The Lofton team was so wonderful! We had a little hiccup before the wedding day with my dad not wanting to a dance, so they arranged it so we can have a private dance. I needed help with all the walking due to a disability and they let us use their golf cart no problem. The venue is so beautiful! Everyone at the wedding couldn't stop talking about how beautiful it was!! The food and cake were so delicious!! We loved our photographer Danielle! She was the sweetest! The photos felt natural and not forced at all! We had a wonderful day thanks to The Lofton!

The Barn at Shady Grove was the perfect place for my wedding. Shannon and Ken worked with us greatly on a date and price that worked for us. The amenities they offered greatly influenced our decision. Ken is an AMAZING DJ. He kept all of our guests entertained while we were taking pictures. Shannon was great at helping us coordinate things the day of. All around, they were the absolute best people to be working with for our wedding day! I can't appreciate them enough! The wedding venue was beautiful, they have so many vendors that they work with that have awesome prices as well. 10/10 recommend.
