Awarded Best of Zola
The Inns of Aurora Resort & Spa was the perfect choice for our wedding venue. From the start, the planner Kim was incredibly straightforward and clear in her communication, which we really appreciated. She and her team worked like a well-oiled machine to ensure everything went smoothly. The venue itself was absolutely gorgeous, with a stunning view of the lake and the beautiful Aurora temple. The Roland House where we stayed was so quaint and charming. Kim was particularly great at handling some unique logistical challenges, like coordinating our Indian Baraat procession with the DJ, which had never been done at the property before. She also made a last-minute call to move the ceremony indoors to avoid rain, which saved the day. Kim and her team were extremely coordinated and attentive to all the little details like signs and name cards. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect, dream-like wedding venue.
