"It was just beyond amazing"
What was your favorite part of working with the Merri-Makers team?
EVERY part was beyond amazing!!! The team at Mallard completely exceeded our expectations on EVERY level! The attention to every detail, the expert advice & guidance leading up to our day, the quick responsiveness when we had questions, recommended amazing vendors that saved us, and really truly the best was the day of!!!! We never expected to each have a personal attendant the WHOLE day & night making sure we had anything and everything we needed! Not only just food, drinks & all that but making sure we were comfortable in our most nervous times, help with making sure we were out ready throughout the shoot, tying up our boat which was a major step above and beyond! Making sure vendors were set up and that the bride and groom party ready on time for everything so seamlessly!! We went into our wedding day expecting some things to go wrong but NOT with this top-notch team! We truly cannot thank Mallards entire staff from the ones we didn’t get to meet behind the scenes from food, service to the awesome Gianna, Nicole, Kristie, Brooke, Gillian & Lou-Ann! You TRULY gave us the best day and evening of our lives! We feel so blessed to have picked the most amazing venue & services. You are all forever in our hearts and we hope more brides and grooms make the same life changing decision we did when we booked with Mallard!
What was your favorite food of the night? Which dish were guests raving about?
Everything!!! Our guests raved about the cocktail hour, apps, main course & dessert and late night food and breakfast!!! And we even still talk about the food tasting Merrie-Makers hosted!
What was your favorite photo spot of the venue?
Everywhere! We are obsessed with being on the water and boating so to be able to have a chapel with water views all over, bring our boat, the long pier that juts out, the gorgeous Mallard estate in the background, spectacular gardens all over, groom shack & most breathtaking bridal suite!! And the gorgeous ballroom & estate rooms!! No photo is not to love!
