It was beautiful and amazing! They provided the decor in our colors which was nice, and I was able to send the maid of honor and my mom over to decorate the tables with our own items. They did have a strict policy of not hanging anything off the ceiling which was fine for us. We went with their all-inclusive package and Patti and Jade were very responsive to our questions, the ceremony at the beach was perfect (but HOT) and the reception ran smoothly. If I were to do it over again I would probably have everyone park at the venue and rent a party bus to take us to the beach and back, some of our older guests got confused driving in Orange Beach and were late. Can't comment on the catering, we brought our own food because my sister is a chef but they did staff our buffet line without issue. Definitely would recommend.

The Eclectic Warehouse is an excellent venue. Aubrey and Shari are so kind, and very informative. There were no cost surprises, or difficulties working with them. Our first and only daughter getting married, and our experience was excellent! Their venue is breathtaking. The Woodlands was peaceful and beautiful, it was beyond our expectations. There are some logistics to figure out, but our day of wedding coordinator did her job so well, everything was smooth. The Warehouse is beautiful and set a warm ambiance. This venue is worth looking at and most definitely worth booking! You won't be disappointed.

This venue was everything I could have ever wanted and more! Sandy and her family were an absolute treasure! She was so inviting every time we were on the property. They made sure everything was set up to our liking including how I wanted the tables and chairs set up down to items being brought down to the ceremony. Their willingness to have the ceremony inside if the weather did not permit our dream outside wedding took so much stress off of me knowing I had a second option in moments notice. The venue is gorgeous and well cared for, you can truly tell they love what they do!

Let me just start by saying: HAVE YOUR WEDDING HERE. You will not regret it. Period. Sherill and Susie have a carefully thought-out process and it works like a well-oiled machine. You always have a line of communication for any questions (I asked TONS and never felt like a bother); you have sheets to fill out to prepare you for each step of the planning process. There are two official planning meetings, the first one is around 2-3 hours (really depends on how much you have/haven't set in stone) and the second is a 30-minute-ish phone call to narrow down any final details. Sherill guides you through one step at a time while Susie takes notes to ensure your vision comes true. And the most important part: wedding day. Every single detail was taken care of on wedding day; I literally didn’t have to worry about anything but drinking water, smiling, and trying not to slouch (lol) Skye was our coordinator, and she is phenomenal. She was so kind, approachable, and detailed. Florals and DJ were awesome. Dinner was hot and yummy. Cake was delicious and exactly what we wanted. Bartender was so friendly. The packages at the Chapel are an amazing value and the prices are exactly as they say. We chose the exceptional package and had the most magical day. I would redo our wedding here a million times before I even thought about going elsewhere. An all-inclusive venue is the best choice you can make. We are SO glad we chose Wedding Chapel on the Mountain. We will be forever grateful to Sherill, Susie, Skye, and every other professional at the Chapel who had an impact on our wedding!!!

The food was absolutely fantastic! Every dish was served fresh, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. Our group had a variety of dietary preferences, and the kitchen accommodated everyone without hesitation. From appetizers to desserts, everything exceeded expectations.

My husband and I were very particular with our wedding venue choice and we could not be happier. As wedding photographers and videographers ourselves, we could not recommend a better option to any couples looking. Not only is the venue itself beautiful and peaceful, but hiring the manager Amanda to coordinate our wedding was the best decision we could have made for our wedding. When we were on the hunt for a venue, our priority was to find a safe space for our wedding party, friends, and family belonging to the LGBTQIA and BIPOC communities. We did not want any person feeling unsafe or singled out on our wedding day. Having this confirmed and reassured that the venue and Amanda were inclusive made everyone’s experience phenomenal. In addition to this, it was difficult finding a place that wasn’t rustic or a barn. Many of the locations that aren’t barns also didn’t fit our vibe or they were unaffordable. For this venue, you get the best of both worlds: an elegant location that also feels like home, all while being affordable with excellent payment plans available. We received so many compliments on this location from so many different people. Whether it was the elderly family members or young friends, everyone was so impressed with the space and amazed by the ballroom for the reception. The layout of the space made it so easy for a seamless day. Amanda provided insight and assistance for everything we needed and our vendors loved her. Our wedding gallery could not be more perfect, because of this space and her hard work. This is now the top venue that we recommend to our couples! We are excited to continue to come back to capture more love stories at Mountain View Gardens and Ballroom and maintain a connection with Amanda for future couples.
