| - Well, I wasn't going to write this review because I did like this place, even after we went through some major set backs, but given the owner has yet to reach out to me, which in my opinion is absolutely ridiculous giving what happened, I am going to write this review! Let's start with what we did like about this place. We got married on March 29th 2014. This place is great because you can use the vendors they have or you can bring in your own or use some of theirs and some of your own. We decided to use everything of theirs except we brought in our officiant and our own liquor but you have to use their bartender for liability reasons. Makes sense. The good: Their food/caterer was awesome!!! Compliments all night long on how amazing the food was and I have to agree! The florist, Elizabeth, was absolutely amazing to work with! She made a bouquet for me that was quite difficult and yet she nailed it! The overall look of the building is gorgeous and again, tons of compliments across the board on that. Also, the bridal suite is amazing! It's big and comfortable for you and your girls to get ready at! Overall, If your using this place, the florist and caterer is the only thing i would recommend using. Now, let's talk about the bad. We used their photographer Cyndi Hardy and she was absolutely awful!! We paid $1600 for a professional photographer and there was nothing professional about any photo! Blurry photos, she didn't direct us, she didn't edit the photos, short people are in the back so you can't even see them, people in the background of our photos!! We got 3 good photos out of the whole album! 3!! Not to mention my husband has a son and not one photo was taken of my husband with his son, nor the three of us together! That should have been more than half the album! When we wrote to her to tell her our disappointment her response was, "I fulfilled my end of the bargain and have no further obligation to you!" LoL!! What?! No apologies and no nothing to offer to make it right. Then to top off our great night, at the end of the night, I noticed my iPhone was missing which was in the bridal suite the whole time. The girl that was put in charge, after our wedding planner left, I believe her name was Michelle, had no care in the world that my phone was missing. Didn't help look for it or nothing, brushed it off. Also, my mom had gone up to the bridal suite to pack up her stuff before any of us and this same girl was on the phone with her feet up on the desk and looked at my mom like she was invading her space and made my mom feel uncomfortable! You're over seeing a wedding and you're on your phone with your feet up on the desk?! Wow. After getting home and going through our stuff some of our wedding cards had gone missing as well, and because we brought in our liquor we had a count of what we had and what we came home with, and several bottles of liquor were missing as well. Now I can't throw accusations around BUT, we tracked my iPhone to a house out in chandler which definitely means it was stolen. Nor my husband or I know anyone in Chandler nor recognized the people living where the phone was tracked to. Of course it was never recovered. As far as the wedding cards, there is a gift table in the reception, and they do provide a box for your cards, but I would recommend doing something else, put it on your main table or with your parents or something because like I said some of our cards were stolen with money of course. Now I initially didn't want to write this review because I did enjoy our wedding and have have gotten a lot of compliments on the overall thing, but then one of my guest told me something very disturbing after the wedding. He was having a conversation with a guy he didn't know, (it's a wedding, odds are you don't know everyone) but the guy made my friend Tom uncomoff right off the bat. My friend Tom asked him if he knew me (the bride) and this guy says "no, one of my friends works here and told me there was a wedding going on and to come on down!" ........okay what?!!!! My friend Tom told me he was dressed as if he was a guest at the wedding so no one would even notice! That's so disturbing on so many levels, I'm more than mad! And to top it off stuff from my own wedding was stolen! Our wedding planner Tony (owners nephew, family owned business) has been trying to reach out and has done a good job, but I am really upset that A. The owner has never made the initiative to reach out to us, so I had to request to talk to her which is B.S! And B. She is aware of the situation, she is aware I requested to talk to her, and it's been 3 weeks since our wedding and not a word from her! After something of such severity happens you would think the owner would reach out!! It's so unprofessional I'm disgusted! As I'm writing this I'm getting more angry so I will end it at that. As an update it's been a month since our wedding and not a word from the owner! She got paid so why would she!
