            Just a note to thank you and your staff for a wonderful wedding this weekend at Alta Vista…There is probably no such thing as a perfect wedding but this wedding was about as perfect as you can get.

            There are too many people involved to thank but I wanted to recognize… Amanda.  She…took care of all of our questions and coordinated every detail to perfection…During the wedding preparation meetings we had with Amanda she gave us all of the time we needed for questions and never rushed us.  This helped calm our nerves a great deal and make the wedding a very special evening …

            All of the people [at Alta Vista] are A+ in my book… You have a great staff.
