Your wedding invita on sets the tone for your big day. You want to make sure you include all of the basics, but also remember it should reflect you and your fian-cé. On the invite, be sure to in-clude the hosts’ names (typically the parents of the bride), both the bride and groom’s full names, and of course the date, me, and loca on of your wedding. Inside the envelope, be sure to have a response card that includes a space for your guests to write in how many people will or will not a end and what their meal choic-es are if you are offering a split

entrée. You may also include a recep on card if it is at a different loca on than your ceremony site. Finally, be sure to include a re-turn envelope with your address and postage so your guests will be able to send their RSVPs back to you. Ask your guests to re-spond at least 1 month prior to your wedding date to allot you enough me to track down late RSVPs. You can check out the full details on Invita ons here:

Let us host your Sunday brunch! We are offering three inclusive buffet packages star ng at just $32 per person! These packages all come with chilled juices, coffee, tea, cake or assorted desserts, champagne or cider toast, and a full

brunch menu. We have had our couples u lize this menu for many different events. Are you looking for a way to ask your bridal party to be a part of your special day? Invite them to brunch! Instead of hos ng a rehearsal dinner, why not

host a brunch? You can have your rehearsal the weekend prior so no one has to take off work, and eat brunch a er. We have used this menu as an alterna ve to the lunch bridal shower and to host out of town guests the day a er the wedding. If you are interested in a Sunday Brunch, contact us for more details. Don’t forget we also work with other

golf courses in the area that would be happy to host your rehearsal dinner, bridal shower, or a brunch so you don’t have to have all of your events at
