My husband and I were married at The Winfield Inn in April. The entire experience was relaxing, romantic, and more than I hoped for. From the beginning, Jodi and Tom were wonderful to work with. They were very accommodating and brought a calm energy to the weekend. Jodi has excellent taste and was able to help me through the process. She helped me confirm certain, choices, decide how best to utilize my budget, and is a wealth of resources. Because the property is so beautiful, it needed very little enhancement to make the day special.
They have done an amazing job restoring the property and were able to cater it to my needs and desires. Having the property for the weekend took off a great deal of pressure. With so many venues, the set up and break down time was included in the brief rental period and would have stressed me to no end. At the Winfield Inn, I was able to soak in the moment, spend time relaxing with my friends and family, and was totally at peace when it was time for the ceremony. Waking up there the day of the wedding was one of my favorite parts of the day. Not to mention the FABULOUS breakfast Jodi and Tom served that morning!
Every guest was made to feel at home. Being on the property was a gift and I could not have chosen a better place to bring together our families and friends on the day we committed ourselves to one another. Our friends and family continue to echo our praises of The Winfield Inn and of Jodi and Tom.

"Jodi and Tom,
Thanks so much for dinner the other night. We loved it and are so, so excited about the food and the place and just everything. We know you guys are going to play a big role in making our wedding day special. The food was wonderful. [They came for a 'Tasting' before the wedding]

"Let me start with another thank you for ALL that you two did for us over the past few months. Our wedding weekend at The Winfield Inn was amazing and full of memories that will last us two lifetimes. Everyday since, we've heard from our family and friends about how 'perfect' that night was.This continues to show us that we made the right decision on you from day one, no doubt! Your attention to the little things did not go unnoticed, and your dedication to making The Winfield Inn unforgettable is working! "

Tom, Jodi, and April,
It's 11:23 on the Saturday night after my wedding to Kim. I'm looking at her, asleep and exhausted on the couch. We still aren't packed and the house is a wreck but neither of us has the energy to care right now.
Why? Because we had the best wedding either one of us could have possibly imagined.
Compliments about the facility were unending. Compliments about the food came through full mouths and slightly embarrassed grins. Complaints were few and came from people we love enough to know that complaints are their way of saying they wish they could have come up with something half as good.
I will be completely honest. I begged Kim to let us have a destination wedding with few friends, less family, and little tribulation. In hindsight I see that it's because I didn't have the mental capacity to forsee the overwhelming satisfaction of being surrounded by so many in such a beautiful place with such amazing and diplomatic service. I'm struggling to put words to my sense of wonder at the whole event. Our wedding was one of those weddings you see in movies where nothing goes wrong that isn't funny and all the boring parts are cut out. Except it was two days long and there were no boring parts.
Kim is distraught about one single item in the entire gamut of events and spectacles that became our wedding day. She was so overwhelmed that once she started down the aisle, she let slip from her mind her desire to sign your guestbook and leave you some record of our deep sense of gratitude for the environment and service you provide.
Please, if you can, save us a page in the guestbook so that we can rectify this oversight, either with a post card or a personal visit as soon as we get back from our honeymoon! Rest assured that every possible word-of-mouth or web outlet is going to be flooded with effusive praise as well.
I have to pack. I hope I'll have a chance to talk to you all again soon.
The words "thank you" will never encompass the gratitude we feel for the experience we had a the Winfield Inn, but they'll have to suffice for now.
Thank you, Chad
Jodi, Tom and April,
Thank you all so much for making our wedding perfect. I can't tell you how many
of our guests loved the Winfield and commented on how beautiful it was.
April took the stress out of organizing all the little details and made the day
run smoothly and worry-free. The food was delicious, well set up and nicely
presented and the bartender was great.
I received so many compliments on the wedding and everything involved but all
the credit goes to the three of you.
Thank you again for the entire experience.
Amanda and Justin
April, Tom and Jodi,
You were so very helpful in all the wedding arrangements and we are incredibly grateful to you. You were truly amazing, so gracious, calm and kind… it is like you could do this job in your sleep- everything you did you did with such ease. You were just what we needed as we planned our long distance wedding. Here I was, Mother of Groom, moving back to Austin with my Jon and the bride in N. Carolina-needless to say this absolutely wonderful wedding wouldn't’ have happened without you.
Thank you for all you did –you helped make this a memory of a lifetime for all of us!

Dear April and Jody,
I just wanted to write and thank you for making my wedding day so special. April - I couldn't have done it without you! Your efficiency and calming nature were much appreciated. You were always there for questions and advice served with a smile and
consistently went out of your way. Jodi- the property is amazing and the food was delicious! I wouldn't have had my wedding anywhere else!!! My gratitude can never be fully expressed. Love, Tori Johnson!!!
Dear April and Jody,
I really want to thank you so much for all that you did for us and for helping to make our big day extra special...despite the weather! It was beautiful and for the most part stress free:). I can't wait to see the photos. You were so easy to work with and very patient too! Thanks again for everything. We'll definitely make it a point to book with you guys for anniversary or something special.
Thank you so much for everything your have done for Ben and I. There is no way that we would have gotten through all this planning without you. And there have been so many times that you have gone above and beyond anything that your job required. Nothing that we could say or do would properly express how much you mean to us.
Thanks you with all our love, Ben and Kim
Hi, April,
We're back from Costa Rica, and I just wanted to send you a note to thank
you for everything you did for us on our special day.
We knew The Winfield Inn was the perfect place for us to hold our wedding celebration when we first visited. But, we couldn't imagine just how perfect you were going to make it for us. I felt so relaxed during the day, knowing that you and the interns were taking care of all of the details other brides are stressed about. And I can't tell you how many people have told us ours was the most beautiful, most fun wedding they have ever attended. We have you and the others at The Winfield Inn to thank for that.
If you ever need any assistance - if any brides want to talk with a former Winfield bride - please feel free to pass along my contact info.
Talk soon. Angela
Jodi and Tom,
What a pleasure to work with you and your staff! Hilary and Clay's wedding was lovely -- I know they'll look back on it and smile.
Tom -- you gave new meaning to a "full service venue" -- to the point of actually giving the shirt off your back!
Do know that we'll take every opportunity to recommend the Winfield to anyone who is planning a wedding.
Take care, Martha-Mother of the Bride
