Canyon Gate is absolutely gorgeous for a wedding venue! I seriously was in LOVE when I first came to check out the place! The scenery is amazing. Especially during the sunsetting hours. Which is the number one reason why I chose this location as my venue!
Initially, I have to say I was not pleased with the service I was getting. Especially with the old wedding coordinator, Keri, that was there. She never responded to our messages ever! Hoevere, the new coordinators Kristin and Brittany are AMAZING. Kristen especially! She was pregnant and almost due, yet she was so quick to respond and make sure our wedding day would be perfect! Seriously, I would email a question and within 24 hours I would receive a response! That's quick service!
Also, the wedding packages are definitely very very very affordable! I was on a budget since I was paying for most of the wedding myself. Kristen definitely helped us with our budget and made sure everything we wanted was set perfectly. The food at the venue was amazing. The chef was very accommodating when we were trying out the foods and asking about food allergies. Yes, there is gluten free items available! And the cake company they work with (Cravin Cakes) is amazing.
Fast forward to the day before our wedding. Rehearsal was smooth and they sent email reminders and phone messages to remind us the time and if there were changes. Day of the wedding. Service is great. Everyone made sure we were okay and everything was going well. One complaint I did have was the cake serving. The cake slices were like slivers... almost nonexistent. And some of my guests didn't get served cake because they weren't at their seat. We addressed it to Kristin after the wedding by email and she emailed back and apologized.
Overall, I am very impressed with Canyon Gate as a venue. I do recommend working with Kristin! And Canyon Gate is just gorgeous! Especially the entrance of Canyon Gate is amazing. There are waterfalls right before the main entrance.
