I was blessed to marry my best friend at Mimosa Ridge last Saturday 11/6!! We first saw the venue on Facebook when they advertised last Spring for their yearly open house and food tasting. The photos seemed too good to be true, but after seeing it in person, somehow the photos didnt even do it justice! Paige and Bruce were a dream to work with from the day we met them at the open house, to the multiple visits that followed for showing our other family members the venue and deciding on food, cake, flowers, etc. Paige answered any questions we ever had via text, and Bruce continuously ensured

What a pleasure to work with Bruce and Paige! They were beyond helpful throughout the process from planning our first visit to see the venue to the last detail of leaving on our wedding night. I felt at ease knowing I could trust these two. The venue was just gorgeous. The staff was always available but never intrusive. And, oh my goodness, the food was just incredible. I was relaxed and my photos reflect that. My guests were amazed at the entire event.

I called wanting to set up a tour, and was told that they do not host LGBT weddings. I was told they could only do the reception but that nobody would do the ceremony for us.
