When looking for a venue, my husband and I toured 7 or 8 venues prior to finding The Lofton. I was very particular that the venue we chose had a nice getting ready area for my husband and his guys. Shortly after pulling into The Lofton, we had a very good feeling about it. Just the outside appearance was enough to take your breath away, but once inside the atmosphere was unmatched. After talking with the amazing team and getting a tour of the venue, we booked our wedding date the same night. We booked about a year in advance and utilized every open house we could make it to. This gave us the opportunity to go through the shed full of decor and decide what we wanted to use to create our dream wedding. A month before our wedding we sat down with Amanda and her team and went over every detail of the wedding. We couldn’t have imagined a more perfect or smooth wedding day. During the planning process, the team was available to answer any and every question I had, give advice when asked and be the mediator between us and vendors. I never felt rushed, stressed or like I was just another wedding. They made our wedding everything we wanted and more. I have and will continue to recommend them to everyone. We truthfully could not be more thankful for The Lofton and their team.

My husband and I could not have asked for a more beautiful wedding. We had the most stress free experience any couple could ask for and our families did not have to lift a finger. Shelia and Jeffery were so easy to work with and so organized. They provided us choices for different areas on the property to have the ceremony and reception, menu options, cake options, floral options, decor options, and photographer options to choose from. The only thing we had to provide was hair and make-up and someone to perform the ceremony. As someone who is over whelmed easily and has zero experience planning a wedding, this was a dream situation. They worked hard to understand our vision and make it happen. (We even had fireworks.)
