Thank you!

When you plan a wedding, everything is hard to imagine fitting all together. At Highgrove, it was so evident how well-planned and organized everything was and as a bride, I felt so at ease and knew that everything would be taken care of. Thank you for making our day even better than I imagined!

Thanks!

Thank you so much for making our wedding day perfect. Everyone talked about how good the food was, how beautiful the wedding was, and how much fun they had. We appreciate everyone at Highgrove for making our day that way!

Thank you...

We cannot rave enough about Highgrove. The grounds are picturesquely beautiful, the staff are attentive and helpful, and the food is scrumptiously delicious! Even now that our wedding day is long over, our family and guests are still talking about the coconut shrimp! It was truly a special and unforgettable day for the both of us. And the emotions and feelings we felt at Highgrove will be forever ingrained in our hearts and memories.

Thanks from the mother of the bride

I wanted to write and tell you how much we enjoyed our experience with Highgrove. All along the way everyone was kind and helpful-- nothing could have been better. Our coordinator made me feel quite "at home" during the day when I was getting everything in and set up. She handled many things, I'm sure, that I don't even know about...including an extra "prayer" to hold back the rain. (The clouds opened up just after the last guest got under the shelter.) And the food...absolutely delicious-- and beautifully set up and graciously served. Our guests continued to tell us that it was the most relaxed, beautiful, comfortable, and fun wedding they had ever attended. That was testimony to our selection of Highgrove!

Two weeks after our wedding we are still talking about how wonderful it was! Our friend went to four weddings this summer and he said that ours was the best! Everyone stated that everything was so beautiful and elegant. You over-exceeded our expectations. We have already recommended Highgrove to a friend who is getting married.

Thanks so much!

Highgrove was the perfect place to have our wedding. If we needed something someone was there, if we didn't need anything they were not in the way. The grounds were beautiful. It was obvious the love and labor everyone puts into the place! All of our guests kept repeating how beautiful everything was. Matt and I couldn't agree more. Highgrove was my dream place to have a wedding, I'm so glad you made it a reality. Vicky, the food was DELICIOUS! Thank you for everything.

Our wedding

Words cannot describe how beautiful you made our wedding day. Most brides have in their heads exactly how they would like their day to be and it was everything I dreamed of. The atmosphere was relaxed, smooth, and beautiful. You all were very attentive to our needs. Your gracious manner shows in every way! Your staff was very polite, organized, and pleasant. I loved everything about Highgrove. In words, I will always describe Highgrove as purely magical and every bride's dream come true!
P.S. We didn't want the night to end... all the comments I have heard from the girls who attended were "most gorgeous wedding and the place was like a fairy tale."

Tara and Chris

Thank you

Thank you very much for the exceptional services you provided to us for our wedding. You all have been incredibly helpful to us over the past year as we planned our wedding. The service and set-up were impeccable and the food was absolutely divine. We received so many compliments on Highgrove, the grounds and scenery, and the catering. We are so glad we choose Highgrove for our wedding and won't hesitate to recommend you to others. Many thanks to you all!

From arriving at Highgrove until the departure, we had awesome experiences. My mind was at ease when I saw Ann and Angela setting up the tent for the reception-- they seemed to know exactly what to do. I love how no one asked me questions because that would have stressed me out. I was able to trust the Highgrove staff 100%. During the cocktail hour Patrick and I were so impressed by the staff who were always there with food or to get our drink orders as we were having our pictures taken. I can't say enough great things about Highgrove!

We had a great wedding at Highgrove! Many of our guests came from out of state and were truly impressed by the scenic beauty of the venue. It was the perfect place for the perfect day!
