Linda and Liz have been such a joy to work with! They have been quick to respond to emails and happy to answer all my questions. When we met in person to tour the space, we felt welcome right away –– like old friends catching up. I love that VOWS is focused on small and intimate weddings – a lot of venues in town are geared toward the larger capacity and that's just not really our style. What's even better is that everything from officiant to photographer to food and drink is included in our package, so I don't have to stress over a million different things or vendors. Our wedding isn't until 2024, but we could not be more excited to host our close friends and family at VOWS! I am very much looking forward to working with the VOWS team as our date nears to finalize all the details.
