When my husband and I decided to get married here at Willows Bend, we were blown away by the gorgeous landscape, and well thought through layout of the building. We had some unexpected life situations come up and had to push our wedding back a year. Jim and Michelle were very understanding, outlined their expectations for us to move the date, and helped us get things moved around. Then, my family experienced a tragedy 7 months before our wedding when my brother was hit by a pickup truck that drove through the building he was sitting in. He did not survive. When I communicated this tragedy to Michelle, she immediately offered to push the date out again, even though they typically only allow moving the date once, since this was such an unexpected and unique situation. I thanked her, but we opted to keep our date, October 31, 2025. My family is from Mexico on my father's side, and we had decided 2 years ago to have a Day of Dead themed wedding. In the Mexican culture, Day of the Dead is when our loved ones who have passed are able to come back and visit the living. It felt like my brother was still invited to my wedding. Leslie, our day of coordinator, worked very hard to make sure our day went as smoothly and perfectly as it possibly could have. Aaron was absolutely incredible as the DJ/MC for our wedding. Jim and Michelle were wonderful to work with, and Colton and I would both highly recommend Willows Bend for anyone looking for a beautiful place to get married.
