Casani Estates was an amazing venue for our wedding! The communication leading up to the big day with Carmen and Elizabeth was fantastic - they were so quick to answer every question I had. On the day of the wedding, we ended up having to move the ceremony indoors due to weather, and the staff was incredible, jumping in to make sure everything went smoothly. The venue itself is absolutely gorgeous, and the staff was wonderful to work with throughout the entire process. We couldn't have asked for a better wedding day thanks to the team at Casani Estates!
