The Starting Gate at GreatHorse provided excellent service and facilities to accommodate a sold-out event of several hundred local business people this past week for the ERC5 Chamber of Commerce. A very impressive facility with impressive views, the membership has a great, well managed facility. Many more people are certainly now aware of it after this past weeks event. I certainly enjoyed it!

Still receiving feedback from guests on how amazing the venue was and how courteous, friendly and professional the staff was. There was never a shortage of food and the bars were perfectly placed so that there were never lines. Dinner came out promptly and everyone was served at the same time.

The venue itself is top quality in every possible way – the view, the amenities, the staff – I could go on and on. Very organized, professional and accommodating – just a pleasure to work with. The food is amazing. The chef creates food that is sure to excite anyone’s palate. I would highly recommend The Starting Gate at GreatHorse to everyone!

This rainy weather is reminding me of my wedding at The Starting Gate, and I wanted to share this picture as I thought you may like it! Even though we had a rainy wedding, everything ran perfectly and it was far beyond anything Michael or I could have ever imagined!

Wow, spectacular doesn’t even come close to our experience with your wedding consultant, her team, and your awesome venue. The whole team, throughout the entire planning and event itself, were approachable, accommodating, attentive and just plain wonderful! Everything ran like a fine oiled machine. Even to say everything was perfect would be an understatement.
As for the place itself it is gorgeous with breath taking views regardless of the weather; we happen to have an overcast, slightly rainy day, but it did not dampen the festivities at all. I can’t even begin to tell you the amount of guests who told us how wonderful and beautiful the venue was and that it was one of, if not, the best wedding they have ever attended.
