We received several outstanding comments—"the food was great"..."we did not know this place was out here-what a beautiful location"..."the scenary is great next to the lake"—just to name a few. Everyone had a GREAT time!

You have really put together the perfect package for a fantastic wedding and at a wonderful cost compared to other locations we looked at.
The personal attention to every detail along with great communication between Paradise Cove and the vendors made it possible for our family to relax and enjoy the entire event. I highly recommend Paradise Cove to all future brides. Thanks again to you and your staff for all you did.

We are so happy with the way the entire day turned out on Sunday. You were very accommodating when we spent the day decorating, dressing and socializing. The wedding went off perfectly (I will send a few pictures), and the reception was amazing. So many people commented to me how the reception was stunning yet relaxed. Tom, our minister said of all the weddings he has officiated at or been to, he loved this atmosphere best! You questioned us, found us for special times and cleaned up after us with ease. We felt special and taken care of. Thank You so much.
- Pat and Don Tank

Thank you so much for making my wedding day so amazing and relaxed! I had no idea things were going to be that easy but you guys took care of everything and did an amazing job! The two big compliments I got on our wedding day about Paradise Cove were (1) how amazingly beautiful the place was and (2) what a great job the staff did. Even my husband was impressed with how organized and smoothly everything went. Thanks so much to everyone for all of your help – I can’t even tell you how much I appreciate it.

I helped Margie Salame sell tickets to the Fish Fry. I had never been to Paradise Cove until last Wednesday at the dinner for Austin Ramirez, but I was very impressed with your facility and your staff. I was helping take money at the door, and I worried about running out of food as people without tickets came flooding in! You did an amazing job and I just wanted to thank you for your generosity in hosting the event. It would not have been possible without you. Thank you so very much!

I am Theresa's Aunt Mary. Tina, I met you in the bride's room. I wanted to let you know that the preparations for the wedding and the reception where wonderful. Everything was great !!! You and your staff did a wonderful job at taking care of all the guests and their needs. Everyone always had a smile on their face. The room(s) looked great and the food was out of this world. Of course we all enjoyed the chocolate fountain; though the nieces and nephews enjoyed it the most I think (some of them had it from head to toe). I know Theresa and Noah had a blast. I'm sure they will have many memories for a very long time of their night at Paradise Cove. Thank you again for taking such great care of me and my family.

I wanted to take this time to thank you again for all that you and your staff did to ensure that my wedding day was a dream come true, and it was! I really appreciate all your efforts throughout the entire day. From the moment that we walked in the door you and all of your staff was so helpful and caring. Thank you so much for the fruit tray, water and champagne that we enjoyed while getting ready in the bridal suite. I had a truly memorable time with my mom and my bridesmaids that day; it is something that I’ll never forget!
I don’t even know how to thank you enough for all your help with the wedding cake disaster of that day! Your professionalism and compassion will never be forgotten. My cake being late, and the dropped was truly traumatic for me. I was crushed because it had been something that I put a lot of time and creativity into and was quite proud of it. I also couldn’t wait to see the final product. When the disaster occurred though, you and your staff were able to pull through for us and have the chocolate fountain and another wedding cake ready for us. I am not sure what kind of strings you had to pull to get a cake made that quickly, but you weren’t concerned and you just went on like it was no big deal and there was other answer. Your calm efforts with that amazed me, because I’m certain it wasn’t easy!
I will never forget my wedding day as long as I live, and I will never forget the wonderful staff that was there to help pull it all together and make all of my dreams come true. I’ve sat back and thought about how things might have been had we been at another venue, and each time it ends in disaster, but not at Paradise Cove. I will always recommend your establishment to everyone I know. You guys really do make dream come true!

How do we begin? When we first heard about Paradise Cove we thought it was too good to be true. We met with you and we thought you were too good to be true. You have made this entire process so easy and enjoyable, and you were even able to handle my anxious mother when she wanted to clean everything six hours before the wedding ;) We can't even count the number of people who said to me "Your coordinator is really great!" And we have to agree. You are a very special person with a brilliant staff. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect day or a more perfect location.

