“This venue was everything I could have ever wanted and more! Sandy and her family were an absolute treasure! She was so inviting every time we were on the property. They made sure everything was set up to our liking including how I wanted the tables and chairs set up down to items being brought down to the ceremony. Their willingness to have the ceremony inside if the weather did not permit our dream outside wedding took so much stress off of me knowing I had a second option in moments notice. The venue is gorgeous and well cared for, you can truly tell they love what they do!”
