We toured the Elk's lodge and my now Husband was set on having our wedding here, he liked how it looked the feel of it just everything, we also were looking to have a ceremony and reception at the same place and the Elk's Lodge allowed that to happen if you rented the whole building. You just have to pay an extra $100 for them to set-up for the reception, the ceremony set-up was included in the price. So that day we signed it after we toured the building with Dave. Cindy was the one I started to communicate with and she was out of town so she arranged for us to meet with Dave. From here on out I emailed with Cindy, if I had a question and I emailed her she was so quick to respond which was so very nice. The Elk's Lodge is volunteers, We were told right away that we would be able to get in the Thursday before our wedding to set-up after 430. So then it was set-up for rehearsal on Friday. Well time got closer and Cindy told me to come in on Thursday and that someone would be there, I should come to decorate and make sure all my music worked. We go there on that Thursday and the chairs were all in a stack we met the guy who was there to help and we ended up setting up all the chair ourselves which I thought was included in our price; this was the 1st time that I was upset about our venue I then felt that if we had to set-up the chairs then we shouldn't be charged the other $100. They ordered us the wrong beer, weren't clear on the price to use the table cloths. Matt was great and helpful; but I think they need to find 1 person to communicate with not multiple
