I believe this closes at sunset but I've been out here at sunrise and it's been pretty quiet until 9:30 am or so. There are a few walking trails and the docks/front of the boathouse (the cement areas) do flood during heavy rain. Definitely a Glastonbury community symbol... :) Lots of kids fishing on the dock/by the river. Playground on the premises & then the Glastonbury parks and rec manages the fields behind the clubhouse. I've been here when there was a wedding and it seemed intimate and romantic. I'm a big fan of this spot!

The good: This review would be 5 stars if based solely on…read moreour AMAZING DJ and MC. They do an unbelievable job with the music selection and guest interaction. They work hard but make it look effortless. Everyone had a great time. Boppers is expensive, but this is probably why. Their entertainment staff are terrific. The game tables were also a lot of fun and enjoyed by kids and adults alike. The bad: Our liaison, Justin, was often rushed and curt, bordering on inconsiderate at planning meetings and follow up emails. He spoke over me and was condescending about pricing, photo booth selection, and table arrangement. I recognize his expertise here, but there was limited room for constructive discussion, and his recommendations would have left us short of seating for nearly a dozen guests. Unfortunately, this diminished the overall experience and makes it hard to leave a full endorsement of the company for potential and future customers.

This man ruined my wedding…read more He was unprofessional, belligerent, drunk, and absolutely inappropriate. He played Gold Digger. At my wedding. The explicit version. With children in the room. He refused to turn down the volume of music during dinner, and refused to play any of the songs that I requested. Despite speaking with him prior to the wedding about what songs we wanted played during dinner and for dancing, spending hours filling out his extensive online worksheet listing "MUST PLAY", "WOULD LIKE PLAYED", and "DO NOT PLAY" songs, he played almost exclusively his own picks or songs on my DO NOT PLAY list. He told me during our conversation that he was good at reading the crowd, and would be able to play a good mix of songs that would keep people on the dance floor. I was mortified. His music drove 1/3rd of guests home, and another 1/3rd of my guests outside of the ballroom to escape his music. I tried my best to be on the dance floor despite the undanceable song choices (including 500 Miles?!?) and disco garbage. I am a dancer, and several of my guests are swing dancers. It was impossible to dance that night. What made things worse is that John Rzasa, THE DJ, kept trying to dance with me. He even tried to cut in on my husband, then got on the microphone and called my husband jealous because he wouldn't let THE DJ DANCE WITH HIS NEW BRIDE. I finally just left the dance floor because the songs were unbearable and the DJ wouldn't stop harassing me. I went outside to the concrete patio with the rest of my guests and danced with my swing dancer friends to songs we played on our cell phones. When I finally went back inside to get a drink, he was playing a song on my DO NOT PLAY list, trying to lead a line dance with a handful of reluctant guests. When he saw me come in, he rushed back to the microphone to say "Oops, the bride is back. This was on her do not play list!" while grinning. When he finally did play something that I had requested, he prefaced the song by saying "I will allow this, just this once" while glaring at me menacingly. At the end of the night, he cut off the music abruptly in the middle of the last song, and announced that the evening was over. He then tried to drunkenly embrace and kiss my guests who were leaving. My mother-in-law was horrified. It was a nightmarish experience. Unfortunately, the nightmare didn't end there. I emailed him to express my absolute horror at the evening. Ever since then, he has been non stop calling me and texting me almost exclusively between the hours of 11pm and 5am despite my multiple attempts to ask him to stop harassing me and to simply respond by email. I have had to block his number as he will not stop harassing me. I have since talked with several guests who were too embarrassed to say anything on the day of the wedding because they thought the terrible songs were requested by me. What was supposed to be a wonderful day of friends, family, good food, and dancing has become a terrible memory. I have almost no pictures or video of dancing because the dance floor was embarrassingly empty for almost the entire night. John has failed to respond to my emails. He has failed to offer any reparations for his drunken and inappropriate behavior. I only hope that by posting this review, he will never again have a chance to ruin someone's wedding.

We used DJ Evan from Party Pro DJ for our wedding. Evan was very nice, and Beth (the manager) was…read moreincredibly helpful, responsive, and kind. I would definitely recommend using this company, BUT with some major caveats that I wish I had clarified. PROS: Very professional, responsive, reasonably priced, great website, MOSTLY followed our instructions that we wanted a DJ who was completely non-involved. We did not want the kind of DJ who bellows, "And nowwww, presenting for the verrrrry first time...put your hands together for MR. AND MRS. SMITH!!!!" In other words, we didn't want anyone who sounded like they could double as a radio DJ or a WWE announcer. We wanted someone who would quietly put songs on the stereo from the corner, and maybe say "If folks could please take their seats, dinner is about to be served." That's it. Evan did a GREAT job of this, except for during the cake cutting, when he took it upon himself to narrate the entire thing, which just made me cringe and whisper to my new husband "What is he doing?!?" It was distracting and tacky. CONS: The one thing we cared about most was having a DJ that would give us full control over the songs. Party Pro is perfect for this because you can create as much or little of your playlist as you want (re: you can create 100%, and we tried to). We used their website to create three playlists: "Dinner Music," "Must Plays," and "Would Likes," which are the lists the website prompts you with. (There is also a "Don't Play" list, to which we said "anything not on our other lists"). Evan did only play songs from our three lists, so that was good and as expected. However, apparently we also needed to be explicit about the fact that the songs on the "Must Play" list were higher priorities than the songs on the "Would Like" list. We weren't, because we thought this was very obvious from the titles of the lists (are we crazy there?!?). I also referred to these lists as "Tier 1" and "Tier 2" throughout my correspondence with Evan and Beth, so I thought that also made it clear. Not so much. Evan played many songs from the Tier 2 list before getting to all of the Tier 1 list, and as a result, many of the songs we had really, really cared about hearing were never played because there wasn't time. There was more than enough time for the whole Tier 1 list, but we had put extra songs on the Tier 2 list just for a buffer. It was very frustrating to hear Tier 2 songs before all the Tier 1 songs were played (actually, I think he ended up playing more Tier 2s, which really made me mad!). Ultimately, it was fine, because we had a dance-friendly crowd and, quite frankly, the Tier 2 songs were still good enough to keep everyone on the dance floor the whole night. So from that angle, Evan was great. But we had put some very danceable songs on our Tier 1 list that also had great sentimental value, and many of these were sorely missed by my husband and me. I will confess this is my only regret about our wedding (not a huge one, but a regret nonetheless). Looking back, I really think we were clear enough in our prep meeting about what we wanted, but apparently not--too late for us, but not for you. : ) All of that being said, I would still recommend Evan and Party Pro...just make sure you spell everything out six ways from Sunday.

Good pictures start from being at ease and Carrie will definitely put you at ease. Even from the first consultation, she makes you feel like you are the only client and the only one that matters. Her pictures are amazing and every now and then she'll say "Let me try something" - those will be the best pictures. One thing I was not expecting was for her to help me draw up a timeline for the day. I didn't have a wedding planner and kind of cobbled it all together myself. Carrie, based on all her experience, advised me on getting hair and makeup done earlier (she was right), having the flowers delivered earlier (she was right again - especially since the delivery was running late), and leaving earlier to get to the church. As she said, no bride has ever complained about being too early. I wasn't too early at any stage and her timeline actually prevented me from being late and stressed out. The second photographer she came with (Dan) was just as great. After meeting him for the first time on the day of the wedding, I was instantly at ease with him in under 5 mins. I could go on and on but no one will read a super long review. Bottom line - book Carrie. You won't regret it!
