I don’t even know where to begin. Our wedding day was absolute perfection! The Wedgewood team made the planning process so easy and stress free. And when our wedding day came, everything was just perfect. Tabitha, our coordinator, was so amazing and helped our vision come to life, and made the day run smoothly and stress free. Our banquet captain Kelly, was so sweet and was on it our entire reception. I’m so sad our wedding day is over but so thankful to the entire Wedgewood team for creating such an unforgettable day. THANK YOU ALL! Love, Matt & Jess.

We truly cannot thank Canopy Grove by Wedgewood Weddings enough for all the care and support they gave us not just on our wedding day, but throughout the planning and in all the days leading up to the wedding! My husband and I were apart for 4 out of 6 months of the preparation, so the wedding planning was definitely not easy. The all-in package offered by Wedgewood was a such a big help for us as it minimized the stress of planning with all the inclusions and recommended vendors. The venue was so gorgeous and intimate, we immediately knew that this was the one for us. The whole team was also very helpful and accommodating since day one. We’re really lucky to have Canopy Grove as our venue, Wedgewood Weddings as our team, and Katey as our coordinator. They made our dream wedding possible so thank you so so much from the bottom of our hearts!
