The Makoy was the perfect wedding venue for our special day. From the moment we first reached out, their communication was prompt, kind, friendly, and professional. The venue itself is spacious, clean, and beautifully decorated - exactly what we were looking for. On the day of our wedding, their day-of coordinator seamlessly handled the transition from our planned outdoor ceremony to an indoor one due to unexpected rain. They set up the space beautifully and kept us on schedule so the entire day ran smoothly. Even though it wasn't exactly how we had originally planned, the Makoy team made sure everything was perfect, and we wouldn't change a thing. Our wedding was everything we wanted and needed it to be thanks to the Makoy's incredible service and stunning venue.
