Saxon Manor was the perfect venue for our wedding. Their communication throughout the planning process was very easy; they were always quick to respond to emails and phone calls with a friendly and helpful attitude. The venue itself is so pretty, with beautiful gardens and architecture that made a gorgeous backdrop for our photos. It was definitely worth the money to host our reception there. The staff at Saxon Manor went above and beyond for us on our special day - they were attentive to every detail, from the setup and decor to making sure my husband and I were well taken care of.

Sweetwater Branch Inn (SWB) went above and BEYOND to make my wedding weekend everything I had dreamed of—and more. If I could give SWB a million out of five stars, I absolutely would! My wedding was on March 16, 2025, and originally planned as an outdoor event. The team at SWB was incredibly flexible, allowing me to get creative with the venue and hold the ceremony and dinner in a different location than they usually do which was impressive in itself! Just days before the wedding, a storm was predicted to hit. At the last minute, we ordered a tent for the gardens (something that had never been done before), completely reworked the layout we had spent over a year planning, and somehow, everything turned out perfectly! Adrienne, the event coordinator, and Angel, the food and beverage coordinator, were nothing short of incredible. Adrienne went above and beyond, dedicating extra time and effort to ensure my vision came to life, even with the last-minute changes. Every single member of the staff was truly wonderful. My close family stayed at the Inn and didn’t want to leave! Guests traveled from Canada, New York City, and even Sydney, Australia—and every single one of them raved about their stay. From the friendly and helpful staff to the elegant decor and the delicious food (both at breakfast and the wedding!), they were beyond impressed. I cannot say enough great things about Sweetwater Branch Inn and the amazing event venue they provide. They do everything with heart, which is so rare these days—and that, above all, meant the world to me and my guests.

There are not enough words to describe how thankful I am for everyone at Club Continental. The Club Continental was an incredible venue for our wedding day. From the moment we first inquired, Carla made us feel so welcomed. And no matter how many ridiculous questions I had, their communication was fast and thorough, addressing all of our questions and providing helpful suggestions. On the day of, the staff went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly - and me, being a dummy, forgot all about a Notary. but The Club went out of their way to find us a last-minute notary when we needed one, and assisted with the setup. The evening manager, overseeing the wedding was so attentive, helpful and accommodating the entire time. I can not express how thankful we were to have him there. Everything ran smoothly because of him. The venue itself is simply magic. So incredibly beautiful, with such a warm and welcoming atmosphere. It was like stepping into a different world when you got on those grounds. And the stunning natural settings were just breathtaking. We were blown away by the amazing and friendly staff, not only the day of the wedding, but the entire week we stayed there. The breakfast staff was incredible, I wanted to become part of her family!! And let’s not forget the FOOD!! Salivating just thinking about it. They offered a couple food tasting events which allowed you to taste some of their different options before you decide on a menu. This was extremely helpful because what I thought I’d choose vs what I actually chose were complete opposites, and that’s because I was able to get those samples in. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect location to celebrate our special day and I can’t wait to go back and spend a few days there.

I’ve been working with Golden Ocala as a Wedding DJ for over 15 years and I have to say the latest remodel is AMAZING!!! You have to see it in person to truly appreciate it’s beauty. I’ve attached a picture that I took(I’m a DJ not a photographer) of a recent Wedding. The staff is easy to work with and that translates into a happy client because we work as a team and the client is able to enjoy their event and not worry about all the details.

We were very pleased with the professionalism of the sales and event planning team. The sales team went out of their way to accommodate our late request for a meeting. And the handoff to the event team was flawless. Our event coordinator was helpful when reviewing our options for food and drink selections and very responsive and flexible to our requests. Our experience with rooming requests and lists in other weddings (3) had not been great, but with this hotel and our event planner, everything was exactly correct and with all requests met. Our suite was the perfect size for entertaining all weekend. The food at the Welcome Party was beautifully displayed and delicious. The Duval room was the perfect size and the attending staff and bartender could not have done a better job. We also hosted a Farewell brunch and again the room size was perfect and the food was “best brunch food ever” as exclaimed by our guests. We would highly recommend this hotel !
