Their communication throughout the planning process was very good - they were responsive and helpful in guiding us through all the options. The venue itself was beautiful, with open lots of space that allowed us to customize the layout to our liking.

We chose to have our wedding at Glen Ellen knowing it would be the perfect place to execute our romantic garden-inspired vision, and we were right! Our guests raved about our venue all evening and it was truly magical. We can't thank Debbie enough for all her hard work and for working so seamlessly with our vendors to make us happy. We will cherish our wedding memories at Glen Ellen forever!
