We loved having our ceremony at Arbor Manor! The location is tucked in a convenient location with a beautiful garden in back that makes you feel like you have left the rest of the world. The owner was very kind and helped the day run so smoothly. We felt as like Mike (the owner) went WAY above and beyond what he had to do. He helped the wedding run so smoothly, and everyone loved him (even my friends were like so, the owner of this venue is literally the coolest?!). It was a great experience and by far the best value (straight forward prices, no extra fluffy fees for turning on the damn light lol). We couldn't be happier with our photos and their wonderful backdrop. More...

My Wife and I got married here in June and I honestly can’t recommend this place enough. The Arbor Manor is the best value in the valley. The venue is tucked back away from the road with a gorgeous garden area that is overgrown with beautiful foliage that makes it look amazing. Mike, the Owner, is awesome to work with. He spent the wedding making sure every little thing was in order and that everything went smoothly so that we didn’t have to worry about a thing. The wedding went smoother than my wife and I could have ever hoped for. Mike was friendly and helpful and made it so we were able to just enjoy our big day and we couldn’t thank him enough. We spent months looking at so many different venues all across the state and we choose the Arbor manor because they didn’t nickel and dime you, didn’t charge for every little thing, and they didn’t have all these little fees, they were upfront and transparent about everything and bent over backward to make sure everything was the way we wanted it. I’d give this place 10 out of 10 stars if I could. Do yourself a favor and at least take a tour and meet with Mike before you make a final decision on a venue. More...

Mike is absolutely great!My husband and I are celebrating our 10 year anniversary and he has made our experience so much fun. When we first saw this place back in November it was not looking so good since he was doing some renovations but we decided to go for this place because of Mike. He has been very helpful with everything and He has done an awesome job with the renovations now this place looks amazing! I’m sure he will do an amazing job on our special day. Thank you Mike!

Hands down use Arbor Manor. The care, kindness, knowledge, decor, venue, and included options (like chiavari chairs, handmade centerpieces and tabletop linens included in the rental), are unbeatable; but the service tops it all. Mike and Valerie TRULY want this to be your most special day, and they  make it happen, no matter what. They are not just owners or planners, they are curators of happiness and the highest caliber soothsayers. I would not be surprised if they were PhD's of Psychology; the way they handled every detail was absolutely flawless . Every time I stressed about something, Mike stepped in and calmly took that stress away. Valerie corrected my biggest mistake: calculating bar-time and complying with Utah law, as well as making sure the procession was perfect. She even got down to picking sticks and leaves out of my dress before I passed through the gate. They were gracious, methodical and happy to help with all the issues we encountered being clueless, out of state guests.On top of all that, they spent time interacting with our guests instead of disappearing and waiting for it to be over. I received MANY comments from guests on how wonderful they were, the most glowing of which came from those in our families with special needs. When I told Mike I was "done making decisions," halfway through dinner, he laughed with kindness, promptly recruited my maid of honor and made the rest of the night carry on as if it had been planned down to the second.There is a special place our hearts for Mike & Valerie, I cant recommend them enough.

We booked our wedding date before Mike and Valerie became the new owners and they were so dang nice with switching over and keeping us informed with what was going on. The renovations they made are just gorgeous. The gazebo in the back is simply stunning. Mike and Valerie was super responsive and so helpful and our day went so wonderfully! We'll definitely book the venue again for any other big event we might have! More...

A quiet, secluded wedding venue with an overgrown back patio perfect for wedding pictures and a truly garden feel for your event. The host is incredibly accommodating and really cares about your event. The location is a little tricky to find, but signs and a good map will get you there. Highly recommend! More...

One of my best friend got married here this weekend and it was not only beautiful, but so much fun. The owner is one of the kindest, easiest to work with people. I’ve been married and I know how stressful weddings can be, but they make sure it happens without a hitch. He makes you feel so at ease and in charge at the same time. If you’re thinking about getting married here, just stop thinking and do it. More...

05/13/2019 - If i could give 10 stars I would.. for anyone reading reviews. Please don't be put off by the older reviews. Mike and his wife bought this place about a year ago, and updated the bridal suite and the main room . They are also updating the grooms suite. So I talked to mike on the phone early in the day to go over some requirements we have for our wedding which won't be till next year. Mike was so awesome on the phone and personal. I made a appt that evening to do a tour. I was really excited about it and once I walked in and after about 10 minutes of talking to mike i was sold, ready to put my deposit down right there.. The place is beautiful. The outside area is beautiful, he even showed us the baby birds. Not so many words he told me that it is my wedding and I drive the car, he will of course caution me on speed bumps, and pot holes. But I drive.. How awesome is that.. Mike is so amazing!!! I am so excited not nervous to have my wedding here.. I love that I can text him with any questions, and he will respond as quick as possible. I love how much he wants to get to know the bride and groom.. I love that he is so open minded!! So i know that some reviews are written by employees to boost the venue.. I promise I am not a employee!!! This review is 200% accurate.. Seriously If you are having any type of event seriously just call Mike.. You will totally fall in love with this place!! If i could get married to the same man 10 different times each time would be here.. I will write another post after I get married.. but i know that it will be awesome!! More...

