I honestly don't know where to begin from the beginning Heather was amazing. She was extremely helpful when touring and her prices are fair and the venue is gorgeous. Heather and Hope had amazing communication throughout the process we had it booked 2 years in advance and I always felt like I knew what was going on. At our kick off meeting to discuss vision and florals Heather saw my vision and ran with it. She did a better job than I could have even imagined. It looked straight out of a style shoot the perfect coastal garden vibes that fit the theme so well. We both have creative mindsets and I had 100% trust in her the entire process. The day of Heather was there to manage and issues and just make sure everything went smoothly and myself including my guests can say it was the best wedding we've ever been too. I still have guests a month later complimenting me on my day and how it was the most fun wedding they've attended. The flow of the venue leaves for so many cool memories and the decor is extremely customizable. 10000/10 recommend this venue!
