We cannot thank Mike, Karen, and Skye enough for making our wedding day a truly unforgettable and blessed experience! Grace River Island Resort is absolutely beautiful. Mike has been the kindest, most responsive, and easy-to-work-with owner throughout the entire process. His attention to detail and genuine care for our big day made everything so smooth and stress-free.
Skye, the venue coordinator, was a true blessing. She went above and beyond throughout the entire day, ensuring that everything was perfect and that we had everything we needed. Her support made all the difference, and we are so thankful for her help.
The venue provided everything we could have possibly needed—from vendor referrals and tables, chairs, and linens, to toiletries, hair dryers, and eating utensils. They even had games, grills, beach towels, bridal and groom suites, and a stunning cross arbor. It was clear that everything was thoughtfully provided to make our day as beautiful and seamless as possible.
Our families can’t stop talking about how beautiful the venue was, and some are already planning to rent the space again for a family reunion! We are so grateful to the Petersons and Skye for making our wedding day not only memorable but also a true blessing. We will cherish and remember this day for the rest of our lives.
Thank you from the bottom of our happy hearts!
With love and gratitude,
Erin & John
