Meet The Team

“Cheryl, I just wanted to thank you for your amazing work on our wedding. Everyone at Fearrington has been outstanding but you seemed to magically be everywhere doing everything. We can’t tell you how much it means to us. We loved it! Take care and we hope to be back soon.”

Hi Gilda,

  I just wanted to let you know how amazing I think you are- you made my wedding absolutely spectacular and I can’t thank you enough.  EVERY guest commented on how fantastic you were and my friends that are getting married later this year (not at Fearrington) were so jealous  My parents, who had never visited Fearrington before, were very impressed with you, the staff, Mary, Krystal, Jill, John- everyone who helped set up, hold the umbrellas, etc…it was such a team effort and we could tell that everyone who works at Fearrington must really enjoy it.  Many people even said it was the most beautiful wedding they had ever been to.

  Even with the rain (which actually turned out to make the wedding more unique and fun!), it was the best day of my life- and a day Scott and I and our friends and families will never forget.  Thank you so much for all your hard work- you have one very happy bride!

Love and gratitude to you!

Gilda, Jill, Mary, and the entire Fearrington Team – Thank you all so much for everything you did to make our wedding day absolutely gorgeous! Your talents are greatly appreciated and it all would not have been the same without your creativity, hospitality, and professionalism. Much gratitude!

Hi Gilda! Thank you again for a lovely event and such a flexible approach! [Groom] and I will be sure to be out there again for dinner soon after everything settles in. Please pass along my sincere thanks to both Chef and Jill for their phenomenal work and generosity. It was a pleasure to have Max at the dinner as well. Thank you again for the wedding of a lifetime!”

“We are all back home and are basking in the wonderful memories of this past weekend. You were beyond fabulous. Every detail was attended to and every request was immediately addressed. Our guests were treated like kings and queens. Needless to say, we were very happy. My daughter’s wedding reception was perfect. Thank you.”

“Cheryl Ann, I wanted to send you a short note to thank you for all your hard work, especially on the wedding day, to make Emily’s wedding a storybook event. The food, flowers, lighting, decorations, music, and ceremony were all spectacular and you deserve the credit for having everything go so smoothly. What can I say? We love you and think you are great! Fearrington is the perfect venue for a wedding!”

“Hi Gilda! We have been just sitting back receiving wonderful gobs of praise for being so smart and clever as to have chosen Fearrington for the festivities! Totally knocked everybody’s socks off. So thanks AGAIN!!! You are fantastic, amazing…it wouldn’t have happened without your expertise. And Mary and Jill ditto. Rory and Annie are already planning to spend their first anniversary at the Inn, and Mark and I plan to have dinner there in the fall when we head up to Chapel Hill for football! I wish you all the best!”

“Gilda — Where do I even begin…it’s hard to explain how thankful I am for you making one of the best days of my life perfect. I think about my wedding everyday and feel so happy, it was better than I ever imagined. But beyond my wedding being so well designed and managed through and through, I’m most thankful that I had the opportunity to work with you and such an amazing team. Thank you for being my rock and for trusting me, guiding me, and supporting my husband and I through this process. We loved every minute and will certainly be back to visit!

“The delicious food was a huge hit with all our guests, and the flowers were gorgeous. The wedding cake was perfect, beautiful, and delicious. The Barn is certainly a wonderful place for the cocktail party and reception with dinner. None of us will ever forget the garden wedding, and how well everything went – thank you for directing all of us. The Inn courtyard, the patio, and also the field made incredible backdrops for our photos. Also, thank you for holding off the rain until the reception!!”

“Hi Gilda! Thank you so much for such an amazing experience!!!!! Ryan and I relaxed, enjoyed ourselves, and truly had a SPECTACULAR wedding at Fearrington! I cannot thank you enough for your hard work, professionalism, creativity, management, and communications! You are CHERISHED! You , Mary and the Fearrington team, went above and beyond to create such a perfect, romantic elopement for Ryan and me! We cannot thank you enough!”

Mary – I miss you just thinking about how wonderful planning  our wedding with you was. I can’t put into words how lucky Ben and I feel. We are so thankful for you. And not just your talents, but your amazing personality. You and Gilda worked so hard on our wedding and prepping for worst-case scenarios day-of. Thank you, thank you for everything. It was literally the best day of our lives – mostly because of the flowers. We hope to come visit soon and hopefully more permanently in the future. We know this is just a little thank-you, but want to tell you one more time how grateful we are!

Dear Cheryl,
Thank you for all of your help to make our bridal shower so lovely. Everyone had fun and the food was yummy. Lisa and Alyce took very good care of us. Their service was wonderful! Lisa knew just what to ask to make things go off without a hitch. She even thought to ask what sort of music we wanted. I would not have known to ask! Please tell both Lisa and Alyce thank you for me.
Also, the flowers were absolutely beyond perfect! Please tell Mary thank you. There were lots of compliments for the arrangements. Mary’s selection of flowers was exactly what I had hoped for.
Cheryl, thank you for pulling it all together and working out all of the details with us! You also were the best!
