“We truly appreciate your hospitality, and we were so impressed with the alumni house and your staff. Everyone had great things to say about the brunch. People loved the food and what we were able to do with the space. The grounds were just as beautiful as you had described, though seeing truly is believing in that regard. It was a real game-changer to be able to decorate the day before and helped us to focus on our event on the day of the wedding. It truly made the difference for us to have you on-site during every part of the process. Thanks again--you are truly running a great operation.”
