From the reviews

I had the pleasure of doing a live wedding painting at The Hummingbird Chateau in April! Lovely venue and owner! Would definitely recommend and I hope to be back in the future.

Wow. How can I possibly capture with words the wedding I just had at this venue. Holy hummingbirds batman. First off, the space is GORGEOUS. I had people coming up to me all night telling me how beautiful the venue was.

★★★★★ — Hart, Sep 2025

The Hummingbird Chateau was truly everything we could have dreamed of and more. From the moment we first toured it, we fell in love with how unique, beautiful, and thoughtfully designed every space was.

We had our wedding at Hummingbird Chateau, and I truly can’t say enough great things about the entire experience. From start to finish, everything was handled with such care, professionalism, and genuine kindness that it made our day completely stress-free.

Getting married at The Hummingbird 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 — The Hummingbird 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.
