All-Inclusive Weddings

Our All-Inclusive package brings planning, trusted vendors, and wedding-day execution together in one streamlined experience.

With fewer professionals to source and fewer details to coordinate, you can move through the planning process with greater clarity and confidence.

Love Notes from CR Couples

“We are so happy we had our wedding at Chestnut Ridge. The venue is absolutely beautiful and the staff did an amazing job setting up for our wedding day bringing our vision to life- they have a great staff that makes this happen and it is well worth every penny. We wanted a venue that was in the mountains with a special ceremony spot that could be closed off in the event of rain. We highly recommend this venue and their full team!!”

– Caitlin, The Knot

Designed for the Full Day

Chestnut Ridge was created around the natural flow of a wedding. Private suites, the mountain-view chapel, cocktail spaces, and reception areas are all connected, allowing guests to move comfortably throughout the celebration.

Crafted for Peace of Mind

Full-day access gives you time to settle in without feeling rushed. Weather-ready spaces remove the need for backup tents, while an experienced team keeps the plan organized so you can stay present.

Kind Words

It is our absolute honor to bring our clients’ dream day to life with passion and professionalism. And nothing makes us happier than hearing we’ve exceeded expectations.

We would recommend them to anyone. We’d dreamed of our daughter’s wedding for years and it couldn’t have gone better.

The only thing I’m sad about is that we won’t get to talk with the CR team anymore; they all became such an important part of our lives.

The Perfect Venue for Our Dream Wedding! When we saw  CR online, we knew this was the venue for us, and after touring, we had no doubt!
