Every beautiful venue in the region is an hour from her mother's house. An hour from the hotel. An hour from anything she forgot. The ones close to the city feel like hotel ballrooms. The ones that feel like a private estate are forty-five minutes down a gravel road her grandmother is not going to drive at eleven at night.
Willow Haven is a different answer. A venue with an eighteen-hundred-square-foot bridal suite, one wedding per day, and hotels twelve minutes away. In the city, and still private. Timeless, clean, modern. Built by a family who watched their daughters get married and knew exactly what the right venue should feel like.
Willow Haven opens November 2026. The couples booking now are the ones it is being built for.
Renderings of the main hall as designed. Willow Haven opens November 2026.
Thirty-foot ceilings. Room for her, her mother, her sisters, the photographer, the florist, and the two bridesmaids who always run late. A separate entrance so nobody walks past her by accident. Quiet when she wants it quiet. Loud when the champagne comes out.
The Bridal Suite · RenderingGames. A television. A fridge. Room for his brothers and his dad and the groomsman who forgot a belt. The suite opens directly onto the courtyard through a large wood door set in a stone wall, so his half of the wedding party can spill outside without passing through the hall.
The Groom Suite · RenderingConstruction is happening on a piece of land the Bonacorsi family already knows by heart. Until the building is standing, private showings happen at their offices on the same parcel. Claire Gonzales or Mia Bonacorsi walks you through the floor plans, the renderings, the pricing, and the timeline. You meet the people who will be there on your wedding day.
No pressure. No sales tactics. A conversation about whether this is the right fit for your day, held by two sisters who have planned a wedding in the last two years themselves.
Fourteen hours, from 9 AM to 11 PM. The entire property is yours. One wedding per day, no sharing, no overlap.
Four hundred solid-wood Chiavari chairs. Same chair for the ceremony and the reception. No ugly swap mid-event.
White six-foot rectangular tables, high-top cocktail tables for the courtyard and patio, and linen tablecloths for every table in the room.
Right at the building. No shuttles, no gravel lots, no guests walking across a field in heels.
A Willow Haven team member on site for the full rental to handle amenity questions. Bring your own day-of coordinator or planner.
Custom twenty-ounce tumblers for the bridal party, waiting in their suites. Made by the Bonacorsi family's jewelry company next door.
A thirty-page planning document built by the oldest Bonacorsi daughter after her own wedding. Budget, timeline, vendor tracking, seating chart. Yours at booking.
A one-hour rehearsal block the evening before, with a thirty-minute buffer so nobody is rushing anyone else out.
Extended hours available · Rehearsal dinner hosting available · Open vendor policy
Bret and Jennifer Bonacorsi watched their daughters get married. Both days were good. Both had a moment where the family walked out of the venue thinking the same thing: this could be done better.
So they decided to do it. Willow Haven is going up on the same parcel as the Bonacorsi family jewelry business, twelve minutes from the hotels, in the city. Claire and Mia, their daughters, run the private showings. Mia is already booked to get married at Willow Haven herself.
When you book here, you are not handed off between a sales manager, a coordinator, a venue rep, and a clean-up crew. You are hosted by a family who is building this to be the venue they wished they had.
