    Would definitely do it all over again!

    We are from New Jersey and were looking for a reasonable destination wedding location. We definitely found what we were for with Luxury Lodging by Laura at The Dream Maker house. It is an amazing location and we saved a ton of money compared to what we would have spent for a single day event here. Having most of our guests staying in the house and others at the hotel just down the street made it perfect for us. They were quick to answer questions and eased our minds about planning a wedding from several states away. We would do it all over again, without hesitation!

    The Dream Maker

    We absolutely loved staying at the Dream Maker and having our wedding here. It was the most perfect experience I could have imagined for a wedding. We were able to have our family in the house with us, and had all of our wedding guests in and out throughout the weekend. There was so much room for everyone and it was perfect. We opted to have the pool heated which ended up being such an amazing feature for us, as many of the guests used it throughout the weekend.

    I had a small fear that there wouldn’t be a space for the girls to get ready, but I was proven completely wrong. We were able to get ready and had no risk of seeing the groom.

    I loved having everything close by, with the ceremony on the beach and a short walk back to the venue/house.

    If you’re thinking of having this type of wedding, the Dream Maker is an amazing spot- and I can only assume that the other Luxury Lodging by Laura homes will be equally as wonderful!
