Portuguese Villa Courtyard and Bar
make your own bouquet were outside. Elizabeth & (self proclaimed) Sherpa Sean were extremely helpful before, during and after the event. Sean manned the mimosa bar which made for one less thing I had to worry about. Thanks to both of you for a wonderful celebration - I would absolutely recommend this...

The Lounge at Haven
out in and they were not. Thankfully there weren’t any issues with broken items. The other thing I would mention is the sound bar would not play sound so we had to change the audio source for the tv. Other than that everything went well...

so perfect. All of our friends and family loved their courtyard. Elizabeth was out of town (sadly) but Sean hosted wonderfully, tending to the bar, making us feel so welcome, and being available whenever we needed anything. I can't recommend their space enough. We will definitely consider this space...
