Superstition Manor

it’s all thanks to BRI!!!!😍 She was such an amazing coordinator from the start and she absolutely brought our vision to life! She was always so prompt and helpful-She accommodated every request and always did it with a huge smile on her face. Planning a wedding during COVID seemed impossible at times but Bri and all of the staff members managed to mitigate so much of our stress and made us feel like everything was going to be okay...AND IT WAS! Better than okay-Everything was absolutely PERFECT! We could not have asked for a better day and the Superstition Manor team made it happen! We are eternally grateful for everything that they did for us. Despite COVID and the uncertainty of these times, they will work with you and bring you the most beautiful and incredible day. The location of this venue is incredible as it is but having a team of staff members that are truly committed to their couples is just unreal. We are so happy that we had our reception here and we will always hold the Superstition Manor team close to our hearts. They really gave us the most beautiful start to our happily ever after and we will always be grateful for their services! We will definitely be recommending this venue to our friends and family! Book this venue-You won’t be disappointed!! 🥰😍

rea. Read the contract you are about to sign and review past testimonials. After what my fiancé and I went through this summer, I would not recommend Superstition Manor to anyone. The early communication with our event coordinator, Rebecca was good. She was responsive and answered our questions promptly. Since this was a destination wedding, Rebecca helped us with the decor ideas by sending us photos of different options and us making the selections. Everything was going smoothly until Covid hit. Our original ceremony date was June 19th. This was just weeks after the entire country experienced a mandator lockdown of some capacity. Our home state of Wisconsin, was still partially shut down and Covid infections were still on the rise. Many states had a social distancing policy and indoor gatherings were limited to 10 individuals or less. Many experts predicted that we would not have a vaccine by the end of 2020 and due to the contagious nature of the virus, it wouldn’t go away on its own. With all this going on, my fiancé and I had to put the safety of our friends and family before our desires to get married. Traveling out of state and by plane was a danger to our well being and a risk we were not willing to take. After being completely transparent with Rebecca and the venue owner, John Burns about our reservations with proceeding with our ceremony in light of a pandemic, we were given two options. Option 1, we could reschedule, but it had to be within 2020 and option 2, we could cancel, but we would not be given a refund. Keep in mind at this point, we had already paid thousands of dollars towards the wedding contract. This is the lack of compassion we were greeted with in an already horrible situation. Based on this and listening to the health experts, we decided that our only option was to cancel. Fast forward to today, where we have not been shown any empathy by the venue or any of its staff. We paid $3,000 for a ceremony that never took place, food that was never eaten, and services never rendered. We understand businesses have contracts and policies to protect themselves and under normal circumstances, agree with these policies. However at present time we are in a global pandemic. The government has provided small businesses with aid packages to support them during these uncertain times. There is no need for the business to pray on and take advantage of soon to be husband and wives. A wedding should be a magical experience, not a moment in time that you regret. I strongly regret our decision for entering into contract with John and Superstition Manor. This business only cares about making money regardless of the situation. Fellow grooms and brides look elsewhere.

ar, I, in no way, am an unreasonable person and have compassion for businesses at this time. I completely understand how hard it is for everyone involved However, the way this business has handled themselves is unbelievable and I feel people should be aware of these poor business practices!! My fiancé and I found this place back in December of last year. It seemed like I nice place for a wedding and it helped they offered a military discount. In January we signed a contract and started making payments on our dream wedding for us and 98 of our closest friends and family. Well we all know what happens next COVID hit Arizona and things were locked down. Our day was approaching and we were all on lock down. We couldn't get the dress fitted we couldn't pick up the rings everything was closed. We contacted Brittney and she found us a new date. August 29th we thought by then things would be normal. Well June happens and lock down all over again. The governor says no gathering larger than 50 people with social distancing. All of the mayors tell us we have to wear masks. I start to panic and reached out to Elizabeth, our wedding coordinator, who told me not to worry they had a wedding of 125 people the night before. But if I was nervous I could reschedule for free one more time but the only Saturday's for the year were the Saturday after Thanksgiving or the Saturday after Christmas. Those were my options. If we wanted to schedule into 2021, at that point there would be additional fees. Knowing that was not right I called John the owner To tell him our situation. He tells me if you want to cancel "I get it." Just needed to fill out their form and they will get us canceled. The next day we fill out the form and send it in. We find out later that day not only are we canceled for a wedding they could never host due to COVID but they want the total of the contract. $8,800 to include all of the gratuity for the wait staff and the deposit for the photo booth for that night. After we canceled we were told we should have offered you smaller party size whoops we forgot. So here we are out $5,700 and a bill for the rest. So I guess the bottom line is if you are looking for an ethical place to host your wedding. This is not it. Spend your time read the reviews. Don't let them take advantage of you like they did me and my fiancé.

