Shakespeare's was absolutely wonderful. The staff was fantastic and they made our wedding day perfect. We couldn't have found a better place to have our wedding.

My husband and I knew the moment we drove up to Shakespeare's, this was it... the place of our dreams! The minute you drive up you feel you have entered a fairy tale, fantastical and romantic. The castle sits among a picturesque scene: green grassy hills, sunset over the stonewall, water glistening in the moat and playing in the fountain, but most of all a stone balcony to take in all the glory and romance this castle has to offer. The inside of the castle is what you would think: tapestries, knights of armor, paintings, round table dining area with carved benches, medieval decor collected from around the world by the owner, and everything that would make you feel you have entered into a truly authentic castle. We were married on the balcony, a marvelous and magical place to get married. We could look out at our guests and look out at the scenery and sunset while we made our vows. After we headed inside to the Grand Hall where we had our reception. The tapestries, chandeliers, and roomy setting made you feel like you were truly royalty dining and dancing in the most beautifully decorated arena. There really is no need for decorations unless you want them. The food was out of this world and the bar was open for everyone, hidden in a glass windowed corner. Even before our wedding we made every excuse to go up and dine... sampling everything we could to come up with our dinner list. The compliments we had from the guests were how wonderful and exquisite the food was, savory and delectable . The staff were fantastic to work with. But by all means Shakespeare has the best coordinator ever. Angela was phenomenal to work with. Always willing to work with you and make it just what you wanted, stressing how much this was about "us". She made the event 100% about us down to the smallest detail. The staff bent over backwards to make our night special and truly unique. Angela knows what she is doing and makes you feel like there is nothing to worry about; she makes it a stress free, fun filled event worth every penny. Shakepeares made our most memorable and spiritual day, an event that is unlikely to ever be topped by our friends and family. Angela made it a wedding to be jealous of by everyone! We would never have asked for a more perfect beginning to our lives together.... thank you Shakespeares for everthing!!!! We would recommend this hidden treasure to everyone looking for that uniquely monumental event of a lifetime. Love Dave and Danielle Demblowski 9/9/09

Shakespeare's was amazing! Angie and her staff did so well by us. PLanning with them was easy. I pointed at things and said what I wanted and it happened. They put together an amazing cookie table with what we dropped off and did a fabulous job with decorations. It was an absolute joy to work with them and I would recommend them to anyone, especially my closest friends!

loved shakespeares! so beautifully romantic place to have a reception. the staff was fantastic and the food was so delicious. i scored a 4.5 out of 5 on responsiveness only because it was slightly difficult to get in contact at the start of planning but it was during peak wedding season and there were lots of other receptions to take care of. I scored a 4 out of 5 for cost because shakespeares is rather expensive. however it is so worth it. you definately pay for what you get! i heard from many people that my reception was the best they had ever been too. that is the absolute highest compliment that you could receive and i truly believe that shakespeares had a large part in that! thanks guys!

Everyone at the wedding loved the food and the choices at the buffet. The cheese platter as well as the appertizers was a hit as well. The guests were well fed. I never been to another reception that had people buzzing so much about the food. As for the photos, since Shakespeare's is a castle, the surroundings made them special.

The reception was absolutely beautiful and the food was excellent. The only thing myself and my family did not agree with was that at the end of the night we did not get the leftovers. My parents had already paid for all of the food and there was plenty left, but they would not give it to us. Instead the employees probably took it home.

Overall, the location was great, the food was excellent. I was most disappointed with the cut-off of the bar during dinner that truly disappointed my guests and upset me. By the time I could sit down to the table, the bar was closed off and people were coming to me to complain and ask why. It really was not necessary and not disclosed during our contracting discussions prior to the wedding. I also did not appreciate the confusion and indecisiveness at the start of the reception where everyone came to me all at once asking what time we should start, when to enter and what order to begin. Having previously been told that this was exactly what shouldn't happen to the bride at the wedding at Shakespeare's it really threw me off.
