I was researching venues in my hometown, and desired the wedding ceremony and reception to be in the same location, as many guests, including myself, would be traveling from out of town. When I came across the Larimore House Plantation, I knew my search for the perfect venue was concluded. Dena and Allen were more than accommodating in every way possible throughout the entire wedding process, which made everything so much more enjoyable.

The entire wedding day, I never needed to stress over anything, only partake in pictures, attend to my family and friends, and most importantly enjoy the day I had envisioned since a little girl. Many people told me the wedding was the most beautiful and enjoyable one they had ever attended, which made me even happier. Between the white horse and carriage, the best wedding coordinators assisting me, amazing photographers and florist, and incredible family and friends, I could not have picked a better venue than the Larimore House Plantation to have the wedding of my dreams. Thank you Dena and Allen for making my fairy tale wedding come true.

Perfect Perfect Perfect!!! Dena and Allen have really figured out the winning formula for a perfect wedding. My husband got married Sunday April 26, 2015 and it was the best day I could have ever imagined. From the beginning, Dena was extremely helpful and is always happy to listen and help in any way she can. The rehearsal went smoothly because she helped us with the line up, the details, and she worked great with our officiant, taking notes to make sure everything went as planned. The staff cleaned the chairs outside before the guests arrived, they were quick to help with anything we needed, and were extremely kind and attentive. I simply cannot believe how amazing they were to us. My husband and I didn't have to worry about absolutely anything all day. Trust me, Dena and Allen know how to make any wedding perfect. If you want a beautiful wedding in a short amount of time with a wonderful line up of vendors (Cake...AMAZING, DJ...SUPERB, Flower...all of it!!!!!!), take a trip to Larimore and talk to Dena. You will be thrilled that you did!

Dena & Allen Bovey are amazing!! I know to some venue shoppers Larimores price tag might look a bit high but if you break down what all your getting your actually saving money. I think it is worth triple the amount they ask for. The house is stunning and Dena is there to make sure your big day is stress free! The staff is wonderful and the vendors are the top of the line.
When we arrived at the house yesterday I couldn't believe how stunning everything was, and another perk, I didn't have to fuss with any of it. Dena and her staff had all the decorations done and my favors & menu cards in place. While my family and friends mingled and my bridal party helped me stay calm Dena and her team, like little wedding fairies, worked to make sure everything was perfect. I am still in awe at how amazing it all was. Oh and the food!! I watched guests that are the pickiest eaters devour dinner within seconds of it being served. Thanks Peaches:). We didn't have to worry about the little details, and when it was time to go the staff had all of our stuff ready to go. It was also nice not to have to worry about the clean up. I heard out of all the weddings my guest have been to, our wedding at Larimore was the best. They loved the carriage!
A huge thank you to Dena & Allen and the entire Larimore staff for making our wedding dreams come true.

Officiated a wedding at this beautiful venue in Sept 2015 and could not have been more pleased with the setting and the work of the husband/wife in coordinating the entrance of the wedding party for the ceremony. Made my work easy and I know the couple was pleased.
