“Our wedding was beautiful, we couldn’t have asked for a better day or venue. The castle was a stunning backdrop for our wedding. We had our rehearsal dinner, ceremony, and reception at Meyer’s Castle and each piece came perfectly together. The newly redecorated bridal suite is gorgeous and my bridal party and I felt like royalty getting ready. The florals and gardens were stunning and there is an Instagram worthy photo spot around every corner. Our coordinator, Eva, did a great job setting up all of our decor and was very communicative throughout the planning process. Eva and the MC team accommodated everything we wanted to include on our special day and our guests had nothing but wonderful things to say about our wedding. Everyone loved the food and even loved the table wine, numerous guests took photos of the wine so that they could buy a bottle later on. We are so glad to have started the rest of our lives together after saying “I Do” at Meyer’s Castle; surrounded by family, friends, and 2 beautiful peacocks that roam the grounds.”

“From our first conversation with January and Tripp, we knew Aerie Commons was the right choice for our bridal shower and rehearsal lunch venue. They stayed on top of every detail throughout the planning process and answered our questions quickly and thoughtfully which made planning so much easier. The space itself is stunning and welcoming, with plenty of room for our guests to move around comfortably. The food was fabulous and the service was seamless from start to finish. They also supplied and serviced the grazing table and wedding cake at the wedding ceremony. (The Bride's favorite part). We cannot recommend January, Tripp, and the entire Aerie Commons team enough—they truly made all our celebrations fabulous.”
