Reviews of The Gilmore
Review summary
English Hills Country Club is highly recommended as a wedding venue. The event coordinator and staff, particularly Alex, received praise for their helpfulness, flexibility, and responsiveness. The prices were reasonable, without compromising on quality. Guests were impressed with the seamless transition when the reception had to be moved indoors due to storms, and the food received many compliments. The venue's multiple locations, including the Rose Garden for ceremonies and the West River ballroom for receptions, were also appreciated. Overall, English Hills Country Club is highly recommended for its excellent service and making couples' wedding dreams come true.
