TESTIMONIALS - Aldie Mansion

If you are considering Aldie Mansion for an important special event, just do it! We recently had our wedding at Aldie, and from start to finish, the planning was handled professionally, efficiently, and with careful attention to our preferences. With so many "wedding factories"
out there cranking out cookie-cutter parties, the difference with Aldie is that Kim and Shelly are able to combine a proven recipe of what they know has worked over the years with an openness to be able to create something that reflects the unique qualities of each couple.

We only had about three months to plan the wedding, and of course we wanted to stay within a reasonable budget. Aldie turned out to be the true one-stop-shop we were looking for and that made it a great value for what we spent. We didn't have time to shop around and deliberate over every detail, vendor, etc so we stuck with Aldie's "short list"
of preferred professionals, and we were completely satisfied with the results. And let's not forget the food! Jeffrey Miller created a menu for us that was sophisticated enough to satisfy our "foodiness" with appetizers and entree choices that were accessible enough for all our guests. The cake was also amazing and simply beautiful.

Aldie is an unconventional setting that is beautiful enough to stand on its own without the need for lots of fussy decorations. We had our ceremony outside in the fall under the big tree with the guests' chairs facing the mansion at my husband's suggestion. Our guests had views of spectacular fall foliage as well as the back side of the mansion during our ceremony.

Personally, I didn't really want a wedding, but my husband convinced me that we should do it. I am so glad we did, because it really was the happiest day of my life. Thanks to Aldie, I could just relax, enjoy, and we didn't have to sweat the small stuff because Kim handled every detail with ease. Don't look any further--no one has everything that Aldie can offer.
