WORDS ABOUT US, FROM PEOPLE WE LOVE

“Most amazing venue within 100 miles easily” — Warren G. (September 2019)

“Everyone could not stop talking about the food…the cake…THE EXPERIENCE. Chanteclaire is a very special place and I hold it very close to my heart. I couldn’t imagine being married anywhere else. Leigh you are one of a kind and your staff is fabulous.” — Chelsea (July 2016)

“Groom here: The staff at Chanteclaire Farm are what really take this place over the top and well beyond. Not only is the venue picturesque and well designed, but everyone we interacted with was flexible and accommodating. Leigh, Tony, Michelle, and all the rest of the staff helped us execute our wedding day flawlessly. I can't thank them enough for their energy and dedication to a job well done; not just professionally but personally. Their efforts spared my bride (and me) so much hassle and stress (for which they have my undying gratitude) and without hesitation I would absolutely recommend them to any couple looking for a place to be married. I had my doubts when my bride selected a place over 100 miles away, but I can tell you now that I wouldn't change it for the world.” — Kyle C. (October 2016)

“If you’re looking for a venue that does it all, and does it FLAWLESSLY might I add, you’ve found the right place! From the beginning to the end of the process Ann, Leigh and April made our process simple and immensely fun...Honestly, you will worry about nothing. This venue is a well-oiled machine. We listened to all the suggestions and guidance and we could not be happier with how our wedding day went!” — Bridget H. (July 2019)

“Most couples that we spoke to prior to the wedding told us to elope. That weddings were too stressful and expensive. That all of the work that you put into it doesn't pay off. Well now after having our wedding I would have to disagree completely with them. I would do it all over again and not change a thing. I know that Chanteclaire Farm is responsible for that.” — Rebecca B. (September 2015)

“The staff at Chanteclaire are the most wonderful people who did everything they could to make our experience wonderful - by the end of the wedding weekend I felt like we had made new friends. The food was absolutely delicious - I have gotten so many compliments on the perfectly cooked steak and the cake was best cake I've ever had in my life.” — Caitlin F. (September 2014)

“The venue was beautiful - the food was phenomenal. But more than anything, the staff was what made the event so special. Each person gave us all such personal attention. It truly was like they were part of the family. When I left the event, I felt like I had made a lot of new friends.” — Jackie M. (July 2015)

“Leigh took away all my worries for the day of the wedding. She had every detail in order and knew how to handle anything you threw at her, such as mud on my dress, misplacing my bouquet, and weather changes, quickly and calmly. I'm a worrier, and her demeanor gave me the feeling that there was nothing that could ever ruin the wedding day.” — Kelsey K. June 2016

“I'd probably describe myself as a hands-off bride. . I didn't want to plan decorations or choose a caterer. And I didn't want to be chasing birds out of the barn rafters! Chanteclaire...WOW! From decorating, catering, timing, etc, the staff at Chanteclaire does it all. The barn is so beautifully decorated that I barely did anything (which is exactly what I wanted). The food is delicious and the variety is amazing. Cake, cookies, pie, donuts. I was a gluten free bride and they were very accommodating. Gluten free cake, yum! After years of hosting awesome weddings, they have timing down to a science. They kept our day moving smoothly. The staff is just amazing. This was a destination wedding for us. I've been to Deep Creek dozens of times, but we didn't know any vendors in the area. They were able to provide me with a list of people they work with and trust, so I didn't even have to think about finding other vendors. My guests were blown away. I had so many compliments and people had a BLAST. I've never seen so many people on the dance floor at a wedding, and I'm still getting compliments almost a year later. I love Chanteclaire. I would recommend them to anyone. Thanks for an amazing experience, Chanteclaire team!” — Haley W. (August 2018)

