We attended a wedding at this venue last weekend, and it was so beautiful! Unfortunately we had a rainy day, but you would never know we experienced the "Plan B" version. All staff members were extremely positive and helpful, the food was delicious, bartenders so friendly (even when a long line of eager customers), and the venue itself stunning. We had a wonderful time and feel lucky to have been guests to have had this experience!

We could not have asked for a more perfect venue for our wedding. Cara and staff were excellent and I highly recommend trusting their judgement and going with the vendors on their list. We used Katherine Bloom Company for coordination (12/10 recommend if you're debating getting a coordinator DO IT), Arthur's Catering, Rachel Kasie Design for Florals, and Emotive Photo for photography.

What an amazing location to get married at! Stunning backdrops at every corner for beautiful photos and the atmosphere is heavenly. The reception hall is so cozy and perfect, to me it was the best wedding location I've ever been to. Absolutely perfect.

I've been to many many many weddings in the Orlando area, but none at as nice of a location as Estate on the Halifax. You get exclusive use of the property on your wedding day and a free night stay on the night of your wedding at Agatha's Guesthouse on property. The property has ceremony locations for everyone: inside the chapel, underneath a large oak tree or outside a beautiful pavilion. My guests still rave about how beautiful the property was and how they enjoyed exploring the gardens and koi ponds during cocktail hour.

First of all, I want to thank Cara (the owner) for being so personable and helpful since we booked our wedding in 2020. The Estate constantly invests back into their venue creating new bathrooms, train car seating areas, and paved walkways to show they want the best experience for their guests. We have seen the place change for the better over the past two years since deciding to make this our venue. Cara's preferred venue list is solid and professional. The staff on the day of the wedding was so much fun and delightful. Everyone had an amazing time. I highly recommend booking your wedding here. They are the best!
