Attended a friend's wedding here over the summer. It was magnificent. The backyard setting with the reflecting pond in front of the alter was stunning. The food was great and we had a wonderful time. Great venue!

Ceresville Mansion provided the BEST venue for our wedding, without any compromise! We wish we could get married again and again, just so we could party there. All of our guests were raving about the Mansion's staff, food and overall quality. Assuredly, you and your guests will not be disappointed. They're a popular venue, and for a good reason.

Great historic house and fantastic wedding venue. Lovely garden space and plenty of parking on site. There was a great variety of pokemon to catch and a pokestop. What a great location for your next wedding or pokemon raid party.

It's a small but beautiful venue with indoor and outdoor areas for celebrating whatever event you may be holding or attending.

Choosing to hold our wedding at Ceresville is the best decision we made for our wedding. The mansion is perfectly designed for a wedding - conference layout, experienced and friendly staff, delicious food. It has everything we wanted for our wedding. Our guests are impressed by how beautiful the wedding is and how helpful the staff is. The wedding day coordinator, Amanda, is amazing. She made everything was in place, so we can actually enjoy the wedding. Highly recommended.

This was a very beautyful venue for a wedding. My oldest grandson got married here! The staff did a great job of managing everything behind the scenes. They provided a great meal for a large wedding group.

With an open bar, the drink portions are rather generous. Also employees to open doors for you. Can't expect much more as a wedding guest. Easy to find and easy to get out of.

I cannot say enough good things about Ceresville. I worked with Jenni for the past year to plan my fairy tale wedding and she was extraordinary to work with. Like most Brides I wanted my wedding to be perfect. I would call Jenni on a very regular basis to get her opinions or to have her send me pictures of random things around the mansion. It was important to me that I paid attention to all of the little details and to ensure that everything would match and look picture perfect! Whether I wanted to see plates, tablecloths, napkins or cake stands, Jenni was more than happy to personally get a picture and send it my way. Having planned weddings for years, Jenni was a great resource for information and guidance! Jenni made me feel like I was the only bride planning a wedding that year! I felt valued, appreciated and like she genuinely cared about me. Hands down my wedding day was a success because of the hard work and dedication that Jenni offered to me throughout the year. On the day of my wedding, we worked with Robby and he was just as great. I showed up with my bridesmaids and he welcomed us with a glass of champagne and a warm hug hello! After settling in I realized I had forgotten to brush my teeth!! Eeek! No problem, Robby opens a drawer and hands me a packet of toothbrushes! I cannot count the times he rescued me that evening! From searching for my lost garter, to helping to set up the mansion with my countless knickknacks, to locating the lost petals for the flower girl baskets, he put out one flame after the other, with a smile on his face, ensuring my day went smooth and was everything that I had envisioned. He was my behind the scenes lifesaver! My husband says that if Robby ever leaves his career at Ceresville, we will be snagging him to work with us! He is one of the hardest working guys, who handle’s high pressure situations better than anyone we have ever met. Ceresville Mansion exceeded my wildest expectations. I truly enjoyed working with them and highly recommend them for any function that you may be planning!

Was here for a wedding. Nice quaint place with an outdoor venue for the wedding. Didn't get to take advantage of it due to rain. Staff was friendly and place was clean. Food and drinks were good.

RoseyValentine

The round ballroom and reflection pool on the patio really adds an extra sense of class to an already classy looking venue

Edward Baidoo

Great venue. Went to a wedding here. Kind of a hidden gem. Staff was very hospitable and friendly. No complaints.

When I was 16 I came to Ceresville for a wedding ceremony (did not stay for reception) and ever since then this venue always stuck out in my mind. I did not know the name of the venue I just remembered the beautiful pergola, reflecting pool, & atmosphere. Ever since then I wanted an outdoor wedding. When it was time to look for venues I searched and search then I asked my mom if she had remembered this particular venue. She remembered the location and looked it up and sure it enough it was the venue I had remembered. The next morning we called and set an appointment to check the venue. They were very helpful with everything. If you are military I would strongly suggest this venue. They have a great military rate. Since day one they have been so helpful. Jessica was amazing to work with, she always responded in a timely manner & made me feel comfortable asking her anything & everything! I strongly advise going to a tasting so that you can get an idea of the different & delicious food they offer. I needed a vegetarian option & they were more than happy to make the vegetarian option for the night of the tasting. The food is amazing so if you aren't able to make it to a tasting have no worries the food will be great. --The tasting night also gives one an idea of how an event will be set up. Ceresville is a very organized & helpful venue. They made wedding planning a breeze. Rehearsal could not have gone any better. It was very stress free thanks to Jennifer! Jennifer made the rehearsal & our wedding day as stress free as could be. It is nice they have an option for rain & they also let you have the choice to have it indoor or outdoor depending on the weather. It almost rained during our ceremony but we wanted to have it outside rain or shine! (there would be seats for people inside) I am beyond happy with how our wedding went & everything Ceresville in preparation for it. They made our wedding more beautiful & enjoyable than I could imagine.

