Amazing wedding!

I had my wedding here a month ago and everything turned out the way I wanted to be. Ariel was so patient and kind with helping planning. I know we were driving her insane but she was a pleasure to work with and made sure we had everything we wanted at the wedding. The food was amazing as well!

Nice place

a good place, the food is excellent, the staff are very friendly, it is a good place for weddings with children as they have a play area. The only thing I did not like is that it was 10 at night and the police even said to turn down the music because the neighbors complained but it is a golf club there are no houses nearby
