Colonial Country Club made our wedding planning super easy and stress free! I’m going to divide into sections as it is hard to put everything into one blurb.
Event coordinator: We initially worked with Michael when we started planning. He answ...ered all of our questions, gave my mom and brother a tour first since we weren’t in the state, and took care of us during the tasting when we were down in Florida from North Carolina. Unfortunately, he moved on to another company a month before our wedding. Fortunately, they had Sheila fill in. She was great as well! We didn’t meet her until the day of the wedding at the reception, but she was well aware of all our wants, and flawlessly took over. She was quick to respond to any questions we had. Her and her staff executed everything perfectly.
Venue and Amenities: the venue is beautiful!! All our guests, and even our photographer, said how nice the reception area was inside and out. We got married in December so they were decorated for Christmas; which added the perfect touch to our theme. The amenities include in our price was a great value and well worth it. Between all that was included (event coordinator, cocktail hour, meal, alcohol, cake, uplighting for the dance floor, linens, plates and utensils, etc), we weren’t worried at all! Plus between Michael and Sheila, it was like we had a wedding planner.
Wedding Day: everything went smoothly! Enough seats and tables for everyone and everything! The waiters were so polite and attentive. Our guests got there first but when my husband and I got there, they made sure we at least got some food during the cocktail hour! The food was well presented and delicious! My favorite were probably the hor d’oeuvres! (We had the fried Conch, beef Wellington’s, and coconut shrimp). During the cake cutting ceremony, we realized we forgot a knife, whoops! But the staff brought one out right to us! Awesome customer service.
After: one of the vendors didn’t deliver a good batch of the product on the day of our wedding, with no fault to Colonial. They improvised the best they could! Not a beat was missed. And they made it up to us. Again, great customer service.
I definitely recommend Colonial Country Club if you’re looking for a beautiful venue, and don’t want to have to worry about the little stuff. They take care of all of that for you.
