Tl;dr: Book here and book now! This is a place that sets your wedding apart from all the others. No…read moreother place that I found offered an atmosphere and a unique experience like this. It truly made our wedding amazing.
There wasn't a part of this experience that I could improve. From the moment I called to show interest to leaving the morning after our wedding - the atmosphere, the accommodations, and the genuine joy I experienced working with Katy and our wedding staff was nothing short of a blessing.
We had a wedding of about 80-100 people. We fit everyone, a dance floor, a buffet, a bartender, and a DJ inside. We could have fit more. They met with me many times before the wedding, letting me come out to see the venue and show my wedding party the space. We chose to decorate ourselves, and it was easy to do. I spent about $200 on flowers and decor, because it just doesn't need much to be elegant and inviting at the same time. The tipis are naturally intriguing, even my most traditional guests commented on how majestic they are. You must view them with the lights on in the evening to truly understand the effect.
The pictures turned out beautifully. They have a cabin on premises they rent for you to stay the night of your wedding. I strongly suggest this, because you're gonna be exhausted! The bedroom is in a loft with a spiral staircase, and it feels magical when you're already euphoric from being married.
They have a space for the ceremony complete with seating and then they have the reception in the Tipis. Even if you don't use the ceremony space, it makes for amazing photos.
My guests were impressed with the "something different" factor. They will always remember our wedding, because it's such a unique location; it's not just another fancy, dressed-up banquet hall.
I am usually the traditional type and wouldn't have expected myself to step-out-of-the-box in this way, but I cannot describe how grateful I am that I did. The atmosphere puts people at ease and sets the experience apart from any other event I've been to.
Katy and co. were patient and delighted in my successes along the way. My joys were their joys, and it was a breath of fresh air. I truly believe they cared for my entire experience. As I sit here and reflect on my wedding, I feel blessed to have found people who are willing and capable, not pushy but always available, and just generally all-around wonderful humans.
Oh! And they have their own sound system and they can control the temperature perfectly. If you don't want to hire a DJ, you can play from an iPad easily!
