  • My wedding at Sanctuary Hills

    Verified review
    Meghan H.Jan 12

    I got married at Sanctuary Hills and it was the most beautiful day! We had a beautiful ceremony outside and our reception was also outside under the tent and it was so beautiful! The property is gorgeous and I still look back at pictures from time to time and feel like my wedding pictures are such timeless photos. The cottages on the property were so great for my family and friends to stay in that came from out of town. The cottages are very luxurious, and everyone who stayed in them had such great things to say. My overall experience was a 10 out of 10, and if I could get married there again, I would do it in a heartbeat.

    Sanctuary Hills was an amazing venue for our wedding! From the very beginning, their communication was great - they were easy to work with and very understanding of our needs. The quality of their facilities was awesome, everything was clean and felt brand new. They were incredibly communicative throughout the planning process, which really helped make our special day go off without a hitch. We're so grateful to the Sanctuary Hills team for helping to create such a wonderful celebration that we'll remember forever.
