If you're on the fence about which venue to go with for your wedding, ponder no further. Go with Wedgewood. Choosing WW was 100% the best decision we made out of the ENTIRE plannin...g process.
We booked our wedding date with WW 3 months before the pandemic hit. COVID changed everything. From headcount, to event execution, to whether or not we'd even be able to have a wedding at all; Suddenly everything on our checklist became a variable. All of a sudden, we were watching COVID color tiers on a daily basis to see how many guests we would actually be allowed to safely invite. Planning a wedding with a fluctuating guest list is intense, to say the least (all amid a much larger Van Gogh-style masterpiece of a year brimming with true chaos; featuring a nail biting election, record breaking wildfires, and of course a deadly global pandemic). Again, out of ALL the decisions we had to make, working with WW was irrefutably the best one. Every week, something inspired one of us to say, “I'm so glad we picked WW”.
Reliability, affordability, and most of all, compassion. The WW team knocks it out of the park in all aspects of planning AND hosting a wedding (shout out to Mandy, Sabrena, and Hayley) for their exceptional work). No matter how things were changing, we always felt like WW had our back. They didn't use cliches like “we've got you covered”, but the quality of their service naturally brought that cheesy slogan to the forefront of our minds, and boy is it a relief to know that your wedding venue is reliable and accountable. When we met with the WW team, it was immediately apparent that they're more than just catchy marketing slogans on paper; they're the real deal. The experts with all the know-how and the pros at planning out every detail.
For this level of service, WW offers the best value EVER. We were on a budget. The WW team never pressured us into any services we couldn't afford, and more importantly, never made us feel bad about being on a budget (they even provided input on ways to save money). They were warm and understanding every step of the way. And rest assured, the quality of their service does not waver with your budget. They care, no matter what your budget is.
That's what ties it all together. They care. They have compassion. You're not just a contract. When we care about something or someone, we naturally strive to achieve the best results and to bring joy and satisfaction. That's WW right there. I work as a project manager for a living, partnering with 30+ vendors at a time everyday. As a compulsive planner, I'd like to tell all of my fellow planners out there that WW does not disappoint. They overlook nothing in the planning process. And when things inevitably go a little off course on the big day; relax. The WW team already knows about it and has already made tweaks so that the rest of the day goes smoothly. They will always do their best for you (sometimes even things you don't ask for, just because they know it'll make your day better). Even the vendors they partner with, from the DJ (DJ Grammer is remarkable by the way), to the bakery, to every single one of the serving staff that night (guests relayed that the staff were very friendly and helpful) work with the same compassion. They all care. It's pretty damn spectacular. Thank you so much, WW!!
TL;DR The Wedgewood team is damn amazing. Choosing WW is the only guaranteed grand slam decision you might make in the entire planning process.
