Many thanks to Cara and her team for guiding us through COVID and helping us manage our wedding on June 6, 2020. Through all the uncertainty of this Spring, The Estate remained a calm, flexible and positive force. All of the buildings appeared to be thoroughly cleaned and ready for our arrival. Protective steps were apparent at the reception but not "in-your-face". More importantly, the venue was just fun! From the start of the day to the sparkler ending, The Estate on the Halifax pulled everything off without a hitch!! It was a relaxed, joyous day. I highly recommend this venue for any event.
