Need advice! Crest Hollow or Woodlands at Woodbury?
Hello ladies, I need your help! I'm planning a daytime wedding for Fall 2013 and I've visited so many wedding venues looking for 'the one.' I have seen 2 places that stand out: Crest Hollow Country Club and Woodlands at Woodbury. They are completely different feels, but I like them both. Here's why:
CREST HOLLOW: Pros: -Love the beachy grounds & outdoor ceremony space -plentiful options for cocktail hour & entree -rooms are big, guests will not feel cramped -for daytime wedding, i think we can close blinds in the room to create a more nighttime ambiance Cons: -rooms have an outdated feel (pink carpets, chairs are not great, curtains seem old) -There can be 3 other events at the same time -if the weather is bad that day, all will be held inside in outdated spaces and I'm not sure how i feel about that.
WOODLANDS: Pros: -Beautiful mansion -One wedding at a time -Great reviews on food Cons: -Dance floor seems small -Ballroom is a bit narrow, will guests feel like they're stuck in the back of the room with mediocre view of dance floor? -Pass golfers on the way in -For daytime weddings, don't know if we can close curtains to create a nighttime ambiance
If you've been to both places and can provide any advice, please let me know. Thanks, and good luck with your planning!

We booked with CHCC, but recently went to a wedding at The Woodlands. I think there is a large price difference for one. The Woodlands was really intimate and beautiful, and the food really was pretty good. The dance floor was able to hold a lot of people, so I wouldn't worry about that. We were placed at one of the last tables all the way in the back to the right. I totally missed the first dance, father/daughter dance, etc. CHCC has amazing grounds, but I would love it if we had one a one wedding venue. I wouldn't change our choice for the world. If you have ANY questions, FM me!

Biased but totally the Woodlands... Amazing atmosphere, food, decor and you don't compete with anyone else's wedding!

The Woodlands was our runner up choice. FH and I didn't want to have the reception where more then one wedding was going on which was why CHCC wasn't a top choice. However, I do think the grounds of CHCC were really beautiful and the RH rooms were huge and spacious.
