Chateaux At Fox Meadows

I just had my wedding here and I have zero complaints! Their venue does package deals and they fit mine to my budget. They take care of all the payments to the vendors and even have a preferred list that I chose my vendors from. They never steered me wrong in their opinions and it was amazing that never once did they hounded me for money, which was amazing because I was an out of state bride planning with 4 families! They never once added any stress to me and Marissa the day of ran around and helped me with anything and everything I needed! They were so accommodating and they really go above and beyond to make your wedding special.
My wedding was beautiful and they even give you a planner to run your day so everything goes smoothly. They truly are an amazing venue and I highly recommend them! No stress, no hidden fees amazing crew!!!

I have to say, that I am quite shocked at all of the negative reviews about the Chateaux. I recently had my wedding there and can’t even tell you how pleased I am with the venue and staff!
My fiancé and I immedately fell in love with the Chateaux on our first visit. We made an appoinment with Marissa to see the venue and she was more than helpful in answering our MANY questions and provided detailed information about the different packages and pricing. The décor, staircase, reception area and outside gazebo were amazing and exactly how I pictured my wedding looking. They also had nice sized (and nice looking) dressing rooms for the bride and groom which I thought lacked at other venues we had looked at.
The best part is that they try to meet the needs of all budgets. I believe they have a basic package where you can bring in your own vendors and 2 all inclusive packages that include preferred vendors for catering, cake, photography, DJ, and floral. The inclusive packages also include all glassware, dishware, linens, etc. This was extrememly helpful in my planning because I didn’t have to stress about what vendors to use, I just had a list to choose from. Another helpful thing was that the Chateux staff deals with all of the contracts and organization between the vendors you choose. All we had to do was pick who we wanted and they would take it from there. The Chateaux made this aspect of my planning completely stress free! They also let you bring in your own alcohol which was a GREAT money saver for us!
We did add several things that weren’t included in our package like uplighting (which I highly recommend), the white drapes, photobooth, etc. It added a lot but wasn’t necessary because the venue itself is stunning! We had our wedding ceremony in the back gazebo, which was so beautiful and perfect. I believe this a place that can give you your fairy tale wedding. I definiately had mine!
I can’t rave more about the helpful staff and service we had during our wedding. All of our guests had so many great things to say about our wedding, all because of how nice the venue was and the service the staff provided. Someone asked my husband if we got married in a church in Dubai after looking at our pictures. Maybe it’s not THAT fancy, but definiately a beautiful, BEAUTIFUL place!

I just got married at the Chateaux at Fox Meadows in June. We booked this venue because of the gorgeous place. However, that is all they have to offer. The main reason I picked them is the big drape they have at the reception area. On the day of my wedding, I walked in the place and the coordinator tells me that the drapes are broken and there’s nothing they can do. They didn’t seem sincere to apologize or try to make it better. They have different people for various part of the process (sales, scheduling, appointment, walk through, and rehearsal). I had to talk to at least 5 different people about same things over and over (they are not very good at communicating with one another either). In the process, I got blew off with one of my appointment. Lastly, they are not best at offering or willing to work with you on your budget. We paid about 10 grand just for the venue (which was alot!) They sounded like they were giving us good deals to give us the décor package and the basement to use for our cocktail hour. However, the décor package failed on the day and the basement was in an unusable condition (no table set up, cocktail tables with no table cloth at all, etc.) My wedding turned out very well, our family and friends had a great time, the cater, staffing, florist, photographer, and videographer all turned out great except for the CHATEAUX AT FOX MEADOWS venue. The staffing company helped out more than the wedding coordinator on site.

This place was very pretty. It was in wonderful shape, with lots of lovely areas for cute photos and plenty of room for guests to wander around. The staff was knowledgeable about the package options, and were genuinely interested in what we had in mind.
Down-​side: Really out of our budget, even if we didn’t add on any of their extra decorations. The dressing rooms had walls that didn’t reach the ceiling, so anyone could hear our conversations while we dressed.

I have DJ’d a lot of weddings and I have to say, I was really impressed with this venue. The newlywed couple chose a simpler package that was cost-​effective for their budget. Even with that as a factor, it was beautifully set up. They did the ceremony inside (they have an outdoor set up as well). The room was very spacious and had a grand staircase to enhance the entrances. After the ceremony, guests were able to go downstairs for cocktails.
While the guests were downstairs, the staff transformed the room from ceremony to dining and dancing. They were quick and ready to get the reception going. The acoustics in the room weren’t challenging at all (which is a huge bonus from the DJ’s perspective).
Just a great and elegant location to host a wedding and reception! Also, it looks like it’s brand new, built within the last year or so. They do a great job keeping the place look that way.

I can’t believe there aren’t any reviews on here– this is a beautiful wedding venue. I did a package deal with them and it was overall very nice and affordable. The pictures are beautiful, the parking lot is ample, it is easy to find and easily accessible. There is an elevator that goes to the bride’s and groom’s rooms, along with a wide staircase. The bride’s room has a very large bathroom, which you do not realize the significance of until you are trying to go to the bathroom in a 20 pound dress and can’t pee or walk up stairs. They have really accommodating policies regarding alcohol, with no corking fee and several packages of mixers and glassware. However, I do have some complaints:
They have a security guard, with a gun, in uniform that stands in the reception area very conspicuously.
Although I loved the crystals and netting hung from the ceiling, they kind of force you into it because they area a pain to take down. Just charge everyone an extra $ 10 and keep it up all the time.
The venue has a really medicinal smell, like cleaning products, that just never goes away. I also wish they had some sort of option to deal with the blinding sun that goes straight into the eyes of their guests in evening weddings.
Most importantly, the staff here is incredibly over-​zealous in cleaning and yet incredibly poor at details. Some of this had to do with the catering staff, but the wedding coordinator didn’t even bother to check on the details. They messed up our seating chart so badly I can’t figure out what they did even to this day. They managed to put my mother-​in-​law and father-​in-​law, who do not get along, right next to each other. We had planned for them to be as far away as humanly possible. It was awkward and made us look insensitive.
We also had custom-​made buttons that were specific to our guests. We had one button that said «bride» and one that said «groom», which they threw away 2 hours before our event time was over, and an hour before our guests left. I actually never got to finish my dinner, a glass of wine, or even have a bite of our wedding cake because the staff repeatedly threw my plates and cups away. The staffers on the floor are all under 18 so they just don’t have the eyes to pay attention to details, and none of them are married so they don’t realize how neurotic brides are.
I also really didn’t appreciate that the following two years, the prices dropped. We bought the 2009 package in 2008, and when the 2009 package came out and was less expensive, they refused to change our contract. Not only was it cheaper, it was also more inclusive. This venue is beautiful but I would never rest easy dealing with them again.
