One of a Kind

Our day was absolutely perfect! The team at Destination Grille went above and beyond to make our day extra special. All the extra touches from personalized signage (welcome sign at entrance, bar menu, menu cards), His and Her cocktails and a one on one with the chef for a menu tasting are just a few of the “extras” the team did to make our day a little more memorable. The terrace turned dance floor was the perfect way to spend our reception! We danced the night away as the sun set and captured some of the best photos with our guests. We couldn’t imagine a better space and can’t recommend DG and their team enough!

They were so accommodating

Destination Grille was the best venue in all ways! They were so accommodating, gave ideas and recommendations we really needed, and stayed within out budget. We had so may compliments about the food! It is a beautiful venue for the entire wedding day from the bridal quarters, the ceremony, the reception, and the dance. I would highly recommend having your special day there!
