Beyond magical

Wow. We were blown away. This was the most relaxing experience imaginable. We had such an amazing night. The staff were superb and Brandee made sure everything was handled before passing it over to Liz for the evening. The food was spectacular, our guests continue to tell us how much fun they had and how beautiful the the venue was. We absolutely loved it!

My in-laws live in St. James and we were excited to choose the Chapel in St. James and The Founder's Club for our wedding and reception venues. Our rehearsal dinner was also in St. James at The Reserve Club. I began working with Brandee about 10 months prior to our July 2nd wedding and from the first contact knew that she would be providing a wealth of information. She is extremely professional but very personable as well! Brandee walked me through every single detail from start to finish and helped with the details that I hadn't even thought of! I was able to communicate all my wants and needs to Brandee and feel comfortable that she would deliver on my vision. She even took the time on busy weekends to meet with me several times during the process to walk through details with me as well as answer questions.

We had a very small and intimate wedding and even though our numbers were small, Brandee and her staff never made us feel like we were small. We were made to feel like our party was the most important! Brandee had the same staff that served us for the rehearsal dinner, at out reception as well. I couldn't have been more thrilled! They were prompt, courteous, professional and even remembered our preferences at the reception from being with us the night previous! This team made my husband and I as well as our guests feel like a million bucks!

The presentation and food must also be noted for being beyond excellent. We had the Social Collection Wedding package and everything from the appetizers to the prime rib carving station were spot on and some of the tastiest I've eaten. The action stations were manned by true professionals who were eager to please!

We honestly can't speak highly enough of this venue and its staff. If you are looking to impress your guests as well as be impressed yourself, I don't feel that you could choose a better venue!
