Really loved our experience at Mountain Shadow Events. The scenery was gorgeous, making the photos even more amazing than we would have ever expected. The owner was so pleasant and kind to work with, making it easier to plan for everything. Details that mattered to us, mattered to them as well and would definitely recommend this venue for even just the scenery alone.
