“On June 30, we had the privilege to hold our wedding reception at your venue. Nearly one month later, we, along with many of our guests, are still talking about the quality of service and the excellent hospitality that was rendered during our time at Village by the Sea. We truly appreciate all of the hard work that each of you put in on the day of our reception and in the weeks and months that led up to it. If future couples ever ask for a reference, we would be happy to speak with them.”
