Taken from an email that we sent to Lori, the event coordinator @Memorytown! “Whew, it's been a week since our big event, and we are still recovering! :) Please know that we are so grateful for you (especially you! you really took care of us!), your service, your staff (Curtis the bartenders and servers) , and all of the intricate workings that made "our" event for our only daughter a tremendous success! Jake and I can't believe how seamless everything was, and there was not one thing that disrupted our special day! From the vendors, to the cake, and the dinner, everything was amazing! Even the weather decided to cooperate as the day progressed! Our friends and family had such a wonderful time and have complimented the event, as the most fun wedding ever! Thank you again and again! Somehow I missed the entire cocktail hour with regard to seeing and eating the buffet; but I relished the passed horderves! I hope Katie took pictures of it inside! I would publish a review anywhere you'd like, 5 Stars! “
