We could mot have asked for a better team to help get us through our special day. Maria and Jackie are amazing! I didn't want for a single thing that day. It was if they were mind readers. The food was fantastic! I can’t count how many friends have reached out to say how fun the wedding was or how good the food and cupcakes were. Everything was perfect. They met all of my expectations and more. I will forever be grateful to them.

Getting married at The Rose was truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. The venue itself is breathtaking.. it has so much history, character, and charm. It’s not just a place to host a wedding, it’s an experience. Many of our guests couldn’t stop talking about how unique and stunning the setting was, and how perfectly located it is. From the moment we walked in, it felt like the kind of place where memories live forever. The staff made the entire experience seamless. Everyone was kind, attentive, and on top of everything from the very beginning. We chose the Mexican buffet for dinner, and it was absolutely phenomenal.. our guests raved about it all night long. The bar service was also outstanding. Every bartender went above and beyond, keeping drinks full and energy high throughout the entire night. But as incredible as the venue and staff were, the absolute best part of our entire experience was Patrica. I don’t even know if words can do justice to who she is and what she did for us. I have never met someone so hardworking, caring, and genuinely passionate about their work. Her communication is extraordinary.. she doesn’t just keep you in the loop, she makes you feel completely supported and understood every step of the way. From day one, Patricia was there for us in every single detail: walkthroughs, tastings, worksheets, endless questions.. you name it, she handled it with grace and precision. She is incredibly detailed and organized, and because of her, we never once felt the “wedding stress” that everyone warns you about. She made planning feel easy, enjoyable, and even fun. By the month of our wedding, we literally had nothing left to do, because Patricia had made sure everything was already taken care of. That sense of calm she gave us was priceless. Our family and wedding party were blown away at the rehearsal, we spent the whole night talking about how impressed we were with Patricia. And when the wedding day came, it was effortless. We didn’t worry about a single thing. Even our DJ and photographer kept telling us how incredible Patricia was and how much easier she made things for them too. She not only ensured our vision came to life, she made the entire day flow beautifully for everyone involved. Patrica is so much more than a coordinator or a vendor to us.. she has truly become a friend. We are endlessly grateful for her and everything she has done. It’s honestly bittersweet because while we’re so thankful, we know we will miss her deeply. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you, Patricia, for making our wedding not only beautiful but also stress-free and full of joy. You are truly one of a kind, and we will never forget everything you did for us.

The Boettcher Mansion is a fairytale venue! It is absolutely gorgeous inside, but the outdoor space is what really sold us. When my husband and I got married in June the flowers were in full bloom, and we were surrounded by butterflies. The mansion is in a pine forest and has fantastic mountain views (the lookout in the photo is just across the street). We really wanted our wedding to feel like a mountain, wildflower fantasy and Boettcher was perfect! All the staff at Boettcher are amazing! We primarily worked with Dana and Shea, who were both incredibly well organized and helpful throughout the planning process. Overall, Boettcher was our dream venue, and I would highly recommend it!

For starters, Nicole was absolutely fabulous to work with! She never once told me “no sorry” and instead always offered alternative solutions. She was nothing short of amazing the day of the wedding & every one of the 11 months in between. As someone from out of state, she really put my mind at ease and offered solutions to all of my “potential problems.” All of the staff was friendly & accommodating to us. 10/10 wish we could repeat the day over and over.
