| - Our friends got married here a couple years ago, at this gorgeously green and lush golf course located not too far away from the 215 & Grand Canyon/Flamingo exit (ok, I lied, maybe a couple more miles away). Beautiful grounds.
It was an outside wedding in May so the weather was nice. The grass was a little moist from watering though, so my heels sunk in a little walking to the archway decorated in ribbon. A temporary floor was laid down with white chairs. It was a nice ceremony. The couple disappeared to take more pictures- such scenic backdrops. (My husband was in the wedding party, so we had to get there early, for pre-wedding pictures but someone was late- don't remember who it was, though.)
I remember being at a small room (lounge with bar) before the hall opened up for all of the guests. I remember seeing golfers walk in and out of the room.
The hall was very nice- decorated in the couple's colors- brown and pink. The table with the signature memento (we all signed them), had jars complete with scoops, holding gummi bears, and assorted candy- with ribbon adorned paper sacks to fill- that was fun.
The food was excellent. The fish was probably the best dish that night. The mix of cheeses with crackers and olives was a nice touch. The bartender was heavy handed and the mixed drinks were really strong! Many of the people I talked to about the drinks could not finish them- plus my husband got drunk real fast BTW.
The DJ was fun- had a good mix of music, salsa for the Chilean half and pop/r&b for the other half (multi-ethnic union). Since there were lots of people from my husband's work, and I knew the families of both parties, I knew many of the guests. We were one of the last couples to leave the hall. It was a nice wedding, all in all. (I was happy to be dancing almost all night.)
Last note: the ladies room had lockers to accommodate the wedding party- nice detail.
