Awarded Best of Zola
This venue was everything I could have ever wanted and more! Sandy and her family were an absolute treasure! She was so inviting every time we were on the property. They made sure everything was set up to our liking including how I wanted the tables and chairs set up down to items being brought down to the ceremony. Their willingness to have the ceremony inside if the weather did not permit our dream outside wedding took so much stress off of me knowing I had a second option in moments notice. The venue is gorgeous and well cared for, you can truly tell they love what they do!

My husband and I could not have asked for a more beautiful wedding. We had the most stress free experience any couple could ask for and our families did not have to lift a finger. Shelia and Jeffery were so easy to work with and so organized. They provided us choices for different areas on the property to have the ceremony and reception, menu options, cake options, floral options, decor options, and photographer options to choose from. The only thing we had to provide was hair and make-up and someone to perform the ceremony. As someone who is over whelmed easily and has zero experience planning a wedding, this was a dream situation. They worked hard to understand our vision and make it happen. (We even had fireworks.)
