This is a beautiful and an amazing venue with a flare of elegance. Sunset Gardens will exceed all of your expectations and then some. My husband and I were married on January 15, 2011. We had a destination wedding so we decided it would be best to find a venue that offered wedding packages. We were on The Knot’s website and Sunset Gardens was voted “Best of Weddings of 2010” so we decided to fly into town and check it out for ourselves. When we walked through the doors we knew right away that “this was the place!” The wedding package we chose included much more than we’d expected and the price was just right. We had about 50 guests and the package included the following: a Wedding Coordinator, Minister, Photographer, Bridal Suite with complimentary champagne, a three hour Reception, an experienced DJ, Open Bar, a five item buffet dinner, two tier wedding cake, a choice of colors for the table linens,chairs and lovely glass bowls with floating candles as centerpieces. “No, I’m not kidding!”
We weren’t sure what vendors to use for our flowers, favors, invitations etc…and located next door to the venue is Petal Flowers, Michelle’s Bridal, Joleon Salon and Day Spa, and Bowties Bridal Boutique and Tuxedo Rentals. Although we purchased my dress and my husband’s tuxedo in another state, Bowties steamed them both for $60.00 and it was hung in the bridal suite when I arrived. Sunset Gardens also gives you a GREAT discount for using any of these vendors and they were great to work with.
Our Wedding ceremony began at dusk in the most beautiful chapel and our Wonderful Reception was held in the Sunset Room. There is a lovely courtyard with twinkling lights on the trees which made a great view for our guests to enjoy and gorgeous pictures with my husband and I. The chapel and reception were already decorated so beautifully that we only added rose petals down the aisles of the chapel, all the tables and the wedding cake table. DJ Syd was a perfect M.C. and everyone enjoyed him. There was a lot of dancing, laughter, mingling and of course, love in the air. The buffet was superb! We had the Chef’s Special Chicken, Fettuccine Alfredo, Red Skinned Potatoes, Mixed Green Leaf Salad, Dinner rolls and the best Prime Rib ever! Our guests raved about the food and the catering services provided by the staff. Kathy from “Tiers of Joy” was a pleasure to work with and our cake was delicious. If you get your Photographs done during the wedding and reception, please choose the upgrade…I guarantee that you won’t be disappointed. Steven Shofner did a splendid job on our photos. We loved them!
Tony, the owner and Chris, our coordinator, have mastered the art of creating pure elegance and intimacy for weddings. They have a knack for paying close attention to details and they made us feel so incredibly special on our wedding day and we will cherish that always. Their staff was awesome!. All the planning is done for you so there are no worries.
We would definately recommend SUNSET GARDENS to anyone who wants the wedding of their dreams!!!
