“The communication with Ashore Resort & Beach Club was good, but the quality of their work and overall value was beautiful. They helped make our wedding day special by providing an on-site ice cream bar that we didn't need to find a separate vendor for. However, they did not have chairs for our outdoor ceremony due to the wind earlier that morning, which caused a bit of guests complaining about having to stand during the 15 minute ceremony. Our guests had said that they didn’t see why they couldn’t have set up the chairs as they walked out since the wind wasn’t blowing before the ceremony started.”
