While the Mansion is beautiful and the food is good - they will nickel and dime you to death - it is not worth it - My wedding was about my husband, family and friends and the wonderful people in our lives. Dealing with the stress of this fee and that fee over and over again, no free tasting - in the end I was emailed a total of 10 different invoices not including the site fee invoice and what they took out of the security deposit, it just slowly takes away the magic of the day. When I look back I see the smiling faces of the guests not the backdrop of Aldie and I do my best not to think about the painful process that got us there and the not so perfect execution of the process by the staff.
