Such a beautiful wedding venue!

I picked the Donnelly House for my delayed wedding reception, and I can not say enough great things about this venue! Karl was great from the first time we met. He was patient and responsive as we went through the date changing process. And he was always available when I wanted to come back and walk around the venue with different vendors and parents. On the day of the reception, there were loads of things that I didn't think about. The Donnelley House thought of all those things and took care of them so that I could have a stress free day. After the day was over, I could not think of one thing that could have gone better, thanks to the Donnelly House! Thank you for making our day so perfect!

Thank you to Carl and his staff for making our wedding day the best day of our life’s! Everything about the historic venue made our day so special. Highly recommend the Donnelly House! To the this day our guest still say it was the best wedding ever! Couldn’t have had our wedding at any other venue.

I cannot say enough good things about the Donnelly House.
Not only is it a beautiful place to get married, Carl was so easy to work with and the food was AMAZING.
He really helped us think through everything large and small.
Carl made sure to suggest we take 30 minutes in-between the ceremony and reception to eat. They provided a secluded spot and plates for each of us. I am so thankful we got to taste everything and get some much needed food in our bodies.
We made a last minute change to the dance floor set up less than an hour before the ceremony and the donnelly house handled it seamlessly.
Thank you Donnelly House Staff for the most amazing wedding!
