“My fiance and I did a tour/consultation here with Emily and it was a wonderful experience. Emily was knowledgeable, informative, and easy to talk to. We were a bit nervous as this was the first time we toured a wedding venue and did not want to feel pushed pressured or uncomfortable (like at a car dealership) but it was truly a pleasant experience! Highly recommend meeting with Emily and this venue is gorgeous!”

“I had the pleasure of shooting a wedding at Casa Maria. I've been to many beautiful venues, but this one really stood out to me as one of the best in terms of its gorgeous open space and incredible sunsets.The venue is located on a farm area/town, so you get plenty of room for dancing, tables, chairs, and even a photo booth. The sunsets were absolutely stunning—and there was plenty of natural light for taking photos during the day!The staff was friendly and helpful throughout the planning process. They made sure everything ran smoothly from start to finish. I highly recommend this venue for anyone looking for an outdoor wedding with great lighting and lots of space for guests!”

“Great party venue for holiday gathering. Catering available, with great food. There's a cash bar in a separate room. Lots of food and deco choices including bbq with plenty of parking. Decorations were beautiful with fresh flowers.Stale cigarette smoke greets you at the front door but was not noticable in the main (dining) room.”
