Welcome to Chanteclaire Farm.

We’re an all-inclusive,

rustic yet elegant

wedding venue

nestled in a valley

AT Deep Creek Lake.

At Chanteclaire we have reimagined the wedding experience.

We believe that your engagement should be spent celebrating and bonding with each other, not drowning in wedding planning.

We believe your wedding should be a retreat that’s close enough to home to drive but far enough from home to truly get away and spend time with your loved ones.

We believe, most importantly, that you should fully experience your wedding day without the stress that comes with playing the role of Event Director.

Our planning process makes all the enjoyable tasks fun, minimizes the stressful tasks, and takes as much tedium away as possible.

Our secret sauce (besides the roux we put on chicken) is that, by becoming experts at every piece of the wedding puzzle, we have achieved a level of flow and ease that other venues struggle to provide.

We are the triple threat of the wedding industry - experts in planning, catering, cakes, florals, music, and so much more.

Our staff will provide such great personal care that you will be able to relax, knowing that you and your wedding are being cared for by the best in the business.

 

At a great wedding your team behind the scenes knows:

  • that some frosting will melt and collapse at certain times of year

  • that your DJ’s knowledge of wedding flow and people skills are more important than his/her mixing skills

  • that your florals should not only be stunning and exactly your style, but also expertly treated to last for many days, not just a few hours

  • that food should be cooked onsite and served just off the grill/out of the oven

  • that your decor design should include flawless tablescapes

  • that the venue has no hidden costs, such as $0.50 per coffee cup or a huge end-of-night bar bill

  • that some photographers stay on schedule and dress well for the wedding and others will leave their duffle bags lying all around the venue grounds where guests are trying to mingle

  • that there can be stress points for guests and situations in which mood can drop and can't be easily picked up

  • that your Maid of Honor should give a toast that is warm and touching rather than an endless story of your private memories no other guests understand

  • that sometimes you need to stand your ground with family if you choose not to invite children

  • that developing a seating chart can be very stressful

  • that it is important to be able to cull your invite list so you can actually afford this thing

  • that sometimes you need to to convince anyone investing in this event why they should gladly spend the money

  • and countless other things we have dealt with before. 

We are passionate about

throwing great weddings.

Giving that experience

to kind, interesting couples

is what fulfills us.
