My husband and I could not have asked for a more beautiful wedding. We had the most stress free experience any couple could ask for and our families did not have to lift a finger. Shelia and Jeffery were so easy to work with and so organized. They provided us choices for different areas on the property to have the ceremony and reception, menu options, cake options, floral options, decor options, and photographer options to choose from. The only thing we had to provide was hair and make-up and someone to perform the ceremony. As someone who is over whelmed easily and has zero experience planning a wedding, this was a dream situation. They worked hard to understand our vision and make it happen. (We even had fireworks.)

This venue was everything I could have ever wanted and more! Sandy and her family were an absolute treasure! She was so inviting every time we were on the property. They made sure everything was set up to our liking including how I wanted the tables and chairs set up down to items being brought down to the ceremony. Their willingness to have the ceremony inside if the weather did not permit our dream outside wedding took so much stress off of me knowing I had a second option in moments notice. The venue is gorgeous and well cared for, you can truly tell they love what they do!

The Gabrella Manor team made my wedding day easy and enjoyable. The ceremony and reception was everything we imagined. It was a pleasure to work with manager, Mrs. Brenda, Brittany (assistant), Laura, and Marla (florist). The staff was enthusiastic to answer questions, patient in planning and overall hands-on. This staff gave me confidence that my “big day” would run smoothly and quelled my wedding anxiety. The venue is simply gorgeous and I’d suggest Gabrella Manor to any future bride. Ricardo and I cannot tell you enough how perfect our day truly was. Thank you again to your staff! -Ricardo & Tabbatha Mullin

The Sterling Castle was a wonderful venue for our wedding! The staff were so friendly and responsive throughout the planning process, making communication a breeze. Their facilities are absolutely beautiful too - the ballroom with its chandeliers and grand windows was the perfect backdrop for our reception. Considering the quality of the venue and service, The Sterling Castle offers exceptional value at a reasonable cost. They really aim to make wedding planning as stress-free as possible for couples by taking care of so many details themselves. We just had to provide our vision in terms of colors, menu, and guest count - they handled all the logistics seamlessly.
