Danni Married on 09/04/2021Incredible!
Angie and the whole event staff at the Stafford’s Perry are flawless. When I was planning our wedding there are so many little details that often felt very overwhelming. After postpone
ing my wedding in 2020 I was feeling like things were piling up and I was going to miss something important. However, I should have never had a doubt because the moment the planning process started up in 2021 Angie, Xaina, and their team nailed it. They handled everything from start to finish. Their professionalism is unparalleled and their caring and attention to detail genuinely incredible. The stress and burden they took off my shoulders can’t be described, I truly felt relaxed the entire wedding (other than normal wedding gitters) because I knew they had me covered in every way possible. My wedding party, and the family closest to us and involved in the planning process all complimented them to us during the evening at how awesome Angie and the staff was.
Also, to give more compliments, if you are looking for a place to get married the Rose Garden Veranda was stunning. It rained the day of our wedding, but it did not stop the venue from being truly perfect. Again, many people complimented us on the beauty of the day & venue.
If I had to do it all over again, I wouldn’t change a thing. My husband and I strongly recommend you choose this team to trust with your big day – they won’t disappoint you in any way.

The staff at the Perry was excellent! They were always quick to respond to our questions, willing to accommodate our requests, and truly worked with us to make our wedding day special. They also were incredibly accommodating and helpful while navigating a reschedule due to covid; they communicated any policy changes with us quickly, and worked with us to find solutions that work for us and the hotel. We didn't use a wedding planner, and I never felt like I needed one with the Perry. We highly recommend Stafford's Perry Hotel!
