Cuvier Club

If you are looking for the BEST venue and catering company for your wedding, this is the place. We are so grateful to have been able to plan our wedding with the most passionate and dedicated workers in the event planning business. Our wedding was absolutely perfect from planning to the actual day!! Anders Cueva was the most personal, warm and thoughtful person from the start of our process to the very end. She guided us through any question or uncertainty that we had about our wedding, allowing us to build the perfect wedding we envisioned. All of our expectations were continuously met, and consistently worked to make sure if there were any (which there were barely any) "bumps in the road" that we could pivot together for an even better idea for our wedding. Anders is the type of worker that will do everything she can to make sure you are happy throughout your entire planning process. The wedding coordinator provided to us by the company was Federico Tomas, a person who excels at being the absolute best at this job. Federico remained in constant communication with us during our planning process, offering us the best ideas and collaboration for our big day. On our wedding day, he was an amazing source of support that was never too far away, making sure we were having the best time. Not only did he make sure we were having a magical day, but all of our guests (138 to be exact) were well taken care of and having an amazing experience! On top of these two incredible workers, was our event captain David and his amazing team of servers during our wedding night. Everyone we spoke to raved about the kindness of every server they communicated with and how attentive Federico was with all the steps of the wedding event. There was not a single hiccup or delay during the event. With all this wonderful service, the food served was out of this world. Our chefs Kyle & Kody serve nothing but the best food, and ensured that even our guests with dietary restrictions were taken care of. The Cuvier Club by Wedgewood Weddings gave us the most perfect wedding. They offer nothing but the best in all corners of the planning process and leave an everlasting impression on everyone that attends their events. Working with this venue and staff should be #1 on your list if you are looking for the wedding of your dreams.

Best wedding team in the area!! In a crisis moment, Mandi stepped up, took charge and pulled together a beautiful event at a moments notice. She was calm and reassuring the entire time. I can not thank Mandi, Meghan and their entire team enough. I would highly recommend this venue!! The garden area is precious. The food was delicious, and the team and venue were organized. Many thanks to you all! Our family is singing your praises!

Thank Cuvier Club for making our dream wedding come true! Words can't begin to explain my sincere gratitude I have for the Cuvier Club and their amazing Team led by Petr Trebin. Everything was perfect and amazing! From the minute I met the Team at Cuvier Club, I knew it was a fit for what we were looking for. They were all so organized and accommodating throughout the entire planning processes and throughout the wedding and reception. They all set my mind and ease and made what could have been a very stressful time into an experience I could enjoy and appreciate. Petr, the Team at Cuvier and their group of vendors did such and amazing job transforming the event space and the entire wedding into something magical. Everyone was so fun to work with and was so professional and their attention to detail is what made everything perfect. They are all such talented people! The food and table service was also impeccable. I asked several of our guest what they thought about the food and everyone had such great feedback. Thank you again Team Cuvier Club for making our wedding day better than we could have imagined. You guys are all amazing! These picture tell a much better story than my review ever could!

Contrary to the many great reviews, our experience was far from perfect. In the end Cuvier pulled through but it wasn’t before lots of arguing and escalations to their management. I would not recommend booking their all inclusive option especially if your venue is not Cuvier Club. I will say some of the problems likely stemmed from the fact that we had an off-site venue. Others happened because we had a poorly put together quote/contract. Their all inclusive package includes a 30 day coordination. In reality this is almost useless, since you'll want to get everything lined up way before that. We ended up basically coordinating everything ourselves, including signing and negotiating contracts, doing venue walk throughs, keeping track of all items we needed to do, etc. Maybe if you left everything up to the last minute their coordination could be useful. The day of coordination is really only coordinating Cuvier vendors, and it does not include coordination of the wedding day. We ran very late because we did not have a coordinator helping with photos or keeping us on track before the ceremony. The included vendors, with the exception of the cake place, all tried to upcharge us. They did this via various means. Some flat out told us it would cost extra money, like one of the DJs we spoke with, since we had 2 setups, which is supposed to be included but is not actually, others tried to add gas surcharges (which we successfully fought with Cuvier), and others told us that we basically wouldn't have good service if we didn't add another photographer outside of what was included. One photographer essentially told us that they preferred we didn't go with them since the negotiated rates cuvier pays are so low they'd be able to find a better gig. Anders, the individual who booked our quote, did an awful job, and many of the problems stemmed from this. She advertised it as an “all inclusive package”, but we found there were so many charges on top, not only by the external vendors, but by cuvier itself. Even when everything was figured out, in the end they fell short delivering the following items during the wedding: * special meals (vegetarians, GF..etc) were not served to the guests that needed them, but rather they wandered around from station to station finding out they couldn’t eat what was being offered - we expected plated meals for those guests. * Appetizers for the guests that arrived late were not served because they came in after welcome hour. * They did not leave the leftover food even though this is something we asked for * The bar surprised us by serving hard alcohol straight * They ran out of champagne glasses; and the bar failed to make our two special drinks that involved mulling mint and using fever tree mixers. * Lastly they did not follow cake cutting instructions, so guests were not able to try the different flavors. Nothing truly awful but far from the perfect we expected with the costs of a wedding event. The positives: The food was good and they did not run out (which was a concern). The vendors we ended up hiring through Cuvier were awesome.

This was the perfect venue for our wedding! It is gorgeous and yes, simple inside. But we had the best time and the wedding was gorgeous! I highly recommend a reception at the wedding bowl. But the courtyard is also stunning. The service by everyone here was incredible and OMG the food was so good! It felt so amazing to get feedback from everyone about how yummy the food was!
