My new husband and I just had our wedding at the Carlisle on Friday, and we could not be happier with our experience. Truly, the Carlisle was an absolutely wonderful place to have our wedding reception, and I'd recommend it to anybody. From the... beginning of our search process, the staff at the Carlisle (primarily Stephanie and Maureen) were kind, helpful, and timely in getting back to me. From the time we booked them, I must have sent Stephanie close to 50 emails with all sorts of questions, and she was always kind and incredibly thorough with her responses. Another great thing about the Carlisle is that they were extremely flexible and generous with the contract. There were some aspects of different packages that we loved, some that we didn't love, but Stephanie and Maureen worked with us to be sure that the package we decided on (from the appetizers to the food to the liquor to the chair covers) was exactly perfect for our vision. As the wedding date got closer, I knew Stephanie and Maureen had everything under control, and with SO many other things to worry about the day of, I knew that the reception hall was in good hands. We had a very large wedding (250+ people), so we had two of the three rooms, and it looked absolutely stunning. Even though I wasn't there to actually set everything up, the Carlisle staff took care of everything, and when we walked in the doors, EVERYTHING was executed exactly as we wanted it to be (things like our place cards, card table, grandparents' photo table, table numbers, favors, etc- all perfect). As the night went on, the whole staff was attentive to our needs, even with tiny details like the temperature of the room! The bartenders (we had two bars set up because of the size of the wedding) were fabulous, and many of our friends told us how generous they were with the drinks they were making. The biggest and most common compliment we got throughout the night was how delicious the food was. It was SO GOOD. We had the minestrone soup, Carlisle salad, chicken, steak, garlic mashed potatoes, green beans with red peppers, and hot fudge sundaes, and all of the guests were raving about everything. We even had several guests with severe dietary restrictions, and the chefs made sure that everyone had a meal that met their needs. (A huge perk was getting to take some of the food home, too!) Oh, and the cake was exceptional. They were all so happy to learn that the staff wrapped up the cake and was handing it out as people left the reception! Even when the night ended, the whole staff worked quickly to help us gather all of our personal items. I truly did not have to worry about a thing the entire night. My husband and I are so, so happy with our experience. I don't think it could have been any more perfect! Thanks, Carlisle :)
