After having my wedding here a month ago- here is my honest opinion.
We met with Maria and were originally quoted a certain amount an hour to rent the room. She went on vacation b...
efore we could sign the contract and I met up with her when she got back and could fit me in and it doubled in price.. she said she would ask the owner to bring it to the original price due to the circumstances.. it never happened.
It gave us bad vibes but I convinced my fiancé to go through with it because I was tired of looking at venues. Maria also mentioned that there would be no golfers in the background during our ceremony. Yet we have numerous photos with a guy in the background pretty close to us practicing his short hand.
And she casually mentioned in a joking way that awhile ago they had a bad storm and the power short circuited and the women’s locker room so they took over the men’s locker room. Well guess what happened on our wedding day? No ac in the women’s locker room. It was practically a sauna. They provided two stand fans which did nothing. My hair frizzed almost instantly. We took over the guys locker room but they only have mirrors above the sinks starts at about 5 feet 8 inches high. Every single one of my bridesmaids had to sit on the counter in the sink to do their hair and makeup. Our contract also said we had to pick up our decorations by the next day. They told us at the END of the night the centerpieces need to go now or they are throwing them out. Who wants to know at 1030 pm after their wedding they need to coordinate someone to pack them up NOW? I made them by hand and they took over an hour a piece. It was upsetting I couldn’t facilitate someone taking them home and having to toss them. We planned on picking them up the following morning. We put hours into those centerpieces.
But at the end of the day, we got married. And the food was surprisingly delicious.
I’m just upset about doubling the rental price and it sounded like she very well knew the women’s locker room wouldn’t have AC. We could have made accommodations if we knew before hand and not 4 hours before my wedding and scrambling for the bridesmaids and grooms men’s to get ready.
If you’re having a wedding with only a few months to plan and can deal with a few headaches, get married here. But if you have sometime and don’t want to deal with the headache and last minute issues that clearly could have been addressed earlier if they were honest.. I would have your wedding elsewhere
