Forest Hall at Chatham Mills

Forest Hall at Chatham Mills was the perfect wedding venue for us! Aneesa is such a sweet person and was a joy to work with! From the beginning when we took our first tour to the day of our wedding, she was so helpful. She provided reassurance and suggestions when I needed them! The venue is stunning!! I was a bride on a budget and Forest hall enabled me to have the wedding of my dreams without breaking the bank! The atmosphere is so amazing that very little is needed in decor. A little goes a long way! The bridal suite was so comfortable and nice to spend time in as I prepped for my big day. We got so many compliments about the venue we chose. The hardwood floors, market lights, exposed brick, the farm tables, etc. made for such an amazing space! We did an outdoor ceremony by the big sycamore tree and it was beautiful! I could not be happier that we chose Forest Hall as our venue. I wish I could have my wedding again and again there... it was simply amazing!

Forest Hall was the first venue I checked out when we started planning; I had four other venue tours scheduled that week, but every tour after that just made me more certain that we’d already found our sweet spot. It checked every box we had and others we hadn’t even thought about yet: lots of big beautiful windows to let in natural light, romantic market lights for after dark, separate spaces for both ceremony and reception, gorgeous indoor AND outdoor space, fabulous farmhouse tables and chairs – the list goes on. The place gave me butterflies. Another important detail – the venue manager, Aneesa, is probably the sweetest and friendliest human being you’ll ever meet. I had a lot of questions as this was the beginning of our planning process, and she was amazingly helpful from the get-go. She positively exudes enthusiasm and a genuine desire to help you have the best possible experience – not just on your wedding day, but throughout the process of planning for it. After we booked, I started following the Forest Hall Instagram, and it was evident that Aneesa and her team absolutely pour themselves into every wedding, and into making this venue the best it can be. There were ongoing improvements leading up to our wedding (a dimmer for the market lights, newly sanded and stained farm tables), which just made me more excited and confident in our choice. I’ve been gushing about Forest Hall since we booked it and haven’t stopped even now that that wedding is over. In fact, my new sister-in-law and her fiancee loved it so much that they booked it for their wedding in May. We can’t wait to celebrate love and family all over again in this magical place!

Beautiful wedding venue with the ability to fully customize your day through their many indoor/outdoor options. Love that the space gives couples the option to have everything from getting ready through to reception hosted on site. Aneesa and her Forest Hall team are the best and go above and beyond to serve all their couples!

We had our dream wedding at Forest Hall! The space is gorgeous and the staff can accommodate pretty much anything you can think of. The historic space is beautiful in all of our photos and decor was easy because the space itself is already beautiful. They have an on-site caterer - 39 West, making it easy to check that off your list. Our guests can't stop talking about our wedding!

Forest Hall is a vision of rustic, industrial, romance - full of natural light, exposed beams, and weathered bricks that create an amazing atmosphere for events and weddings. I've had the chance to photograph events in this space on multiple occasions now, and am always floored by not only the warmth of the light, but the incredible warmth of the owner, Aneesa.

Every wedding, every photo shoot, every event - she and her team are so kind, professional, conscientious, and thoughtful. The attention to detail and the dedication to serving their clients is unparalleled, and whatever the occasion that brings you to Forest Hall - you will leave with beautiful memories, stunning photographs, and feeling just like family.

We extend our sincerest gratitude for the exceptional service and wonderful food you provided at our prom. Your attention to detail and commitment to excellence truly elevated our event, leaving a lasting impression on all our students. From the exquisite presentation to the delightful flavors, every aspect of the dining experience exceeded our expectations. Thank you for your unwavering dedication to ensuring our prom was a memorable and unforgettable occasion. Your contributions played a pivotal role in making our event a resounding success. We are immensely grateful for your partnership and look forward to the opportunity to work with you again in the future.

Forest Hall at Chatham Mills was a beautiful backdrop for our daughter's wedding on December 8. The bridal suite and grooms lounge are each the perfect location to get ready and relax for the big moment. The aesthetic of the rooms used for the ceremony and reception are absolutely stunning and perfect for any style of wedding. If you are looking to have your wedding (or any occasion, really) in a gorgeous, yet affordable location, Forest Hall is your place!

We learned of Forest Hall from my MIL who had gone to a wedding there. When we got engaged we went for a tour and booked! They gave us a first responder discount, which was incredibly thoughtful. They also told us that they were renovating their bridal suite! The price point of the venue was perfect and the included chairs and gorgeous farm tables makes it even better. There are beautiful market lights that add the perfect ambiance to the space. The huge windows and original wood floors are beautiful. Greg and Danielle were amazing to work with and we appreciate how flexible and responsive they were. They had little touches in the bridal suite for all your emergency needs. You can also add on the lounge area for the groom and groomsmen. It is attached to The Sycamore, the restaurant next door (which is so good and you need to try as well). That space is perfect for the guys to hang out before the ceremony and makes for great photos. If you are looking for an outdoor ceremony they have a lovely space outside to accommodate! I cannot recommend Forest Hall enough!

Beautiful. Exposed brick, massive old windows, perfect old wood floors, wood columns, ceiling beams, market lights. This place is raw beauty without you adding your own touches! Owner’s could not be any more sweet and accommodating.

