There are not enough words to describe how thankful I am for everyone at Club Continental. The Club Continental was an incredible venue for our wedding day. From the moment we first inquired, Carla made us feel so welcomed. And no matter how many ridiculous questions I had, their communication was fast and thorough, addressing all of our questions and providing helpful suggestions. On the day of, the staff went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly - and me, being a dummy, forgot all about a Notary. but The Club went out of their way to find us a last-minute notary when we needed one, and assisted with the setup. The evening manager, overseeing the wedding was so attentive, helpful and accommodating the entire time. I can not express how thankful we were to have him there. Everything ran smoothly because of him. The venue itself is simply magic. So incredibly beautiful, with such a warm and welcoming atmosphere. It was like stepping into a different world when you got on those grounds. And the stunning natural settings were just breathtaking. We were blown away by the amazing and friendly staff, not only the day of the wedding, but the entire week we stayed there. The breakfast staff was incredible, I wanted to become part of her family!! And let’s not forget the FOOD!! Salivating just thinking about it. They offered a couple food tasting events which allowed you to taste some of their different options before you decide on a menu. This was extremely helpful because what I thought I’d choose vs what I actually chose were complete opposites, and that’s because I was able to get those samples in. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect location to celebrate our special day and I can’t wait to go back and spend a few days there.
