I have had the pleasure of DJing at a couple of events so far at Walnut Hall. The space is beautiful, and well maintained. The owners and staff are helpful, kind, and downright just great people. I personally have not had a chance to tour the other buildings on their property, but my wife has and she was speechless (in a good way)! You will not be disappointed with Walnut Hall, unless they are already booked for your date. And I cannot wait to go back and help many more couples in the future celebrate their big day at Walnut Hall!!
