“Planning a wedding from 2,000 miles away was definitely a challenge. We live in California, but originally from Chicago where all our families still reside. Outside of one quick visit to Meyer's Castle, all our meetings and preparations were done remotely. Their team worked with us at every step of the journey, and we couldn’t be more grateful! They were highly communicative, exceptionally helpful, and ceaselessly encouraging throughout the entire process. The estate, building, furnishings, and amenities at Meyer's Castle are undeniably beautiful and meticulously curated. The people of Meyer's Castle make it so spectacular. We would not have been successful without the incredible staff at Meyer's Castle who made our dream a reality. Their professionalism and capabilities are outstanding! The owners immediately made a positive and lasting impression on us. They made us feel like family! Our coordinator, Brenda, worked tirelessly to ensure that our vision came to life. Her abilities were on full display the day of the wedding. She not only kept us all on the same schedule, which in and of itself is impressive, but she conducted the flow of the day, with all its moving parts, seamlessly and with remarkable poise! Though their hard work behind the scenes may have gone largely unseen, their efforts were tremendously appreciated by all, especially by my husband and me. In short, Meyer's Castle frequently exceeded all of our expectations. They continuously eased the hassle of planning our big day from afar. Any concerns and anxieties we had were immediately addressed and solved by the Meyer's Castle team! We highly recommend them for any wedding or other big event on your horizon!”

“My daughter's wedding was held at the Fu Dog Garden in October, and the day was perfect. No decorations needed, as the garden is already beautiful, and the Allerton crew took care of setting up, and taking down chairs. Krissie took care of all of the details, and offered us multiple options for chair set up, bride entrance, etc. She even drove the golf cart shuttling guests back and forth (a very helpful task). I very much appreciated her patience in answering all of our questions. Highly recommend Allerton for a special event.”
