Weddings:

Making the wedding of your dreams a reality involves attention to detail, planning, and dedication. The results can be a truly joyful experience with memories that will last a lifetime. 

With our 65 years of experience, Tom’s Country Place can help you make this exciting moment in your life a wonderful experience for you, your partner, and your loved ones. Our dedication to providing traditional hospitality along with new and innovative culinary expertise sets us apart from other venues.

As a 3rd generation, family-owned and operated business, we are committed to continuing our tradition of first-class service for an unmatched experience. We look forward to helping you make your wedding a unique and memorable occasion.

Venue:

Tom’s Country Place opened in 1959. Sixty-five years and three generations later, our first-class facilities still offer timelessly elegant halls and award-winning gardens. 

Our recently renovated venue can accommodate 40-450 wedding guests. You may choose from our Oak Room, Gold Room, Gold & West Room, or Grand Ballroom (the combination of the Oak, Gold, and West Room). Each space features its own private entrance, restrooms, dressing room, and bar room to ensure your wedding is intimate and private. Each room’s decor is tastefully designed in a neutral tone to compliment your wedding decor and features fully dimmable golden chandeliers and wall-to-wall white tile dance floors.

Over 20 acres of park-like grounds provide plenty of gorgeous photo backdrops, including our gazebo and floral gardens. View our venue and beautiful landscaping under the Image Gallery.
