It was a magical wedding day for my daughter and new son-in-law at this gorgeous venue!

We were so pleased with every aspect of working with the Bowden staff. The moment we walked in for our first meeting with Shelley, we all knew this is where we wanted the wedding to be! The breathtaking chapel with it’s full wall of windows and dark wooden beams was ideal for the ceremony. Both the bridal suite and grooms room were spacious and well appointed with all we needed. There was beer for the men and mimosas for the ladies along with great snacks and lunch options. After the ceremony, being able to easily walk over to the large and equally beautiful reception hall was a huge plus. The day before, we’d received a call suggesting moving cocktails and appetizers from the lovely patio to the inside hallway due to high temperatures. There was ample room to do so and it was equally lovely. The reception was so elegant, and the dinner was excellent. We received lots of compliments on both the quality of food and quality of service! Johnny was a wonderfully attentive bartender. Then last, but certainly not least, Nancy, our bridal attendant for the day was simply amazing and solved any and every issue that popped up that day with skill, grace and ease! She’s even got a stain off the wedding gown that happened during the photos taken before the wedding ceremony!! She’s the best!
