Amazing facility, food, and experience!

The price, the FOOD, the atmosphere, the staff and coordinators, everything was so seamless and amazing! We opted to have a more formal setting with assigned seating and 3 different food options for 400 people. The serving of all of that went so seamless!! Everyone completed us on the food. They also served late night pizza which was a huge hit! The neutral finishes made it really easy to match our decor to, and they set everything up for us. I really felt like they took care of everything the whole weekend. Highly recommend!!

Highly recommend Briggs Woods Conference Center

The staff were amazing. From planning our wedding to the actual day, Lynne & Kelly made sure everything was perfect. On the actual day they had the timeline down and people were they needed to be. Lights, videos, candles were all ready before the guest walked in. Our guest keep talking about the amazing food. Not to say that had it all served within minutes to everyone. We even hosted late night pizza, which was a hit. They took care of things that I hadn’t even thought about! Beautiful venue for an outdoor wedding & pictures.
