Incredible staff and service!

Everyone at DU was incredible! Kristen did our detailing and kept us updated every step of the way. The tastings in the fall and the spring were incredible, and the chef was more than helpful with dietary restrictions of our guests. 10/10 would recommend to anyone looking for an affordable but classy place to celebrate!

Gorgeous tuscan ballroom for the reception! We got married on the outdoor patio and our dog was able to participate. Trixie and Kristen made the day fell effortless!

Incredible service

From the first day to weeks after the wedding they were fantastic and very helpful. We were given a tour of the facility and walked through everything they could do and include. There are multiple on site venues to do a ceremony all very beautiful with different feels; I went with the patio, but rain caused us to move it in last minute. They were able to change everything around within an hour to get the ceremony moved inside. Even though it was moved inside it was still gorgeous and many of my guest had no idea that it was originally supposed to be outside and they commented that they liked the atmosphere better inside. The food is fantastic! I had a plated dinner where me and my husband were able to have both chicken and steak. The staff are all very kind and helpful. At the end of the night the staff clean up everything and you come back a few days later to collect your decorations and belongings. This was better than I could have asked for!
