This is in Memphis, TN, and I ordered my dress, as well as my 4 bridesmaids dresses here. They are so honest, but in a loving way. They told me if a dress wasn't the best look for me, and they gushed over the ones that were great. All of the ladies loved the dress I picked, and they made me feel like it was the right decision.

The room was miniscule! It was way too small to have more than 4 tables, and that only left room for about 5 feet of dance floor space. Not at all what we were looking for.

The rooms were on the third story, which made for a great view of Colorado Springs and the mountains, but the layout wasn't so great. The rooms were not big enough to only use one, but combining two made it awkward to move around and mingle.

We thought about using the Inn for a reception site, but they weren't as open to working with us to make it fit perfectly to what we want. They were very nice, but the location isn't great either. It's on the main road in town, but the sign is easy to miss. They haven't finished the grounds either, and it's covered with dirt all over, instead of grass. The rooms for guests were nice, and we will put this on a suggested stay list for our own guests.

We want to use this location as a Rehearsal Dinner site, and it's great. It's an old warehouse where they display local artists' work. The owner is the chef, and he was more than willing to work with us on different deals for the night. It's a great setting, and the food was amazing!

We aren't Catholic, but this church is so welcoming to us. They are so friendly, and the chapel is beautiful!

Meghan takes amazing pictures, and she was so nice! Her packages were by far the cheapest we found, but we liked her so much better, before we saw the prices! She is flexible, and has worked with us to make the package perfect for our own needs, and she even gave suggestions for other parts of the wedding!

Cori is fresh and new, and she's very open to suggestion! She listened to what I want, and she has changed my proposal five times to make sure it's perfect for me! She was extremely friendly, but not too pushy. She's excited about her job, and has made the floral part of the wedding very easy. We really love her!

This was the worst idea we had. We wanted a chapel in the mountains, but they do everything themselves! You have to use their caterer for the reception, ad the food isn't so great. You have to use the owner's DJ service, the owner's wife officiates the ceremony, there is no piano/organ/live music for the ceremony, and they told us one thing to our faces, then said something completely different three hours later. The owner also takes pictures at the ceremony, and even if they tell you it's ok, you cannot bring in another photographer to do the wedding pictures. It was all around frustrating.

Everyone here was so amazing! The coordinator at the lodge used to be a wedding planner, and she is wonderful. The lodge has been completely renovated, and it's beautiful. There is a gazebo outside where you could have a ceremony if you want, but the room inside is perfect too! We are using it for the reception, and the food is amazing, the packages are affordable, and everything is included! The cake is included too, and it comes from a wonderful bakery nearby. Everything is great here!!
