We could not have asked for a better wedding experience than the one we had here! From the second we met Mandy and Greg (the owners) and then toured the property, we were hooked. They are so experienced in the wedding industry and made our vision of our big day a reality. One of the best parts of our wedding weekend was the all-inclusive nature of the property. We got access starting Friday and had the venue all the way until Sunday. This allowed us to bring our decorations and start setup without last minute stress. The night before we had our ceremony rehearsal and then held a bonfire for our guests. The morning of we used their onsite cabins to get ready, and then took some of the most breathtaking photos. You can tell just how much thought that they put into making the landscape beautiful, with endless flowers. Our guests had a wonderful experience as well, with attendants for parking and constant friendly faces directing them where to go. The site for the ceremony is just a short walk from where you park and is right on the river…. gorgeous. Our other vendors were able to communicate easily with the venue owners and it allowed for our day to go by stress-free. Day of coordination is included and truly made the experience. We met with Mandy and Greg multiple times during the planning process and it allowed us to put full faith in them. The venue is spacious which is ideal for a variety of different vendors, allowing for personalization of your day without fear that things won’t fit. Meeting Mandy and Greg was fate, and led to our day being more than we ever could have imagined. We cannot thank them enough for taking our vision and making it a reality! We can’t wait to come back for future events, both ours and others, and see the venue flourish and grow.

My wife and I had the absolute BEST wedding imaginable at the Sinclair. Every little detail was perfect. The care and attention that was paid by every single staff-person, vendor and employee was second to none. The venue is STUNNING and you can tell how much care went into making the space everything any couple would want from a wedding venue. It would be very difficult to find a venue and team that exceeds what you will get at the Sinclair. Every member of the Sinclair and Rosalies team were as communicative as possible. Anytime we reached out throughout the planning process, we got quick and thorough responses. There was no guessing about how our day would go. They perfected every detail; Our guest have been raving non-stop about the venue, food and service. Thank you thank thank you!
