Best weddkng venue especially for a winter wedding

I highly recommend if you are planning a wedding to choose the colonial hotel. Not only is the atmosphere gorgeous and beautiful, but if you are having a winter wedding the staff will set up the venue with all the winter decor. Everyone at my wedding complimented on the hotel and decor all night. The staff that work here are amazing especially my wedding planner Mary and her assistant Emily. During the entire planning process they always got back to me right on time withbany questions or concerns that I had. My first appointment they went over all the different package choices they had for planning a wedding and they were all budget friendly. They set up all the decor I had for the wedding day beautifully. The team is talented, great hospitality, and they seriously want what's best for the married couple on their wedding day. Not only are the staff amazing, the venue itself amazing, but the food was delicious. Everyone at my wedding complimented on the food all night. Again if you are looking for a place to get married chek out the colonial hotel. You won't be disappointed!

Amazing Experience!

After getting engaged, we started researching venues. The Colonial was the closest in proximity to our home so we figured we’d venture out to check it out first. In fact, after our first tour there, we booked a date! The convenience of having everything all in one location is ideal for bridal party and for guests. Mary and the staff were wonderful start to finish. They kept our timeline on schedule, helped assemble & dissemble the decor, and checked in on us throughout the day to make sure we were good. The food was great - the portions were generous and we received many compliments throughout the evening. The bridal suite (there are multiple suites) was huge, fit everyone comfortably while getting ready. I can’t say enough nice things about our experience. I’d absolutely consider booking them as your wedding spot!
