This was our dream venue.

My wife and I had the absolute BEST wedding imaginable at the Sinclair. Every little detail was perfect. The care and attention that was paid by every single staff-person, vendor and employee was second to none. The venue is STUNNING and you can tell how much care went into making the space everything any couple would want from a wedding venue. It would be very difficult to find a venue and team that exceeds what you will get at the Sinclair. Every member of the Sinclair and Rosalies team were as communicative as possible. Anytime we reached out throughout the planning process, we got quick and thorough responses. There was no guessing about how our day would go. They perfected every detail; Our guest have been raving non-stop about the venue, food and service. Thank you thank thank you!

Incredible

This was the only venue we toured, and we knew it was the one instantly. Patty and the rest of her family were all so helpful, thoughtful and kind throughout the process. They always made us feel like a priority and that it was truly our day. We had quite a few hiccups on the day (thanks Mother Nature) and they helped us through the process so much and they made it so easy for us to make the big decisions quickly without interrupting our day too much.

Marc, Kelly and the Rosalie's staff were all incredible too. The food from Rosalie's is top notch and our guests have not stopped bringing up how amazing it was. Marc worked with us a lot on the bar and we were able to have incredible signature cocktails that added such a personal touch to the day.

The venue grounds really are one of a kind, and it is a hidden gem. I would have booked the venue for the third floor bridal suite alone, but the entire place is just stunning. We are so grateful to have chose this as our wedding venue.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
