Dow Diamond was the perfect venue. The entire staff was so kind and our guests couldn’t stop complimenting the uniqueness and impressiveness of the venue. It was so convenient that they do in-house catering. The food was delicious! Dave made sure everything ran smoothly and nothing went wrong. We couldn’t have asked for a better place for our wedding.
