What Type Of Bridal Couple Would Like This Place? Couple outside

Here's the deal about this place, it was built around the late 1990s.  Since it opened it has been a very popular place to host a wedding reception.  If you don't book it what you may want to do is as soon as you give birth to your first child, call a make a reservation on their behalf 26 years later. Yes, it does seem to be that popular.   What is interesting about this place is that you can bring outside catering in.  Some cultures such as people from India and some middle eastern countries  need venues that can do this  There aren't that many around so they tend to be even more popular.    This place is gorgeous, stellar beautiful from the outside.   it's almost like pulling up to a nice hotel.


Photographic PotentialOutside at sunsetfirst dance


The lighting in the room is really fabulous!  The front is great, the back is kinda so-so.   The garden in back is a bit rural and thus you may get your dress a bit dirty going too and from around the property.

Possible Distractions/ Work Around

This venue can be hard to photograph at if you don't know what you are doing.  From looking at the front of the location you would expect that you would get some stellar photos, but in reality someone could easily screw up the photography at this location.

Overall Evaluation

This is a nice place!   The question isn't could you be happy with having a wedding reception here, the question is, can you book this place?
