Best Winter Wedding
The venue staff and owner are amazing. They handled all the details and made recommendations on vendors who all turned out great. They handled the fact that it snowed on my wedding day and made everything wonderful.

Beautiful setting - Excellent value
Vecoma staff persons were always available to answer questions and to guide us in planning the wedding. The facility - inside and out - is beautiful. Vecoma can accommodate any size wedding, and they were very flexible. All policies and prices were given to us when we signed the contract. There were no surprises. I highly recommend Vecoma!
