We had our wedding on August 1st this year with about 140 guests. We had toured a few places and nothing stood out more to us then the coordinator that comes along with booking great oaks, Keli. She was so informative, so passionate about her job. She is a major reason we booked this venue. It has been recently renovated and the price is priced out per person and includes so many things. This really helped in the long run because great oaks provided almost everything we wanted! It made the set up and tear down so easy, I really wasn’t involved at all. We had the most amazing wedding. Everything was flawless. We did have one issue with a vendor and Keli was already on top of it. Her and her team had resolved the issue and followed up on it immediately. Keli made me feel so at ease with the whole process and it was just absolutely the best day ever and that was largely to do with Keli and all of her help and guidance. I think great oaks is a no brainer for brides looking for an all inclusive venue! Couldn’t have asked for anything more !

We had our wedding at Great Oaks Country Club on July 11, 2026. The entire process working with Great Oaks was outstanding. Keli Mannino, the wedding coordinator, is BEYOND wonderful!!! She is SO on top of every last detail, communicates throughly and was transparent throughout all of our planning. She was an absolute joy to work with. We don’t know how she does it, she’s clearly passionate about what she does. We cannot say enough nice things about Keli.
The venue was stunning (recently renovated), the patio is amazing on a summer wedding night, and the food was great quality and everyone enjoyed it. We were able to bring all of our decor and wedding items to the venue two weeks in advance of our wedding day which was incredibly helpful. Overall our day was PERFECT thanks to Keli and the help of her staff. Soo beyond beautiful - thank you Great Oaks for hosting our special day!! We will forever look back on this day with the best memories.

We recently had our ceremony and reception here at Great Oaks (June 6, 2026). It turned out to be such a beautiful day and event everyone continues to compliment us on. We booked o...
ut pretty early and had the pleasure of communicating with their coordinator, Keli Manino, for almost 18 months in preparation. She truly is amazing at what she does. There were some issues along the way and some changes had to be made and our ceremony spot was moved but Keli was always so personable, eager to get us to our vision, and willing to do whatever to make the day perfect. It turned out better than we could have imagined.
The recent renovations to the inside are absolutely stunning and guests still are talking about how delicious the dinner and late night snack were. I highly recommend renting out the additional rooms for cocktail hour & the reception, it made the event flow so seamlessly. The servers were absolutely amazing and we never felt once like someone was waiting for something.
The day of Keli went above and beyond navigating set up and the vendors for me and any issues that arose. I did not feel the need to hire a day of coordinator because I knew Keli had it under control. She was there from the very beginning of our planning until the end of the day we got married.
I highly recommend this venue to anyone looking for a beautiful ceremony or even just a reception spot!

Everything went smoothly with the whole staff, they made myself and my husband feel so special on our wedding day. All of our guests talk about how beautiful Great Oaks was and how delicious the food was. I could not recommend this place more, I tell anyone who will listen about it, hahaha.

Keli was a huge reason our wedding day was so perfect and flowed so well and on the perfect timeline. She made sure of wedding day stayed on time while allowing us to enjoy every moment. The entire staff at Great Oaks was so incredible including our serves, bartenders, valet attendants , and of course Keli! Thank you to Keli and everyone at Great Oaks for making our day so special!

As far as the venue itself goes, it is beautiful!! Our wedding was the end of October and the golf course and the colors in our photos are gorgeous. It’s a very elegant and romantic setting and the food is amazing! We loved everything we tried during our tasting and received lots of great feedback from our guests about how yummy everything was. All the staff on the day of were kind and had things in order. It was truly the perfect day! HIGHLY recommend!!!

Beautiful venue, delicious food and hands down THE BEST coordinator in Keli. Keli is extremely responsive, very creative, thoughtful and just genuinely a great person. We knew with her overseeing everything that it was going to be a perfect day. And it was!! I have heard from people daily of how awesome the wedding was. I am so thankful we found Great Oaks and Keli!! My daughter’s message to me the next morning was “That was the best wedding ever!!” Thank you Keli! Mission accomplished!!

ring all of our questions. Scheduling the tasting was very easy, and we were blown away by how great the food was. Despite postponement and rescheduling of our wedding due to COVID, Olivia and her staff were understanding and compassionate in easing my stress and frustration as we finalized a new date. Now let me get to the day of the wedding… not only were all the staff at GOCC kind and patient, but the service was top notch! The wait staff were excellent, always there with exactly what our guests needed and the bar staff kept everyone “hydrated” with some of the best drinks around. It’s been weeks and our guests are still talking about how great the food and drinks were (thanks Nate & Jeanetta!!). Olivia masterfully coordinated the timing and schedule so that I did not have to worry about a thing, even helping bustle my gown and throw a few extra bobby pins in my hair to pin up the fly-aways before our grand entrance! The event space is so elegant and beautiful, and the staff did an excellent job setting up the room exactly how we wanted it! Our guests especially loved the outdoor patio, and the golf course had plenty of beautiful places to take breathtaking photos. I would highly recommend this hidden gem to any bride and groom for your wedding, you won’t regret it!!

