After spending tons and tons of time researching venues, we finally settled on River Glen Country Club. While the interior is not as fancy or unique as some other venues in the ar...ea, everything else about it is awesome! The price is incredible, they clearly state what is included and there are no "nickel and dime" things to worry about as you plan. For example, even if you have an outside baker, the event coordinator will slice and serve the cake for no charge. Who ever decided it made sense to charge a separate fee for slicing cake and putting it on plates, let alone charging to use the knife and server?
Lauralee and Stephanie were amazing to work with from the initial call until the end of the reception! I have high expectations for customer service and they excelled. Not only were they quick to respond to all emails and phone messages, they were always very kind and willing to do whatever they could to help make our day special.
River Glen catered our meal and it was delicious! Several guests even made sure to comment about how good everything tasted. I am not sure who prepared the food so I cannot give specific credit. Lauralee made our cake and we are excited to have her make another small one for us on our first anniversary so we can fully enjoy it. The few bites we had were awesome, we just did not take time to eat more. That is another little thing we loved, Lauralee will make a cake for your anniversary so you do not have to eat cake that has been frozen for a year! I sent her a picture of a cake we liked and she made one that looked exactly like it!
Our ceremony was on the balcony, overlooking the golf course which was beautiful.