Thank you for everything! Our wedding was absolutely beautiful, I would recommend Paradise Cove to any couple looking for place to get married... it was perfect.

My wedding ceremony and reception is just THREE days away now. I made the wonderful decision to book with Paradise Cove and I've never for a split second regretted that. Paradise Cove offered something that I just couldn't find anywhere else... a gorgeous indoor facility alongside an amazing outdoor gazebo with gorgeous scenery (the lake and trees). The friendly people at Paradise Cove have done so much more for me than I ever imagined. They are completely thorough and leave no detail left unturned. They decorate, they coordinate music, they set up and clean up, they cater, they keep a timeline, they run the rehearsal... their services are so wide reaching. I love the fact we can have a bartender without paying outrageous liquor prices, we just bring our own!
I love not having to rent out place settings or silverware or linens. I love the separate and unique areas of the facility: the outdoor gazebo, the patio, the bar area and the reception dining hall. And the chef has always gone out of her way to speak with us every time we've been there and personally helped us arrange our menu so that it fit exactly what we wanted. Of course the food is spectacular, we got to enjoy sampling it all in a Tasting event.
I honestly can't think of one thing Paradise Cove hasn't offered to help me with. They are truly amazing and the value is extraordinary. I'm one very satisfied customer! If you're considering Paradise Cove for your special occasion, I'd say you're making a wise decision!!

Thanks for helping us plan Brandee and Shelby's wedding. I can’t believe were so close already. It's scary but exciting but I'm not ready to lose my little girl! You have become a friend Tina, and that is what has made everything so special.

Thank you all for the time, efforts, and all of the planning you did to make my wedding special, wonderful, and the happiest of occasions. Everyone at the wedding absolutely loved the location, the food, and the entire event. You all did a fabulous job under very stressful conditions.
Tina, while we missed you, I have to brag about your colleagues. I was in the best of hands and never doubted it for a minute! Kristen, thank you for attending to every detail and putting up with my crazy friends and family. You did a great job! Kerby, thank you for checking on me, supporting me, and for your help with the photographer issue! You are awesome! Yvonne, you kept me cool and calm and probably attended to all the other details so well I did not even realize how beautifully things were getting done. You are a terrific lady! Natalie- you made everything so beautiful and I really love your way with people. You are gifted when it comes to giving and making beauty happen!
I wish I could get married to my husband all over again, just to spend time with you all and enjoy the incredible work you all do so well!
My sincerest thanks to you all. Thank you for all of the little extras you sent. You really did not have to do that, but I appreciate it! I know it was your hard work, attention to detail, and great managerial skills that made your colleagues shine on Saturday. Thank you from the bottom of my heart! Many Many Thanks! I am and was a very happy bride.

I just wanted to email a note to you telling you how great everything was Saturday. The decorations were just beautiful. You, Kirby and your entire staff were extremely helpful and courteous at all times. Everything went very smooth. You all just did everything for us; taking the stress of the evening off of us so we could visit with our guests, and I appreciate that very much. We have gotten so many compliments on the whole wedding. The food was fantastic. Everyone loved the chocolate fountain (and not just the kids). We will recommend you to everyone we know. Again, thank you so much for everything that you did for us.

I wanted to let you know that people are still talking about how wonderful the wedding was and how wonderful of a job your crew did! Thank you again...I can't thank you enough. You have helped create some everlasting perfect memories for me and our family and friends. They said it was one of the best, NO, the BEST wedding they had been to and that they plan to have all of their daughter's weddings there. Y'all were fantastic.

Paradise Cove is truly the most perfect place for a wedding and reception. April 5th became not only memorable because of our marriage, but because how perfectly the day became. The location of Paradise Cove is one of the most beautiful sites in Texas. The facilities were great. The gazebo was perfect. The reception area was cozy without being crowded. The outdoor deck was the place to meet when we threw the wedding bouquet and garter. The view from the windows was awe inspiring especially at sunset. Your staff is beyond belief. . . We highly recommend you to anyone who is interested in the best place to handle ALL aspects of their wedding and reception.
