wed people to enjoy the dancing, wander through the gardens or enjoy each others company. I can't even say enough about the staff. Leslie and her team are absolutely amazing.
Leslie and Kelly (and all of the other staff there) were so very helpful, energetic and excited for us right from the very beginning! They helped make sure I had thought of everyt...
hing I would need to make my day as perfect as could be. The venue is extraordinarily beautiful! Who wouldn't want to have a tropical getaway wedding right at home! The event really went out of their way to make sure there was plenty of parking for my guests even though there were a lot of people trying to come take homecoming photos outside on our day. And they were very helpful getting set up and cleaning up to make sure we had everything ready to go on time and got out on time. I highly recommend this venue to any bride looking for something different than your average banquet hall.
Not only is this location so beyond beautiful the staff is also wonderful. My wedding was by far the best I have ever been to...not that I am partial. I look forward to going back ...
for years to come and watching it grow and change!
