...just an incredibly pleased Mom-Review here of Alena Highland and her staff at Highland Gardens.  My daughter's wedding was there yesterday and the whole family can't say enough good things about this venue!  From beginning to end we were treated professionally, respectfully and also lovingly and made to feel like our event was the most important wedding of the year.  

The outdoor ceremony site was of course manicured and prepped down to every last detail at wedding time and the covered pavillion and food service areas were all spotless and artfully arranged for us.  Alena guided us along the way during day serving as not only venue host but DOC for my daughter and now son-in-law.  She kept the day's events running smoothly and helped us all maintain a pleasing schedule.  Our guests commented on it being the best wedding they'd been to and how happy they were to have made the drive into the peaceful countryside to celebrate with us. 

And in this difficult economy we were especially pleased with the feeling of tremendous value for the services Alena offered us.  With an event price comparable to similar outdoor venues in the area we were provided many, many more extras that other venues required families to provide in addition such as tables, chairs, linens, food service containers, beverage vessels, assorted tents and awnings, even assistance with supplementing our wait-staff...just amaziing!

There hasn't been a way to do a formal vendor review for this site yet but as soon as the system posts it I will be thrilled to offer more great comments.  I'll post a link to the Highland Gardens page if you'd like to view pictures and read about it for yourself.  Can't wait to get my daughter's pro pics back to see more of the day than just my happy memories.

Haha--replying to myself but I have more pictures posted.  Here is a link to the weddingbee post with the picture links.  Sorry it is more clicking but I just couldn't make the thumbnails work instead.
