Beautiful venue - book immediately

Butler's Courtyard we want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for creating the most beautiful day of our lives! Our wedding was more than we could have imagined and that is thanks to not only the professionals from Butler's Courtyard (Amber, Shawna, and the entire team), but the EXTRODINARY Friendors (Vendors) that we worked with as well.

The entire experience was flawless and handled with a white glove approach. Our Guests are still commenting on how beautiful and elegant the venue is. Butler's Courtyard truly is an all-inclusive, with added upgrading options if you choose. Shawna and her team did an amazing job with the flow of our event and providing us and our Guests with an experience to remember for a lifetime!

In addition, the two locations onsite to get ready and host your wedding party in was phenomenal! Other places do not have the large spaces that Butler’s provides – An entire cottage for the ladies and an entire Groom Cave for the guys, that they were so appreciative of. They had a chance to relax, stretch out, bond and shower if needed. We do see future bookings with this venue for anniversary and other special event parties. That is how great our experience was!

BOOK THEM IMMEDIATELY, without hesitation! Truly a fairytale experience and we were honored to have Teams that worked so in sync with each other. Butler’s Courtyard knows how to meticulously assist in creating the wedding of your dreams!

One year later

Butler's Courtyard provided an exceptional experience for our one-year wedding anniversary celebration. The venue, with its charming ambiance, served as the perfect backdrop for our special occasion. The staff went above and beyond, displaying genuine kindness by allowing us to revisit and celebrate our love in the same space where we exchanged vows a year ago. Their hospitality added a touch of warmth to the celebration, making it a memorable and meaningful experience. We are grateful for their generosity and the beautiful setting that contributed to a truly enchanting anniversary celebration.

Perfect Wedding for my Daughter

There are no words that could express the gratitude of thanks that I have for everything Butler's Courtyard did for my daughter’s wedding. We came here with no plans and no ideas and with less than 3 months to plan a wedding with my daughter working out of town the whole time. I love that they were able point to me in a direction from the big things like where to go order flowers from the little things as to where to buy the floating candles. There is No way I would have been able to put together the wedding of her dreams in the amount of time she gave me and without completely going crazy. I was a nervous wreck the whole 3 months trying to make sure that what her vision was for her wedding is what I was able to express to everyone. They understood her vision and what she was asking for the whole time, even when I would go WHAT you would just roll with it!! My husband and I feel that every penny we spent on the wedding was completely worth it and looking back we wouldn’t have changed a thing. I was able to spend the whole day and evening focus on my daughter and was able to watch her smile and be full of joy and love the entire day. I would highly recommend this place for your wedding especially if your looking for a stress free wedding.

I have always told my clients there are two things that make brides and grooms fall in love with Butler's Courtyard. First, is the place, old world charm and historic elegance. The grounds are always beautiful, and once the groom takes a look at his house (The Shop) he's sold! Second is the staff. From the owners Nancy and Janice to the coordinators and wait staff you know that you and your wedding plans are in good hands. Before you book your wedding stop by Butler's Courtyard and take a look. You'll be glad you did!
