The Antler

I recently had the honor of working with Jennifer and Mark Shelton at The Antler. I was the Wedding Planner and we chose The Antler for the reception even before they had begun construction. From day one their professionalism and attention to detail put me at ease. I saw the plans but never dreamed that they would create a space that has so much opportunity and has such attention to detail.
Upon first viewing the property and architecture are organic but the design possibilities are endless. Your event can be as rustic or elegant as you can imagine. The spaces are open and not over decorated allowing the event designer to create based on the client’s personal style. The lighting is elegant yet intimate. There’s plenty of power to bring in sound and lighting to create the desired ambience. The buildings are large with tall ceilings so we kept acoustics in mind as we designed the event.
There’s a commercial kitchen in Grey Manor and a catering kitchen in The Grand Hall and even a full «home» kitchen in the cabins. Our caterer used the kitchens and set up a tent, as well. Everything moved to perfection.
It’s not a commercial building in an urban setting but there are parking options and Mark was a huge help in thinking through the logistics. More than anything it’s the perfect place for meetings, reunions, social gatherings and especially to make memories. Wedding Planners, Event Designers and Caterers alike will surely enjoy making magic at The Antler.
