5/5
Thinking about Plentywoods as your wedding venue? Think no more you’ve found THE ONE! When I tell you my experience with them was incomparable I mean it. I’ve broken it down into categories that were important to me when choosing so you can know how much thought went into building Plentywoods and providing their couples with the utmost care.
The staff/owners: Incredibly friendly and helpful, always available to answer all thousand of my questions! It’s a family affair with them and they TRULY care about their couples.
The venue itself: In a word? GORGEOUS. The interior was so carefully thought out and planned - they truly thought of every detail! From the color tones of the ceiling and wood to light fixtures and floors - every style of bride would be happy here, all the way from rustic to modern! My vibe was “boho ethereal” and the finishes of Plentywoods helped my vision come to life! One of my selling points was the upstairs double barn doors out onto the landing for the curved grand staircase that lended its way to the most amazing grand entrance into our first dance!
The sleek modern garage doors brought in plenty of light and versatility when it came to using the patio for happy hour. There were plenty of restroom stalls. Lots of great spaces for whatever table setups you have (cake, gifts, guest book, etc.)
The main hall itself is a beautiful setting for an indoor wedding or if you want an outdoor ceremony and indoor reception- that’s a great option as well! And having both options be just as beautiful was important to me planning an outdoor wedding in early November which had a high probability of rain.
The exterior/setting: Another selling point of this place is the views! You’ve got stunning panorama views of the Ozarks that are sure to wow in any season. Pick your backdrop because the options are limitless when it comes to where your outdoor ceremony will be! The building itself has so many entry points it’s amazing for setup/tear down and you can really tailor it to the kind of vibe you want.
The bridal suite: This was one of my MAJOR selling points! It was very important to me to have space for all my girls to be together plus several female family members. The shower being separate from the sink was awesome so that one person didn’t monopolize the bathroom. The other separate room within there came in clutch for privacy for my breastfeeding cousin (and then later to put her daughter down for a nap!) and also for my bridesmaids to lock me in when I needed to finish writing my vows! The room was bright and tall and had amazing natural light and the high up hooks were perfect for all our dresses! The vanities were bright with plenty of plugs and we were not lacking for seating in the room from the dining table and chairs to the vanity seats to the giant curved couch which was perfect for getting ready pictures!
Parking: Plenty!! And they had a separate driveway for coming vs going which was great! It is a slightly steep gravel road but no one really had issues!
Day of: They staff was there when I needed them and gone when I didn’t! Like little fairy’s just jumping in where they needed to be! The catering kitchen had plenty of space to hold everything/ keep warm for setup!
Miscellaneous Things Plentywoods Offers To Go Above And Beyond That I Now Realize Very Few Venues Actually Do: Ice machine (need I say more about this?) Rolling bar - put it wherever your vision is and no worries about renting one! Large rolling bar top height coolers - perfect for bottled water and sodas! Arbor options - beautiful handcrafted arbors. Multiple outdoor ceremony options (literally wherever you want to go). Indoor chairs and outdoors chairs. Multiple styles of tables including gorgeous decorative ones for the head table and/or entryway for gifts/guestbook. Plus so much more!!!
Im sure I could say much more but I’ll end with you will not be disappointed choosing Plentywoods!
TL;DR - Choose Plentywoods for a versatile venue, plenty of amenities, and top notch- Ritz level- care.
