Great venue space for weddings, bridal showers, rehearsal dinners, etc. Everything went so smoothly on my wedding day. We rented the ballroom space for the ceremony and the team was able to flip the entire space from ceremony to reception during the secondline. It looked stunning and everything was flawless from beginning to end. We also had all of our guests stay at the hotel on-site for easy logistics and hosted a family brunch the day after on-site as well. Definitely recommend!
