The facility is spacious with round tables and chairs seating 10 people per table. We had to bring in our own table cloths and decor. Overall the space is nice. They have a good size kitchen for good food prep. The venue was very warm, and guest are not allowed to change the temperature settings which is problematic. The Gazebo outside is perfect for pictures and we enjoyed the outdoor space far better than the interior. Additionally the bathrooms did not supply enough toilet paper, and staff was reluctant to respond to our request to replenish them. After the event we were rushed to vacate the premises.

My husband and I were married here on May 6, 2018. I originally found this place by searching…read moreFlorida elopement when we were living in Virginia. I spoke with Gary over the phone and email and I quickly booked this location. It is absolutely gorgeous! Gary and Marti were so accommodating. Gary allowed me to change part of a ceremony to omit some wording that didn't apply to us. I picked the elopement package but I really wanted a cake. Gary and Marti were able to accommodate my request. Before the actual wedding Gary sat down with me and my now husband. He explained everything about the marriage license (which he sent off for us), marriage certificate and pictures. He really made us feel comfortable. Marti took some amazing photos. It rained on our wedding but the photos are still gorgeous. There is a covered patio so it didnt ruins the day. One of my favorite pictures is us outside under an umbrella. It's so adorable. Marti was super sweet even with my new mother in law who for some reason kept barking commands about photos and packaging the cake. If you are looking for a place to get married I would highly recommend this location. It's gorgous. Gary and Marti are so friendly.

Prices are great with ceremony and photography included. But buyer beware the photography they showed us examples of and what we got back was nothing like what they showed us, my friends I-phone photos were way better. When I downloaded the photos, I cried when I saw the photos and I was on my honeymoon which 2 days of my honeymoon was ruined because I was so upset. All the background of the lake was totally blown out and so was my dress so forget about wearing white. This was my wedding and there are no redo's! I was so upset I told Gary and he said it's standard photography, no this was sub-standard! I would be embarrassed to give this to anyone let alone the bride! He took offense and said that this was standard photography but for an xtra charge they would fix it. I complained with several emails and they finally redid our photos without charging the up charge which was acceptable. I felt scammed and lied to. If I had known the photography was so bad I would have had my own photographer. It left a bad taste and memories for our wedding. Too bad because they have a beautiful place. I had my reception somewhere else and thank God I hired a wonderful newer photographer that did outstanding work. They should be more upfront with their prices and give people options to get their own photographer.

I recently attended a wedding held at Bridle Oaks in Deland, FL. I was, for the most part, very…read moreimpressed with the location. It was certainly a beautiful place to hold a wedding, from the actual spot where the vows were exchanged, to the small open area where the appetizers were served (and open bar) to the bar area where the remainder of reception was held. All of it was visually appealing as it was definitely very functional for the purpose it was used. Staff were friendly, if not overly so, and certainly took care of the bride and groom and their direct family - as you would expect. The s'mores on a cool evening was a nice touch and one I definitely took advantage.

Wow! What a lovely night! Rudy was an excellent waiter making wonderful recommendations and…read moreproviding outstanding service. However, everyone we encountered was helpful, friendly and cared about our experience. We started with the Antipasto Della Casa was lovely! Cannelloni beans, marinated shrimp, cheese. Salami, olives, and more! For dinner we had the Bucatini Alla Enzo and the Filetto Con Formaggio. The pasta was outstanding! The mushrooms made the dish but the quality of all the ingredients--excellent! Rudy's recommendation of the Chianti paired perfectly. The steak my partner had was cooked perfectly and was melt in your mouth tender. The slice of cake for my birthday and the cookies were a great ending. Be sure to go outside and sit by the lake. We listened to the guitarist for a while and watched the sun set. A perfect special occasion place but also somewhere to have a few drinks and nibbles and enjoy the sunset and music.

