When we drove in to Spano Lake, we knew. The woods and path suddenly opened up to a fairy tale setting. On our wedding day, the sun shown bright, the trees sparkled with color and the air vibrated magic. Every day in between, the team at Spano Lake was there to help us with the details. And when the unexpected things happened, as they do during weddings, Jackie and Danny were right there with us. Our wedding day was a beautiful start to our wonderful new life together and we were so happy with our choice to start off at the Rosemary!