Grounds are great. Inside layout flowed. Eating area neat clean spacious. Bathrooms were put into a mansion and not always convenient. As paint was peeling. Overall a great place. I'd go back in a heartbeat.able

Joseph Watkins

Had a work related luncheon. The food was great and staff was professional; however, some of the ventilation is right next to the seats. Some of us froze because they had AC running and it would blow the air directly into us.

We don't know why we had never been to Ceresville Mansion but we ended up discussing what we had been missing. There is such beauty and wonderment to be found here and we wanted the event we attended to last all weekend. Everyone and everything was so perfect, the food amazing, the whole staff attentive and warm, and we felt like old friends and not guests. If you haven't been here you should try, and what a wonderful location for any special event. Couldn't be more impressed. Hugs.

From the first day we visited Ceresville, till we were driving away on our wedding night, Ceresville has been a stunning location that will always have a special place in our hearts. The mansion has gorgeous historic charm that offers versatility of indoor and outdoor entertaining areas. On top of that, the Chef and his kitchen staff create the most amazing food. After our tasting we had a hard time deciding what to serve because everything was so good! Our guests raved about the beauty of Ceresville, the delicious food, and the great service from the entire staff. Robbie and Vikki were our day-of coordinators and they were a fabulous team to work with. Special thanks to Heather who made sure that we were taken care of throughout our event. Last but not least, Stephanie was undeniably amazing to work with. She was super friendly and very responsive throughout the planning process. She was always accessible to help with on-site planning and handled our changes and curve balls that came along with the wedding planning process. She prepared numerous estimates for us so we could keep an eye on the budget, and she gave us suggestions based on previous successes at Cersville. This was absolutely the best place to get married. I can’t wait too have an anniversary celebration there!

Went to a wedding here recently and the venue was very nice. The staff were friendly and professional, and the grounds were beautiful and well kept. The size doesn't lend itself to very large weddings but for the one I attended it was just right.

The staff were very professional. The food was nice. The bar tender was more than generous with the drinks. The only recommendation I would offer: maybe use air fresheners because it had a slight oder (probably from the building is old).

Very beautiful place to have a wedding. Great, easy to get to location. Nice layout and nice grounds for outdoor events.

Douglas Raferty

I attended a wedding here with my wife and daughters and everyone was impressed and even overwhelmed with the setting and service and food. Ceresville Mansion and her grounds are so beautiful that you should stop to visit even if there is no event. Others should know I think they would have a perfect score if it were not for a loser that we call the "Comus Inn Sociopath" who writes negative reviews because he can't compete. If you have a chance to visit Cereville Mansion, walk with those you love down to the path through gardens and to the lake.

Everyone here knows what they're doing and they have great attitudes. Kate makes every couple feel like they are her only client. The chef, banquet manager, bartenders etc all give the same graceful and kind service. Awesome venue!

Got married at The Beautiful Ceresville Mansion December last year. Coming from South-Africa where Ive have never experienced cold weather like I do here, i was a little concerned that I will not have my big day as beautiful as hoped. But I was pleased in every way. The staff were amazing. The food was great!! Totally recommend this place to anyone who wants a perfect venue. Love love

Great staff and location to be the Dad at daughters wedding. Very much did exceed my expectations. I would recommend this location for any type event. Wedding was especially special !_

Amanda Parks

This venue is by far one of the most professional and organized I have seen. Their staff is poised and efficient and I felt like a VIP on my wedding day. Kate, my coordinator was both kind-hearted and supportive. She offered many ideas to bring my wedding to the next level and made sure the staff at Ceresville was notified at every turn. The Day-Of coordinator Amanda was absolutely amazing in making sure I was taking a deep breath and enjoying every moment. Her bright smile and lovely disposition kept me calm during a bout with nerves. The Bridal attendant Laura was also another wonderful staffer who attended to both my husband and I diligently. We had a large bridal party, but she managed it with ease. The venue was a beautiful spot to have the wedding and I would choose it all over again if I could! I had not ONE guest who had even the slightest of complaints. The food was simply delicious with a wide range of options! The Chef even made an incredible meal for my Gluten-Free Vegetarian guest and she was raving about it. She also told me that she was not sick after her meal meaning the chef was very careful and didn't cross-contaminate which is very important. Everything at Ceresville is done with the finest detail, and each and every staff member is poised to make your special day the best it can be. My guests and I left the Mansion with many happy memories. I cannot thank Ceresville enough for making my day the perfect fairytale I was wishing it would be.

