As a planner there are many times vendors put obstacles in your way. In my experience with probably 25+ weddings that I have done at The Sheraton PCB they are some of the best. Working with Karen and Sam over the past few years has been a great experience. They are willing to work with my clients and work through all of the requests made. Always willing to work with each situation and they realize every wedding is different and every wedding comes with its own set of demands. They work through them with ease. In terms of the Venue. It is a beautiful resort with beautiful landscaping and the wedding venues are just fabulous. I love referring my clients to The Sheraton because I know they will be well taken care of. The make my job easier.
