From the beautiful property to the barn this will make your wedding day even more special. Have to give a huge shot out to Kelly the owner, she is the sweetest lady you will meet. She made sure during the whole planning process to be by our sides. If you need to speak to her, she’s right there for you. On our wedding day she made sure everything ran smoothly. I cannot think of one thing that went wrong. She did a fabulous job ensuring everything was set up properly with the vendors. Highly recommend!

Jerry and his crew made out wedding day incredible! They helped run the whole day, they got the guests seated, kept everything on schedule, and ensured that Ben and I didn't have to worry about anything. When our flowergirl got stage-fright right before walking down the aisle, Jerry swooped in to save the day and helped her find her mom. We initially didn't plan to do a grand entrance into the reception, but Jerry and the DJ (Megan from Music that Moves) made one happen last-minute so our flower girl could have a second shot ar throwing her petals. You're not just getting a venue at Parkway, you're getting a whole team who will make your event run smoothly. If we ever do a vow renewal or anniversary party, we will be back!

Finding Makray Memorial Golf Course was the answer to our prayers. After getting engaged in the South, we dreamed of a "Lowcountry Elegance" wedding, complete with a Southern-inspired menu and lush, verdant surroundings. From the moment we approached the property and saw the beautifully manicured greens against the ivy-clad, English cottage-style architecture, we knew we had found a special place. The interior is equally breathtaking; the dark wood accents and floor-to-ceiling ballroom windows bring the outside in, perfectly echoing the atmosphere of Palmetto Bluff - the place we were engaged. It provided a rare sense of intimacy for our 150 guests while maintaining a grand, storybook feel. As luxury hospitality professionals ourselves, we have exceptionally high standards for service and organization. The "Dream Team"—Laurie, Leeza, Stacie, and Chef John—exceeded every one of them. They operate with a "family-feel" synergy, providing impeccable follow-through and seamless communication that is hard to find. They didn't just listen to our vision; they embraced it. Chef John even curated a bespoke Southern menu just for us, hitting every mark from the crab cakes to the jalapeño cornbread. (A testament to his talent: our Southern Georgia Peach Caprese salad even made it to the official menu at the Oak Terrace Grill—it is a must-try!) Planning a wedding is inherently stressful, but working with a team this organized and genuinely kind gave us a profound sense of relief. We knew that every detail was being handled with extreme care and professional precision. While there are many beautiful venues to choose from, it is the people who set Makray apart. If you want a seamless planning experience, world-class cuisine, and a team that treats your wedding as if it were their own, choose Makray. You will leave with a thousand priceless memories and a full and happy heart.

With everything going on with COVID-19, my fiance and I were super nervous about what would happen if we postponed our wedding or even if we had it with a smaller crowd. We had friends tell us that for their wedding at a different venue, they were still going to be charged the minimum amount even if there were only 50 people, I was so nervous about what was going to happen but then we got the call. Jennifer called us from Brides of Poplar Creek and assured us that they understood what was going on and that they would do whatever they could to accommodate us with what we decided to do. They allowed us to maintain our date for 2020 but then also offered to hold a date (at no cost) for 2021! My fiance and I hit the lotto with this place. Jennifer is up to date on the guidelines they are mandated to follow and continued to support us as we took our time deciding what we were going to do. We have finally decided to move our date and Jennifer drew up the new contract and got it to us in no time. Honestly, she made it so much easier for us to make this decision because it definitely was not easy. If you have not seen this venue in person, you need to go check it out. I am very picky and was looking for a place that did not have carpet. If you look at their old photos you see what the upstairs used to look like, it was beautiful but it had carpet. I was going to not even check out this venue but my mom saw that they updated their floors and now it is wood flooring. IT IS ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL. Having both inside and outside ceremony options, you could not ask for a better place. I cannot wait to continue working with Jennifer and her crew as the countdown to our new wedding date continues. I will post a new review after our wedding happens next September. CHECK OUT BRIDGES OF POPLAR CREEK, YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT

Our experience at The Grove Country Club was absolutely fantastic. Their communication style was prompt, clear, and incredibly friendly throughout the entire planning process. The value we received was great - the space was warm and welcoming, with fantastic dressing rooms for the bride and groom. Lisa, our event coordinator, was simply the best. She paid attention to every detail prior to and during the event, and the service from the entire staff was second to none. The food was restaurant-quality and the presentation of the meal was truly 5-star. We felt like it was their own wedding with how well they treated us, and the views and use of the golf course for our photos made for a gorgeous backdrop. Lisa was attentive to our every request and last-minute change, and checked in on us throughout the night to ensure everything was perfect. We could not have asked for a better venue and team to host our special day. A truly 5-star event!

We loved our beautiful fall wedding at iron works. We lived out of state (but I'm originally from the area) and the team worked with us long distance via email and phone to get the details together for the event. After shopping around I soon realized this was the BEST spot to have a wedding in the stateline area that is connected to a hotel. There's nothing classy in Rockford, it's all run down and gross but Iron works was classy and had the right vibe and price wasn't over the top (It was still expensive but palatable). I will menton we had our actual ceremony at Nicholas Conservatory in Rockford which was amazing but Iron Works was thee place for the reception. The place is industrial but has sexy vibes with the leather and strong iron beams with a nod to the city's past. The event space was beautiful and still looks new and clean and great shape. Love the details in the decor, It was a great canvas to work with. The view from the river was lovely and loved having the outdoor space to hang out in too, especially for those who smoked. The food was wonderful. Was a little worried about the steak, the first initial tasting was decent but thinking about serving steak for such a big crowd we were skeptical it would turn out but everyone's steak was edible and warm, just cooked perfectly, it is a steak house after all. We were glad we upgraded to the filet too. We were super happy with the appetizers and main course and everything was yummy. The servers were on it. Maybe too on it, I would set my drink down and it would disappear. But overall very pleased with our experience. Everyone we worked with was polite and nice from the servers to the managers in charge, we were treated with kindness and respect. I did fly out to come view it in person just to see how they would treat me and they passed the test.. Would have been nice to know about The booking situation with blocking off rooms that another wedding venue reserved rooms so then some of our party had to go to an air Bnb instead of everyone staying there, which was the whole point of doing it there so people didn't have to drive after the reception. Also wish we could have danced later than midnight but it was in our contract to end the night at midnight. Other than that very happy our experience. It was a beautiful wedding, it went by so fast but it was an unforgettable evening. Thanks for everything.
