It’s been a year since we got married at The Pick Inn and never once do we reflect and regret anything! Amanda and her awesome staff did an amazing job. They placed everything so perfectly from the chairs and pergola arrangements and all the odds and ends I brought. They made the day run smoothly, I actually noticed zero wedding day hiccups. So kuddos to the team if there were any. We could not have had the wedding we did without Amanda, their vendor recommendations, and the beautiful venue itself! People still talk to me about how beautiful the venue was a year later. It is truly so dreamy and peaceful. Amanda was always available for questions that we had, which was super helpful as an anxious bride to be! My husband and I are so thankful that we found The Pick Inn and if we were able, we would do it all again (but only at The Pick Inn). :)
