My nephew and his adorable bride were married on June 27, 2014. The seating for the guests seemed to accommodate everyone nicely. I was very surprised at how big the downstairs reception area really was, and it was decorated beautifully. I especially liked that the tables were set for 6 or 8, rather than the usual 10. It didn't feel crowded. The food and drinks were great too. I didn't deal with the staff, so I can't comment on that, but I thought the entire event was flawless.
