“The food was great and the bartenders and staff were all so wonderful.”
From the reviews
If I could write a 10-star review about Belvedere Chateau, I would. We booked our hall in 2017, with previous owners. I was a little concerned when I found out there would be new owners for our wedding on 9-14-19. I was so wrong. Ela and Bolek (the new owners) went above and BEYOND for our wedding.
BEAUTIFUL Venue, AMAZING service, and food was to die for!!!! I had my wedding there this weekend(11/11/23) and leading up to it, the process was flawless. From the moment I booked in Feb 2022, Jadzia was available at any time to help with any questions I had. She was so helpful and so sweet!!
Over the past 35 years we have hosted many of our annual events at Belvedere Chateau, and we have never been disappointed. The customer service is top-notch, the food variety and quality is fantastic, and the banquet halls are always clean and well prepared for any size events.
Stunning venue with amazing renovations. Staff was attentive and great. Food unfortunately was just ok, soup was wonderful but the rest of the family style dinner has some room for improvement, may have been an off night
Getting married at Belvedere Chateau
A castle wedding is the once-in-a-lifetime, storybook kind — the grand staircase, the ballroom, the gardens and turrets your photos will live on forever. Castle weddings commonly run $10,000–$40,000+ depending on the date, guest count, and how much is included, so ask for a written quote for your season — Belvedere Chateau doesn’t publish a set price, and tiers move fast. Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see it at the time of day you’d actually get married — a ballroom that glows at golden hour can feel very different at noon, and you’ll want to walk the path your guests take from the gates to the ceremony to the reception. Second, bring your real questions: what’s included with the venue fee (tables, chairs, setup, teardown), the catering and bar policy, whether you can stay overnight on-site, the rain plan for a garden ceremony, and the music curfew. Fairytale dates at castle venues book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what’s open in your season before you leave.