lobby because of the dress code that the event coordinator failed to mention.. (I was wearing blue jeans and a polo). She didnt even take the time to turn us away herself. If she would of told us up front, I would have dressed accordingly. Very poorly handled.
Response from Great Oaks Country Club
Hello Garrett, we returned your call, message and email, with no response. We understand ...
what you are describing is frustration and disappointment with the dress code we have at our facility. The no denim policy is a common standard dress code with most country clubs in this area, and throughout the industry. Reminders are typed on the bottom of all of our company emails as well as posted online and the message we sent to your fiancé stated "If planning a visit, please schedule an appointment. Great Oaks Country Club has a no denim policy, when planning a visit, site tour or an event please dress accordingly and advise your guests"
I am sorry you felt rejected in the lobby, that is not our intend. The gentlemen who approached you has worked here many years and is our membership services director, he was the one who had it brought to his attention by a few staff and members. We try our very best to uphold the standards and rules set in place from the board of directors and our membership, while remaining professional, understanding and kind. We appreciate your openness in sharing, and wish you the best of luck in your future wedding plans.

Everything is private and gives you a true "bridal" moment. Taking pictures out on the course was excellent and we were even given blankets to wrap up in between shops. Dinner was everything I wanted. We actually wouldn't book until tasting the food and it did NOT disappoint. I could go on and on but this place was an absolute dream.

huge and elegant, and Olivia, the wedding coordinator, was incredible. We lived out of state throughout our engagement so we really appreciated Olivia's open communication and willingness to work with our families when we couldn't personally attend a meeting. Our wedding was stress-free because Olivia handled all the issues that came up. She even reminded us to eat which was also greatly appreciated. She was great at handling difficult family members and really prioritizes the bride/groom's wants. The event staff were friendly and knowledgeable. After our ceremony, we took pictures on the golf course, which involved riding around the course in golf carts (one of the most fun moments of the wedding). It's honestly a gorgeous venue with a top of the line staff.

ct our day was. Olivia and her team are the very best. Working with Olivia was the best experience I could have imagined. She helped me finalize the decor (and her suggestions were perfect), she accommodated last minute changes, she ran our rehearsal which was a breathe of fresh air as the bride to just relax the day for the wedding, suggested amazing locations for photos and even got on her hands and knees to fluff my dress. We felt like celebrities all day long. The Great Oaks team did a phenomenal job checking in on us and getting anything and everything we needed. They all were so helpful and kind. Our guests raved about the food and service they received as well. Olivia and Great Oaks helped us to have our dream wedding. I can honestly say that knowing Olivia was there on my wedding day I was not stressed at all - she handled everything we needed. The process of planning with Great Oaks was a breeze as well. The food was outstanding and I cannot rave enough about the service. The grounds are kept absolutely stunning and our photos are breathtaking. I would highly suggest booking with Great Oaks as they reduced so much of the wedding stress a bride typically has by having their packages and just overall amazing staff.

interested in making our experience live up to our expectations. I can’t say enough about Olivia, the Director of Sales and Events, who is also the Day-Of Coordinator. She was always available to answer questions, very thorough in noting every detail and ensuring it was carried out according to plan, and determined to prevent as much as humanly possible from going wrong. It was obvious from her work that she has a lot of experience working with brides and has successfully navigated MANY weddings. My husband and I highly recommend holding any event at Great Oaks Country Club to our family members and friends, and felt compelled to share our impression with everyone who may be looking into this venue.

The grounds, the staff, the food, the location, and their venue space was perfect. We had space for 170 people for a sit down dinner and dancing. The space for getting ready was big enough and soo pretty. When we had a request for snack and drink before the wedding it was handled in a snap (even though they did not have to and could have charged extra). I could not have had a more beautiful and fun wedding and I am so thankful we chose Great Oaks.

