Wedding at OLTC

Our wedding at OLTC was the best day ever! Stefanie and her team were so helpful and there for us whenever we needed them! They went above and beyond for us on our special day. Throughout the wedding planning process Stef was so flexible and made being a Corona Bride easy! We received wonderful feedback from family and friends on how lovely their experience was. I would definitely recommend OLTC to anyone planning a wedding!

Krug Catering at Orange Lawn Tennis Club hosted my wedding on 7/1/17 and it was nothing short of spectacular. Mimi and Mary were amazing to work with and made sure everything we wanted was executed to perfection. We had planned to have our ceremony outside, but due to the impending rain we had to bring it inside. Mary and Mimi made sure to make it look absolutely beautiful, and with the large windows in the ballroom it was as if we were outside anyway. The food was BEYOND INCREDIBLE- our guests are still raving about the food pairings and how delicious everything was. Chef Krug is truly a genius! Our bartender, Nick made us an awesome signature cocktail that was a huge hit as well. Our maître d', Khizer and my bridal attendant, Marjorie were amazing as well and could not have been more attentive and helpful! Together this extraordinary team truly made it the best day of our lives.

My husband and I had the most amazing wedding day thanks to Chef Krug, Mimi and Mary! The entire experience was wonderful from start to finish. This venue is very elegant but also has a very personal feel. I would split our experience into three categories: 1) logistics, 2) food and 3) wedding reception.

1) Mimi and Mary were so organized and such a pleasure to work with for the wedding day logistics. Both are so kind, personable, and were very understanding even when we had last minute changes the week leading up to the wedding. They are truly a great pair to work with!

2) Chef Krug did a fantastic job with the food! This is not your run of the mill wedding food- this is gourmet, seasonal and delicious. He was very helpful and spoke with us during the tasting as we decided exactly food options we would choose. People were raving about the high quality of all the food served. We couldn't have been happier with this!!

3) On the day of the wedding everything ran seamlessly. We had over 200 guests and all went off without a hitch. The staff was very professional and attentive. Orange Lawn is the most beautiful venue and I wouldn't have changed a single thing about our wedding day!!
