The Best Wedding Planning Decision We Made

My husband and I had our wedding at Emerald Hills in May 2019. From the beginning of the whole wedding planning process in the fall of 2018, Abby, Travis, and the Emerald Hills team were so kind, helpful, and accommodating. They paid very close attention to the details of our vision for our wedding day, were eager to lend super helpful advice, and truly advocated for us when communicating with different vendors throughout the 8 months of planning. Their booking package comes with so many inclusions; there's no need to track down rental tables, table linens, bartenders, recommended vendors, or a bunch of extra hands to help out on wedding day - they had all of these taken care of AND MORE! The beauty and accommodations of the venue & land surrounding the venue were just a cherry on top of the incredible service they provided to us. We heard all night long that it was the most beautiful venue our guests had ever been to, and got just as many compliments on the quality of the staff. They're wonderful and show a ton of integrity. (For example, one of our guests left their watch at the venue. Instead of making anyone drive to the venue to get it, they offered to ship it directly to us, no questions asked.) If you want a wedding planning experience that is smooth, thorough, and SO fun, absolutely book your wedding day with Emerald Hills Events!