It's a cozy place for a small gathering. The outdoor area is a bit run down but you don't notice much at night.

This is the first thing I have ever reviewed and the only reason I did is because they are SO good. I had my wedding here a few months ago and I have to say, the service is amazing! the staff was friendly and extremely capable/knowledgable. From the moment I met them to driving away they showed themselves wonderful to work with and worth every penny. My coordinator had great suggestions as I planned out all the details and was willing to completely rework the package to work with my budget AND I got even better food than I expected. They had lots of pretty linens to choose from which cut down on the cost significantly. I do suggest going to a tasting. I'm not the kind of person to go and pay for extra things like that, but I went and it totally changed my menu options- some things I thought I would like and was planning on ordering I ended up switching out for something I would have never picked but liked much better. Not to mention it was lots of fun! Also the coordinator on the day-of/rehearsal was AMAZING. I've been in quite a few weddings and seen the rehearsals of even more and I've never seen anyone as good at what they do as he was! And on top of all that the venue is gorgeous, perfect for 100-150 people. Each room is unique and lovely and the outdoor setup was gorgeous as well. The whole place needed very little decorating (budget-friendly!) because it was so beautiful in and of itself. If you have the money, and it's your style- go for it!

I have a wonderful experience with Ceresville. My coordinator Stephanie responded to all inquiries immediately with more than enough information. Ceresville worked very hard to accommodate all of our needs, even the last minute requests. They did everything that they could to ensure that my day was as perfect and stress free as possible. While there were a few scheduling issues (length of time for set up during rehearsal night and wedding day) they were more than willing to extend our reception if it was affected in any way....which it wasn't. The food was AMAZING. The only thing that I would mention is that we were under the impression that there would be 2 bartenders to serve our guests. There was only one so that ended up causing longer waits for drinks than expected, but the tender that was provided was great and handled everything well and only a few guests mentioned the wait. All in all, I had an exceptional experience and would recommend it to anyone!

From start to finish, we could not have been more pleased. Kate was very responsive, the service the day of the wedding was impeccable, the food was delicious, the mansion was decorated for Christmas and created a very magical and elegant environment. Robbie, Taylor and Kate were all very kind and attentive. We loved having access to the upstairs where we were able to spend time with our closest family and friends prior to the ceremony. All our guests loved the venue - it's gorgeous at night. We had the ceremony inside and it was quickly transformed into the reception as guests ate appetizers in the parlors and bar. All details were handled. We did not have to worry or ask about anything during the wedding. I would highly recommend Ceresville. Thanks again Kate, Robbie, Taylor, Chef and staff for making our day truly the best day ever!!

I really loved this outdoor space which can be used for both your ceremony, cocktail hour and reception. They are very flexible with how the space can be used.

Gayle Chesler

I don't have a lot to say about an event here as mine hasn't happened yet, but the level of service given for the price charged is exceptional. My coordinator has been nothing but patient and I am definitely excited to be getting married in such a beautiful place!

We really could not have been happier with Ceresville for our 7/9 Sunday morning wedding. From the very first day we met with Ceresville staff, we were treated with respect and all of our questions, no matter how small, were answered. We are a lesbian couple and they were super-supportive of this—it never felt awkward or forced. The cost at first seems high, but compared to what you get in return it was incredibly reasonable. We had a small wedding, with about 60 guests, and instead of forcing us to pay for a minimum number of people, Ceresville gave us a minimum amount we had to hit—so we picked really nice main courses, added a sundae bar, etc, and that got us there. Another thing we liked was the “inclusiveness” of the cost. The price of Ceresville included things like tables, chairs, linens, cake stand, plates and silverware. Other places required you to bring or rent your own of these things—can you imagine having to wash 60+ dishes the night after your wedding?? Or carrying that home in your car? We couldn’t. The expense of these items adds up! On the day of, we never wanted for anything. Before we could express a need, someone from the staff was there offering assistance. All of our personal items were set up while we got ready, with no help needed from either of us. The ceremony was held on site, on the patio, and Ceresville coordinated with our DJ and officiant in an expert manor to make sure things went very smoothly. Our guests couldn’t stop complimenting the beauty of the venue, the taste of the food and the efficiency and kindness of the staff. At the end of the reception, my mother and sister-in-law were impressed because Ceresville had basically already packed up all of our things and the staff carried them to the car for them, so most of our immediate family was on the road only 20 minutes after us! It really couldn’t have been a more perfect day, and if we could give more than five stars to this fantastic venue, and it’s wonderful staff—especially Stephanie, our wedding planner, and Jessica, our day-of coordinator—we totally would. Thank you so much, Ceresville, for a wonderful day for us and our families.