“... if i could give more stars I would! Chanteclaire Farm made my wedding absolutely perfect from start to finish…Chanteclaire is hands down the best venue in the wedding world…Every staff member was so personable and so sweet, I literally felt like I gained like 10 new friends with the staff of the event! Also a huge shout out to the Dj's.. they were AMAZING!!! As a self proclamation, "dancing queen" I literally never left the dance floor, and every single one of my guest were up on the dance floor!…The food was AMAZING! The cake was AMAZING!…the food at Chanteclaire is not your typical wedding food, it is definitely cooked with love and was loved by every single one of my guest! I could go on and on, but for a girl that never dreamed of what her wedding would be when she got married... Chanteclaire Farm would have blown them all away. It was the best night of our life!” — Taylor Z. (May 2018)

“The staff at Chanteclaire Farm really mean it when they say that they make magic happen at their venue. I have chills just thinking about how perfect our wedding day was! Having a Saturday wedding meant we were able to have the venue from Friday morning until Sunday morning, and that made all the world of a difference for stress levels!…we were able to really soak in the experience for the remainder of the weekend…. Leigh Clarke is the owner and mastermind to this magic, and collectively, she has a very strong, professional team of people around her to make your wedding dreams come true. They are all very, very kind, accommodating, and think out EVERY detail of the day - I saw one lady with a measuring tape setting up the ceremony chairs ensuring they were perfectly spaced! Importantly, not only did I feel like a million bucks on my wedding day, but I can't emphasize enough how special the GUESTS felt throughout the evening at the reception…The food is to die for!… it will be the best "wedding food" you've ever eaten! … The DJ they have on site will ensure you have "dance floor stories" to tell the next day…the night just kept unfolding, for everyone! There is so much depth to the quality of the experience they provide here, and they do it with passion because they love what they do… Your feet won't touch the ground for days because they will elevate your experience to new heights.” — Stephanie S. (July 2015)

“…Staff made the day relaxing as can be and well run. The ambience was unlike any other, the General Aire of the venue was elegant, inviting, fun and provided amazing memories, the accommodations on site for the groomsmen in the cabin allowed for memories to be made that will last a lifetime and was perfect for a group of close friends, the farmhouse added elegance for the bridesmaids and provided an amazing gathering place following the reception.If you are thinking about a venue YOU MUST VISIT HERE!” — Brian G. (July 2019)

“Venue, food & cake, DJ, bartender & servers were ALL fabulous.” — Bridget H. (July 2019)

“It was so nice being able to stay close to the venue all weekend.” — Jennifer S. (April 2018)

“It is every bride's dream!…The barn is so authentic and unique that very little decorations are needed… I had at least 20 guests tell me that it was by far the best wedding they had ever been to!” — Jess H. (September 2014)

“The owner, Leigh, has become a friend of the family due to her playful, but firm attitude towards wedding planning. She knows all. Trust her…
Her team knows how to throw one hell of a party!!” — Jennifer S. (April 2018)

“…Guests dancing until the last song. Everyone from Chanteclaire involved in our wedding day were more than just vendors by the end of this experience. They were friends and welcomed guests at our wedding.” — Kelsey K. (June 2016)

“…even more fun than I thought wedding planning would be. The best part were the Skype meetings and the tasting events!! The whole process was made a lot easier by this. You have exceeded our expectations with everything about the wedding!” — Kimberly C. (November 2020)

“Everything was beyond helpful and very easy to follow. Correspondence was timely, and if we did have questions, we received answers almost immediately. I've been bragging on how "smoothly" our wedding day went. It was gorgeous! Everyone said it was one of the most beautiful weddings they'd ever attended.” — Elise H. (September 2019)

“EVERY guest has reached out to me telling me that this was the best wedding they have ever been to. The were in love with the venue, they loved the authenticity of our ceremony and the tiny personalized details that really illustrated who we are as a couple, they loved the food, and loved that the part didn't end at the super fun dance floor, but they could continue the celebration at the bonfire!” — Kyleigh W. (September 2019)

