As you go through the wedding planning process it is so hard to know if you made the right decision. Now that everything is said and done, we can say with 100% confidence that we did. Manhattan & Whitefish were great value for money, could comf...ortably host 250 wedding guests, had incredible quality food, beautiful accommodation rooms, and provided us with the best of both worlds for a wedding that included indoor and outdoor aspects. Whitefish & Manhattan Beach were the absolute perfect venue for our wedding. We can’t even begin to express how happy we were with our choice and what a wonderful weekend we had! This review will be a bit long but let us explain why…we had a wedding of 250 people, 70 of whom were traveling in from out of state or out of country….and planned the whole wedding from abroad so our “searching” for venues completely took place online. When we first came across Whitefish & Manhattan we were first impressed with all the reviews, awards, and the affordability. When we reached out, we were connected with Crystal Glaser who would become our main point of contact. Let us take a moment to share just how important Crystal was for us. She was unbelievably responsive, patient, flexible, accommodating, fun, and overall the best perk from the venue. Throughout the planning process, she walked us through all of the potential uses of the spaces, costs, and helped us map out our special weekend. Fast forward to the actual wedding and we could not have been happier. We used Manhattan Beach for our rehearsal dinner, ceremony, and cocktail reception while we used Whitefish for the dinner/dance and to house all 250 of our guests!!! The last thing we want to highlight is how the venue really goes above and beyond for guests. They prepared all types of little signs including welcome messages and event timings, they provided us with a conference room next to the reception hall to store decorations/create our floral arrangements, they offered us a free room on our first visit and for our 1st anniversary, they had free firewood for the pit in the back, their staff always had a smile on their face and offered a helping hand, and the guests loved the hot tub, pool, and teddy bear waffles at breakfast!!! We could continue to go on about how much we appreciated everything but we will stop here. If you have any questions or doubts feel free to contact us at witt.evan@gmail.com because we would be happy to help or share photos. Thank you to all of the staff at Manhattan & Whitefish, you will be seeing us again in the future! Lots of love, The Witts!
