Thank you for the best day!

I cannot recommend The Gardens at Applecross enough! From our first meeting, they were incredibly attentive and genuinely excited about our wedding. They took the time to understand our vision and brought it to life beautifully. The venue is absolutely stunning and we are still getting compliments about how beautiful the day was. We were very DIY centered (we made everything personally) and were very stressed about getting everything to the venue and set up on the day of. Dan David and Tina were so accommodating to help us get everything to the venue on time. We ended up hiring a team to set up the decorations that we had brought to the venue the day of. “Bridal backstage crew” went above and beyond to ensure everything was set up to perfection and listened to how we wanted everything to look. So professional and I seriously do not know what we would have done without them! It took so much stress off of us to have them there the morning of to set up. If you’re looking for someone who will not only meet but exceed your expectations, The gardens at Applecross and Bridal Backstage crew is the way to go. Thank you both for making our day so special!

Our wedding

The venue itself is absolutely beautiful. We fell in love with it from the moment we saw it. Over the span of 10 months from seeing & booking the venue, David has enhanced the grounds & made it even more BEAUTIFUL. He has an eye for design! David is also very PHENOMENAL to work with. He has been in the business for over 30 years & we knew that we could rely on him every step of the way. I am absolutely thrilled that my wedding was here & I wouldn't have changed a single thing.

Thanks for OUR great day

In June we had the pleasure of being invited to a bridal open house by Christina's Catering at The Gardens at Applecross. Christina's Catering service provided an impressive array of appetizers, desserts and wedding cake. Their table setup was impressive and just how we imagined from our conversations with Tina and the amazing food tasting with Dan the chef. The waitstaff and bartender were professionally dressed and very friendly. This experience made us excited for our wedding day in August and calmed our wedding jitters. Thank you to Dave for taking us on a delightful grounds tour. It is a spectacular wedding venue!!
