Reviewed On 9/02/2016 by K M
Estes is a beautiful location to have a ceremony, large or small. The reception area is close by, and everything was set up nicely. There is also some nice green space across the street on the Asbury campus that is great for pictures. The recep...
tion area has quite a bit of stuff you can use for centerpieces at no charge, which can save you quite a bit of money. We had the rehearsal dinner at the Asbury Inn for a small charge. We used an outside caterer because Pioneer Catering could not do a vegan wedding. Christine was so great in helping with all the details! She (and Josiah) were very competent and excellent at answering my numerous questions. She was willing to meet with me many times prior to the wedding date. Susan (who helped with the wedding day details and timeline) was equally great. She knew her stuff. She asked me the little detail questions that I'd never considered (like how bright the lighting should be in the chapel). The day of the wedding, which was off-and-on rainy, she made sure that I stayed dry, even when that meant she got a bit wet. She also helped coordinate and wrangle the 9 flower girls and boys I had in the wedding. During the reception, Susan was there to make sure things were done on time. I wished at times she was actually less visible (so that I could relax more), but I'm being nit-picky. Better she do her job too well than let the day go to crap; Susan definitely did the former! Both women went above and beyond. The ONLY thing that I'm not a fan of is regarding the parking; even with signs, the parking, chapel and reception are can be a bit confusing. Asbury did provide us some signs, which are sturdy and nice. But I'd recommend you get a few extra signs or perhaps even use balloons so that guests have no questions. Overall, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this place!

Our wedding coordinator Christine was amazing! I can't imagine having done this without her. So professional, organized and classy. Facilities of course were great. We look forward to more memories here.

help, I was able to enjoy my special day and let them take care of the details/stressors. Having the ceremony in Estes Chapel and then a reception immediately following in the Dining Hall was elegant and easy for guests--many of whom had traveled from out of state. With the Asbury Inn located on campus, having a wedding at Asbury is the perfect package deal. I highly recommend it!

Response from the Vendor on 05/22/2012
I am very surprised and saddened by your review and would like to address each issue. In an email sent to the groom on October 24th, you were informed that we do not allow any outside food, and both of you seemed fine with that and chose your ...
menu here in January. It was also stated up front and written in our policy, that due to health regulations, we can not allow any food to be taken outside our facilities. I was the one who handled your wine glasses. I discovered them on the cake table after family had taken out your other decorations. I carried them outside and asked if I could place them in the box with the glass candy bowls and bubble wrap. No one knew where that box was. I asked if anyone had keys to your car so that I could place them in there for you. No one had keys. I asked if anyone had a place in a vehicle where they could take them so they would not get broken, and a couple people shrugged their shoulders, but did not want to take them. Someone had some gift bags from the wedding and a pair of shoes laying in the grass. I set the glasses there and went inside to find a box. When I returned, they were gone. I emailed you and told him that I found your box for the wine glasses and apologized that I had left them in the grass and explained why. I’m sure your entire day felt rushed as the family situation early on put you more than two hours behind schedule. We expected to have tested the slide show and music on Friday, but the laptop was not given to us until about 40 minutes before the reception. Rather than call Sam (owner of the laptop) over from her duties as one of your attendants, we called in a tech person who had the day off to help us get it going in order for your guests to see it when they arrived. Each step of your reception was not made without your consent. I asked if you were ready to cut the cake because guest were finished with their meal. I asked if you were ready to dance because guests had seen the slide show several times, and there was nothing else happening. I asked if you were ready to blow bubbles and walk out because guests were beginning to leave. I wish you would have told me no, or let me be aware that you felt rushed. I would have gladly held off on any of those events at your request. We did not ask any guest to leave, and I always try to offer informative and helpful information to everyone who attends our events. I am deeply saddened that anyone left here feeling that they were spoken to rudely. Please accept my apology. I hope you will be able to reflect on the positive aspects of the day, like your daughters toast, and not the negative perspective of what happened. You were a beautiful bride and I hope you and your husband find many years of happiness together.

romised us a steamer on the day of the wedding, but the steamer leaked, and they did not provide us with enough water to steam the bridesmaids' dresses. The wrinkles appeared to fall out on their own by the time of the ceremony, though, so it worked out fine.

y only complaint was the flowers somehow got mixed up and the groomsmen ended up wearing purple corsages instead of white boutonnieres for the pictures before the ceremony. If there was a question about the labels, I would have appreciated someone asking me. Otherwise, fantastic!)
