Merle Manders Conference and Wedding Center was the perfect location for our wedding. Heidi was so easy to work with and always answered any questions we had and answered every e-mail the same day. They were very professional and friendly, and the venue is HUGE and beautiful. Love the stacked stone fireplace that goes all the way up to the all wood ceiling, the chandeliers, and the mood lighting. The huge covered porch is also a plus. We had 150 guests and there was plenty of parking. Thanks again Heidi for everything! It's a day we'll never forget!

The Merle Manders Conference Center made my wedding day a breeze! I couldn't have asked for a more helpful staff. The location is beautiful and makes for great pictures. The most important part is I didn't put my parents in debt paying for it!

I highly recommend MMCC. Everyone at the facility was very professional. They work as a team and in the absence of one another. The facility is absolutely beautiful and spacious. The grounds, restrooms and entire facility are clean and well manicured. My guest count was 200 for the wedding reception and everyone was comfortable. My guests raved about how beautiful and classy the site was; MMCC is well worth the money. A special thanks to Heidi, the Event Coordinator. She was flexible and worked with me to meet every aspect of my reception needs.