getting married there. Well fast forward 14 years later and I signed my contract to be married there next year!! The employees of this venue truly make you feel like family and your day is so important to them! From planning to just simply chatting and getting to know them the venue has been great! With a perfect location that’s not too far of a drive with the picturesque Superstition Mountains in the background this venue is sure to make all your guests say “WOW”. I’m So excited for 2021 and I can’t wait to continue to plan my big day! ❤️ Thank you for making my dreams come true!

were made, but in the end were not delivered. I purchased the "VIP" package. So everything was included , I paid extra for having the venue/both halls/upstairs &downstairs to myself. The day of the there was another wedding, a rehersal, and even a tour while I'm taking pictures in the reception hall. I had a fabulous cake, but was only able to enjoy ONE bite of it because one of coordinators (staff) DROPPED my cake on the floor while trying to move it. Then they tried to serve it even after it was on the floor. My guests were appalled. They turned off the main light chandelier while I did my first dance. Even after spending 5hours (printing /designing)on table cards the staff taped them to a mirror all crooked and smooshed. Some even overlapping each other. We were promised the venue from 8am-10pm and by 7pm they already started to pick up half the place. My sparklers were not out with the customized matches we bought. For the ceremony they played the wrong music and ruined the reveal, they shut the doors after my husband and everyone already saw me. They refused some of my guests dinner even though there was so much left over. They recommended a dj company that completely did not follow the timeline and did toasts before anyone had anything to drink. These are only SOME of the many things they ruined. We tried calling after the wedding and no answer for over a week from the owner John. When he did finally call and my husband tried to tell him everything that happened he yelled and said he didn't want to hear his knit picking amongst other things and hung up. This place is beautiful. BUT NOT WORTH IT. please please save your hard earned money and go with a venue that will make your day special and will be professional!

ived that morning and saw my dreams come to life! Through out the night, she was always checking to see if we needed anything and packed up all of our things before we left. Rebecca went above and beyond and made our wedding day the BEST day ever. This is an amazing venue with incredible views and staff (the waiter even had a dance off with our friends). I could not be more thankful for Superstition Manor!

ven on a tight budget you can still have a beautiful wedding. They really work with you to make sure that you are getting the best. Also the fact that the venue handles the catering and the bar is great because the food is excellent and it's fewer vendors to coordinate with. I highly recommend Superstition Manor.

made sure everything was perfect and ran smoothly. She truly made me have a stress free day and calmed my nerves. She was completely honest with us and ensured the day was all about us. Our guests had the best time and raved how beautiful the venue was. I couldn’t have asked for a better wedding!

ingy ballroom (which seemed to be the case for most places in our price range), but this place literally has it all! Amazing tuscan architecture (beautiful inside and out), stunning desert landscape, lovely garden area... and all at a fraction of the cost that other venues were asking!!! Seriously amazing! Additionally, they took care of everything. As an all-inclusive venue, it was so easy to get all the vendors together; no worrying about bringing in caterers and having the food getting cold, the florist getting lost, or not having the right hookups for the DJ, it was just all there! Taken care of because they were all familiar with the location. (Plus, all their approved vendors were equally as amazing.) I also want to note how organized the whole thing was; our coordinator, Elizabeth, was fantastic! She took care of everything and communicated with me throughout the entire planning process. She went out of her way to make sure that everything was exactly the way we wanted, acted as a body guard so that we could actually enjoy our wedding meal, and even lightly entertained our flower girls. At the end of the night, she and the staff had packed up all of the decor and trinkets and I literally did not have to worry about a thing. I just seriously want to thank her for being so spectacular. The owner, John, was also very accommodating and our guests also spoke very highly of the venue; several guests mentioned to me how comfortable they felt there and commented that the staff (and recommended vendors) were over all very polite. The venue had seamless indoor and outdoor space/ seating and I think this contributed to the comfort level of our guests. I highly recommend this venue to any couple looking for a stress-free, desert wedding :)

, it was actually VERY AFFORDABLE! Superstition Manor is built for weddings, and they are prepared to provide you with all the the table decorations, chairs, and signage that you could ever dream of! In addition to free decorations, they also acted as our caterer! Before the wedding we met for a food tasting in which we were able to try hundreds of different appetizers, entrees, and side dishes for free! Additionally, because Superstition Manor has a great relationship with other wedding services in the area, we were able to get a great discount on both our photographers and DJ! They also provided us with an amazing coordinator, Elizabeth, that took care of everything for us, so planning our wedding was a breeze! If you are planning on getting married, take a tour of the place and choose your date soon! You will not regret it!!

ld highly recommend this venue for your wedding day!

ld've dreamed! Highly recommend this venue!

, all of the staff were so helpful and professional. I highly recommend this venue. We chose sugarlips for the cake. It was beautiful and delicious.We chose save this memory for the DJ. Taylor did a fabulous job, everyone loved the games. If you want a very low stress wedding and reception this is the place to go. Thank you Superstition Manor for everything.

