David and Lisa were beyond phenomenal! As soon as we arrived to the venue Lisa was ready to talk about decoration because she has a closet full of anything you can imagine. I am no...t big on decorations so her simple taste and variety of colors were much appreciated. David has taken his gift of maintaining the 20 acres of amazing land and making it the perfect venue.
The pricing for our Saturday wedding in February was no more than 4,100 (including deposit, damages, security, etc). The security deposit ($500) will be returned after the wedding if there are no damages. Our total wedding was $3600. These prices can very depending on when you get married but for that price it was perfect. We were given FREE decorations to use, were able to provide our own food (rather than catering), did not need a bartender (no liquor allowed at the venue), and had a ceremony and reception starting at 4pm-10pm.
Friday night we did rehearsal from 5pm-8pm and were able to bring our own food or catering. We had enough time to practice walking down the aisle, entrances, and setting up personal decorations. Since I did not do catering, we set up our own food displays and brought all utensils needed since the venue does not provide anything for the food or drink services even with catering. There is a kitchen near the dining area.
We had less than 120 people (including children) that attended. The venue can accommodate up to 140 people but will charge $10 for each additional person not listed on the contract amount.
David and Lisa were very thoughtful in our planning and made sure we were happy with our day. I would recommend that if you do not have a day of coordinator to hire one (I would be willing to do it for any future bride. DM me at allisonnaidoo21@gmail.com). I did all the planning and coordinating myself which was easy up until the big day where I needed someone else to answer questions on the big day. We were able to get ready at the venue Saturday morning and had the option for the bride and groom to stay Friday before the wedding, and Saturday night after the wedding in the suite. The suite also doubles as the girls dressing room and there is a boys dressing room near the girls. I would recommend having hair and makeup come to you at the venue since there is a dedicated space to get ready!
I have no regrets choosing this venue and extremely thankful to David and Lisa for all of their help.
