My husband and I only looked at 2 venues. The first one was Pheasant Run and we only looked at another one because we thought we had to just to solidify the fact that loved Pheasant Run immediately. We worked with Debbie Fields and she was great! Very great at communicating with me, extremely responsive, and always friendly. There were plenty of options for the day of regarding food, booze, decorations, etc. What I loved about Pheasant Run was having everything be in one place: ceremony, reception, and overnight accommodations. People showed up, parked, and didn t see their car until the next morning! The fact that we didn t have to deal with transportation or a caterer or rental place was perfect. The week of the wedding, we had our final appointment where I dropped off all of the decorations, guest book, cake topper, escort cards, etc. It was such a load off being able to drop that off and not have to worry! The day came and we used the Arnold Palmer room as my bridal suite. It was a great, large space for me and the girls to get our hair and makeup done. It was also a great location, right off of the elevators, near a bar, and we could see right outside to wear the ceremony was going to be. Debbie was there to get everyone where they needed to be to line up for the wedding. It went so smoothly and having a ceremony outside (lakeside) was GORGEOUS. Warning though: Pheasant Run patrons at the pool will absolutely be guests at your ceremony. People at the pool turned their chairs around and watched. They were quiet though, so no complaints there! The reception turned out great. We didn t get to experience cocktail hour because we were taking pictures, but from what I heard, it was fun! The New Orleans Bourbon Street area was so cute and full of character. The first time I saw the room (New Orleans Ballroom) was when our DJ announced us. I spent the first 5 minutes sitting in my seat just smiling and looking at all of the details. I was so over-the-moon happy. All of the stuff I dropped off earlier in the week was exactly where I wanted it to be. Pheasant Run turned my dream wedding into a reality. Such a seamless process and great execution. I recommend it to anyone and everyone!
