We fell in love with the Annex as soon as we visited! The venue manager Cassandra and the owner Veronica were both so helpful and accommodating. The space is absolutely gorgeous! We did all our decorations ourselves and the space is so beautiful on its own I felt like I didn’t have to add much. Our wedding went more smoothly than I could have dreamed, and I loved all the different places available for photo opportunities. The getting ready areas were perfect for our wedding party size. The stained glass in the chapel was the star of the show. We can’t recommend the Annex enough!!
