It was absolutely gorgeous, and we felt so special.

Gorgeous room- such a blank canvas, it can be decorated to almost any taste! Our wedding was so uniquely us. Customer service was excellent from the first time we contacted them, we felt so well cared for and like our day was as important to them as it was to us. The food was absolutely beautiful, the buffet looked stunning and there was plenty for everyone.
