Paradise Park was the perfect venue for our wedding day. From the moment we first visited in person, the owner made us feel welcomed and went above and beyond to ensure everything was just right. Their communication style was excellent, with regular calls and in-person meetings to discuss all the details. The venue itself is truly stunning, with spacious rooms, multiple areas and buildings, and plenty of space both indoors and out. The owner made sure all the photo spots were in perfect condition, and even gave us great ideas on how to use the different spaces, like the small church-like building and the multiple stages overlooking the river and wooded areas. We felt so taken care of, and the owner was always checking in to make sure things were going smoothly leading up to the big day. Being able to rent the venue for the full weekend was an added bonus that allowed us to really make the most of the space. Overall, we could not have asked for a better venue and wedding experience. Highly recommended!
