*Long read*
As a first-time bride, I was oozing constant stress energy. I did not have a wedding planner, I myself am not an organized or party planning type of person, and I had to figure out all that went into a wedding day very non-traditionally because no one in my immediate family has had a large wedding before me. The first thing on our list to lock down was the venue. I had 3 places in mind, but simply after reviewing their website and FB page, Gooseberry was giving me a feeling that I was looking for. We decided we would set up a visit there first. After touring the venue, meeting the staff, hearing their story, and being treated like a member of their own family with genuine warmth from the first moment, we knew who we were going to have host our special day. I was worried that I wouldn't be able to pull off my dream wedding I had envisioned, however the reassurance that I got from Tammy and the staff put me at ease. They were offering not only a venue, but also coordinating services and decorating services. I met with them to discuss what vibe I wanted and which vendors we were using and while I was explaining decor options and set-up options to Liz, it was almost like she was finishing my sentences and reading my mind! Their inventory of decor is a whole buildings worth and they have every style imaginable from elegant, to boho, to country, to you name it! As far as the venue itself, it is STUNNING! Everything for your day is on site: ceremony grounds, reception, full kitchen, full bar (with top-notch bartenders included) bridal suite, grooms suite EVERYTHING. Tammy led our rehearsal the night before and her and the staff decorated for and with me to make sure no major tasks were needing to be done on the morning of wedding day. The next day, I was a ball of nerves, but Tammy and Bailey were literal ANGELS and knew all of the ins-and-outs of navigating the schedule. I did not have to speak to even one vendor (cake, food-caterering, DJ). THEY HANDLED IT ALL. The only thing I had to do that day was get beautified for the ceremony and hang out with my bridal party. When it was time for the ceremony, Tammy and Bailey were right there next to me in one of the biggest moments of my life. They have these gorgeous barn doors at the end which they had closed for me, It was a HOT summer day and Bailey even held my fan while Tammy assured that my veil was aligned. I was filled with the excitement butterflies and I was also emotional because my father was not able to be present to walk me down the aisle, however I did not feel alone because these two ladies took those last calming breaths with me and I will never forget how deep that resonated in that moment and still does. After the ceremony, they were keeping the reception running smooth and checked in with me often to see if I needed anything. We all had an amazing time and I truly owe it all to Gooseberry. They even presented my husband and I with an unexpected bottle of wine with our picture on it as a gift and some personalized wine glasses! I would 100% recommend them for any bride and we are so lucky to have had the opportunity to create those memories of an unforgettable day. What an experience all around, thank you Tammy and Gooseberry Staff!

Gooseberry Creek is the perfect venue! Tammy was amazing to work with she was prompt and so professional. We had the weekend wedding package which allowed us to decorate on friday and have our rehearsal dinner at the venue, it was so convenient and made our day stress free! We opted for the coordinating package it was worth every penny! Tammy and her team made everything so easy. Their decor closet was amazing and the teams eye for decoration made the day so beautiful! In all I bought just one sign she had EVERYTHING you could think of.

I was one that was effected by Noah's and my so called dream wedding was out the window......So I thought. Long story short, after being contacted by tons of vendors and connecting with some, I connect with Tammy. After some praying and going over our options, we decided to go with Tammy. Why? because we could tell that she really had a passion for working in this industry and truly cares. She is for sure doing what she loves and is GREAT at it a long with her staff! We build a really good relationship even before we decided to book with her....I will be honest it wasn't like some other venues who seemed to only want us for the money and didn't really sit down and talked to us. (At the time the Gooseberry was still being build, but after meeting with Tammy something told me I needed to go with her even thought I had meeting with other places buuuut I am glad I did!)

Sept 19th came and man what a day it was, Tammy and her staff blew me away and I couldn't be more happy n blessed! They took care of everything ,(set up tables and stuff we went in and added our little touches here n there) over all everything went smoothly and was perfect! I could go on and on about them 10000 out of 5 stars I recommend!

I am No longer a Noah's Bride.....but forever a Gooseberry Creek Bride!

Thank you soooo much so for all that you did for us Tammy it was a rough year of planning with all the things that happen but you and your fabulous staff made our day special and beautiful and we will forever be grateful! much love, -The Hett's
