Happy Wife Happy Life Weddings and Events Venue

and they made everything come to life so beautifully. Devonne was INCREDIBLE. She is the sweetest and put everything together so well. Our bartender was the best, always on top of things and kept the grooms drinks coming 🤣❤️ The venue itself and the views were breathtaking. So thankful for a great experience.

owners/management of this venue (before getting into it I should mention I was the groom for the first wedding of 2020 for them so this is from my perspective). Holy crap were they bad. So around July/August I believe, the person we booked the venue from got fired for showing up on the job drunk (lovely). So that person ended up taking EVERYTHING. Payments, records, folders, etc. The owners had to contact my wife through Facebook. FACEBOOK!!!!! Saying that her and my in laws needed to redo the contract. If they didn't do that, we could have been going to a venue where they booked it for someone else even though we paid. They wanted another $1000 down payment when we already paid that, but remember, the original lady took all the records. So my in-laws had to find a bank statement showing that they paid (which they did). Then the venue wanted to tack on an extra $4000 of payments for miscellaneous things. When asked to itemize what they were paying for, they said that they do not do that. HUGE red flag there! The day before the wedding we had the rehearsal dinner and there was no water throughout the whole venue. No water for toilets or sinks. Had about 3ish hours of no water. Then on THE DAY OF THE WEDDING, an employee, Devon, had the fricking nerve to show up unannounced (yes, I get it, they own the venue but I digress), go to the bridal suite where my wife was getting ready for the big day and my mother in law helping her, stand there awkwardly for a couple minutes, then asked my mother in law about her needing to pay for other stuff. ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS ASKING FOR MONEY THE DAY OF THE WEDDING DAY!!! Also, there was a wasp problem and want to know what Devon said when we addressed it? "I don't know what you want ME to do about that, there is a fly swatter in the kitchen." Horrible!!!! God forbid a guest or family member be allergic to wasps and get stung. If you decide to have your wedding there, then go for it. The wedding was wonderful and it was a very joyous occasion. But I HIGHLY, HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend making sure you know exactly what you are paying for and to have them itemize it and to make a copy of your contract (or at least take a picture of it). Also, be aware of them adding more to any estimates. They make you pay the deposit, agree on a package, then when you look at how much it will cost, they charge you more than what you originally talked about, making you either pay for those charges, or leave and lose your deposit. I'm sure they make a few thousand dollars just by doing that. Thanks for reading. Now let's see if the owners will respond to this review. Good luck to the Brides and Grooms to be!

was part of it but no one made an effort to clarify what the previous coordinator had done and it caused a lot of unnecessary stress. We had to hire an outside coordinator a month before our wedding to take over for us because we were worried about how our wedding was being handled. Our day of coordinator reported having a hard time dealing with them even after the wedding. The communication was lacking, catering was a let down as well, several guests reported not getting an entrée because there wasn’t enough food. We paid for a certain number of people, and we had less than that show up so there should have been plenty. The unused alcohol brought by the guests also was not returned to them. We have tried to clarify all of this with the venue but it has been a week and we have not received a response.
