I was able to set up my reservation with the Oldest House via phone calls and email conversations. I called many places before using this vendor. I chose The Oldest House first and...
foremost because the people were very nice to me. They were willing to answer any questions that I had of them- and didn't have attitude about it.
I secondly chose this place because of how beautiful the gardens are.
Everything was set up before I got there. I enjoyed the use of the Bridal Room because it had an air conditioner :) (it was 90 when we got married).
I honestly had a beautiful wedding and the pictures are one of a kind!
