“We knew the moment we walked around it had our exact vibe from the physical layout and decor, to the staff and their event management team. There was a lot of “wedding fluff” we wanted to remove from our wedding and Terrain happily accommodated this without making us feel we were losing something on our day or not following “the norm”. Once we booked them, the communication was a perfect amount for me. I am very type A and had spreadsheets, a planning binder, etc., and always felt from our meetings and emails that the staff there were not missing anything, were constantly responding to me timely, and were very serious about making sure our wedding was exactly what we wanted while maintaining a positive and friendly vibe. Their questionnaires and planning meetings covered everything and there was rarely a moment I had any lingering questions or concerns. If I did, they would always answer me and address them! On the actual wedding day, every single staff member went above and beyond. Truly everyone was so kind and friendly and on top of their portion of work for the day, I didn’t doubt a single one of them! Specifically, our wedding coordinators and bridal attendants were AMAZING! I knew they’d be there to help out that day - but they cared for us, tended to our every single possible need, and were on top of the one to two issues that came up without letting me event sweat about it. They did not let us stress for a moment, and they were so lovingly attentive I felt I could go to them for anything - a concern, some advice, a dirty wedding dress, an app I missed or fresh drink, ANYTHING! They were really amazing from arrival to departure. They even helped packing everything up so I got to dance the night away and let go! I felt like they were my guardian angels or something! Truly amazing work done by them, I wish they could be there for me for other big events! The wedding went off without a hitch, and our guests absolutely raved about the food, drinks, and staff. We have a few big allergy concerns in our families, and Terrain handled them diligently throughout the evening as if it were their own family. These members of our family came up to us as well and expressed how they felt so safe and included, one cousin told me she hasn’t had a 3 course meal in half a decade, but Terrain made it possible for her to so. I don’t know how it could get much better than that for your wedding guests. Overall, the vibe of the venue can be ‘dressed up’ or down, you can add more decor or leave it as is and it’s gorgeous. I think this venue for that reason can be great for the minimal bride(s) and groom(s) or for those who want to go all out on decor. Terrain will help you either way ensure the space is setup perfectly to your vision. We truly had an amazing wedding and we have no regrets on any aspect. Terrain and our vendors were perfectly matched and all came together beautifully to give us a perfect day! I wish we could go back in time and do it all again!! Thankfully, they have their restaurant we can visit for special occasions, but nothing is better than your wedding day, so don’t hesitate to book them for yours!”
