I adored working with Tresse and the team at White Pillars Restaurant & Lounge for our rehearsal dinner. They were incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, and responsive throughout the planning process. The venue itself was classic, gorgeous, and spotlessly clean - the perfect backdrop for our special occasion. They worked closely with us on all the details to ensure the event was flawless, and even passed out glasses of bubbly right on time for the toast. With over a hundred guests, each one felt special and well taken care of. I absolutely recommend White Pillars to any couple looking for a stunning, stress-free wedding or rehearsal venue!
