Orchard Ridge Country Club

Orchard Ridge Country Club is a beautiful wedding venue!  Some of my very favorite wedding images come from there!  I contacted Tricia at Orchard Ridge to get information straight from the source!  “Orchard Ridge Country Club is open for members and to the public, to utilize our banquet facility.”  Therefore,  you do not need to be a member of the country club to hold your event at their facility.

Ideal Venue   

Tricia of Orchard Ridge County Club had this to say about their facility as a local event venue.

 “Whether you are planning a small intimate event for 10 or a lavish reception for 300, you will find the atmosphere of our Clubhouse the ideal venue for all events including, business meetings, graduations, showers, wedding ceremonies and receptions and much more. Our staff at Orchard Ridge Country Club enjoys what they do. When you have a team that cares it makes all the difference, thus lessens the worry of wedding planning, and easily tailors to our guest dream of nuptial perfection.”  

 

I love Orchard Ridge for weddings, because both bridesmaids and groomsmen can get ready onsite, always a plus when planning a photo friendly timeline.   The bridesmaids have a spacious getting ready area!  A sitting area on one end perfect for getting ready pictures with your girls!

A large bank of mirrors on the opposite end that allows for several people to hair and make-up done at once.  The beautiful wooden storage cabinets give plenty of room to hang the dresses until they are worn.

 

 

And of course a full length mirror so everyone can make sure they are looking their wedding day best!

 

Gorgeous Scenery

I love, love, love the area at Orchard Ridge Country Club for wedding party and bride and groom portraits!  As Tricia put it,

“Orchard Ridge Country Club is the perfect location when looking for a stunning scenery. Our veranda overlooking the 18th hole is considered to be one of the best views in Fort Wayne. Orchard Ridge Country Club is the perfect location when looking for a stunning backdrop. The breath taking views of the professionally manicured golf course, the quaint covered bridge, and numerous water features throughout the property, you simply fall in love with the scenery.” 

The beautiful trees and lush green grass are the perfect backdrop for portraits.  I have to say,  I loved the ride on the golf cart to capture the bride and groom portraits near the covered bridge.

 Ceremony

The ceremony area is lovely as well.  The  veranda overlooking the 18th hole is considered to be one of the best views in Fort Wayne.  The veranda allows plenty of room for your guests and with the beautiful backdrop of the golf course.

 

Reception

The spacious reception area will easily accommodate all your guests and leave plenty of room for dancing.    Tricia shared how dedicated the Orchard Ridge staff is to their guests, as well as what is included in their wedding package.

“The Catering Manager and Banquet Team are committed to accommodating most request throughout the planning stage. Our Executive Chef Cory and his culinary team are able to customize our menu and fit guest needs. There’s no addition charge for dietary restriction needs.

These items are included with our wedding package room rental.
