The experience from start to finish was simply wonderful. The venue itself was so, so beautiful - the property, the hall, etc. But working with Megan was beyond pleasant. She was knowledgable and positive in every interaction and very patient as questions and inquiries arose! And even as the day approached and other Ritz staff started to enter the picture, they all conducted themselves professionally and bubbly (love!). The day of we couldn't get more unsolicited compliments from our guests at how great the staff was conducting themselves and the food, needless to say, was a hit! While it may have been a bit on the higher end, the blissfully positive experience that we had was absolutely worth it to make the day as great as it was. Highly recommend!
