Perfect Experience!

McDowall made my wedding just perfect! They were a pleasure to work with, very helpful with vendors and just really made us feel comfortable and at ease with the whole process! We made plans for an outdoor ceremony and struggled with the rain the day of! I never felt uncomfortable or not important!

A+++++++ Rating! You won't be disappointed!

We had the pleasure of having our wedding hosted by McDowall Acres and everything was phenomenal! I fell in love with the venue and knew it was the one the moment my maid of honor and I stepped out of our car the first time we checked it out. There was no hesitation! Elizabeth, Lucy and the whole team went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of and everything went as smoothly as it could. They are so kind hearted and welcoming! I would recommend anyone to have their wedding with them. Thank you all so much for the wonderful memories!
