ver the past two years, I have had the pleasure of working with Sharon Burns on numerous weddings that she has executed at the property. To say that she is one of the best planners in the business is not an understatement. She is a consummate professional who is detail-oriented, timely, organized and has the eye for exceptional design and ability for seamless event execution. Her final product reflects not only a stunning event, but also the guarantee that every detail is executed to perfection. I would highly recommend Sharon Burns to any bride seeking to host an amazing once-in-a-lifetime experience!

Her thoroughness and attention to detail ensure that the bride and groom as well as the guests are always at ease on the big day, allowing them to enjoy the real meaning and significance of the event, rather than getting caught up in the details.
