Testimonials
Casa Feliz is everything I dreamt my wedding to be! Casa is so incredibly beautiful, both inside and outside. I really loved the upstairs where my bridesmaids and I were able to get ready. It was a nice private space that we could all share together. The courtyard created the most beautiful “first look” pictures, and the arch made for gorgeous pictures with my husband and wedding party. I can’t say enough about how gorgeous this venue is, and how amazing the staff are. Lori was fantastic with communication, and truly helped make my wedding perfect. You won’t be disappointed by choosing Casa Feliz as your wedding venue.
My wife and I recently got married at Casa Feliz and couldn't be happier that we did. First off, the place is oozing with character and romantic ambiance that you don't get most places. The staff you deal with preparing for the event are very helpful. The staff during the event are friendly and attentive. My wife and I had a dedicated server that was on top of making sure we had everything we needed. That was an incredible touch that I was not expecting. The food was extremely good which wasn't a surprise as Arthur's catering is known to be one of the best in the Orlando area. The value was good for a Thursday wedding. I would highly recommend Casa Feliz to anyone looking for a wedding venue. I would also highly recommend Arthur's Catering.
Casa Feliz was the first and only venue we looked at for our wedding this past Friday. Once we saw it, we knew it was the place for us. We cannot say enough great things about the venue and the whole experience. Our guests all loved the venue and thought it was so beautiful and unique. A HUGE thank you to Sarah, who answered all of our questions, helped make our wedding go smoothly and everything in between. Arthur's Catering has the BEST wedding food we have ever had. All of our guests couldn't stop talking about how great the food was. The bartenders were amazing, our server Alyssa was amazing and all the rest of the staff were impeccable! I would recommend Casa Feliz to anyone looking for a venue in Central Florida!
Casa Feliz was our dream wedding venue! It is picture perfect and the staff was so great to work with. Every detail is discussed during your consultations. The staff was always prompt with their communication. There are a lot of options for upgrades so depending on your budget, there is something for everyone. Our guests loved everything about our venue. The brick backdrop makes for wonderful wedding photos. The exclusive caterers Arthur's Catering provided excellent service and the food was delicious!! Arthur's hosts an open house for their clients and you get to taste all their amazing food! I would highly recommend Casa Feliz for your wedding venue! The pictures speak for themselves.
We had our first date just 7 minutes from Casa Feliz, and we found this venue while reminiscing, so it seemed like fate to stumble upon such a beautiful spot for our wedding. We reached out to Lori, Casa Feliz's brilliant events coordinator, and after our FaceTime chat we knew it was the perfect place for our ceremony and reception. Lori was truly amazing, she answered ALL of my emails (and there were lots of them), always super helpful, always coming up with solutions or suggestions, always felt like speaking to a friend. From there, we had our taste testing with Arthur's Catering (the exclusive catering for Casa): if the beauty of Casa doesn't do it for you, the food with Arthur's will!!! We got raving comments on the food, the mushroom ravioli was the silent hit of the night, the avocado bar blew everyone's mind, and my personal favorite - the bacon-wrapped scallops OMG!!! The day we got to do our rehearsal at Casa was also incredible. We got to see the whole space and the layout of it flows perfectly for what we had in mind. This is THE spot for your dream wedding. We cannot thank Lori, the team at Arthurs (shoutout to the wonderful Lorraine) and all of Casa Feliz enough <3
