Best Venue Ever!
My husband and I got married here on May 11th, and it was truly a dream wedding. The food was amazing, and my guests were sure to let me know that. The view was unreal, and upkeep was so great we didn't need to spend much on floral, since the Candlewood Inn has such beautiful scenery and foliage. Krista was my coordinator and she was extremely helpful during the entire I was engaged and planning up until the day of the wedding, she is the absolute sweetest. Delilah and Brooke were my wedding helpers, not sure of the right term, and they literally helped me with every single thing on my wedding day. They made sure i had a drink in hand, that I was ok, that I ate, that my dress was on right. I truly don't know what i would have done without them, they really showed they cared about me. I am so grateful I was able to get married in the most beautiful place close to home.
The Wedding of our Dreams!
Our wedding day was the absolute best day of our lives. The amazing staff at Candlewood went above and beyond to make sure of that. From the moment we booked with Conor, I was so excited to get married there. Then, when we met with Christian, he made us feel calm, excited, and ready for our big day. Two days before, we dropped off all of our decor and I told him I was a little stressed. He took extra care to walk us through the day and I left calm and excited. On our wedding day, we had two bridal attendants, they were AMAZING. I truly felt like a queen all night long. They greeted us off the bus, offered champagne and snacks in the bridal suite, would not let me walk without picking up my dress to keep it clean, held my bouquet, fixed my hair. All night, they made sure we had food and drinks. They went above and beyond. We felt that each and every one of the staff were just so genuinely excited for us and it made us very happy. I could not imagine a better day. I had many guests come up to me and tell me that it was the best wedding they have ever been to! And the food and the cake were top notch! I will be telling everyone about the beautiful venue and the wonderful staff for the rest of our lives. If you have the chance to get married here, DO IT. You will not be disappointed.
