Wonderful Experience

We can't say enough wonderful things about Makray. The entire team truly treats you like family and has a passion for making your wedding day everything you always wished it would be. Their kindness, and attention to detail, is next level. The food is delicious, and their preferred vendors are just as wonderful. Thank you Laurie, Leeza ,and Stacie for all you did for us. We appreciate you more than you know.
Great Team and Great Experience THANK YOU!

Planning a wedding requires great attention to detail and a lengthy and continuous process of paying attention to infinite details. The team of Laurie, Leeza and Chef Hennessy were tremendous partners during this process, and we cannot thank them enough for all their help and support. They were all OUTSTANDING! In addition, no matter how much planning you do there are always things that occur on the day of the wedding that are unforeseen. All our last-minute adjustments were handled efficiently, effectively and with great care! THANK YOU. The ceremony was outside on the lawn, and we loved the set-up and the space. The pictures from the ceremony really came out well and the ease of moving to the space upstairs was tremendously convenient. The room set-up was incredibly impressive with plenty of room for the dance floor, the coffee station, a kids table with activities and the cake cutting. The access to the outside patio was a real bonus for people to get a breath of fresh air and to enjoy the view overlooking the golf course. Finally, a big “hats-off” to the Chef and his team. The meal presentation and quality were great, and we would highly recommend the dessert station with ICE CREAM and the late- night snack option. The food was FABULOUS from start to finish. As the bride and groom, we were extremely pleased with the event from start to finish and were not surprised by the significant number of COMPLIMENTS we received from the attendees. Our favorite was the comment “You have now ruined it for every wedding I attend in the future, because this one was so good!”
Wedding of my dreams!

I cannot say enough amazing things about the team here at Makray! From the moment I saw Makray and met Leeza, I knew that this venue is where I wanted to get married. Not only is the venue absolutely stunning, Leeza had amazing communication throughout the entire process, was accommodating with all of our requests, and helped make my wedding day a literal dream! When we dropped off our deposit, my husband and I sat in the office with Leeza & Laurie for over an hour and got to know one another better. It truly showed us how much they cared about getting to know us, how passionate they are about their jobs, and how committed they were to giving us the best wedding day possible. While wedding planning can be overwhelming and stressful, Leeza her team made it such a fun and enjoyable experience. We received so many compliments about how great the food was, how beautiful the venue was, and how amazing the guest experience was. I cannot say THANK YOU enough to the team here, they are simply just the best!!
Best Day Ever