The lakeside view provides a stunning, romantic backdrop that elevates the entire evening--it's easily one of the most beautiful settings in Central Florida. The Highlights * The Custom Antipasto Tray: This is the star of the show. I love that you get to choose exactly the items you want. We opted for the mushrooms and shrimp, plus much more and all items were incredibly fresh and flavorful. It's a great way to tailor your starters to your specific cravings. * Fresh Starters: The house salad is a standout--crisp, fresh, and a perfect lead-in to the main course. * The Main Event: The Veal Scaloppine was tender and seasoned perfectly. It's clear they use high-quality cuts and traditional techniques here. * Sweet Finishes: Definitely save room for dessert. The wedding cake is wonderful and moist, and the peppermint ice cream is a refreshing, nostalgic treat that I highly recommend. Pro Tip: Parking They offer free valet parking, which makes the arrival seamless. Just a friendly reminder to bring some cash to tip the driver, as they provide excellent service! Overall: Between the customizable appetizers and the gorgeous view of the water, Enzo's is a top-tier choice for a special night out.

We had our wedding reception here in October 2022…read more Pros: - the venue is beautiful - the food wait staff were friendly and helpful Cons: - we found a snake in the venue while setting up and had to trap and release it outside ourselves - we were up sold on a bunch of tv/display screens ($1,000+) but they didn't function properly and ruined our grand entrance. They refused to refund us for this. We didn't even get much support for the set up of the screen. The tech they sent didn't speak English so we couldn't even communicate what the problems were to them. - The venue is grossly over priced ($18k+ for 5pm-11pm) - Josephine, the owner or operator of the business, was not communicative. We asked her to confirm things multiple times well before the reception and heard very little to nothing back so we had to hope she was going to deliver. She was rude and dismissive at times to my family members and wedding planner. - we ended up having to put together much of the decorations ourselves even though we paid for the staffing Overall, we did the best we could with what we had to enjoy our special night. But we would not recommend our experience to others - especially not for the price they asked of us.

Growing up in Altamonte Springs, I had driven by Maison & Jardin too many times to count. I…read moreremember how upscale, exotic and enticing the European-style restaurant seemed tucked away behind lush trees and a long driveway entrance. As luck may have it, a friend of mine decided to have his wedding reception in one of the smaller private rooms. I was astounded by the beauty of the place. Seeing it up close was breath-taking. Archways, ornate decorations, elaborate flower decorations, over-sized windows that overlook lush landscaping including a small pond surrounded by statues. The overall atmosphere is perfect for any special occasion and it lends itself very well to beautifully composed photographs. Inside the lighting continued setting the perfect mood with dim lighting, low playing music and upscale table settings. Not idle for photo taking but great for setting the right mood. While absolutely beautiful and stunning, for all the luxury and European charm, I wasn't too thrilled with the food and the room the reception was held in was quite small. And I'm sure it all came with a hefty price-tag.

ONLY GAVE 3 stars for how beautiful the venue is NOT THE CUSTOMER SERVICE…read more We are 22 days away from our wedding and due to lack of communication, time management, and organization we made the choice to CANCEL. The disorganization of meeting to do final planning and final pricing was just the start of our disappointment. They have a policy of paying all fees 60 days before the event which is completely understandable. What is not understandable is holding us accountable for them being late with final paper work, 35 days late. When we were first contacted to discuss our wedding plans we were under the impression we were meeting to discuss arrangement of the room and timing for the day. To our surprise it was more about what we wanted to add to our bill because it was already late and because it was late there is a 10% late fee but they will "wave it" if we pay immediately. Mind you at the meeting all the questions we asked 90% of the response was "We can figure that out the day of the wedding," I did contact the owner and inform her of this iteration. Long story short we then had another horrible experience when it came to trying to pay our bill and the owner threatening to cancel our date and add the late fee back on. They have no empathy, understanding, or time management. Will blame you for there mistakes and expect you to give them grace but not show it in return. Like I said beautiful venue hate that we lost 1,000 in this place do to there horrible management style only use this place with a wedding coordinator.
