I couldnât recommend Woodhaven more, the photos online do not do this place justice. The inside of the country club is stunning and the grounds absolutely gorgeous. Early on in the wedding planning process I was super overwhelmed and my husband and I were considering doing an immediate family only wedding so we almost canceled touring this place, but Iâm truly glad we didnât. I spent an hour and 10 minutes talking to Shelby and Carrie the event coordinators and when I walked out, I looked my husband in the eyes and said, âI can do this⌠I can plan my wedding with Woodhaven!â One of the reasons being is that they had so many add-ons that took away lots of the stress of wedding planning. Throughout the entire process, the venue was super prompt answering the millions of questions I had, and supportive every step of the way. On top of the ladies being awesome, the bar and food here is unreal!! Literally the best bar packages Iâve seen from any venue and we got so many compliments on the food. I cannot sing Woodhavenâs praises any louder! Check them out because you wonât regret it!! Reviewed on 03-01-2024

It is a great venue for a wedding and reception. Shelby (venue coordinator) stayed in consistent communication and was very helpful/accommodating. We bought the wedding package which included a lot of what we needed. There are many fees for additional items/changes so ask questions and be informed of your contract. Also due to be being a country club there are limitatioms if you aren't a member. Overall it was a great experience! Reviewed on 22-11-2023

I donât want to deter anyone from using Woodhaven, but just know you may have to stay on top of your âevent/wedding plannerâ if you want things done. The venue is no doubt beautiful, but the honest reason we picked Woodhaven is because my aunt is a member & they offer discounts to family. Weddings are extremely expensive & when you can catch a deal, itâs worth it. We did not end up getting as much of a deal in the long run. I donât think it was made very clear at the beginning how the discount was applied but as a first time bride, I guess I just didnât clarify or ask the right questions. I donât know. Day of the wedding, I was very disappointed. It ended up working out of course. But my âwedding plannerâ was M.I.A. at the start of my wedding because she had âan emergencyâ with the other event she was working that night. My wedding started at 6pm, naturally guest start arriving between 5:30-5:45. The signs that were supposed to be out by the seating area were not put out- this is something my âwedding plannerâ said sheâd take care of hours ago. Not a single staff person from Woodhaven was present to direct my wedding guest to the outside seating area. The guests were coming into the building, where my wedding party was waiting for direction from my âwedding plannerâ on what to do. MY HUSBAND & PHOTOGRAPHER WERE DIRECTING OUR GUESTS WHERE TO GO SIT OUTSIDE. Iâm not sure why it had to fall on me to text the âwedding plannerâ to come do her job. I say that because, what bride honestly has any idea where their phone even is 15 mins before the wedding is supposed to start?! Luckily my vows were on my phone, so I knew exactly where mine was. But it still blows my mind that it fell on me to communicate with the âwedding plannerâ that people were showing up & theyâre gathering inside. Thatâs no shade to my family either. Thatâs 100% shade to Woodhaven!I handled the situation with the discount calmly. The âwedding plannerâ called me a few days after the ordeal with the discount, to ask how I wanted to handle food while we were getting ready. BTW, you canât bring in outside food and bev- this wasnât made clear to me either until 2 weeks before the wedding. During that phone call she brought up the situation about the ordeal with the discount. Firstly, she has no idea how to handle conflict or problem solve. Secondly (and this goes with #1), she has no customer service etiquette. She continued to defend her actions and cover her butt, even though sheâs the one that brought it up. I didnât say anything about it. I actually told her I didnât want to talk about it anymore.Woodhaven, even with the âdiscountâ, is still very expensive. Like I said, the venue is beautiful & the food is good. With that being said. I spent a lot of money to not have my âwedding plannersâ full & undivided attention the night of my wedding. Iâm not asking her to hold my hand. But I am asking her to SHOW UP WHEN MY WEDDING IS STARTING AND DO HER JOB! Not only was she behind, but she was defending her actions, not apologizing for her mistakes. Again- lack of conflict resolution & customer service skills. Itâs my wedding day & you werenât there & didnât do what you were supposed to do. Itâs been a month since my wedding, & I still havenât gotten an apology for that. I donât expect to. BTW, this other event was a birthday party. So I guess that was more important than the very expensive wedding that was going on.& their DJ- ehh. The party did not live up to the hype!

Dustin Gleitz(groom)1 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 27-07-2019 The venue is very nice I will give them that. We had our wedding there. Do not leave anything up to them. When it came down to our special day they where 1 1/2hours late with the breakfast for the bride and the wedding party. Do not and I mean do not use there up lighting the lights flickers on and off all threw out ceremony and reception. Making wedding videos bad because the lights kept changing. They said there was no problem, I didn't pay for stone lights. Then there was the cake they broke the wedding topper then destroyed the top cake that we where keeping for our anniversary. They shoved it in a box that was to small smashing the cake to the box all around it even the top. So do not let them take care of this. All these items are add on fees. That I wish I could get back. Also our guest had a hard time finding parking because they had a club pool party and luau on the same night as our wedding. âšď¸ Reviewed on 26-12-2019

Kayla Dennis(bride)2 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 06-04-2019 We were very excited about having my mother in laws wedding at Woodhaven. Itâs a very nice country club and all of the reviews we read were great. Unfortunately, Woodhaven did not live up to our expectations. It began the morning of the wedding when we were told we could come at 8:30 to set up. When we arrived, Woodhaven had not done their part of the set up resulting in us having to leave our things at the venue & having to come back later, cutting our time short with the photographer. We ran into our next problem upon the start of the ceremony. The DJ went to qeue our processional songs when we noticed there was still music playing overhead. For some odd reason it seemed to be a difficult task for the employees at Woodhaven to fix this, resulting in a delay to the start of the ceremony. The third problem came once the ceremony started. We had our heads bowed in prayer when overhead we heard the Cincinnati Reds game coming through the speakers. Again, a difficult task for the Woodhaven employees to fix. And finally, our last problem was a technical difficulty with the microphone during the reception for which we tried to seek help from the event coordinator. Unfortunately, the event coordinator was nowhere to be found leaving our DJ without a microphone for almost the entirety of the reception. These are just some of the major problems we encountered with Woodhaven on my mother in laws wedding day. Again, the venue is beautiful and the food and drinks were great. It is very unfortunate that we canât say that about the other services Woodhaven provided us with. I would highly recommend a professional wedding coordinator if getting married here.
