Our collection of beautiful ceremony and reception venues range from country clubs and gardens to historical mansions and rustic equestrian barns. Each event location can be personalized to create the perfect wedding and event experience – and we make sure each couple gets the wedding they want by giving them a dedicated wedding planning team to support all their needs. We LOVE what we do, and it shows: thousands of couples choose Wedgewood Weddings each year on their journey from proposal to married life! For us, every wedding is an adventure. Couples can choose an exclusive package or ‘Build Their Own’ – this customization makes every wedding beautiful and unique. We’re happy to say our team at each venue often become friends with their clients. After all, we can throw a spectacular wedding in as little as three days, but usually, couples like to plan their event months or years in advance. As we progress from initial planning to final details to the big day, we get to know each couple so we can precisely tailor each element to their needs. We dedicate our time and experience to making our clients entire wedding experience equal to the joy they feel as they say, ‘I do.’ *** Part of ZGolf Food & Beverage Services, Wedgewood Weddings is proud to help venue operators at all stages of their business. We provide support to venue managers and owners who need expert advice to unlock additional revenue, owner-operators who want to step back from day-to-day tasks, and companies that find themselves overleveraged.
