Wedding October 28, 2023
The Golf Club at Little Turtle was the first venue that we looked at. I knew after we saw it that we really didn’t need to look at other venues. It was the one. The whole place is beautiful from the entry to the ball room and outside space down to the locker room/dressing areas where we got ready. We worked with Tyger through every detail and she is absolutely fantastic at what she does. She made everything so easy. The day of was literally stress free for us!! She kept everything rolling and made sure everyone knew exactly what they were doing. Dinner was amazing. We had mahi-mahi, chicken marsala, and braised short ribs with macaroni and cheese and red potatoes. EVERYONE still talks about how good the food was. The whole experience was better than I could have imagined! We are so happy that we picked The Golf Club at Little Turtle for our wedding. We highly recommend them!
