1 Memphis St. is not only a beautiful venue but it also comes with an amazing staff that goes out of their way to make sure your day is perfect. It’s everything you could ever dream of all in one location. The owners are very hands on which I find rare in the wedding industry, they invest in each bride and want to ensure your day is everything and more. Couldn’t recommend them enough, they are by far the best venue in Desoto County.
