Bella Collina is absolutely amazing! I have nothing but great things to say about this venue and the people who run it. From the first moment I stumbled upon Bella I knew it was going to be the one. Being an out of state bride it was important to me to find something that was all inclusive. The entire experience from day one was stress free. Erin was so helpful and was always available to answer any and all questions. Getting to sit down for the day of interviews and meet all our vendors was phenomenal. All my vendors were awesome! From Culinary Visions, Bake me happy, Soft touch flowers, DJ creativity and Brian Anthony Photography, they all helped to make my wedding everything I could have hoped for. The day of crew was so amazing. Kara and Ma were the best. They helped alleviate any stress I had and made the day run seamlessly. All my guests were so impressed with our wedding and have not stop talking about our wedding! I highly recommend booking with Bella!
