Absolutely stunning venue if you’re looking for a classic elevated backyard wedding feel. Every detail was perfect and we would get married there every weekend if we could! The food was amazing, from breakfast, lunch, dinner, to banquet. Service was fantastic. Our guests are still calling to tell us how beautiful everything was and how delicious the food was. Our stay was great. I was in the tower suite and there was plenty of room for my 10 bridesmaids flower girls and moms coming in and out. I didn’t want to leave!! We actually extended our stay and considered doing it again. Carla was fantastic!! If you’re planning an event with her you will learn she does everything she can to make your vision come to life.
