This is the PERFECT venue to have a wedding - can't recommend TRAINE enough!! Richelle was an absolute dream to work with, and from our very first conversation, it was SO evident that she cared deeply about making our wedding day as special as possible. Truly, we couldn't have asked for a better site to host our wedding. Many of our guests commented at how beautiful the venue was, and how smoothly everything ran on our wedding day - they were all very impressed! If you are looking for a venue that will make all your wedding preparations 10x easier, smoother, and more professional - this is the place for you! Thank you Richelle/TRAINE for everything!! :)
