The team at Asessippi was invaluable! Our day wouldn’t have been the same without them. A beautiful backdrop for the ceremony, the vine chapel gorgeous for photos. The meal was excellent, the requested drinks were perfect. I would highly recommend this venue, the team kept us on track all day and we didn’t have to worry about a thing other than enjoying every moment of our big day! -

We had our wedding there last week and it was beautiful! The communication was amazing! On the day of, I thought we had forgotten certain items, but the wedding team was on top of it making sure items were accounted for before I even went searching! The venue and scenery is breath taking to say the least, and there is attention to detail EVERYWHERE!!! -

We absolutely loved the entire wedding planning process and wedding day with Blue and the team at Asessippi. The attention to detail in the planning process made it super easy to know that the wedding day was going to go perfectly as planned. Although we only ended up having our ceremony here, and not our reception, we would highly reccomend them for anyone looking to have the wedding of their dreams! -

Blue is amazing to work with! We had our ceremony scheduled for August 2020 and due to Covid, had to postpone to next year, she was so accommodating for us and can not wait to tie the knot next year! -

I want to ensure I write a comprehensive review so that I am not taken as just a disgruntled individual. For full disclosure, my fiancee and I were planning on booking at Asessippi (had even paid the deposit), when a number of events led to us cancelling.
I would like to start with the pros: The area is absolutely gorgeous. The valley, vine chapel, and river area was what my fiancee and I were most hoping for for our wedding. It is very breathtaking in both the winter and the summer.
Now that I have addressed all that we have found enjoyable about our experience I would like to list the reasons for a low review:
The staff was poorly organized and non-responsive throughout the first few months. As an example I would list that we asked for her to inquire into drapery for the tent, which she agreed to do (as she had rented the tent for us, and we did not know the dimensions). After over a month without results, we were told to looking into it ourselves, which led to weeks before we could get the tent dimensions.
The conversations were also very persistent on options that would cost more money, and not cognizant of what we wanted. We were pushed to rent out fans and bug zappers for our outdoor wedding (despite saying no), told to expect a $400 fee for the dance floor (which was listed as included in the contract), as well as meeting a number of difficulties in trying to provide liquor ourselves (double charging bar services, adding in security costs, and a 40% corkage fee).
On the topic of cost, the staff took no opportunity to increase price for granted. Gratuity and tax were added to everything including items such as the dance floor, and items from other vendors (tent rental). We were also quoted $175 (plus gratuity and taxes) in costs to have a event permit for the park filled out, which upon research we found was a $50 dollar form that would take minutes to complete.
We had hopes that having one point of contact for rentals would relieve stress, but we found that even talking about planning the wedding was a chore. Safe to say our decision to move on from Asessippi has rekindled our excitement. -

Blue and her team did everything possible to make our day special. Even when it stormed so bad our ceremony sight got washed away last minute! It was a wonderful day and so beautiful! They went above and beyond for us. -

The food was terrific, we asked for pulled pork, coleslaw and potato salad; it was a huge hit with the guests! The venue looked spectacular and we got to go up on the ski lift with our bridal party and that was a memory everlasting! -
[Anonymous] Sent on 08/09/2016Our wedding at Assessippi was beautiful. Blue and her team really work hard to make sure everything is perfect. Our decor for our ceremony was set up perfectly. The top of the hill ceremony site has a breathtaking view and looks fabulous in pictures. The food was delicious, we had lots of guest compliment the meal. Blue is very good at accommodating your budget and is full of wedding ideas and connections. Our only critiques were the very crackly sound system at the ceremony, which affected the quality of our wedding video and the lack of air conditioning at the reception, it just couldn't keep up and made a lot of guests uncomfortable.
