Everything was PERFECT! Attention to detail and making sure they knew what I wanted was impecable!. We had a total of 18 including us and there were 5 staff to take care of us. Everything went very smoothly. Our guests loved the venue. It was beautiful...roses and candles every where, very romantic. From our first contact to the moment we left everyone we worked with was fantastic and sensitive to making sure our day went exactly as we wanted. Thoughout the planning for the wedding all of my friends said I was the most calm bride they ever saw...a big part of that was knowing I had great people helping me and taking care of so many of the details for me. Thank You ATSH You helped make our wedding a very special and unique event..not the same old same old. We could not have asked for better service Angela and Robert Gardiner April 9th 2012

Barbara and her staff were simply amazing! All of our guests were impressed with both the venue and the service. We would (and already have) highly recommend The School House to any couples looking for a unique venue for their special day. Natalie & Dave

Barb and Cam helped us create the most wonderful evening wedding. They were very accomodating. The atmosphere was very warm and romantic with beautiful floral and candle arrangements. Our guests thoroughly enjoyed the evening and we have highly recommended At The Schoolhouse to many of our friends. Thanks again Barb, Cam and the wonderful catering crew.

At the Schoolhouse provided an almost one-stop shop for our wedding. They supplied the venue, officiant, dealt with the catering, decor, and event management. This removed much of the stress of the actual event. The staff are knowledgeable, practical and very enthusiastic. The pricing was ideal for our budget conscious minds, and accomodated our 25 guests quite nicely. They also provided recommendations on the photographer who did a superb job, and was already familiar with the location and best placing for shots, this made the flow of the evening seem flawless, and never clunky or awkward. Nothing but good things to say about this venue and its staff. They made our wedding the event we wanted, while keeping the stress of the event off of us. Simply outstanding. Thanks!

At the Schoolhouse is a beautiful small venue that was perfect for the type of wedding we wanted. It was a joy to deal with professionals, who do this day in and day out, and handled all the details for us. We trusted their experience, and they delivered and went beyond what we had expected. Perfection for a no fuss, but classy wedding and reception. Thank you!

Thank you again “At the Schoolhouse” for the beautiful experience! The setting was beautiful, intimate and it added a sense of romance and love. For future brides, I would suggest getting the coordinator to help out while you are there. Carmel just took care of us and showed us what to do and where to go, before and after the ceremony. Having her there took a huge load off our shoulders, because without her there we would not have known what to do! Future brides and grooms, this is definitely the place to have your wedding!

Our August wedding was perfect - exactly as we dreamed it would be. This was a second wedding for both of us and we decided to follow our hearts instead of someone else's idea of what was proper. We wanted a casual time for friends and family to meet, share, visit and relax. We wanted our grandchildren to be there and to be free to run and enjoy. Our biggest concern was finding a venue that would allow for such a small, casual atmosphere. We found it At The Schoolhouse. They sat with us and said "What do you want? What do you not want? How do you see this playing out?" And they listened. Our guests loved it. We were able to relax and enjoy our own wedding. Thank you Barbara and thank you to all your staff. They did a wonderful job. Will I recommend this vendor? I already have.

I couldn't believe how easy they made my special day. I had a small budget with which to plan, and was going to do "city hall" wedding when I stumbled upon the Schoolhouse. It was a small fraction of money more, but I was able to include all of our special friends and family without feeling like we didn't have a wedding. The decor and ceremony were perfect. I had such an emotional response the first time walking in, I knew it would be a place I would remember forever.

Our wedding was absolutely perfect right down to the extra touches, we couldn't be happier with our experience with At The Schoolhouse! We would definately recommend this wedding venue to others and have already. :)

My husband and I cannot say enough positive things about the staff at The Schoolhouse. Everything was perfect in every which way. Barbara was fantastic as our officiant and we treasure the fact she really made my children part of the ceremony. Words can not describe how wonderful our wedding was and how many great reviews we received from our guests. It was a pleasure and a complete delight. We recommend at the Schoolhouse for anyone getting married.

We would recommend At the Schoolhouse as a complete one stop wedding venue of the highest quality. From our initial sight visit, to service recommendations (such as transportation and photographer), to planning with the coordinator, the team at the schoolhouse made us feel taken care of and special. On the wedding day - the location took my breath away - the accent decorations and colours were perfect, the setting was intimate, but allowed guests to move around inside and out. (we had 55 guests) The food presentation and quality was excellent, the servers polite, the officiant was warm and charming, and Carmel our coordinator was attentive and invisible - every time I needed something it would appear from booby-pins, to a glass of wine! A sincere thank you for to the staff, it could not have been a more perfect day for us and our family and friends. Yvonne and Marc 07-02-2011

The staff "At the School House" were warm, "real" people who genuinely wanted to make our wedding extra special... not just for the two of us, but for every family member and friend who joined us. Their attention to every small detail was astounding... especially for me since I am a perfectionist through-and-through! They thought of everything! The venue was romantic, inviting, and suited our needs and wants perfectly. The food was catered by "The Mixing Bowl", and it was delicious. Everyone commented on how delicious everything tasted. The wait staff was charming and polite and really took care of our guests. Barbara and Carmel helped make our dreams come true... a wonderful start to our "Happily ever after..." :) Thank-you!

Our experience with At The Schoolhouse far exceeded our expectations. From great ideas during the initial consultation to a perfect implementation on the day of the wedding the ATS crew never let us down. Everybody was impressed with the event, many commenting that it was the best they had ever been to. The food was excellent and accommodated some of our guests' special needs. Overall the event was extremely satisfying and we would highly recommend the At The Schoolhouse team and their unique and charming venue.

Myself and my wedding guests enjoyed a lovely reception after our Church ceremony at The Schoolhouse. Inside when we all arrived it was beautifully decorated and was such a perfect venue for our intimate wedding party of 25 guests. Our wedding guests were all thrilled at how lovely the Schoolhouse was inside, and the whole reception was wonderfully intimate and heartfelt. We heard so many positive comments from ALL of our guests! Barbara and the others at the Schoolhouse provided help and direction for myself and my husband on our wedding day and they also met with us a few months in advance to discuss our wishes and plans for how our big day should unfold. The team at the Schoolhouse were accommodating to the ideas my husband and I had prior to our wedding. The food served at our reception was great and our wedding cake was beyond delicious! It was heaven! Overall I would say we had a very positive experience with the Schoolhouse. It was the perfect venue for our intimate wedding and I would recommend it to all future brides! Many thanks to everyone at The Schoolhouse!! Zoe & Douglas McQueen

At The School House was absolutely amazing! They may look like a small venue, but the attention they give to each couple is exponential. I was warned about the stress of planning a wedding, but with At The Schoolhouse, everything was stress free. The staff was prompt in answering e-mails and any questions we had. Their caterer, florist and staff we approachable and felxible. We would like to say a heartfelt thank you to Barbara, Carmel, Ashley and Courtney, Lisa Craig for photography, Judy for the beautiful ceremony, and everyone else who decorated, served and cleaned up after us! I would recommend this beautiful venue to anyone!