From the very first time we saw pictures of Forest Hall, we knew that it was where we wanted to get married. It's a beautiful space that doesn't really need much else to look amazing. As soon as we chose them, Greg and his staff were very knowledgeable, helpful, and accommodating in helping us plan for our wedding, allowing us to see the space and develop a vision for decorating, and creating a customized menu for our guests through the in-house catering service. And on the big day, everything went so beautifully, with many of our guests saying that it was the best wedding they had ever been to. All in all, we're so happy with our decision to choose Forest Hall as our wedding venue, and we can't thank Greg and his staff enough for working with us and for everything he and his staff did to help make our special day more than we ever thought it could be.

From our first tour of Forest Hall, my husband and I knew it was the venue for us. The space is beautiful and customizable, but more importantly the staff and ownership are kind, caring, and fantastic at their jobs. Our entire family and bridal party were impressed with the venue manager, Danielle's, efficiency and organization, and how well she kept our rehearsal and wedding day running smoothly. Danielle, Greg, and their team are some of the best in the business, and they made sure our wedding was every bit as beautiful as we had imagined and then some.

My husband and I got married at Forest Hall this spring and we couldn't be happier that we chose this venue for our wedding! It is a stunning mill space with so many original details and large windows bringing in filtered light. Danielle and Greg were both great to work with and the in-house 39 West catering was wonderful. We couldn't recommend Forest Hall higher to any couples looking for their perfect venue!

This venue is beautiful! During the day, it is naturally lit, and the windows are absolutely stunning. At night, the market lighting makes for an intimate and homey environment. The chairs and tables are beautifully crafted as well, and match the decor of the space well. Acoustically, everyone could hear any speeches or really music clearly, and the sounds turned out well in videos as well. Our wedding was in the winter, so we didn’t use the outside space, except for photos — and from our experience, there’s a great diversity of awesome places to take stunning photos in. The dance floor was a great size as well. Finally, the Forest Hall Staff made sure our day was perfect by setting up everything we needed, and the place was in perfect condition. All in all, a wonderful venue!

We absolutely LOVED having our wedding at Forest Hall. The space was warm and welcoming with plenty of flexibility for outdoor and indoor options. The owners of the space were very accommodating and flexible - we were able to visit the venue multiple times during our engagement to test out different decorations and layouts. Forest Hall was also a winner in terms of value - the venue rental price is very reasonable and includes tables and chairs. The location is so naturally beautiful that you don't need many decorations, which is also quite cost effective. Also - pictures in this space are BEAUTIFUL. Lighting is gorgeous, the colors come together richly, and you cannot beat the buildings' old character (those original hardwood floors are to die for!).
Both my fiance and I have said that we'd get married at Forest Hall again in a heartbeat. -- it will be a place that will always hold a special place in our hearts.

My wife and I got married at Forest Hall at Chatham Mills a week ago today!! We are still swooning over how perfect our day was. When we first toured Forest Hall we immediately fell in love and knew it was the venue for us! We love the industrial look with just a little bit of rustic. This venue provides the beautiful farm tables as well as chairs and the cute market lights plus so much more!! We love that Forest Hall also allowed us to choose our own vendors and make it what we wanted. We would recommend Forest Hall to everyone we know, we had the best experience! Also, check out their open houses that is where we found most of our amazing vendors!

Forest hall made all my wedding venue dreams come true. The space is not only beyond gorgeous, but it worked perfectly with the flow of my wedding. Aneesa and Nathan, the venue coordinators, are INCREDIBLE! I can’t say enough good things about them. They know the venue inside and out and went out of their way to help make my wedding at Forest Hall gorgeous and stress-free. They explained all the layout possibilities and helped me figure out the best options based on what I wanted for my wedding. The price is so reasonable, especially considering both for the amount of space and the comparison with similar venues! I also saved a bunch of money because I needed significantly less decorations since the space is already beautiful with the market lights, stunning wood floors, exposed brick, and giant windows. It’s amazing to have the outdoor/indoor possibilities! We ultimately decided to do both the ceremony and venue inside, but we loved having the option to have the ceremony outside. There are gorgeous places to take pictures outside and all over the property. Forest Hall has everything we wanted and more! I would have my wedding at this venue again in a heartbeat.

Forest Hall was exactly what my fiancé and I were looking for. It has stunning old factory windows that really set the mood. Beautiful wood floors and large farm tables were a huge selling point for us. The industrial overhead lights were stunning as well. This venue has so many photo opportunities come rain or shine. It also has several ceremony and reception options. Forest hall was the perfect venue!

My husband and I were so lucky to have our reception at Forest Hall. Everything was so easy working with Aneesa (venue owner) and her team, and we could not have asked for a more perfect day! Forest Hall is a beautiful venue and grounds with so many different areas to capture beautiful photos. Further, it is stunning inside with so much space to work with and meet all your wants and needs. Seriously, book it, and you will not be disappointed!

Forest Hall is a beautiful venue for many different needs! I have attended two meetings here, and the space has a really cool rustic vibe! Additionally, I have partnered with Aneesa and Nathan in the past, as they were my wedding coordinators (at a different venue before they started leasing Forest Hall ) and they did an amazing job! They really are the dream team to help create the event / wedding that you envision!

Our wedding at Forest Hall at Chatham Mills was nothing short of perfect. The venue is the perfect mix of intimate, industrial, and natural and we loved having both our ceremony and reception in the same convenient location. Aneesa was a dream to work with - so responsive, helpful, and patient - she made the entire planning process a breeze. I would 10/10 recommend this venue to any bride.
