Solitude Links Golf Course & Banquet Center

If you are thinking about getting married at Solitude Links Golf Course and you are reading this then it is your sign to book it because they are AMAZING!

I had a really hard time finding a venue. We are on the larger size of our guest list with 300 people invited (260 attended). I knew I wanted a location that felt outdoors and beautiful- not a box with four bare walls - and I was limited with my options. My now husband loves to golf this course and suggested that we take a look. I originally counted out a golf course with price and the general vibe but, wow did this place change my mind.

When we met with Jennifer we quickly discovered all of the amazing things that this venue has to offer! The hall itself has all its windows creating a 180 view of the course and its beautiful lakes. There is an elevator that accommodates disabled and elderly family members. It has gorgeous hardwood floors and chandeliers that make it feel cozy and natural. The outdoor ceremony location is under a Gazebo and on the water that brings in a touch of the water. For extra space guests can watch from the balcony above which we had plenty of people do and they said it was a wonderful spot! The entrance of this venue is a beautiful corridor that is full of mirrors. We rented two barrels from Dakota (another AMAZING piece of our day) that created an outdoors vibe for our seating chart to sit on. We also rented a backdrop from him that was easy to set up and payment as a preferred vendor with solitude links. For all of our vendors we used what they had as preferred and it was SO accurate. On site there are two suites, one a little smaller than the other. Both have bathrooms in them and the bridal party can have access to them all night. It was PERFECT for me and my 8 bridesmaids, 3 mothers, a flower girl and an aunt to get ready in! We got there at 8 am along with the hair and makeup team. From there Jennifer, Dakota, Bre and the entire team helped us stay on track! They were there to literally coordinate the ceremony, guide me to my photos and assure I was having the BEST time. From the time we walked off from the ceremony we had our own personal waitress that made sure we always had what we needed!

As for the food, it was delicious! We were in an off season package so we had the duet plates and ate the mushroom chicken and hibachi salmon. Everyone raved about it! I personally had the best chicken and tenders of my life because I eat like a child! The bartenders were so kind and polite. Unfortunately I had a family member that was not behaving appropriately. They worked with professionalism and tried to make sure I didn’t know! I loved that they just wanted to make sure I had a good time but, we let them know our appreciation as everyone deserves respect! I know we went through a lot and kept them busy!! Jennifer was so cool and calm when she brought it up and helped me work through the problem without feeling even a bit flustered. She was like a wedding mom and truly is an expert! At the end of the night our lead, Bre, was able to help save my wedding cake so that we could pick it up from them in the morning as our hotel did not have a large cake or freezer to save it. We picked it up the next morning, no problem at all!

Our guests began arriving about 3:30 or so with the ceremony at 5. It was a very beautiful location that made it so waiting was not an issue as there is so much to see! The ceremony was very quick and led right into the cocktail hour and then the wedding festivities. I cannot express enough how smoothly the entire thing went and how much longer we wish it could last! I was so sad to board our shuttle and call it a night. We have a few friends getting married at this location soon and we CANNOT wait to enjoy this location as a guest and truly take it in from the other perspective as we have only heard good things….we have genuinely had multiple people say “I am not joking that was the best wedding we have ever gone to” and I am not joking when I say it is highly in part of Solitude Links!
