Clark and the staff were extremely amenable and professional. They made us (and our guests) feel well taken care of and a part of their family and ours. We still have guests at our wedding tell us regularly that it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to (including our pastor who has been to MANY a wedding). What made it great was the beautiful location, the innovative drinks, the creative menu, and the hospitable crew. Mercury made the overwhelming process of wedding planning as simple and chill as possible. In fact, we regularly talk about when can we have a Mercury “wedding” repeat, it was that good amazing.
