Alex and English Hills Country Club were amazing to work with. We switched venues only two months before our wedding due to COVID restrictions and they were so helpful in making that process much less stressful. 4 days before our wedding we had to make the call to move the reception indoors due to storms and again, English Hills and Alex were so incredibly helpful in making that happen on such short notice. It was a seamless transition not to mention we received so many compliments from our guests on the food. We absolutely loved working with English Hills and with Alex and would 10/10 recommend booking your reception at English Hills. You won’t be disappointed!

BEYOND pleased with this venue we were in the PGA room at the country club. From the very beginning we felt comfortable and Kim made us feel so special and genuine during the beginning stages of planning. Throughout the year while we were planning every email was answered the day I sent it. They were very informative and helped guide us to the very end.The day before we went in and spoke to Paul who was going to help manage the night was so kind and quick to help us adjust and move things around that better suited our vision. HE was INCREDIBLE the night of and the staff was so fun and kind the night of the wedding.The food was amazing, all of our guest kept telling us how good it was. We had one bartender and she kept up with ALL of our guest. It was pretty impressive! This place was affordable and I will 110% recommend English Hills to anyone that is planning a wedding. Thank you guys again for such awesome work.

I had booked this venue for my ceremoney and reception venue for my upcoming June wedding in 2020. My fiance and I looked and booked this site in Feburary 2019. We had some concerns that we brought up to the venues attention. The concerns were the driveway was full of potholes, parking lot was not striped and part of the parking lot looks like a field. We were told this stuff will be taken care of before this wedding season (2019). The walls needed a fresh coat of paint, trim was falling off the walls and one other problem was that we were not aloud to try the prime rib. I was told \"no, we dont do that\". Well it is now the end of summer the prime time for weddings and construction. I dropped by and still not a single thing has been taken care of. I then went in and talked with Kim (the owner) earlier this week and she was very dismissive and became very upset with what we had to say. She kept cutting me off every time I went to talk. I told her I was still concerned this stuff would not be taken care of by my wedding date. She told me what I kept hearing and that it will be done. However it has yet to be done. I was treated very poorly throughout the entire experience unless I was adding to my bill.

We had our wedding reception at the Country Club in the British Open room. It was gorgeous and all of our guests loved it! We stayed pretty basic and just added the wall of lights behind the head table for decorations, besides what we did ourselves. Everyone loved the setup and they are still raving about the food! We did a strolling dinner with three stations, the Asian food, especially, is to die for! I definitely recommend using this venue for your celebration! They have a lot of options for set up, decorations and a ton of food options! They also work with/recommend several other vendors which was very helpful in finding our DJ. We worked mostly with Kim but their entire staff is very helpful, friendly and professional. We could not be more pleased and are so happy we decided on English Hills!

Kim was very sweet and kept in constant communication with us regarding all the planning and was very genuine since the beginning.

The room and gardens on site are all just absolutely beautiful. I would have our big day there over and over again! It was amazing, and I couldn't have asked for more. David walked me through everything and dealt with my obnoxious amount of questions with ease. Shelly was our coordinator for the day and she was a joy to work with. She meshed so well with everyone at the wedding and she is just great at her job all around. I would recommend to definitely check this place out when looking for your venue!

We couldn't have imagined picking a better venue. The staff made it so easy to plan the ceremony and reception from 3 hours away. They never pressured us into anything and they are very up front about fees and how the day will go. The staff the day of the wedding was amazing. It rained a bit that day, but they still managed to get our outdoor ceremony space set up and the reception was perfect. The staff genuinely cared about our day and made sure everything was the way we pictured. If you are looking for a fun staff to work with, a great reception space, and beautiful ceremony space English Hills Terrace is the way to go!

They even fixed an obstruction on the building the day of the wedding.-Priced well for size and optionsCons:-David the event coordinator (why? attitude and communication skills. He will out diva any bride I guarantee it)-If you are a craft beer drinker good luck. They only have a small selection of craft beers that they offer and you have to purchase from their list.Overall, if you can get through the setup and coordination process at English Hills you'll be in good shape.

