Venue Selection

I’m so glad I picked BROOKSIDE from the moment I saw details online to the actual in person experience. Everything was great! Staff was absolutely amazing. Arthur and his wife were awesome they were patient and had input on everything we were unsure of. Food was great even though my husband and I didn’t have a chance to eat our dinner or cake lol. But, over a week married and people cannot stop talking about our wedding. How much fun it was, how amazing the food was. Our day was perfect! As much as we wanted to get it over with I would love a repeat of our special day ♥️🎉
