Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment we booked our wedding at the Crowne Plaza San Marcos Golf Resort, their communication was consistent, clear, and efficient. The staff went above and beyond to ensure our special day was nothing short of perfect. The venue itself was absolutely beautiful, with a spacious fountain courtyard. Yovany and the event team at Crowne Plaza kept the morning of our wedding stress-free, and were there to assist my husband and I throughout the entire night, making sure every detail was attended to. We could not have asked for a more beautiful, seamless, and memorable wedding experience. This was a destination wedding for the grooms side of the family, and they felt like the experience was perfect. We highly recommend the Crowne Plaza San Marcos Golf Resort to any couple looking for a truly exceptional venue.

My now husband and I had the BEST experience with the Ashley Castle. They make it so easy to have a (almost) stress free wedding day! They provide everything for you and give you a timeline of when to have things done which helps so much for a couple that has no idea what they are doing or where to start. Not only that, but our wedding day went by seamlessly except for some rain, but the transition was perfect. The owners and vendors checked up on us the day night, the food was amazing, the bartender was fun, and the DJ has everyone dancing the whole night!! We have nothing but good things to say about the Castle. Not to mention that it’s just all around beautiful inside and outside. The gazebo, the statues, the water fountain, just WOW! I really felt like a princess in a castle, which is every girls dream. Thank you Ashley Castle, we would recommend you to absolutely everyone that is looking for a special wedding day!

Where to begin? We are so happy we scouted out this venue when we did and we gate-kept it for as long as we could but nothing can stop an incredible place like this from getting popular. This is seriously THE spot to get married in Tucson. It has the authentic feel with a modern and classy edge that goes with any aesthetic. Did I mention the bridal and groom suites for getting ready? Unbelievably gorgeous and comfortable. Guests were obsessed with the vibe and the many photo ops throughout the space. David and his team, Rashid the DJ, Vince the bartender, Michelle with Atlas Catering, are absolutely unmatched. We were able to customize where we wanted and ask any questions we needed with a quick response time. Sadly, our wedding had a medical emergency occur (everyone ended up being ok!) and everyone on staff was compassionate and professional. They even followed up with us after our wedding to make sure our guest was doing ok. I cannot say enough positive things about Bates, it truly is something special and we feel lucky to have been married there. We'll never forget it 3

Wow! If we could get married here over and over every year we would! After walking the grounds, we had a specific vision of where we would like to get married. Crystal worked closely with us to help make that dream come true! She was always responsive, kind, and solutions-oriented. All of our guests stayed at the Inn and received expectational service. Everyone received a room upgrade if available, and our families rooms were all placed close together. Every last detail was thought out and Crystal helped us make sure we had everything prepared so that we could relax and enjoy our special day. We highly, highly recommend The Arizona Inn as a wedding location! We look forward to many returns!
