    The Larimore and the Staff was the perfect choice for our wedding! First of all the grounds and house, the outdoor ceremony area, the gazebo, the reception hall, and more were just gorgeous! We had so much support and encouragement through the whole process. The team was so sweet, especially Hailey who was our venue coordinator for our special day. She made things run so smoothly and beautifully! The team and Hailey was so patient and helpful as well with all the different details needed for the day to go off without a hitch! I highly recommend the Larimore for your wedding day!

    There was no one anywhere to be found. The cheese cloth were not on the tables. The Chargers weren’t on the tables. The DJ called for someone to turn the lights off and no one came out so we can get the party started. We had to set the stuff on the side and they told us not to but overall the place was beautiful. I said the MF bomb in front of the guest, which was very unprofessional. It was water on the dance floor. We couldn’t find anyone to mop it out so my cousin had to. There was no rugs when you came in from outside and someone slid.

    The Larimore was the perfect venue for my nieces wedding celebration. From the moment we first inquired, their communication was always quick and responsive. The venue itself is beautiful, with multiple locations on site that allowed them to have their ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception in different spaces. We wanted to use their floating candles in the fountain, and they were happy to accommodate that request. When we needed to come up with an alternative plan for hanging a curtain in the reception hall, their on-site coordinator, Hailey, was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. Hailey was friendly, efficient, and went above and beyond to ensure the day was exactly as my niece wanted it. I couldn't have handled all the little details without her. Her calming presence and willingness to help with any task or question eased the brides nerves. We are so grateful to the entire Larimore team for making our wedding day perfect.