We just had our wedding there July 30th, and I must say the staff was excellent they really are very good at what they do, they take care of everything, the venue is beautiful. My ceremony was to be on the Terrance but a huge storm came and I was so sad to have to move it indoors. But they made me feel better they did awesome job setting up everything it was so beautiful. I keep getting complaints on how beautiful my wedding was. They're so good at weddings it makes me want to do it again with my husband, we may have a 15 year anniversary bash there. You get what you pay for and then some. A big thanks to Stephanie Lindsay, Robbie, and Lindsay.

Now that the dust has settled, I feel compelled to write this review. My husband and I had our wedding event at Ceresville on July 11, 2015. From my first e-mail inquiry regarding the venue up until to our actual event I have been impressed. Stephanie was our wedding planner and I could not have asked for a better experience. Her professionalism was stellar and her personality matched. The venue is elegant, the weather was beautiful and we were able to have our ceremony outside on the pergola. The food was delicious and Chef Tom modified one of the dishes per our request. On the day of, we worked with Molly and Lori and they took care of EVERYTHING. I didn't have to think, just smile, look pretty and enjoy. Molly is awesome, she kept us on track in an obtrusive way. Our guests were well tended to and the interactions with the various vendors was seamless. The pricing is beyond fair and everything on the business end was handled very efficiently. Bottom line: I have no intention of getting married again, but would use the venue again and would recommend it without reservation. Thank you to Stephanie, Molly, Lori and all of the Ceresville staff for making our day nothing less than perfect.

What a beautiful place to have a wedding! Gorgeousness

My wife and I just got married there this fall, and our overall experience was excellent. They were consistently professional, adept, and friendly. During the planning process, our planner regularly checked in on us, making sure we were providing them with all necessary information beforehand, e.g. menu decisions, outside vendor choices, etc. They don't allow for outside catering or bar, but have a huge number of menu options to choose from, and even allowed for custom cocktails we crafted for the big day. They even directly corresponded with each of our outside vendors beforehand to make sure that they understood the timeline of the event and were familiar with the location. The day of, though, was amazing. The wedding coordinator and the bridal "stalker" both did a fantastic job making sure that we stuck to the timeline, that we had everything we needed/wanted at any given moment, and felt as comfortable and at-ease throughout the entire event. Even at the end, when we had to leave (we were an afternoon reception, so there was an evening reservation after us), they never made us feel even remotely rushed.

Cameron Bernhardt

My fiancé and I came here to discuss with Kate Moreland our wedding plans. My fiancé really liked this location and we were excited about visiting. After extensive email discussions to make sure this place would fit our needs we came to see it. When we arrived we sat down to talk with Kate and were immediately told I don’t believe that we are a good fit for your wedding. I’m sorry, excuse me? We’ve come here because we want to have our wedding here and you won’t even entertain the thought of us having it here? I tried to kinda ignore that statement since my fiancé wanted to use them, but it was made impossible because after everything Kate would say she would just point out that this wasn’t the venue for us. We were even willing to compromise on things so that we could meet their needs to have the wedding at the location! I don’t know of many people who’d be willing to compromise on their wedding just to have it somewhere. I’ve never been to a place where the staff is forcing you out by telling you that it won’t work, especially when they’ve already told you it would through email! It’s not like we’ve blindly walked in here without asking questions to see if this would be a good fit. Kate had already told us everything would be great and they’d be able to accommodate all our needs. I don’t understand what changed in four days so badly that you wouldn’t listen to us when we drove all the way here and FORCED US OUT?!?! We are beyond upset and very confused with this experience. We will be having our wedding at another location, God knows there’s tons of other more accommodating places. I can’t wait to have a beautiful wedding and I strongly encourage others to look elsewhere to have theirs.