“It's hard to describe the magic of Chanteclaire Farm. I woke up on the morning of my wedding and had zero stress because I knew that the barn would look beautiful, that the ceremony space would be rustic and simple, but elegant, and I knew everything would run smoothly, because Chanteclaire has done this a million times before and had instilled in me nothing but faith in what they can accomplish. Every question I ever had (I always thought it was the first time they were asked the question because it was a GREAT question that no one else could ever possibly think of), they had an answer for. The rehearsal dinner was beautiful, the ceremony was emotional, funny, intimate, and beautiful, the reception was a BLAST, and the bonfire was so much fun. My guests had the time of their lives. And guess what....I didn't lift a single finger. I got to be the "hands-off" bride. And every single thing was.....INCREDIBLE. My piece of advice for those that choose to have their wedding at Chanteclaire: Trust the process. Trust the staff. Have faith that everything will be perfect, because it WILL BE. Your job is to get married- let Chanteclaire's magic do all the rest.” — Stephanie D. (October 2020)

“The best part of everyone staying on property was that we did not have to make travel arrangements for the wedding night, it was easy for family to attend and not have to leave the venue. The farmhouse was a huge space for everyone to get ready, large suite for the bride, and the cabin was so rustic and perfect for the guys!” — Stephanie S. (June 2019)

“If you’re looking for a venue that does it all, and does it FLAWLESSLY might I add, you’ve found the right place! Honestly, you will worry about nothing. This venue is a well oiled machine. We listened to all the suggestions and guidance and we could not be happier with how our wedding day went! I would 100% recommend this venue and its team, you will not regret it. Thank you to everyone at Chanteclaire who made our wedding weekend so fun and enjoyable.” — Bridget H. (July 2019)

“Chanteclaire EXCEEDED our expectations!!” — Jessica B. (June 2019)

“All I have to say is...absolute perfection. The perfect venue. The most kind and caring staff! They most certainly know how to make every detail come to life to create the most magical environment and feeling all night long! The quaint, rustic vibe is incomparable to anything I've ever seen in my life! The scenery on-site makes for amazing wedding photography and the barn is already so beautifully decorated!!! I can't think of enough positive things to say about this place. I would recommend to any bride looking to get married in this area!!!! Your guests will have the TIME OF THEIR LIVES and you and your husband will make some of the best memories of your life!!!” — Ashley K. (July 2017)

“Chanteclaire Farm is a dream wedding venue. Our day was absolutely perfect. I'd have my wedding there again in a heartbeat. I'd probably describe myself as a hands-off bride. I looked at a few similar venues, but I would have to plan everything. I didn't want to plan decorations or choose a caterer. And I didn't want to be chasing birds out of the barn rafters! Chanteclaire...WOW! From decorating, catering, timing, etc, the staff at Chanteclaire does it all.” — Haley D. (July 2017)

“Having help was EVERYTHING to us! We are two busy people, and to have our Chanteclaire family help us out with every planning detail was just what we needed. We couldn't have asked for anything more. Never doubt Chanteclaire. They are miracle workers- they work magic. You will be AMAZED. Our dance floor was PACKED from the moment people were welcomed onto the dance floor until the music stopped and it was time to transition over to the bonfire.” — Stephanie D. (October 2020)

“We loved the ease of having all the sheets on the portal for the DJs and having the playlist on Spotify to be able to pick from!! You exceeded our expectations with everything about the wedding from the food to cake to Haleigh!!” — Kimberly C. (November 2020)

“I think I am still dreaming about that brie chicken. Everything exceeded our expectations! We were both very nervous to get married and from 3pm (when Haleigh took over) everything went smoothly. The food was amazing, the cake, the bartending. The reception area, the dance floor. It was all amazing and I have only good things to say about all of it!” — Sarah G. (May 2021)

