Absolutely perfect!

My wedding was on 9/19/20 at Willow Haven. It is worth every penny! Duane and Kitty are amazing people and business owners. They go above and beyond and so many things are included when you rent this venue. You don’t have to worry about renting certain linens colors, dishes, silverware, glassware, certain staff, and most importantly, clean up! You can pick your stuff up the next day if you have to as well. They thought of all the little stressors for the day of and they take care of it all.

The venue itself is just perfectly set up and absolutely beautiful! I was fortunate enough to have a beautiful outdoor ceremony. They have a new outdoor wooded area with a massive arbor. So after the ceremony you’re able to move right into the basement for cocktail hour. You don’t have to worry about changing table settings because the upstairs was already ready for the reception.

My photos turned out stunning! You can take a photo anywhere on the property and they turned out amazing! I myself love nature photos so going down by the lake and into the woods Is highly recommended!

So I just want to say thanks to Duane and Kitty for making our day truly perfect!
