I had such a remarkable experience here at the best western. Everyone is so friendly, and the sales manager helped me through the whole entire wedding planning process. I had my wedding ceremony in the evergreen garden, and the layout of the garden reminded me of a fairytale wedding. My cocktail hour experience was hosted in Deacons Tavern and it was so much fun! Between the bartenders offering such amazing drinks and the indoor and outdoor patio was stunning! My reception was hosted in the Ballroom, and it was a clean slate to really vision my wedding in! I was going for a fairytale wedding and when I had my first look into reception, it was truly everything I could have ever imagined! I highly recommend checking out this venue.
