The true fairy tale wedding venue
When you visit this place it is magical. Jessica is so straight forward and professional. She made sure to go over every detail with us and made it so easy to make a decision. I love that there was no pressure but she still sold me on this venue because of the perks and beauty this place has. The tour Jessica gave was like a fairy tail. I believe she will make sure that all the staff and assistants hired will compliment the venue.

Mother of the Bride
Great Marsh is unique and beautiful. 4 months later, our guests are stills talking about its magic. One of the wonderful things is that out guests moved to three different places within the same location for three important moments throughout the wedding: ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. We even got to spend the night and have a delicious gourmet style breakfast the next morning! It was a dream!
Great Marsh is a gorgeous up and coming venue that offers an old world feel with modern amenities. Breath taking views and vistas. The first time I saw Great Marsh, I felt like I was in the English countryside in a Jane Eyre movie. Jessica Brose and her team are wonderful to work with and will help create the wedding day of your dreams! Highly recommend!

Sheer perfection!
