Renovated Club House with Amazing Service

We had a tremendous experience with Shackamaxon! Kathy and Cesar were extremely helpful and accommodating throughout the entire process. We were a little nervous when the original event coordinator had departed but Kathy and Cesar were amazing and we think that this worked out for the best.

Kathy and Cesar made sure that we were on top of all the details and were amazing with helping us plan the tasting, seating chart, tea ceremony and reception. They also set up the dance floor multiple times so that we could practice for the first dance and the father-daughter dance. They also allowed us to practice the night before the wedding for a "surprise" for the groom.

I grew up in the area, so I've been to Shackamaxon quite a bit. The clubhouse was renovated earlier this year and looks much more modern / updated. The ballroom floor no longer has the holes / divots underneath the carpet, so it is much safer, especially for heels. The ballroom was extremely spacious and was able to accommodate our 15 piece band and 200+ guests! They were also able to accommodate our 145'' projector which was perfect for the outdoor patio.

The food was fantastic! All of our guests complimented the food and how delicious everything was as well as how attentive the service was! Our bridal attendants were also extremely helpful and we were pleasantly surprised that we were able to get some beautiful outdoor pictures in November.

We also were able to plan the brunch and golf the following day, which was also wonderful. Overall, we really enjoyed our experience, and if we could do it again, we wouldn’t change a thing.
