Seasons At Magnolia Manor

Mirieli Faria

I had my wedding here couple months ago. I had a beautiful wedding thanks to Jennifer and her staff, everything came together perfectly. The food was amazing and all of my guests loved it! Our photographer was great as well, he was helpful and was everywhere! The whole staff was wonderful. Thank you seasons at magnolia manor for the beautiful wedding!

Yesterday I had my baby shower at Magnolia and it is going to be difficult to put in to words how perfect it was! To start off, my shower was scheduled for Saturday March 12, and we received a pretty unexpected snow with blizzard conditions. Jennifer had to send her team home due to a state of emergency in the area but quickly offered two replacement dates for the shower, one being THE VERY NEXT DAY! We understood the importance of keeping everyone safe and luckily most of our guests were able to be flexible and come the next day. The venue was able to pivot seamlessly and everything was in place to a tee. The decor and decorating were so spectacular! We gave an idea of the theme/style we wanted and that’s about it. All of the details were then put together by Jennifer and her team. It was stunning and flawless! All of my guests couldn’t have loved the decor anymore. The food was fabulous! We did a brunch menu and both the breakfast and lunch foods were amazing. There was an issue with the bathrooms because of the weather and they were able to open an alternate bathroom that guests could easily access. My family and I greatly appreciate all the hard work that went in to making my shower beautiful, thoughtful, and special! We highly recommend this venue!!!

An all inclusive wedding venue, you get what you pay for. Let's start with the parking area: it would bottom out most sedans. When this was brought to the Owner/manager's attention she explained that she was aware of it but wanted to do the cheap fix that washes out when there are heavy storms. I suggest 4x4s or ATVs when trying to park. Nothing went according to the schedule that the venue had provided during the rehearsal. The owner/manager called the bride by the wrong name. She was more concerned at the rehearsal with signing paperwork for another wedding than taking care of the wedding that was about to take place. The schedule claimed that photographers would show up at noon, one photographer showed up at 12:15. The primary photographer showed up hours later wearing cover-alls and rain boots. The photographers took terrible photos, the one photographer had never taken any sort of photography class, unfortunately it showed. There is only one photo of the bridal party, not to mention a lack of photos with the family. So the photos were ruined. During the ceremony I looked over and the venue owner/manager sidled up to the bar and got herself a cocktail. It was really nice to reward her hard work with a cocktail. The food was terrible. I have never been served a quarter of a chicken breast. The texture was so rubbery, I couldn't bring myself to finish it. Overall everything was terrible and sucked. The venue brought out a pizza truck at the end of the night, it kind of made up for all of the mistakes... until the photos came back. I'm certain that the venue owner will try to write a response justifying everything, but take my word for it, the wedding venue did not deliver and failed my friends who were married. Look elsewhere for a wedding venue.

Went to a wedding here a few weeks back. It was an evening wedding on a cold 40° day. The outdoor ceremony area was not level with seats sloping up the hill. One heater was available where the grandmother sat. The seats were narrow and they arranged them with zero space between them but hey, that helped me get used to the reception room where they put 10 of the same chairs at an 8' table with zero space between them. Crammed in! When you got up you just stayed up because you couldn't get back to your seat when a few were seated at the adjacent table. They didn't preheat the tent/room so it was freezing and they couldn't get the heat going for another 40 minutes. However the heater only blasted in one corner of the room so those that sat near it were roasted and the rest just didn't get very warm. It was also a B&B and some of the wedding party spent the night. The breakfast served in the reception room the following morning was no better with the freezing room and cold food. Back to the wedding, as you adjourned from the ceremony you blindly stood in a line not knowing that around the corner where you couldn't see was the bar. You wait out in the cold until you found out that you were standing in the bar line and could just go into the freezing reception room and get out of the cold??? Well, I guess it just didn't matter where you were cold. And the one outhouse restroom was a real nifty feature too. I believe that they over booked the capacity and, failed to consider the comfort of the guests on multiple points. A smaller party of 80 might have enjoyed it much better but the staff could have managed things better. I wouldn't go there. You only get one chance to make a first impression. On a positive note, the food was good. I believe the wedding party was more satisfied than not. Very happy for them as it was otherwise a beautiful ceremony and a generally nice place. The deficiencies really come down to the management and lack of attention to detail. If you go there get a wedding planner to make sure things are done right.
