After getting engaged, we decided to have our wedding in Florida instead of Hawaii, where we currently live. Planning an out-of-state wedding was challenging, but I found "The Gran...d Ol’ Barn," now "The Grand 721," online and fell in love with it. After a virtual tour and hearing about everything included, we were sold. The Grand 721 offered extensive support in planning and decoration, beautiful getting ready rooms, delicious food options, and additional bonuses for booking quickly.
Booking with The Grand 721 was easy, and we received a lot of support. We appreciated the military discount and even got to vote on the barn's new coastal gray color. In March 2024, we visited the venue and were blown away by its beauty. The tasting with their catering was amazing, and working with Lyric made communication easy and informative. Making changes to the menu and guest count was convenient, and we had until two weeks before the wedding to finalize details.
A month before the wedding, we were provided with a month-of coordinator, Hannah, who was incredible. She relieved so much stress by creating a timeline, communicating with vendors, and helping with decorations. On the wedding day, Hannah ensured everything ran smoothly, allowing Christian and me to enjoy our day. The staff constantly checked on us, making sure we were okay and promptly addressing any needs.
Planning a wedding out-of-state is challenging, but working with Hannah and The Grand 721 was effortless. They were always quick to reply, helpful, and accommodating. If you're looking for a beautiful venue that is easy to work with, has numerous decorating options, and makes you feel like their top priority, I highly recommend The Grand 721 with Hannah as your coordinator. Thank you, Hannah and The Grand 721, for making our Harry Potter-themed wedding perfect and the best day of our lives!
