Flawless Wedding Venue

We had a beautiful ceremony and reception dinner at the Inn at Centre Park. Dennis is very easy to work with and the inn itself is stunning. The food was perfect and we didn’t have to worry about a thing. If you are looking for a beautiful small venue at an affordable price, I highly recommend.
