my day was absolutely perfect. Reviewed on 25-08-2021

Tori Smith(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 21-02-2020 On February 21, 2020 my husband and I got married at Le Chateau. The venue is very professional and on top of the organization up to the day. They also remind you of what they need from you in a kind and caring manner. It was super helpful when they provided a list of recommended vendors. We got all of them from their list. On the day of our wedding, we arrived early to utilize the sun and outside space for our first look and some close family pictures. They provided us with snacks and champagne in the massive bridal suite, while the groomsmen enjoyed their cold beer in their space. Everyone was very attentive to our needs, making sure we got everything needed before the ceremony. The ceremony took place in the ballroom as the sun set behind us. It was a beautiful view of the landscape. At cocktail hour, the food was delicious!! We didn’t even need to add anything extra to what was already included by Le Chateau. All the guests raved about the food and the beautiful sunset. When we went into the ballroom, it was glowing from the gorgeous chandeliers!!! Yet another stunning feature of this venue.

First of all, it really is as beautiful as it looks in the photos. It was the first venue that my husband and I had toured, and we instantly submitted our deposit at the end of our 15 minute tour. Not only is the location and venue seriously stunning, but the team is incredible. After booking the venue exactly one year out, we stayed in close communication with Tori and the rest of the team. They were always ready to hop on a call and answer whatever questions we had. We did not have a wedding planner, but Le Chateau (and Tori especially!) helped make the planning process infinitely more organized and manageable. On the day of, the entire staff was extremely professional and made us feel very taken care of with their can-do (or more accurately, “have-done many, many times”) attitude. Debbie, our maitre d’, was basically the Sergeant Major of our actual wedding day. I was in awe of how she even managed to effectively wrangle our family members, despite their big personalities and language barriers. We even had a cultural element to our reception (in lieu of a first dance) and they had everything set up perfectly. My bridal assistant always made sure I was well-fed and hydrated, and got to actually taste the fantastic food that all my guests kept raving about afterwards.

However, when the December date opened up we decided on a winter wedding – I am so glad that we did and highly recommend it!Our first point of contact was Sarah.

She took the time to answer all of our questions and was willing to work with us on all of our requests. When it was time to get down to the nitty-gritty for our reception, I could not be happier with how our event coordinator Tori handled everything - she was absolutely incredible! I must have asked Tori a zillion questions, but she always answered every single one and never missed anything. Her attention to detail and organization of all the information we gave her really gave us the confidence in knowing that our reception was going to be exactly the way we imagined and planned it to be, and it sure was. I actually had fun hammering out all the details with Tori (she was that great!). I never once felt like I was bothering Sarah or Tori with all my questions - their responses were always timely, friendly, helpful and detailed. And I never once felt worried or stressed - they made the entire process so easy and created such an enjoyable and personal experience for us. The night of our reception, our maître d' Debbie kept everything running smoothly and checked in with us every now and then to make sure we were happy. All of the food was excellent and well-presented, and the service provided was impeccable. Our guests raved about the food and stuffed themselves, and they never had to wait for a drink or anything else they needed. They were so impressed and so happy with everything they experienced at Le Chateau. Many of our guests have even said that our wedding was the best one they've ever been to! Whatever your vision is for your wedding day is - this hard-working, talented and caring team at this gorgeous venue can bring that vision to life without a doubt. Reviewed on 19-06-2019
Samantha Sayegh(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 26-05-2019 From the moment we stepped foot on the property, we knew Le Chateau would be difficult to top. The grounds were absolutely stunning, and unlike anything we had seen before. My husband and I initially met with Sarah, who was extremely patient and hospitable. That initial meeting led to the easiest decision we made throughout our entire wedding planning process: booking Le Chateau. The organization and professionalism displayed by their staff was unparalleled. Tori and Debbie blew us away with their personal interest and attention to detail. We knew that they truly cared about making our vision come to life. It was a pleasure to work with them, not only because they were so accommodating, but also because they were both fun and pleasant to be around.Our bridal attendants, Bri and Jill, always made sure I had a drink in my hand (water or otherwise) and food to eat. When we took pictures outside, they carried my train and even held an umbrella for us between shots. Not only were they extremely attentive, but they were also such lovely people to have around us on our big day. And when it came to the food, there was truly something delicious for everyone. We had a very large guest list and they’re all still raving about it.So many people told us that our wedding day could never be perfect because “something always goes wrong”. Well, none of those people must have had their wedding at Le Chateau, because everything went perfectly. Our day was absolutely flawless thanks to our careful planning with the staff.Le Chateau exceeded our already very high expectations and we cannot recommend them enough. If you are looking for a gorgeous venue with amazing food and an exceptional staff – look no further because you’ve found it at Le Chateau. Reviewed on 12-06-2019
Kayla Kaplan(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 01-06-2019 Our wedding our Le Chateau was truly a dream. From the start, Sarah provided the most caring, honest and helpful attention to us, ensuring each small detail would be taken care of leading up to the wedding and day of. She was so responsive and helped answer all of our 1,000 questions - truly a gold standard for how vendors should treat their clients. Once we saw the ballroom, the outside ceremony space, the bridal/groom suite, we had to say yes - it was just beautiful! Also, the food - THE FOOD! It’s not wedding food people, it’s legit restaurant quality food people want to keep eating and that they did! People are still telling me how good the Chilean Sea Bass was. Shoutout to Tori and Debbie who also helped with the planning, especially being our day-of-coordinators, ensuring we were fed, hydrated and we kept to the schedule. Le Chateau takes care of everything so you don’t have to worry about anything which is truly what we were looking for. With a beautiful rustic ceremony space and a grand ballroom with a dance floor that fits everyone, we couldn’t have asked for a more special place to get married. Reviewed on 07-06-2019