Overall, my husband and I absolutely loved having our reception at Great Oaks. My husband's grandparents have been members for a long time, so we were very familiar with the venue...
before we moved forward, but the amazing service exceeded our expectations. Kristan, our wedding coordinator, took over for someone who left the club about halfway through our planning and made it a seamless transition! She did a great job from start to finish and really helped to make it a special day for us. Since the wedding, our friends and family have raved about the food and service - specifically bartenders Janetta and John (definitely request them if you can!). Overall, we thought the prices were reasonable, especially for a country club. They include taxes and gratuity, which makes planning your budget very simple. The golf course is also perfect for taking pictures. For someone who isn't as big of a golf fan as my husband, the course offers lots of views that don't make it seem like you're on a golf course. Our only recommendation to Great Oaks is that they ensure couples have access to specific spots on the course that were previously discussed without issue. We were able to take all of the photos we wanted, but not being able to do so in a timely manner can add a little stress to the day.
If you are looking for top notch service and a beautiful location, we definitely recommend Great Oaks Country Club.

My wife and I spent months looking for a beautiful hall that would accommodate 120 people without adding a 'dividing wall' between two separate parties. It got quite frustrating as...
many country clubs with perfect sized floor plans would require a minimum price to rent the hall that would frighten you (we've seen as high as a 20k minimum).
Great Oaks Country Club worked perfectly for us with no minimum balance and no sharing rooms with other parties. Their event coordinator at the time, Amber, helped us greatly with finding vendors, color coordinating and creating the floor plan. At some point Amber moved south and was replaced with Kristan, who was also a great team member and helped us with the menu selection and taste testing.
If I had to do it again I would recommend making sure that anything discussed was written down because there was some conversation history lost when Amber left. Reworking things that were already decided upon was a bit of a headache but Kristan helped fixing that mess with us.
Overall I highly recommend Great Oaks Country Club.

I was able to have an outdoor ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception all in the same place. Amber, the coordinator, made the day stressfree and fun! She handled all the details for vendor coordination, last minute requests, and smooth flow for the day. She is an asset to Great Oaks, and a big reason to choose Great Oaks.

This was the PERFECT place for our wedding!! Stephanie Craft (Director) is the most amazing lady; she will make sure that everything is taken care of in a timely, accurate manner. ...
The staff at Great Oaks were incredibly nice and courteous. Our guests were amazed at how beautiful our wedding turned out and how smoothly the night went. If you want a convenient location, lovely venue, wonderful staff, and you don't want to break the bank, Great Oaks Country Club is right for you!!

The team at Great Oaks was great. The service provided on the day of the wedding was fantastic. The food was outstanding and all of my guests were raving about it for months after....
The large windows, porch, and decor of the room make for a great atmosphere. You have to pay for valet parking as part of your wedding package, which I think is strange since the parking lot is directly in front of the doors.
My husband and I returned to Great Oaks to celebrate our 1 year anniversary. We are not members but they let us have dinner there since we had our wedding reception there. Dinner was fantastic and a great reminder of our wedding day.

We had an excellent experience at Great Oaks. The venue is beautiful. It was a large enough space to comfortably seat 140 guests for dinner and dancing. Lovely view of the golf ...
course. Guests could wander out on the deck. The food was fantastic!! We received so many compliments. Everyone did an excellent job - the chef, bartenders, waitstaff, valets, receptionist. Stephanie was a gem to work with. Once dinner was over, Sean took over managing the event and was very helpful for cleanup. There were many extra touches including an extremely fun and courteous staff the day of the event.

Having our wedding reception at Great Oaks Country Club was one of the best decisions we made. No regrets! Stephanie was the best coordinator - very detail-oriented and organized -...
and made sure our wedding was executed flawlessly. She even dressed up the day of the wedding in our wedding colors, which just shows her dedication. The venue was gorgeous with the views of the golf course in the background. They let us use the golf carts for pictures and even provide a four-some for golf to the groom to use at a future date, which was much appreciated for the golf fan. Bartender was amazing, cooks fabulous, valet crew awesome, service staff impeccable. Everyone was impressed, especially with the food, even saying it was the best food they have ever had at a wedding. After the staff cleaned up for the night, they made an area of all our items for us to pick up the next morning after the wedding. Just knowing they were taking care of everything was a life-saver to us. Would highly recommend to anyone in the area looking for a classy reception venue with top-notch service at a great value.

Great Oaks is a gorgeous venue at an affordable price. My husband and I knew as soon as we walked in that was exactly where we wanted to get married so we changed our anticipated w...
edding date to one they had available. The food is excellent and my guests could not have been happier. Lindsay was great to work with and fast and responsive. She told me that my weddings was one of the least demanding weddings she has had in a while. We did our centerpieces ourselves and Lindsay did a great job setting them up and making the room look beautiful as I imagined. I did have some instances in which my guests were unhappy with the services received but overall I have absolutely no complaints about working with Great Oaks.
I definitely recommend booking your wedding with their staff and beautiful venue.

s having a good time, but I think that she has too much work on her plate and is overworked so some things fell through the cracks. The venue is beautiful and well located so it was a perfect choice for us.
