I worked at Berkeley Hills Country Club last December for an intimate wedding of 30 guests.
One of the biggest challenges at the initial planning stage was for me to find a venue with less than 2 months' notice that will not feel overwhelming for this 30-person guest list as well as ensuring that my client would be able to meet the food and beverage minimum imposed by most venues for banquets.
Berkeley Hills offered us tremendous flexibility for last minute booking and the space was just right for my client's intimate guest list!
Since the wedding took place 2 days after Christmas, the club was already decorated:
On top of that, Berkeley Hills offered their house centerpieces if you choose to use them. Customization of the house centerpieces would have been easy if one wants to add flowers to it but we chose to keep it as it was:
The ballroom can accommodate 100 guests on round banquet tables. If the ballroom doors are opened, it can accommodate an additional 50 guests but we closed the doors for this particular wedding. Berkeley Hills offers a choice of silver or gold chiavari chair. We chose silver chiavari chairs to keep within the winter theme.
The food quality at Berkeley Hills was also top notch. We choose to serve a sit down two course lunch and here is the salad presentation but the entree was eaten before been captured on photo. :)
Other than catering and beverage, we were able to use any outside vendors we wanted.
We used The Baking Ground for the 2 tier wedding cake:
The bouquets were done by Peachtree Petals:
Complimentary champagne toast was included in the catering package and here is Berkeley Hills' amazing catering manager Ms. Angela Howard bringing some of the champagne out herself:
I totally enjoyed working with Ms. Howard for this wedding and I would not hesitate to bring another client back here for the quality service that they provided!
