We absolutely loved our wedding here at The Grace. Thomas was so helpful the entire time. He was very communicative about everything and was always available to answer any questions and if I wanted to see the venue more than once he was able to accommodate that. The Grace staff had such a calm and attentive feel working with them. If I had to book a venue for my wedding all over again I would definitely choose them.
