I was simply browsing the web looking for a bed and breakfast to spend the night after our wedding ceremony at the courthouse. Second marriage for us both and were planning on a beachside ceremony on our honeymoon. The proprietor offered to do the ceremoney there for about the same price as the courthouse cost. I figured why not, and it would be a nice graden setting instead of the courthouse and we could stay the night there. (We really were intrigued by the heart-shaped jacuzzi tubs for two!) Little did I know how above and beyond they would go to make our simple day very special! We were greeted right away and felt immediately welcome as we signed the guestbook. David sat down with us and went over all aspects of our ceremony and I really appreciated how kind he was and shared himself in talking with us. We then decided on music and where in the garden we would like to have the ceremony (waterfall or gazebo background). So much more than waht I expected!!! We were then shown to our room and my fiance was given a room to change in so he would not see the bride prior to the ceremony. Our room (the Love Nest) was amazing with soft terry robes and plush surroundings. Even homemade cookies with icing that said Congrats with our names. The ceremony was held by the waterfall and the soft music playing in the garden while the sun slowly set was more than either of us were expecting. David (owner) even helped with his wonderful photographic advice and took some of us also. The evening was romance deluxe! We loved the bed which was like sleeping on clouds. The next morning was an incredible breakfast delivered to our room with heart-shaped sticky buns! I was greeted as the new "Mrs." We had a leisurely morning and truly enjoyed ourselves. As we were leaving, a warm congratulatory hug was given by both owners and even an 8X10 photo of the bride and groom. Finding them was a Godsend for our special day. Every need was anticipated and not just met. Pros: romantic, cozy, small, no TV in rooms, truly a "get away" Cons: not far from highway so some noise heard if light sleeper; stayed in main house and not cottage