Out of all vendors in my wedding, English Hills was the best out of all them. They don't charge a price on renting the room, they only charge for the food and decorations if you want them! The food is awesome as well. Huge hit at our wedding was the chocolate fountain that we added per person with the buffet style. English hills has everything available for your reception as well to rent from them. We used their projector for our photos, speakers and microphone for announcements and music, also lights for decoration. The best part of English Hills, is they have 2 open houses in the spring and fall for you if you have a wedding with them. At the open house you can taste all the foods and hey bring in vendors from every category for your wedding. I couldn't be more pleased with this company. The night of the wedding, they had all the food ready and served on time, they had enough staff, also everything with the lights were ready to go. They are also on an beautiful golf course for pictures and guests to walk outside. This place is where you want to go for the price and the service. Thank you English Hills!

Absolutely wonderful place. The room was beautiful, the food was fantastic and the staff were great! We did the All Our Favorites option and it included appetizers, a FULL bar including wine, dinner, coffee bar, raspberry lemonade punch bowl, and 5 huge pizza's that were brought out about 9:30 pm- not a single piece was left. We were in the Continental Room which was perfect. There is the lower level where the bar is located with plenty of space for mingling and chatting with people. We had an 8 foot table, that English Hills provided,that we set up with a candy buffet in this area with the wedding cake in the middle of the table as the main focus and it was a huge hit! The staff were very attentive- we were thinking they had \"eyes\" in the ceiling because if something was needed they were there before we even had to ask. Thank you English Hills...my daughter and son in law loved everything.

The staff were very attentive- we were thinking they had \"eyes\" in the ceiling because if something was needed they were there before we even had to ask. Thank you English Hills...my daughter and son in law loved everything.

My husband and I had our wedding reception in the \"British Open\" room. We chose the \"All Our Favorites\" package and enjoyed every part of it. The food was delicious! What really made the night amazing was the staff. Linda helped with making our night special and the staff had everything set up before the reception. I didn't have to lift a finger. They made sure everything ran as smoothly as possible and it made the night perfect. I couldn't say enough great things about English Hills. I recommend them to everyone!

I got married at English Hills July 21, 2012 and everything went perfect!!! Linda, the Event/Sales Coordinator was so helpful and one of the nicest people you could ever be around. My husband said he wanted to book at English Hills mainly because he liked house honest Linda was about what English offered and how there weren't any hidden cost. Linda also does centerpieces for less than $20 a table. My wedding colors were Yellow and Gray and of COURSE it was hard to find anything in yellow. I went to Linda to see if she had anything and she didn't but she said she would look around for me. I told her since she would have to buy it all I would pay more if she would help me. In the end she had to buy and custom make all of my centerpieces and she said she wouldn't charge me extra!!! I paid regular price for brand new centerpieces!!! We had our ceremony and reception in the same room which worked out perfect. We took pictures in the Terrace Garden which has a beautiful flowers and gorgeous gazebo which made my photos turn out beautiful! Now lets get to the FOOD!!! I wasn't one of those brides that didn't eat at they're reception...I made sure I ate it all because the food was amazing! Every time I saw a server or the chef they were always smiling and very polite! I even had some of my guest tell me how nice and helpful the servers were to them. Overall my experience with English Hills couldn't have turned out any better. If i could get married there again right now I would!

It's more than just a business to them - they actually love what they do. Unfortunately, I was hospitalized for our original wedding date and Linda at English Hills was AMAZING! She worked with me to reschedule my wedding just 3 weeks later AND it didn't cost me anything extra! In fact, everyone at English Hills set up the reception hall for me because I couldn't - and it was PERFECT! They honestly treated me as if I were a member of their family and I can't say enough how great they are! \r\rWe booked the ballroom and it was gorgeous! The chandelier in there is absolutely stunning and made for some great pictures on the dance floor. The service was wonderful! \r\rHands down - the best reception venue!

I used the British Open room for my wedding. I loved the layout of the room and Linda decorated it wonderfully. I did not want the light wall behind my head table but they put it up anyways. They said it was easier for them to do it on Thursday for the whole weekend then to put it up on Saturday morning (after my Friday reception). I was disappointed in this because I really did not want it. I was told I could get it taken back down but that it would \"be a big inconvenience\". They were not very organized when it came to all the beforehand stuff, but looking back, nothing went wrong so I cannot complain too much! The food was wonderful, the servers were awesome, it was a beautiful site!
