The food and service was excellent. My guests loved the meals and their was plenty of items to choose from. The staff was very accomondating and you only had to ask once for something and it was taken care of. Great job.

Our wedding at Woodwinds is something we will always treasure. The grounds our beautiful for outside pictures. The staff was always around to make sure our guests were never empty handed during cocktail hour and made sure the buffet line moved smoothly so no one was waiting long. The staff was professional, pleasant and always asking if we needed anything. The appetizers and food were wonderful. When we first started planning our wedding the most important things we wanted was great food, great DJ and a great place to have a big party and we got it all at Woodwinds. If you want great food, great service and beautiful place for your occaison, Woodwinds is the place.Chris and Tom

During our planning process Scott and Josh were both great. They answered all of our questions from begining to end. And the venue itself is absolutely beautiful. We had a christmas wedding and the place was beautifully decorated for christmas inside and out. And the food was outstanding.

The WoodWinds was a beautiful location for our ceremony and reception, there was even another wedding going on at the same time and you couldn't even tell! Everyone was very professional!

The first day of the rest of my life began with our ceremony in a church in Madison. From there, our guests and ourselves proceeded to Woodwinds in Branford. From the moment we arrived until the moment we left (one hour later than expected), our experience was top notch. Our limo was late, but the staff at Woodwinds continued to serve us drinks and make us feel at home, despite the fact that they had another reception following ours...they never rushed us or gave us any inclination that we had to leave. Scott, the coordinator, was there from beginning to end. Not only to make our guests comfortable, but to make sure we had food, drink, and even breath mints!! He was like a choreographer of the russian ballet - infallable!! This was, by far, the best experience I could have ever imagined!! And for those of you price shopping....they were the least expensive in the general vicinity, but provided the service of a hall charging almost twice what they did. I would recommend Woodwinds - and Scott - to anyone looking to find a reception hall!!

The WoodWinds provided a beautiful ceremony site, delicious food and prompt service. Scott is an amazing coordinator, he went above and beyond the call of duty. Our guests are still raving about this place as one of the best weddings they've ever attended! I highly recommend WoodWinds and would book another event here in a heartbeat.

The food was an absolute show stopper. Three months later I am still hearing about it. I dream of the risotto. Scott was unbelievable.

Working with Woodwinds, Scott, and the rest of the staff was a pure pleasure. From day 1 when we booked the venue all of our questions where answered in a timely manner and all of our concerns melted away. The venue was set up beautifully and the ceremony and reception ran like clock-work. It was the little things that really made our day special. When the bridesmaids and I got to the bridal suite to get ready they brought us wine. When we had our ceremony they were there to direct everyone on exactly where to go. Even when we were cutting the cake Scott was there with a helping hand (and a bib to prevent my dress from getting dirty). The food was absolutely incredible and the guests can not stop raving about it. We can't thank them enough for making our day so wonderful!

The Woodwinds was wonderful, the wedding planner that my husband and I met with was Scott. I am unsure of his last name and I know that The Woodwinds now has a new owner since November 2006 so I am not certain if he is still there. Truthfully, he was the best asset to our wedding day. The day ran so smooth, he even bustled my dress!!! my mother could not find the hooks, and Scott had a flashlight in his mouth and was under my dress finding the little hooks. Everytime I turned around and my drink was even close to empty-Scott had a fresh drink in his hand for my husband and I. After my husband stuffed wedding cake up my nose, Scott had a mirror and napkin ready to go so i could touch up quickly---amazing timing. Scott played a huge part of our wedding day, and i would recommend The Woodwinds to anyone, if Scott is still there.

The Woodwinds was very professional compared to the other venues we had previously visited. They had a number of linen colors available as well as a couple included centerpieces. The place was just renovated a couple of months before our wedding and it turned out beautiful! The inside has two huge mohagany bars and both ballrooms were redecorated with a simple tan carpet and marble dance floor. It was much prettier than the floral carpeting and shiny laminate flooring once there! The staff was great and the FOOD was amazing. Everyone still talks about the prime rib. We had no tasting, but it worked out ok!
