10/10 recommend this venue. We had our wedding here on 08/12/23. It is hands down the most beautiful venue. There are cabins on site for friends or family to stay right there. This venue exceeded our expectations and we couldn’t have asked for more!

The Glenn Royal was a dream to work with and made planning our wedding super simple! Any questions we had they answered very promptly, if anything needed to be addressed they notified us with plenty of time. Their staff was fantastic the days before and the day of our wedding. We were told by so many of our guests that it was by far the coolest venue they have been to, between the layout of the grounds, the cabins, and having air conditioning in the building itself. Overall highly recommend!
