We booked this place for our daughter's sweet 16th bday. Beautiful place hidden gem away from all the noise. Great, helping workers who managed every detail with smile the entire time. Everything was set up better than we expected and all the credit goes to Andrea. She took care of decorations, food, cake from her bottom of her heart. All the guests were impressed with their service and the place. So glad we booked this place and my daughter we so happy. We recommend this memorable, unique venue without a doubt.

Nice venue for young couples to be married in, and very reasonable. They take what they do seriously and have worked with us along the way. They definitely do what they do from the heart.

Cute historic home to have events or weddings in. Original hardwood floors are beautiful as well as any original door and window hardware. The antique furniture is beautiful and the 2nd house for the bride and groom to get ready in is pretty adorable

We got married at the Surrey House and Gardens this spring - what a lovely, historic venue for a small wedding! Everything about the experience was wonderful. Cheryl and Carol were so responsive and thoughtful the entire time, and everything went extremely smoothly on the day of the wedding. We had the Surrey House cater as well, and food was excellent. They worked with me on making everything exactly the way we wanted. Thank you!

My husband and I got married at The Surrey House and Gardens in late March 2015, and we had a wonderful experience. The food was delicious, the service was even better. Carol and Cheryl were so nice and patient and very comfortable to talk to, unlike other places we looked at for the venue. We had our wedding ceremony outside, the weather was perfect, the reception was in & outside and it worked out perfectly.

We had about 115 people attend our wedding but we never felt cramped. The transitioning was done so quickly by the staff the guest didn't even notice. We had the chicken dinner and it was so tasty. The wedding cakes were great, and we had a guitar shaped grooms cake, and fondant lace around our wedding cake, the detailing was great. Overall, I recommend the surrey house for a great venue.
