The first time I went to Stone Creek Ranch I was in tears 3 minutes into the tour. When I say I didn't know then how beautiful this place could get, I'm not kidding you. We booked for our wedding on September 2nd and decided to go with the whole weekend package with decorator. Best decision we made! Rehearsal dinner was Friday night, and half my bridal party was running pretty late! Normally that would be a stressful setback, but with the choice of being able to stay that night and a very patient coordinator, I didn't feel pinched for time. They finally arrived and we messed up a few times and knocked out practice before feasting in the glorious dining area downstairs. All of my bridal party and out of town guests were able to stay with us since there are SO many rooms and they were so appreciative of not only saving money, but also it made them feel even more involved in our special day. They are made comments about what an experience the weekend was for them, like a mini vacation lol. Girls, getting ready in the bridal sweet.... holy moly!!! First watching all my girls getting ready at the beauty bar, and then sitting there myself. Looking in the mirror with my hair and makeup done the perfect room, seriously!! And those windows overlooking the ball room!! I was able to keep peeking out and seeing things being prepped, and later watching as guests arrived! That sure helped build the anticipation!!! When I arrived and saw the place ready and decorated I was in shock, awe, tears, my dream wedding was coming to fruition and then, standing outside in my gown, those beautiful massive doors being slid open, that first sight of not only all the beautiful decorations, but my friends, family, and my future all looking at me.. I was breathless!!! And then, what a place to dance and party it up afterwards!!! Once again, all the rooms kept my loved safe and sound after the reception, because we all know what those can be like lol. The picture of my husband and I dancing under that emaculate chandelier is something out of a wedding magazine I swear!!! Karry Bass and Sarah Smith are both absolutely incredible at what they do!! I don't know if anyone else would have understood the assignment so well, truly. When they ask what package, absolutely go with the diamond bridal. When they ask about the decoration package, absolutely go with it. If you have a decorator already, ditch them and go with Sarah Smith!!!! Side shout out because Sarah also did my day of coordination and rehearsal dinner and without her there I don't know what we would have done. I mean it's not like I'm out here doing rehearsal dinner once a month lol! (If you need a cake or hair and makeup referral, let me know because Savannah Woelbing (hair and makeup) and Gowen's goodies are about to get an amazing review as well!!) Thank you to both Karry and Sarah from the absolute very bottom of my heart my once in lifetime, dream wedding wouldn't have happened without your help!!
I can't say enough good things about StoneCreek! It's absolutely beautiful (which makes for amazing pictures), but the best thing about it is the people. Karry is so sweet, helpful, and easy to work with. I would definitely recommend this venue and BUY the decorating and clean up packages--they are reasonably priced and SO worth it!
