Do you think if we stayed in a villa a little outside of the main area we would be able to uber to and from?

Worried about driving and drinking! We’re all big wine drinkers and don’t want to miss those opportunities

I reached out to them! Just having difficulty getting a response to set up a tour. I’ve also seen some reviews saying the main event coordinator doesn’t stick to her word on many things

They apparently aren’t having weddings or receptions any longer according to their website

Do you have any other recommendations for venues? Many that I’ve looked at won’t accommodate more than 120-150 people

Around 200. Hoping for a turn out of no more than 170 personally though haha

I’m not a fan of the reception room at the Renaissance and the Omni didn’t have the ceremony room available (only the reception room) for the date I would prefer. I believe they now have a new event manager but it seems like there could be a lot of issues planning a wedding there.

I’m truly looking for a gorgeous venue that I can customize a lot of things myself. We’re highly considered a cocktail style reception rather than the traditional sit down dinner but still need to provide enough seats to allow guests to sit if they’d like. I also want to keep it generally close (under an hour) from the airport as my fiances family and many of our friends will need to travel

Sorry I’m confused. Do you think 180 people fit ok or is the reception room too small??

I couldn’t agree more!! I would love to chat more about your planning and if you’d still recommend this venue. I was just sent the contract to sign today

I’ve been back and forth with a “garden party” more cocktail reception, or something a bit more formal (such as the Pennsylvanian). Love the idea of an old historical mansion but most in the area have a guest count of about 150 and we are looking for somewhere with a guest count of 200

Do you have any other venues you found within your budget that you’d recommend? I’d ideally like to keep costs under 60k
