As a wedding planner I've seen amazing wedding venues and mediocre wedding venues, but I can honestly say that the Bend Event Center had a flawless setup and was amazing to work with. Their staff was super helpful not only on the wedding day, but during the planning process as well. I will continue to recommend them to all my future couples!

Tamory Hall was the venue we didn’t know would bring our dream day to life! My now husband is from Egypt and I am from Puerto Rico. One of the hardest things when planning our wedding was finding a very special location. Traveling and planning a wedding across the ocean was very intimidating so we got very discouraged at first when planning since we wanted to celebrate at a very special and unique location. Little did we know that just about 45 minutes away from us there was a venue that checked every box in our list. From unique, special, SURROUNDED BY TULIPS, wonderful vendors, and the one and only KAYLA; Tamory Hall was everything we needed. Our families traveled from very far away from breathtaking places to a place they will always cherish with their hearts. Everyone loved the wonderful town of Pella and its people along with the Tulips. Lastly, special shoutout to Kayla from bringing our idea to life and for making sure everything ran smoothly and wonderfully. She recommended vendors that provided what we needed and more!! Thank you Tamory Hall and Team!!

Linda and Liz have been such a joy to work with! They have been quick to respond to emails and happy to answer all my questions. When we met in person to tour the space, we felt welcome right away –– like old friends catching up. I love that VOWS is focused on small and intimate weddings – a lot of venues in town are geared toward the larger capacity and that's just not really our style. What's even better is that everything from officiant to photographer to food and drink is included in our package, so I don't have to stress over a million different things or vendors. Our wedding isn't until 2024, but we could not be more excited to host our close friends and family at VOWS! I am very much looking forward to working with the VOWS team as our date nears to finalize all the details.