Not only was the venue beautiful (grand entrance filled with votive candles and lanterns, rustic cocktail hour room, picture perfect sunset, stunning ballroom with fairytale chandeliers, spacious bridal suite), but the staff was top notch too! They accommodate your every need and truly make the wedding of your dreams stress-free. Good food was extremely important to us and the Le Chateau Chef surpassed our expectations.

Michelle Sibley(bride)3 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 18-08-2019 I initially found Le Chateau through my wedding planner as he had a relationship with the Director of Sales there. When we initially saw the venue, it wasn’t open yet and the ballroom was a pile of rubble, so we put a ton of trust in them and wrote a check to a construction site. But we made it very clear with them from the beginning what our plans were for décor, and perhaps the most central to our plans were to hang a floral/branch installation. This was mandatory for me and my vision, and I would not have agreed to this venue without this guaranteed. The venue promised many, many times that rigging points would be installed to allow us to do this. Yet, just 2 WEEKS before my wedding, they told us they actually never installed them. I cannot explain how upsetting this was. Finding out this information by itself was awful, as this was an integral part of my wedding vision, but finding out 2 weeks before my wedding made it horrible. It was totally unacceptable, stressful and heartbreaking. In addition, completely unprofessional as they had legitimately LIED to us for the last year, telling us that the rigging points WERE installed every time we asked (which was many times). It was very much the last straw for me, as it happened after they went back on their word on a number of things they had promised us at the beginning. Most notable were our Ceremony Start Time (we wanted sunset, they forced us to do an hour prior), our Reception End Time (they told us we could go as late as we wanted, then last minute made us end earlier due to local ordinances that mysteriously popped up) and the Bridal Suite (they told us it was complimentary, then they tried to charge us hundreds of dollars last minute). In the end, it took a TON of stress and LOTS of negotiations from my attorney mother to find a middle ground on a few of these disagreements, and Le Chateau graciously threw in some complimentary late night food stations for us as a make-good. But this is not something as a bride you want to deal with weeks before your wedding. Regardless, my wedding was amazing, the servers were great (shout out to Tayla who was INCREDIBLE) and everything worked out well enough.... But working with this venue was the most stressful thing in the world. It added so much exhaustion to the wedding planning process. My advice to you is – yes you should book it because the food was extraordinary, the service was impeccable and your guests will love it. But for your sanity as a bride, GET EVERYTHING YOU WANT IN WRITING BEFORE YOU SIGN THE CONTRACT. Ask questions in the beginning for things that are important to you. Do not leave anything out or months later they will not honor those verbal promises they made. Reviewed on 06-03-2019

