Awarded Best of Zola
We had the absolute wedding of our dreams at Flagstaff House — truly a fairy tale come to life, and somehow even better than we imagined. From the moment we began working with Annie, we knew we were in the best hands. She was warm, responsive, incredibly organized, and always ready with thoughtful solutions. She made every step of planning feel seamless, and her calm, confident presence allowed us to truly enjoy the process and the day itself. The staff at Flagstaff House was just as exceptional — attentive, kind, and effortlessly professional. Our guests felt so well cared for, and we received compliment after compliment about the level of service throughout the evening. And the food… absolutely impeccable. Every dish was executed to perfection — flavorful, artfully presented, and reflective of the high standard Flagstaff House is known for. The venue itself is nothing short of magical. With its stunning views and intimate elegance, it provided the most breathtaking backdrop for our celebration. We’re still floating from how perfect the day was — and that’s entirely thanks to Annie, her team, and the beauty and excellence that is Flagstaff House. We are forever grateful.
