New Park Event Venue

My husband and I got married at New Park at the end of September and it was so beautiful. The venue is naturally stunning, and the rooms are wonderful. We rented it out for the whole weekend and had our wedding party and family stay on site. We were able to have all of our events around the wedding there as well. In addition, Sara (the owner) is so helpful with planning and coordinating the day of. I couldn't recommend this place enough!!

We got married at New Park about 4 months ago, and it was absolutely magical! The scenery was breathtaking—exactly what I envisioned for my “backyard, but not a backyard” wedding. Multiple guests even said it was the favorite wedding they’d ever attended! There was plenty of space to dance, but guests also had so many other fun options like cornhole, ping pong, and relaxing by the fire. The venue is truly unique, and if I could do it all over again, I wouldn’t choose anywhere else. Huge thanks to Sara and the entire New Park team for making our day unforgettable! 😊

This place is a beautiful inside and out! The stonework is amazing, you can find elephants, grapes, keys, horses if you look closely

New Park is beautiful despite management. I recently got married there and, although the wedding was beautiful, the path there was full of stress because of how the management operates the venue. With the utter lack of transparency, communication, and standards for upkeep, my wife and I had no faith in venue management. Eventually, I concluded that management seemed money hungry and unprofessional. Instead of repairing damages and safety hazards at the venue, the owner is investing in another new property, which they are likely to try and force couples to use—the same approach with the bar service company they also own. Everywhere we looked, it became obvious that management was looking for ways to charge their clients for more while providing less. Our wedding party was told to arrive at 3, and rooms weren’t ready until 4. Amenities we were told would be provided were not in fact provided. Our own wedding party members had to clean tables the day of the wedding to ensure all would be ready on time. There were layers of grime on furnishings in the rooms and garbage all over the venue when we arrived.

New Park is an incredibly beautiful & unique wedding venue, I am glad that we chose it as the space to have our wedding. The reason our wedding went off without a hitch is because of every other vendor we had aside from New Park. The communication, management, and maintenance of the entire venue needs major work. Full transparency, we booked the “Full Weekend Wedding Package” and paid Sara over 20k for the venue, rooms (which cost more for a wedding than any other night) and bar (which we didn’t have a choice, we had to book her sister company Cedarwood). If I listed all the things that went wrong after we signed a contract with New Park, no one would read this review because it would be far too long. What I will address are major areas that need improvement for this venue to be worth what it costs. 1. Fix broken things: replace broken lights and burnt out bulbs around venue. Repair/replace broken chairs in Wish room. Fix sliding doors, broken blinds, and missing towel racks in rooms. 2. Clean & upkeep the spaces: cobwebs, gunk/stains on walls, dirt caking coffee table legs in bridal suite, s’mores ingredients should be fresh, pick up garbage on the grounds, dinner tent draping is filthy. Ensure all rooms are ready on time for arrival (bridal party members had to wait to get into their room an hour after check in). 3. COMMUNICATION! Tell your brides & grooms your timeline prior to arrival of what to expect for set up. Respond to emails, make sure you don’t send out emails with wrong info and then respond unprofessionally when the bride asks for clarification. 4. Maintain your grounds: Parking areas need lighting (pitch black at night). Ensure all walking paths are stable and free of hazards (we had to fix many stones), walking paths are full of weeds and not well maintained. 5. New bathrooms: honestly the bathrooms are disgusting. There is no bathroom that is available to guests who can’t do stairs. I believe Sara hides behind the work that was put into this venue at its creation. She claims its issues are because the spaces & cottages are “eclectic” when I actually think it is just incompetent management & maintenance. To have this venue in this shape, and claim you can’t fix these issues due to money, and then you buy another venue & catering company just doesn’t make sense to me. If Sara can fix these issues, or the venue comes under new management, I would absolutely recommend New Park as a wedding venue!

This is probably an amazing place to have an event. It's extremely pretty and the rooms have a lot of unusual details. Unfortunately their other service, renting out rooms when there is no event happening, fell short. It's quite isolated, and there is no owner on the property, just random cottages you open with a code, and a few open buildings with no one in them. If you wish to get ice you must buy it with venmo. This is a beautiful place with some very interesting quirky details. But the quirky details have replaced the amenities I actually want. I don't need a rain shower, I do need a place to hang my wet towel. I don't need a toilet that requires a remote control and does random things all night long, I do need a place to put my toiletries. I don't need a phone booth in my room, I do need somewhere to plug in my phone. No kidding. There is an actual old-timey phone booth built into the wall. I need a fan that doesn't clunk all night long. Not hearing the guy next door snoring would be awesome. Some bottled water or other welcome giftie would be nice at this price point. Shower is gorgeous, but cracked bottles of shampoo and conditioner must go on the floor because the janky soap holder will not support them. This was a unique experience and it certainly wasn't terrible, the beds were comfy and the vibe is peaceful, but we won't be coming back.

This was my second trip to New Park for an event and it was more beautiful than I remembered. Many improvements in the surrounding landscape have enhanced the gorgeous surroundings. Staff is friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend!

What a gorgeous venue!!! Every room had such intricate detail. Sarah was a true professional!!! Best wedding I’ve gone to hands down!!

We recently had our wedding weekend at New Park and booked all 7 suites. I wasn’t someone who initially wanted a big wedding but, we knew New park was right for us the minute we saw it. It was truly the wedding of our dreams!! Our guests were blown away by the beauty that is Newpark both in and out of the suites. Sarah and Cynthia were incredible. When booking your wedding add ons may seem like a lot but, I can honestly say the bourbon and cigar bar was the highlight for me!! It was the one moment that got me off the dance floor and mingling outside and it was a blast! I can say Thank you enough to Sarah and her team for making our dreams come true. We will be back for our anniversary 😍