This beautiful little gem is tucked away in the heart of West Valley, because of the address I was a little sceptical but this venue is wonderful! They owners take pride in this and it shows. Mike was there to help every step of the way and was so welcoming and social. You can tell this is more than a job for them, they go out of their way to make every detail perfect! More...

I met with Mike a couple of days ago, I am a MOH and my best friend from out of state is shopping for a venue in Utah. The customer service is INCREDIBLE. I was very surprised at the flexibility he offers as well as the price for the services. He truly cares about his customers and is more interested in making events perfect for them rather than squeezing every penny out of people.Mike is more than a great business owner, he is just an amazing person all around!I felt so welcome and comfortable speaking with him. He truly makes you feel like family the second you walk through the door. I would highly recommend working with him! More...

We had our wedding here and it was absolutely magical. The venue itself is charming and beautiful. We were able to use the outdoor garden for the ring ceremony and then dance in the grand ballroom under a big chandelier that made us feel like royalty. The price is fair, especially compared to other venues.But most of all, the customer service is outstanding. Mike was so great at meeting with us and making sure it was how we wanted it. He was awesome as we had to change plans shortly before the day of and we figured it out together in no time. He responded promptly to our questions via text or email. And you can tell they really enjoy being in this business. Booking through Arbor Manor definitely took the stress and pressure off of us. More...

I attended a wedding there tonight and Mike and Valerie were AMAZING hosts. What they didn't know was yes, I was a photographer there to do a job but I was also a family friend. They were hospitable, punctual, and incredibly friendly and social. I felt like I really got a sense for how much they really love just making peoples days come true to the very best of their abilities, they wear all of the hats and do so with a smile on their face. I truly hope to shoot another wedding here just to work with them again. If you like their venue you will only love it after how you're treated and definitely recommend it after working at as a photographer, caterer, and bartender at many establishments. The grounds were beautiful and everything was very clean. Thanks for an amazing night. More...

We were able to enjoy our wedding and and did not have to worry about anything. The venue was beautiful it was exactly what we wanted and they made our ceremony absolutely beautiful, the scenery is one of the best things at the venue. I definitely recommend this venue, it does only seat 100 people so keep that in mind but over all I'm glad I had my reception and ceremony here. We planned our wedding in 3 weeks, and I'm so glad that they were able to work everything out for us, it was perfect. More...

We loved the way everything was set up, you really excelled with the decor. We had lots of feedback about how lovely it was and they loved the personal touches. I had a lot of people ask about how we found Arbor Manor. We appreciated the discounts we received too. The coordination with the cake and the flowers was superb. We loved how the flowers and cake turned out! The food was great, everyone loved it, but I did have some people comment about getting a small scoop of rice. Which when we saw that there was still a whole pan of rice leftover, it seems that there was room to give more than a small scoop. The really big issue was pertaining to music. We were all very disappointed that the music didn't go smoothly and we could barely hear any music if any was even playing during the reception, except for certain areas for the couple dance, parents dance and the cake cutting. People wanted to dance and music wasn't playing loud enough for that. I guess I could have said something, but I guess I thought we had gone over all that before. It was frustrating that for some reason my mp3 wasn't playing well on your player, even though I know it played well for us at home and in my car, through my car speakers. There were a couple issues with the microphone too. It didn't seem like very many of the guests either knew about the upstairs bathrooms. Hardly saw anyone making use of those. That could have been vocalized more clearly. There didn't need to be a long line waiting down stairs. Other than that, it went well. More...

Thanks to Chela with Arbor Manor, our wedding was by far the best day of my life. They allowed us to bring in outside vendors and created plenty of space for them (we had a taco truck and were worried about where they would have to set up, but the placement on Arbor Manor's part was perfect. ) We wanted our dogs to be part of the ceremony and they were more than accommodating to that as well. The set up for both the ceremony and the reception was beautiful and they handled the set up and take down, so we were free to mingle. They do require the use of their state certified bar tender, which was a bit pricey, however it was well worth it. They were professional in a fun way and made sure everyone had a great time. The whole process was much easier and way less stressful than I anticipated, and it was in huge part to Chela and the Arbor Manor staff. More...

Arbor Manor is a very cute reception center. We worked with Nikki, and she was AMAZING! So glad she was there! On the day of the wedding, things ran smoothly. The other staff that was there was really clueless and rather helpless, so it was good that Nikki was there to help guide them what to do. We used their food, which is good for in-house catered food, but it is pricey. I would probably cater elsewhere if I could do it again. But they are very flexible and wonderful to work with! More...
