Wonderful!

I couldn't have been happier with the venue we chose, they were reliable, professional, and easy to communicate with thanks to Sam, the venue manager. We also opted to book her as our day-of-coordinator, which removed so much stress both in wedding planning and during our wedding day, so I would highly recommend her for anyone booking Nagelkirk for their wedding!

Ready to do it again!

Sam and Maggie were wonderful to work with, and the venue set up, decorations, and flowers were exactly what we had envisioned. Because it was raining we moved the ceremony under the reception tent, and took many of our photos in the greenhouse. Our guests commented on how beautiful the setting was, and that it was the perfect place for an outdoor wedding. I'm ready to do it all over again!
