Held wedding reception at Butler Country Club on Friday 7/18/14. Lisa Burek
was the event coordinator and is EXCELLENT. From the 1st time we contacted her she was very profession...al, kind, reassuring, answered emails/phone calls promptly and we knew we could trust her to do a wonderful job. She told us she loves her job and you can tell. We dropped off decorations and the cookies the day before and she was right there with lovely compliments and helping us to unload!! I had notes as to what we wanted where & she just nodded and said "no problem". After a while I just told her to put things where she thought best as she does this all the time and I trusted her judgement.
The atmosphere is beautiful and needs nothing more. The best thing about Butler CC is that it is all inclusive.
no hidden fees. The cake is from Pennie Bakery and she was great to work with, did just as we asked and the cake was not only pretty but was delicious. We had a fun time tasting the variety of cakes at her cute little bakery. The florist used is Butler Florist and we met with Ed who was so sweet. We just told him what color flowers we wanted and trusted his judgement. We used both low vases and high vases and it was beautiful. PLUS the flowers were all real, arranged beautifully and at the end of the night,we were able to give arrangements to those friends/family that helped bake cookies,etc.It is now 6 days after the wedding and my flowers sit in a vase at my desk and look just as pretty as the day of the wedding!!! The chair covers/chair bows and napkins are also included-not additional like many places and when we walked into the room with everything coordinated-linens, cake, flowers...it was just breath-taking and stunning!!! The bar offered a nice variety and we were happy with them.
The food was EXCELLENT. We opted for the buffet and it was set up in a separate room and all of our guests were served quickly and efficiently. The chicken romano was excellent, moist, not dry!! We had carved beef--seasoned nicely and tender and delicious...fish also good.
The wait staff very professional and courteous...maybe a bit quick to clear the tables though!! After dinner, they set up our cookie table in a separate room...it was beautiful too!
the table had twinkle lights
and the cookies were displayed so pretty at different heights. We had some extra bows, netting, votives etc. and I just told Lisa she could use them on the cookie table if she thought it would look ok. Wow it was so pretty.
PLUS we just dropped off cookies in tupperware, tins etc. They trayed up all of the cookies --for no additional fee--and at the end of the night, they packed up leftovers. The venue is just beautiful with the golf course and lake views. You are able to use part of the golf course for wedding photos and they turned out so pretty.
All night, Lisa is quietly about overseeing things.
As you can tell, we were so pleased with everything. It was just so EASY to have it here. Just a few meetings to discuss details, choose a menu, cake and flowers...drop off decorations and then SHOW UP and see everything done to perfection. We were all able to enjoy it all; we received many compliments on this fantastic venue and beautiful wedding day! I highly recommend!!
