I had an absolutely amazing experience at our wedding venue. From start to finish, everything went smoothly and felt truly special. Dominique, our coordinator, was incredibly sweet and always willing to assist in any way we needed. She made the planning process so much easier. Courtney and her husband were also present on the day of the wedding and were such a huge help. It meant a lot to have them there and so involved. Our setup took several days, and the venue was incredibly accommodating, allowing us access for the entire week. That was a huge relief and made things so much less stressful. I also did multiple site visits with vendors beforehand, and they were flexible and welcoming every single time. One of the most special parts for me was spending the night before the wedding at the mansion with my girls. It gave us time to relax, connect, and made the morning of the wedding so much easier for hair and makeup. If I could do it all over again, I truly wouldn’t change a thing. I’m so grateful for the experience and would highly recommend this venue to any couple.
