Hi Camille. We were happy to host your wedding, and you were lovely clients. We are requir...
ed to have licensed, insured bartenders in order to serve alcohol at our events. You’d have been welcome to stay longer, but we weren’t able to allow the handful of friends who were still here at the end of the event to keep drinking after your bartending service left. Enforcing the rules around our state’s liquor law might be the least fun part of our jobs here, but the consequences of breaking those rules could cost us our jobs, or worse, someone could get hurt. We wish you and yours all the future happiness!

Great and friendly staff that are willing to go out of their way to help and make sure everything is what you want. It is a bit of an unexpected hidden gem, but as you pull behind ...
the gate, it feels as though you entered a peaceful garden. I booked from out of town, and everyone was very accommodating of my need for video tours and Zoom meetings.
