What a venue! Having the reception here was the best major decision we made. There is a great outdoor/indoor area hidden up behind the pool area that is gated off for private use. Plus, blocking off rooms at the hotel makes it super easy for the guests to relax and have an awesome time because all they have to do is walk upstairs afterward!
The staff are probably the best part. They are extremely classy and so incredibly accomodating. They will truly go the extra mile to achieve exactly what you want.

It's beautiful and perfect. Book it, Danno!

This cake - wow. Just thinking of it makes my mouth water. First of all, going for the tasting is a fun experience. Bring a bridesmaid or your fiance and don't eat before you go so you will have room for all the delciousness! They have some incredibly decadent flavors that are so over-the-top delectable (Grand Marnier, champagne, Cappuchino, etc), but even their standard flavors are incredibly rich and moist! Our cake was the best cake I'd ever tasted and it was beautifully constructed. I loved it and would reccommend this bakery to EVERYONE, wedding or not.

We worked with one of the founders of the company for our reception and booked his DJ services. He was very laid back and easy to talk to about what I wanted for music. On the night of, there were a couple of gliches, mostly because of my not communicating exactly what I didn't want. He took the reigns of the party but did not overwhelm the night by being on the microphone too much. He got the guests on the floor and involved in what was going on. I would reccommend this company.

When we ordered my dress, everything went smoothly and the dress came in right when they said it would. But when I came back into town and ordered my veil, they seemed less than friendly and it took forever for it to arrive. When it did arrive, they handed it to me folded up in a plastic bag. Granted, it was not the most expensive veil, but it looked like I could have bought it at the craft store. I don't hold it against them - my veil did look beautiful on my head, but the whole veil experience was not up to what one would call "bridal standards." All in all, I would work with them again given the need.

This woman is so wonderful. First of all, she crafted the floral creations for the wedding in the movie Sweet Home Alabama. If that doesn't sell you right there, she is also very sweet and dedicated to pulling off your floral visions. Very reasonably priced especially if you are flexible with what blooms you use. She is very talented and can create beautiful arrangements from any plant!

Cesar & Tanya are completely amazing. They are genuine, artistic, profesional and just so gosh darn cool! Their work is mind-blowing - their colors are always vivid and their techniques are always ahead of the curve. Also, their prices are reasonable! They will travel anywhere, so even if you don't live in Dallas, book them for sure! You will love your photos forever.

-C Skogen, a satisfied bride!
