As soon as we toured, we immediately felt like it was where our wedding would take place. Having the entire space for the entire day was fantastic. The bridal suite had more than enough space for me and all of my ladies (along with all of our things). The staff was beyond friendly and both Justin and Kristine made us feel completely at ease the entire time. We loved that their team handled all the setup (and tear down), executing my vision to a level beyond my hopes. There wasn't a candle or a flower out of place. Also, their sound system is unmatched.