Jenna Dallacco(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 24-11-2018 My husband and I were lucky enough to hold our wedding at Le Chateau November of 2018, and they gave us the wedding of our dreams. As soon as we visited Le Chateau during our venue hunt, we knew in our hearts it was the one. The staff was clearly some of the best in their field, and the property itself is unique and breathtaking. Every other venue we visited paled in comparison.During our preparation for the big day, the staff of Le Chateau were unbelievably patient and helpful. They are THE wedding dream team. I probably emailed Tori H, every other day for 4 months - and she was and is a star! Always positive, quick to respond, and super efficient. She makes magic happen!Sarah S helped us to book our reception and was extremely knowledgable and basically our wedding fairy godmother. We felt so lucky and blessed to have her on our team. I cannot thank her enough for making our dreams come true. The ambience and magic of Le Chateau is something that must be experienced. It is impeccably maintained, and like no other location in Westchester, NJ, or CT that I have seen or been to. It is romantic, classic, graceful, and elegant all at once. All our guest were floored by it's grandeur and unique appeal. The food was outstanding, all the way from cocktail hour to dessert. Particular favorites were the New England and pasta stations at cocktail hour.Debbie C, our maitre 'd, ensured every detail was executed to perfection - and we had plenty! With the patience of a saint and expertise of a surgeon, she brought our vision to life and also gave our guests and ourselves an amazing party the day of! I can honestly say that my wedding was the best I've ever been to and I was able to have an incredible time - I ate, danced, spent time with my guests - all thanks to the professionalism and talents of the staff at Le Chateau. Special credit also should go to my bridal attendant, Kirsten, and Jon. No task was too small or too big for Kirsten - she never left my side and seemed to have everything I needed at a fingertips reach. Jon was in charge of many set up details and the grounds itself - both of which were flawless and he always had a smile for us in spite of all the work we gave him!Stunning and one of a kind setting, perfect staff, delicious food.

Diana Walsh(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 31-12-2018 My new husband and I got married at Le Chateau two weeks ago, on New Year's Eve. One of the reasons I'm sad that the wedding is over is because it means I don't get to work with the AMAZING staff at Le Chateau anymore. Every single person that works there is phenomenal. They truly go above and beyond to ensure your day is perfect. And they do not act like you are another couple that's on their schedule. You are treated with so much care and kindness; I could gush for days. And all the details, from the gorgeous venue itself (no matter the time of day or when during the year) to the food, it is all absolutely fantastic. Our guests could not stop complimenting it all, too. I could go on and on but the bottom line is: if you're an engaged couple, do yourself a favor and book Le Chateau immediately.

When she says to breathe, you breathe, when she squeezes your hand, you know you can make it down that aisle with your head held high, trembling lips be damned, and when, later on, she tells you to not sweat the small stuff and just enjoy what is undoubtedly the best night of your life, you do it. That's not just a \"venue\" in my book.So yes, while it's easy to describe the tangibles: the gorgeous table linens and chairs, the vistas visible from the West Lawn, the grandeur of the ballroom, the warmth of the cocktail space, etc etc, it's virtually impossible to describe THAT feeling.So, as my husband and I think back on our wedding, and look wistfully back at our photos at Le Chateau, I leave this with a huge thank you to Le Chateau as well as the STRONG recommendation to any couple looking to not only have a wedding, but an experience that will exceed every expectation you could ever think up, to plan your trip out to Katonah.

Victoria Gan(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 29-09-2018 PART 1:I'm not sure if five stars even comes close to doing justice to what is - hands down - the most incredible wedding venue in the game. Even \"venue\" falls short as Le Chateau is so much more than that - between the people, the experience, the tremendous care given from the very first handshake to your last tearful hug, the personalization, the grounds, and let's not forget the food...When my then fiance and I first walked in the Le Chateau, we were all at once in awe and petrified as they were in the thick of renovations. What is now the breathtaking Ballroom was a CAD drawing and images promising floor to ceiling windows, spectacular chandeliers and a dance floor large enough to carry our kind of crowd...what is now the Ceremony Garden was a weeded over area heavied up with lattice and stone holding the promise of just how sanguinely poetic this space could ultimately be...I could go on, but needless to say, between the incredible trust Sarah elicited from moment one, to the undeniable potential carried by this space - unique unto anything else we'd seen - we signed on a wing and a prayer. And outside of choosing my partner -- that was the BEST. DECISION.EVER.We cannot thank Sarah, Tori and Debbie enough for their continued support throughout the entire planning and execution process. From numerous conversations about every single detail one human could possible think of (previous planner over here), to 30-something long email chains about all things big and small, we always felt like the LC team was in our corner and no words can adequately describe how invaluable that was. As foodies, we had high hopes going in and tirelessly menu planned, enjoyed ourselves far too much at the tasting and weighed pros and cons of probably every single hot and cold passed app on offer. We worked and reworked our cocktail hour schema, playing with additions, changes, and probably a few odd asks here and there, but LC did not skip a beat. We had initially been worried that we wouldn't get a chance to try our entrees beforehand, well, when we had multiple guests come up to us raving about how incredible the steak was, or how it was the best fish they'd ever had, our fears were entirely mitigated. We were both able to bring our individual \"non negotiables' to life; from adding BBQ sauce and onion rings to a stationary table (my fiance was over the moon), to overhauling an Action station (it was a hit), to their doing everything in their power to address my unabashed love of cheese and tequila shooters (That would take an entirely new entry!)....I wish we could go back as guests to truly indulge in the magic that Le Chateau brought that night.
