Your wedding day is one of the best days of your life—it’s the day you celebrate love, joy, and the beginning of a beautiful chapter. At Butler’s Courtyard, we believe that no bride, groom, or family member should have to worry about logistics, setup, or cleanup. Your focus should be on creating memories, not managing the event! That’s our job and we’re really good at it.
From the first moments of the day to the grand exit, we’re hard at work behind the scenes, ensuring everything runs flawlessly. With our full-service, all-inclusive wedding venue, you’ll enjoy a seamless experience that allows you to BE A GUEST AT YOUR OWN WEDDING. Here’s how we make your big day effortless and unforgettable, while delivering an elevated guest experience behind the scenes of a stress-free wedding day.
Setting the Stage for Your Special Day
At Butler’s Courtyard, your wedding day begins long before your guests arrive. While you’re relaxing with your wedding party or capturing those heartfelt getting-ready photos, our team is already prepping the venue to make sure everything looks perfect.
Our Setup Includes The Details
- Tables and Décor: We meticulously arrange tables, chairs, linens, centerpieces, and other details, following your custom plans discussed with our team in your wedding planning sessions. Every place setting reflects your chosen style, whether it’s simple elegance or bold seasonal flair.
- Floral and Aesthetic Touches: From aisle arrangements to head table décor, we work with our partnered vendors, or preferred vendors, to ensure every flower, candle, and accent piece is exactly where you envisioned.
- Vendor Coordination: We liaise with all your hired vendors—whether it’s the florist, caterer, DJ, or photographer—to make sure they know the schedule, layout, and points of access. That way, they can focus on delivering their very best.
This level of care ensures that when guests arrive, every detail mirrors your vision down to the last ribbon, creating the perfect stage for your celebration.
More Than Just Setup
One of the biggest differences with Butler’s Courtyard compared to DIY or non-inclusive venues is that we take care of everything. At many venues, the couple or their families are responsible for setup and breakdown—leaving them juggling tasks or scrambling to recruit help. With us, you won’t need to lift a finger. From the moment you walk in the doors, our team has already created the setting you’ve dreamed of, giving you and your loved ones the priceless gift of being present in the moment.
Flawless Execution of Your Day
Your wedding day should feel like it’s unfolding effortlessly—like magic. But behind the smooth flow of events is a dedicated and very experienced team managing every detail.
- Timeline Management: We keep track of the flow of events to ensure each part of your day happens on time, from your first look and ceremony to the cake cutting and private last dance. Think of us as the calm orchestrators behind the scenes, ensuring every note of your day plays out perfectly.
- Guiding the Ceremony: From lining up your bridal party to cueing the music and processional, our coordinators ensure that your ceremony flows seamlessly. You can trust us to handle everything, whether it’s adjusting trains or calming those pre-wedding jitters.
- Vendor Support: We are in constant communication with your team of vendors to coordinate speeches, lighting, and other critical moments, ensuring they align with your timeline.
Our oversight allows you to focus on what matters most—saying “I do” without distraction while your guests enjoy a stress-free and engaging experience.
Exceptional Service for Guests
Your wedding isn’t just a day for you—it’s a celebration that brings together everyone you hold dear. That’s why your guest experience is just as important to us as your own. Word of mouth is everything to a business like ours, and is why we’ve been so successful for over 2 decades. So your guests matter to us! Our team goes the extra mile to ensure that everyone—from closest friends to distant relatives—feels welcome, comfortable, and cared for.
- Greeting Guests: Upon their arrival, we’re there to guide your loved ones through the venue, helping them find their seats, offering assistance, and answering questions.
- Attending to Needs: Whether it’s an elderly guest who needs a little extra care or someone needing a bandaid, we’re on hand to ensure everyone is taken care of.
- Effortless Dining Experiences: Our servers and bartending teams work seamlessly to ensure everyone enjoys their meal and refreshments without long waits or confusion. From bussing tables to keeping drink stations stocked, we handle it all so your guests can relax and celebrate.
From the moment your guests arrive until the very end of the evening, we aim to deliver a five star, elevated experience that reflects the thoughtful care you’ve put into planning.
Catering & Bartending—Excellence at Every Step
At Butler’s Courtyard, dining and drinks are a memorable part of the celebration. Our expert food service and bartending team ensures every guest is served with efficiency and class.
- On-Time Service: Dinner is served exactly when planned—our team works behind the scenes to have everything ready for guests at just the right moment.
- Cocktails Flowing Smoothly: Our bartenders are not just there to serve drinks—they create an enjoyable experience, keeping lines to a minimum and ensuring the bar area is pristine.
- Tidy Dining Throughout: From bussing tables to refreshing buffet stations, our team discreetly cleans and tidies throughout the event, ensuring nothing disrupts the atmosphere. You don’t want stacks of dirty dishes in all your wedding photos do you? If you’re using a DIY venue that may mean asking a friend or family member to bus tables. That’s why you need to get married at Butler’s Courtyard so everyone can take the night off and be a guest and enjoy your wedding.
Details That Go Unnoticed by Design
While many of our efforts are visible, some of the most important tasks are the ones guests never notice—including trash removal, cleaning, and attending to any unexpected issues.
- Trash Removal: Cleanliness is essential for maintaining the beauty of your day. From emptying trash bins discreetly throughout the event, to ensuring used drinkware disappears elegantly, we handle it without guests ever noticing.
- Refreshing Restrooms: A behind-the-scenes clean and tidy crew ensures restrooms are always stocked and spotless throughout the event.
- Managing Spills: No need to panic if a glass of wine tips over or a drink gets knocked down on the dance floor. Our attentive team is always ready to handle any mishaps with speed and discretion. We’ll have the area cleaned up in no time, ensuring your guests stay safe and the celebration keeps flowing seamlessly. At Butler’s Courtyard, a spill is nothing more than a quick fix behind the scenes.
Our responsibility is to maintain both the gorgeous aesthetic and the impeccable functionality of your wedding so it stays unforgettable for all the right reasons. We’re very conscious of what the venue looks like at all times for the sake of your guests’ enjoyment and for the sake of your wedding photos.
When the Party Ends, We’re Just Getting Started
The end of your wedding doesn’t signal the end of our efforts. Long after the bubbles pop and the hugs goodbye have been shared, our team is still working to complete the cleanup and pack up your belongings.
- Post-Wedding Cleanup: We handle everything from gathering décor to sweeping, mopping, and taking out trash. Rest assured, you’ll never have to worry about who’s staying behind to clean like you would at a DIY venue. Ever been that friend that has had a blast, maybe a few drinks, and now you have to stay and clean up a wedding? Talk about a buzz kill! At Butler’s Courtyard your friends and family can leave on the high of all the fun they’ve had and not worry about the un-fun part of cleaning up the mess.
- Careful Packing: Gifts, extra items, and personal décor are packed up with care and entrusted to your chosen point of contact, so everything is safely returned to you that evening. We can usually get your stuff packed up and your family on their way within 20 minutes with no physical effort on their part.
