I had my wedding here 11/5/2016. It was so beautiful! All my guest can't stop mentioning how much they loved it. The price seemed high to me at first so I looked around and found for an all inclusive package it was actually less than the competition. You can also pay the amount owed in payments to make it easier. And if there's a vendor you would prefer using or not using you can pick and choose to have them included. You're not required to use anyone. I chose to go elsewhere for our cake and invitations because I just wanted something different. But the vendors I used were pretty great.
I used still life for photography which when everything was said and done I ended up with really beautiful photos that their photographer Bridget took. She was really great! The bar service was great and if you pay the beer and wine you can bring in some liquor to be served as well. You just can't leave and come back with more after the wedding had started. The only thing I had a hard time with was inviting kids with the open bar because you had to pay from them to drink even though they were too young so I tried my best to avoid kids being invited. But I know that pretty standard.
The dj Mark Sanchez was great. He kept things moving along all night. People were dancing all night. If you had a request he was quick to accommodate. Even for a strange request for a wedding he had it and put it on. After my bridesmaids got my permission. He didn't want to put on B****better have my money until I gave the ok. Which was nice because I had him wait until the older conservative guest left before playing it.
The florist was great too. I had a hard time explaining what I truly wanted and thought the flowers weren't going to be what I wanted. But on the day of the wedding when I walked into the dressing room there were these gorgeous flowers that were better than I could have imagined. She somehow knew exactly the look I wanted.
The only vendor I used that I wasn't thrilled about was the cater put a fork in it. I had a really hard time getting an apt set up. The woman I tried to schedule with told me she would contact me when they were doing a tasting but she usually wouldn't and I had a hard time with her telling me a week before they were doing one because my husband is a truck driver so I usually couldn't get him home in time. And when I went for the tasting there must have been miscommunication because I didnt know I could pick items I wanted to try so they could have them prepared when I got there. Instead I tried other people's picks. And I couldn't get anything set up again to retry what I wanted so I just chose from what we had that day. Which I don't think trying anything different would have helped. The chicken was overly fatty which is all I really eat for meat so that was not good. The roast and pork loin werent very good alternatives. The potatoes, bruschetta, and coconut chicken appetizers were really good though. And the service they provided the day of the wedding a awsome. My husband and I had plates with some of everything brought to us and they took care of our drinks as well so we didn't have to leave our table. So it wasn't all bad. And maybe some of the other food that I didn't try is good. As far as the scheduling for the tasting I informed Regency. They told me I should have told them so they could have worked it out. So that is on me. But I guess overall the whole thing was so so. It wasn't awful but not great.
I tried so hard to find a garden or green venues and that was difficult but this was exactly what I was looking for. They keep the garden very green with colorful flowers. The grass is fake which I thought was great because I had a friend's wedding were everyone's shoes ended up a bit muddy and I was glad to not have to worry about that. Tony and Linda were so easy to work with. They set up and cleaned up everything. My family just packed it in there cars after the wedding and that was that. I brought all my stuff I wanted set up 2 days before the big day. All I did was label it and they set it up just how I asked. Linda a just a couple quick questions for me about a couple items before I went to my dressing room and then that was that. I didn't have to worry about anything all day. The tables, linens, chairs, place settings, and easel for my seating chart were all included. They also have an option to have a sparkler send off at the end of the night. Alot of my guests left early but I still had about 20 people there at the end. They even asked me before hand if I still wanted to do the sparkles or just get the money back since my guests had left. I liked that they gave me the option in case I changed my mind. That way I would have to pay for a service I really wouldn't have gotten much from.
I highly recommend this venue. You won't be sorry you chose it.