's every need was met but was so organized that the wedding went like clockwork! we could not have asked for better service or a more beautiful wedding for our son and new daughter-in-law

ecor, decorations around the venue, they set EVERYTHING up, credits for vendors, etc.). They also have done a lot of upgrading to their venue over the past two years making it even more dreamy every step of the way. It was a relief to not have to go out and get decorations for tables and around the venue, they do it all! Rebecca was so amazing and she answered all of my (many) questions in such a timely manner, she made the whole process so stress free which was so great. All of our guests keep talking about how gorgeous everything turned out. Would highly recommend this venue to anyone and everyone!

oved the fact that all the linens and decor were included in the price. The food and liquor options were priced really well and there were so many different choices. The bridal and groom suites were amazing to get ready in (and party in for the guys). The views are beautiful and made for AMAZING pictures!! We are so thankful for such an amazing day!!

O complaints, our wedding was beyond perfect because of this venue!!

better than I could have imagined!

ear a complaint about the food being cold or not warm enough. Décor: We seriously didn’t have to purchase/rent any décor, the manor had everything, and it was great. Their decor room was massive, and they had different options/styles. When we did our table settings, they were very open with our ideas and made a perfect match with our ideas and what they had available. They even made our table numbers to match more with our flowers/theme. Venue: We had the whole manor to ourselves and it was so nice not worrying about running into another wedding. We did our ceremony on the south lawn and used the south hall as our cocktail hour. Our guest then moved into the ballroom for the reception. The venue had a lot of great settings for pictures. All of our pictures turned out great! Vendors: We used all the recommended vendors on their list. We used Sugarlips for our cake, Moellux Events for our florals and Save this Memory for the DJ, Photography and Videography. We didn’t have any problems with any of them. Wedding Coordinator: Elizabeth was amazing! We are so glad Elizabeth took our account when our first coordinator left! She was fantastic and helped in every way possible. She took my ideas/visions and made them come to life, ie, our Boba Bar. She knew exactly what we wanted and we wouldn’t have changed a thing. She was always on hand and I could email/text/call her about anything. Before our grand entrance, she had the kitchen make us extra appetizers because we didn’t get any during cocktail hour. She went above and beyond for us. Honestly, if we had to do it all over again, we wouldn’t have changed a thing. It was such a wonderful and easy day for us. Thank you so much Superstition Manor!

estions no matter the time or day. Everything went better than I could've imagined. All the recommended vendors were on point. Piece of cake for cupcakes and top tier cake, Lasting Impressions for floral-Brenda Hon, Save this Memory for our DJ. JC kept our Guests entertained the entire time- guests are still talking about all the fun they had. Sharley was our photographer and we couldn't have asked for anyone better she is amazing, absolutely love her work, she took our engagement pictures as well. Our officiant Joe with weddings to remember was wonderful to work with. The colors we chose were my favorite together. Rose Bridal for the tuxedos and who would've thought Dress barn for bridesmaids dresses, and lastly Azteca Bridal for my Dress, Ofelia is super friendly and helpful. We went to a lot of open houses to find our Venue and this place is by far the best place with reasonable prices. The food was amazing the jalapeno poppers were a hit!! I just want every newly engaged couple to pick this place because its definitely a wedding venue everyone will talk about forever especially if they use all the vendors recommended, they know how to all come together to make the perfect day!!

could not recommend this place more!

eriously the BEST!! The food was great, the venue was beautiful and the preferred vendors we chose from their list all were amazing. I cannot say enough good things about this venue. We had the best wedding day ever!

the bride and groom. My husband loved it so much that he arrived at 9:00 am for our 2:30 pm wedding to spend the day in the groom's suite. My nieces (who were my flower girls) also noticed the spacious suites and asked me, "How can they afford to have a salon in here?" I got ready at the venue, including showering, which was so convenient not to be running around town the day of my wedding for makeup and hair. Lunch was provided so no one was hangry (hungry and angry) which is always a plus! They specialize in weddings here and that is apparent. The background of the Superstition Mountains during our ceremony was lovely! The decor around the site is all tailored to weddings and love. The dinner setting looked very nice! We received so many compliments from our friends and family on details that made the place beautiful for our big day, most of which were put in place by the venue. Our guests loved the photo both and we now have a super fun scrapbook with their photos. The candy bar and coffee bars were a hit! The slideshow with photos of my husband and I from when we were little until we were dating got tons of "oohs" and "aahs" and laughter during the dinner. We used the DJ, photographer and videographer they partner with, Save This Memory, which ended up being a great choice. Because they have done so many weddings at the venue, they have mastered the art. We can't wait to see our photos but were very pleased that they had selected beautiful locations and poses for us to get the photos done quickly and get us back to the party! Overall, we had a great experience working with the staff there. We loved that it was all inclusive. There was one set price and no matter which options we selected there were no up-charges or hidden fees. The owners and their staff are very professional, responded to every email/text/phone call quickly and went above and beyond to make our big day so special! I would highly recommend this location to my friends and family.
