The Big Chill

Our experience having our wedding reception at The Big Chill was incredible! We worked with Kalie and she was amazing with every detail from the moment we started planning until the wedding night was over. The food was great, the drinks were on point, and everyone was amazed with the space. We were fully satisfied!! Thank you Kalie and team!

This review is overdue, but I can’t rave enough about The Big Chill, and can’t speak highly enough of the team there. My husband and I got married on June 6th, and worked with Mekenzie and Kaley. While planning in the midst of a pandemic was super stressful, Mekenzie and team kept us informed of any changes with the venue and CDC guidelines for our guests. Mekenzie kept us so organized prior to our wedding. We had meetings, phone calls, and in-person tours of the venue. It confidently made us know that we were in good hands. I could write a book about how easily our special day flowed, and how wonderful it was working with Mekenzie. You can tell she and the folks at The Big Chill really take pride in their work, and truly are passionate planners. They had a list of vendors they’d worked with, and a list of things to consider if I ever got lost about what was next for planning, or if I forgot something on my ever increasing list! Mekenzie was our Day-of coordinator. To anyone planning a wedding or event, do not skip out on hiring a Day-Of coordinator! I cannot stress this enough! Mekenzie helped us to know when to be ready after hair/makeup etc., when it was time to walk down the aisle, when we would be presented as husband and wife to our family and friends, when it was time for photos, special dances, greeting guests, cake cutting, dancing, departure, etc. She walked us through the flow of the evening a few times prior to our day to make sure we were all on the same page, where everyone would be standing, who would walk in when, etc., and she was flexible if any last minute changes needed to be made. She personally contacted and worked with the vendors we’d chosen for flowers, decorations, and cake delivery, and also our photographer and videographer. She worked with my Mom who had a surprise up her sleeve for our day, which was a photo booth for guests (GREAT SURPRISE AND INVESTMENT! I look at the pictures and notes guests left for us often!). On our wedding day, she even made sure we sat down and ate! The day went by at such a slow pace that we were able to take everything in, and not worry about anything at all because of Mekenzie. I have no idea of the amount of behind-the-scenes work she did, but she was OUTSTANDING! We were So Well taken care of! I look back just a few months later, and am so grateful to have worked with The Big Chill. I cannot thank them enough, especially Mekenzie for being so kind, gracious, organized, and wonderful to us. We have such great memories of our special day because of her! We wish her and The Big Chill nothing but much continued success in the future. We really had the best team and beautiful venue! God bless! - The Smiths

I am so happy we went with Big Chill. Mekenzie, the venue coordinator, is seriously an angel/rock star/miracle worker. She talked me down so many times without even knowing it - truly put me at peace during planning and during my wedding day. The space is absolutely perfect - areas are separated beautifully for ceremony, cocktail hour, photo booth/bonus space, cake/dessert room, and reception area. The dance floor is the perfect size. The ideas they have are amazing (won't spoil here in case a future guest reads, but trust me, you'll find out if you go with them!). I want to relive my night over and over again. It was absolutely perfect and I am actually trying to find an event to go to at this space just so I can be in it again!

My husband and I had our reception at Big Chill on 11/06 and we could not have been more pleased! There are not enough words for how hard this team works, especially Mekenzie. She is one of a kind! Planning a wedding during COVID has been stressful, but she was with us every step of the way!! She had our reception planned out perfectly! We have not stopped receiving compliments from our family and friends about how wonderful everything was orchestrated! This place has everything you could want and more. Mekenzie was always one step ahead of us with planning and made us feel confident and extra special on our big day. Thank you so much!!!!
