Perfect Planner and Problem Solver for the Most Stunning Venue
My husband and I selected Black Horse Inn as our wedding venue because we felt a warm connection to the owner. A few months before our wedding, Michele Debildt became the new owner and onsite wedding planner, and what a pleasant surprise this turned out to be! Michele made sure every detail from conversations with her predecessor were captured and ensured things ran smoothly on our big day. From finding my father the perfectly sized dress shirt to replace the one he forgot to pack for the big day, to working through multiple contingencies for the bizarre weather forecast in the days leading up to our wedding, to saving our ceremony when the shuttle transporting guests to our venue lost its muffler, Michele turned all of these unforeseen imperfections into perfect wedding day memories. Even better, we've enjoyed building a friendship with Michele, even exchanging holiday cards in the months since our wedding. It was so nice to work with someone who made me feel like a bride not only on the day of my wedding, but in the lead up and the months and weeks since!
