Though many weddings haven’t turned out quite as planned this year — as with most events during the COVID-19 pandemic — Charbonneau Events Coordinator Lindy Anderson reminds the public that the Charbonneau Country Club has a beautiful venue for weddings. Since the merging of the CCC and the Charbonneau Golf Course, and the construction of the new pavilion, the wedding venue has expanded and is open to members of the general public. The wedding venue now includes the country club for dancing and a reception, the pavilion and the rose garden area. The first wedding since the pandemic erupted locally was Aug. 1. “When they came out to watch the wedding there were 25 people in chairs on the rose garden,” said Anderson, adding that there were also people watching the ceremony socially distanced in golf carts. Anderson said most people who had weddings planned have canceled except the bride from the Aug. 1 wedding. Anderson said although there have been cancellations, she has received a lot of inquiries about next year. Right now, Charbonneau has an approved caterers list with seven or eight caterers. “In the future, we hope to develop in-house catering,” Anderson said. She said the venue has adequate parking space and easy access from the freeway. “It’s a beautiful setting and it flows together really well,” Anderson said.
