The Place at 534 was an absolute dream for our wedding on September 6, 2025! Having everything all-inclusive took so much of the guesswork and stress out of planning. They truly think of every detail to make sure your day goes smoothly. The staff are incredibly kind and thoughtful, making you feel important every step of the way. With how busy they are and all the weddings they host, I was amazed at how personalized the planning process and wedding day felt. We booked our date three years in advance, and it was worth every second of the wait! Jess and Logan went above and beyond on the day of—checking in often and quickly handling any little hiccups. Audrey and Doug, along with Jess and Logan, were all so amazing throughout the planning process, and we are so grateful for their guidance. Our guests couldn’t stop complimenting how beautiful and special the venue and day were. The food, flowers, photographers, baker, décor, wait staff, and more were all top-notch! The Place at 534 also gave us excellent recommendations for vendors outside of their contract, such as hair & makeup and shuttle services, which made everything even easier. Our wedding day truly was the best day of our lives, and The Place at 534 made our dream come true!
