“We had our wedding in the ballroom last weekend and like always it was stunning! We had no issues at all but with any questions they were on it right away. The ladies in the office are wonderful along with all the bartenders and setup crew! Thank you for helping with our beautiful day!”
“Your staff is amazing! From Dee & Sierra, to the bartenders – everyone was so friendly! I can’t tell you how many compliments we received! I know we had a wild group so THANK YOU! From the bottom of our hearts for putting up with us and for helping make our day perfect! You guys are the best!”
“I can’t thank all of you enough! Kevin may not remember me, but I did horse camp a few years there at the fairgrounds. To be able to come back and have my wedding reception in the same place I had so many memories is a blessing! Thank you all again! It was a perfect day/night!”
“I would love to plan another event here because it was beautiful and super easy to work with.”
“Everything was prefect! Thank you for making my special day so wonderful!”
“Both the bartenders were extremely great, the security staff was also awesome and even helped us pack up boxes. Great experience overall. Appreciated all the help through this difficult year of wedding planning!”
The whole staff is phenomenal, they go over the top to make sure you are relaxed and ready for your big day.
