MEET THE OWNERS
Two families came together
Since their college days, Mike and Keith have been close friends and business partners. With their families in tow, they embarked on transforming a mid century home into a beautiful wedding venue. Throughout the process, the families have made countless memories on the property. Now as the renovations are completed and the venue has opened, the families envision a place where many joyous celebrations will take place (perhaps even a wedding or two for their own children some day)!
