I have worked as a DJ at The Lake House many times and it is a one of kind venue. Beautiful private lake with views from all the windows. Paul, the caterer, is a catering maven and loves to be creative and unique with the food and the service. There is an intimacy to the place that makes you quickly feel like family. The fact that there is only one wedding at a time in the building adds to the sense that The Lake House is your private fantasy world for the day.

Woodwinds

Branford, CT
  • Up to 600 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $110

WoodWinds is one of the most sought after Connecticut wedding venues for wedding receptions, banquets, corporate events or any special occasion, in the Tri-State area. A wedding in our impressive European Country Manor will reflect your personal vision. Imagine a magical experience, enhanced by a unique ceremony and reception on the beautiful grounds of WoodWinds. Envision standing on a grand staircase under the twinkle of Austrian Crystal chandeliers, taking pictures in a magnificent garden and dancing the night away on a marble dance floor.

The Woodwinds made everything I hoped and dreamed about for my wedding happen. They give you a planner to help you through the process and he was awesome. He answered all my many questions and even answered some I didn’t even know I had. He guided us through the process, and it was so helpful and easy. We joked about Dr. Pepper in our planning meeting and how it was my husband’s favorite drink and how that was the only downside of woodwinds. When we entered the room and sat down after our first dance there was a bottle of Dr. Pepper in a champagne bucket. These guys really care about their jobs!!!! When we left our bridal attendant was saying how they just opened up a restaurant in Old Saybrook, and although we only will get married once, we cannot wait to go back for the food!

We are thrilled with the quality of service and the level of expertise at The Riverview. We didn’t have a wedding planner so Kayla (our day of wedding coordinator) seriously went above and beyond to make everything run so smoothly. It’s wonderful that they include a day of coordinator in the package. If something went wrong I had no clue, she handled everything and I was able to have fun. They were also very accommodating to all requests I had for the ceremony, the meal options and cocktail hour. I was so so happy with how everything turned out. Our guests were raving about the food, the ambiance, and the professional waitstaff (and bartenders) all night long! There are a few popular venues to get married in CT but I would urge you to at least take a look at the Riverview, the view sells itself. I also want to shout out their pastry chef because the cake was insane. It was delicious and exactly like the picture I showed Kayla!

My name is Taryn. My wife Brittany & I were married at Swan Lake 9/22/23, & it may have just been the best day of our lives. Now that the wedding brain has subsided (lol) I can finally sit with a clear head, & truly express how thankful Brittany & I are for the amazing & perfect experience we had at Swan Lake. Apologies in advance for the novel, but it’s completely necessary! From moment one, the entire staff at Swan Lake was beyond kind & accommodating. We had our first consult with Sophia, & it took us all of a few days to know Swan Lake was our place. Sophia quickly became my right hand through the entire planning process. Every phone call, email & visit (because there were MANY) was easy AND fun! Every expectation was met, and every question answered promptly. Sophia helped me troubleshoot & sort out so many projects along the way. I don’t think I was a difficult bride, but to say that I was ambitious might be an understatement. When it came to Wedding Day, there was a tremendous amount to accomplish. My decorations were definitely a handful; lighting everywhere, draping cascading from the ceiling, a multitude of different centerpieces, three signature cocktails, multiple favor type items... It took a LOT to put together & to say I was nervous doesn’t come close. Every, Single. Thing— was pulled off BEAUTIFULLY. I was blown away by the amount of creativity, help & support Sophia & the staff brought that day. I am eternally grateful. As the party was set in motion I must have been told 100 times how great the food & drinks were. Charlie crafted the most beautiful endless ‘cocktail hour’ spread, (we did not do a sit down dinner service… best idea EVER) which ultimately just continued and morphed into delicious station after delicious station. We had an epic dessert assortment where everyone found something they loved! Charlie, thank you. Your attention to detail & love of food and feeding people is unmatched! Elena came in for the evening hours to relieve Sophia. Elena was INCREDIBLE. I cannot tell you, this woman is on top of it. She made sure that everything was completely seamless & that I was kept in the loop all night, but also able to enjoy myself. She made sure that the massive breakdown went as smoothly as possible and that our night ended beyond successfully. Elena, you are the BOMB. Last but certainly not least, Mary. Mary, my bridal attendant, was the kindest, sweetest, most attentive & helpful human I may have ever met. This girl must have asked me 100 times if I needed anything. I’m pretty sure she brought me a dozen drinks (as I couldn’t keep track of mine to save the world), she packed up a little bit of all of the food & sent us home with a great morning after smorgasbord! My lipstick & phone was always within reach & my dress was always right where it was supposed to be! Mary– I was thinking about you, so thankful, eating mashed sweet potatoes at 4am hahaha. Thank you forever. Swan Lake & all of your staff– administrators, servers, bartenders, chefs, helping hands & everyone in between… Thank you for making our Wedding Day everything we ever wanted it to be. Thank you for all of the support & all of the compliments because it wouldn’t have been possible without each & every one of you. I said it already, but I will be back! I wouldn’t hesitate holding another event here in the future & I will always think of ya’ll as family. Brittany & I are eternally thankful & we love you all! T&B

had my wedding at Essex Club on 12/1/23 and cannot stop wishing I was reliving my wedding day just as it was! Everything worked out perfectly and Essex Club played the biggest part in that. From the moment my now husband and I stepped into the venue about a year ago up until our wedding night, Jessica could not have been more helpful, honest, and easy to work with. She was always willing to answer my hundreds of questions and give me an honest opinion. My maitre d, Rob, was the absolute BEST! My husband and family agree. My bridal attendant, Anna, was right beside me any time my bustle was down or my drink was empty. My friends and family all echoed positive sentiment… the food was great, the decor was great, everything came together so beautifully. I can’t recommend the Essex Club and their staff enough. They made our wedding!

I had my wedding on 7/15/23 at Bourne Mansion and I don’t think I could say more glowing things about the entire experience. From the second we sat down the Miriam, we knew that this was the venue. She was beyond helpful and available for all of our questions big or small from the start. She had amazing suggestions and wonderful vendor choices. I don’t think our wedding would have been the same if we didn’t listen to almost everything she told us to do. Steve was also incredible from our meeting the week prior to the day of, he was right there for anything we needed and was like a drill sergeant making sure everything went on time which was much appreciated. There was a chance that there would have been rain which would have ruined our firework show and Steve made sure that the kitchen rushed the food out so we could get the show started before anything happened. All our guests have raved about the food and how there was enough to feed a small army. As anyone who gets married knows me and my husband weren’t able to indulge in everything but what we ate was AMAZING and I literally can’t stop thinking about the sushi. I could go on and on about how Miriam, Steve and the entire Bourne staff made our night incredible!! I highly recommend choosing Bourne for your wedding!
