What People Are Saying…

Our family and friends have not stopped raving about our reception…the delicious food and beautiful setting! Working with you to plan our reception was such a relief during a stressful time!

From the time and effort you put into the appetizer table and trays for the wedding party bus ride to the elegantly set tables and exquisite meal, we truly felt like royalty!

Your staff was so kind and accommodating to our questions and requests!

We have some friends hosting their reception at The Veranda @ The Whitcomb this summer and I have shared our experience with them. If any new client would like to speak with a former one, we would be happy to be a reference!

Thank you so much for everything you did to make our day special!

Love,
Jake & Melissa Cook

Our wedding ceremony and reception were here and it was amazing! Our guests were raving about the view and the venue and kept asking how we found it. Simply magnificent and the architecture there lends to gorgeous photos with a very timeless quality.

We were able to book the Veranda only 6 weeks before our wedding (our previous venue broke our contract, forcing us to find an alternative) and I cannot say how THRILLED I was to have the Veranda as our wedding and reception site!

The view is breathtaking and all of our guests were amazed at how gorgeous the veranda and surroundings were. David (the manager there) was responsive, flexible, and very helpful considering my stress and time crunch. I HIGHLY recommend this as a #1 option for couples looking for a romantic, memorable and unique setting to celebrate. Guaranteed to keep your guests talking for years! Happy Planning!
