Victorian Crow’s Nest

My family and I attended a wedding reception last night. Everything was perfect: food was excellent, staff was friendly and helpful, the house is charming and the ballroom was spacious. I have no idea what it cost but as a guest I was impressed.

RUDE RUDE RUDE! I recently emailed a reqest for information… and the response was quick, but quite rude. I asked about having less than 75 guests, and the response was «Actually below 75 just doesn’t work at Victorian Crow’s Nest». I am looking at around 60 people. but I quite loved this venue. Had they responded with something nice and professional. I could easily invite 15 more people. My budget is quite large. and really just depends on the right venue… but I am upset that a place I was very excited to get information from was SO RUDE.

Attended an amazing wedding here this weekend. Absolutely beautiful venue, ceremony ran smoothly, gorgeous ballroom, wonderful food, fun DJ, awesome flowers. I would highly recommend this venue for any special event!

I recently had my wedding here and I wondered why this venue had 5 stars and realized there are hardly any reviews for the number of weddings that take place here! I guess only several people out of the 100’s of weddings felt happy enough to write something. I am here to tell you that my experience was far less than perfect and there is not enough space on here for me to explain why. You will be made a lot of promises in the beginning and it will sound wonderful but once they get your money your just another number. Where to begin??? I was told when I first signed on, that my wedding would be the only event that weekend which would make anyone feel special right? Wrong! We found out that a birthday party would be taking place the night of my rehearsal at the venue. Shirley (the owner) actually told my wedding party and my family that we need to make this rehearsal quick because she had to get back to the party inside the ballroom! Also, Shirley was SUPPOSED to be my wedding coordinator the day of my wedding. When my minister was running late, she proceeded to ASK ME where the minister was while I am sitting here trying to get ready. My guests were then sitting outside wondering what was going on and nobody made a single announcement as to what the delay was and left them confused and anxious. During the reception, we had the cake cutting/​champagne toast and nobody was there to guide us through what to do. We were looking around for Shirley to but she disappeared with my flowers that were on my cake table. So the flowers, Shirley asked my Mother and Mother and Law if she could have the flowers for a «charity» event after my wedding. They said yes but they would like some to take home. At the end of the wedding, when the rude staff was rushing everyone out the door, one of my guests was grabbing a flower piece for my mother and Shirley yelled at him and told him not to give those flowers away. He explained that it was for our parents and she proceeded to yell at him and made a scene which totally ruined my sendoff!!! UNPROFESSIONAL!!! I am also livid with how my own parents were treated when they were trying to gather all of my stuff and rush out of the venue at the end of the night. They were snapped at by the staff and treated like second class citizens. DO NOT HAVE A WEDDING HERE!