“Flawless, fun, memorable, best day ever. Chanteclaire Farm is a dream come true venue, the team is absolutely wonderful to work with. We had a great time during the planning stages of the wedding, Haleigh and Leigh are so kind, fun, and easy to work with. They truly know what they are doing and do their best to make your special day the best day ever. We still share stories of how wonderful and amazing our wedding day was, our guest loved everything from the scenery, the music, the silo bar, the Food, to the bon fire! Lasting memories from the most special day. Highly recommended, above and beyond.” — Lachelle S. (October 2020)

“I could write a book of how wonderful Chanteclaire is. This venue was absolutely a fairytale from start to finish. The location is gorgeous and tucked away where you feel like you are in your own little bubble while staying on-site all weekend it makes the weekend more convenient and memorable! Then there's Haleigh the day-of coordinator and wedding planner! She goes above and beyond to make sure you are stress-free and everything is taken care of! The food..... every single one of our guests said this was not only the best wedding they have gone too but the best food they ever had at any wedding too. We are beyond ecstatic about how amazing our wedding was and thank you staff and all that work at Chanteclaire for seriously one of the best days of our lives!” — Trista R (August 2022)

“There aren’t enough stars to rate how much I love this vendor! The surprised look people get when I say I’m not stressed wedding planning is all thanks to Haleigh & the staff at Chanteclaire Farm! From taking care of behind the scenes wedding planning, booking the DJ & florist, the meal & cake selection, & anything else you need, I highly recommend!!” — Kristin D. (September 2022)

“Our daughter got married at Chanteclaire. We could not have asked for a more beautiful day. Everything went well from beginning to end. The food was delicious. The flowers were gorgeous. The music was great and everybody has told me what a wonderful time they had! Everybody was easy to work with and very pleasant. I have nothing other than positive vibes!! We had so much fun! Thank you guys. It was everything my daughter dreamed it would be and more. Don’t stop doing what you’re doing. It works very well. 5 thumbs up.” — Joanne (June 2021)

“Leigh and her staff were well organized and paid attention to every detail. She made the day stress free, not only for the bride and groom, but the entire wedding party and their families. She kept the event in time, tracked the weather, and found the window between rain drops to make our outdoor wedding and photos possible. She managed the decor, music, and timing appear to occur effortlessly. I would highly recommend her and her staff to make wedding dreams become the reality and life long memories for any bride! We were blessed to have this special lady become a part of our special day.” — Emily M. (August 2020)

“Our experience was wonderful!! Chanteclaire truly made all our dreams come true. Which was a tall order in the mist of the pandemic this year . They were so accommodating with moving our date and making sure we followed all Covid guidelines. The day went off without a hitch and we couldn’t have been happier!” — Bee L. (July 2021)

“A wedding at Chanteclaire is more than a few hour rental at a venue with your family and friends. It is a weekend long celebration with vendors who care about you and your guests from the minute you arrive. We loved our wedding experience at Chanteclaire, especially during the pandemic, but did not realize just how much this very capable and experienced team did to make the wedding day so perfect. The team at Chanteclaire goes above and beyond to make sure you are able to envision your perfect day through your time planning together, your tasting, and at the rehearsal the night before. There was absolutely no stress (besides COVID) while planning. Through what was supposed to be stressful, Leigh and Haleigh made every minute fun. Two years later, we just planned my sister's wedding and that is when we realized just all that Leigh and Haleigh did to make the wedding at Chanteclaire so perfect! Their recommendations based on their vast experience contribute to a flawless wedding day/week-end. They are kind and thoughtful and so very helpful! I also have to shoutout the most incredible kitchen team. They did a wonderful job preparing our AMAZING food, helping with dietary restrictions, and providing us the BEST wedding cake we have ever eaten. To end our wonderful day, we were able to host an after party bon-fire with snacks and drinks, and stay on the property in a large house and cabin. The memories that we have from our amazing day will truly last forever. I can't thank the Chanteclaire team enough for everything they did to make our day perfect. I highly recommend Chanteclaire!” — Megan O. (August 2021)
