Take a peek at some of the unsolicited comments we've
received about our outstanding service and attention to detail.

 


Melissa & Glenn,
I wanted to thank you both for doing such a great job for Kristen & Doug's wedding July 2. Since this was my third wedding in two years for one of my children and knowing I was in Texas and Kristen was getting married in North Carolina, I was a little, well OK, a lot nervous about how I was going to help plan her wedding. When she first told me about the Hudson Manor, I thought, wow, that sounds like a great place for a wedding. After she and Doug first went out to meet with you, she called me on her way home to tell me all about it. I knew this was a dream come true! I told her to turn the car around and book her wedding. I was so excited to find some place that would help with the planning, do all the coordinating, had the decorations, catered the food, provided everything that we would need all in one place. Even though Kristen decided on her own DJ and bakery for the cake, I was so relieved to know that I didn't have to figure out how to get everything else to come together.
The venue was so beautiful, everyone commented on how nice the wedding was. The food was great, and it just seems like everything flowed perfectly. When I show pictures of the Hudson Manor, I usually hear "Wow!" I never worried once that things wouldn't get done, you had everything so organized. So with all that said, I want to thank you again for creating such a memorable and wonderful day not only for Kristen and Doug, but for me and our guests!
Thank you!

"Just wanted to say THANK YOU SO MUCH for everything!!!! When Dana walked into the BEAUTIFUL ballroom, she said to me, “Mama, this is what I have always dreamed of and more!” This statement made me the happiest mama in the world!!! And I owe that all to you. You are an AMAZING wedding director/planner! I could not have done any of this without your help, guidance and patience! I will be forever GRATEFUL! The Hudson Manor grounds looked like a painting! So green and so well manicured. Beautiful plants everywhere. We could not have picked a more beautiful venue than THE HUDSON MANOR! Dana and I plan on writing an A+++++ review for your website. Please tell your husband and his staff that the food and service was OUT OF THIS WORLD! Everyone loved it!!! Also, please tell Marie that she did an AWESOME job with all the décor in the ballroom. It was absolutely breathtaking!!!!!

I wish you and your family true happiness. It has been an honor and a pleasure working w/ you. "

Best Regards,

Cathy

       

 


Melissa,

It was a dream come true for Kim and Heath and I am sure will be a truly wonderful memory. We had guests from nine different states and overseas tell us all afternoon and evening how wonderful The Hudson Manor was... You and your staff made us feel that you had invited us into your home and for that I am forever thankful...The decorations, food, tables, outside setting and dressing rooms were first class. All your staff was very attentive to the needs of my guests and those with special needs...You truly went far above what I have seen in my 41 years as a wedding photographer.

Michael and I had a wonderful time at our wedding and reception. I could not have asked for a better experience. Everything from the initial planning to the actual wedding day seemed so smooth, especially with us not living in the Raleigh area. Melissa, you made the wedding day stress disappear! Many of the guests were commenting about the beauty of the Hudson Manor and how perfect it was for a wedding. It truly was perfect! Thank you to everyone that helped make the day so special for us.

Many thanks,
Mandy and Michael

I just want to thank you, as well as all of your staff and vendors, for a wonderful wedding and reception Saturday. The key to true professionals is pulling together perfection from otherwise imperfect circumstances. And you did that so beautifully! The food was wonderful...the smile on Haley and Sean's face said it all.

I wanted to thank you for the fabulous planning, organization and follow through you did for Tommy and Amy's Wedding. It could not have been more perfect. Everyone is talking about what a great time they had, so it was a huge success on ALL levels.

Again thanks for all you did.

I think I can speak for Casey and Justin when I say THANK YOU. The wedding and reception went off without a single glitch! The manor is absolutely beautiful and the grounds and veranda were absolutely gorgeous. And…..the food was fantastic!! (I know of several people at my table that "went back for more".) I personally appreciated the assistance and guidance you gave Casey throughout the planning process. It was invaluable. I would recommend The Hudson Manor for anyone's wedding or special event. Thanks for making Casey's wedding such a memorable event!

Thanks again!

Melissa,
"I wanted to take the time in between planning for summer camps to let you know how much I appreciate all you did to make Matt and I's special day soooo memorable.
I have always dreamt up a classic southern wedding and nothing could have been done to make our day more perfect.
Please let me know if there is anything I can do to spread the word for you!"

Melissa,
I cannot believe it’s almost 2 years since Jay and I have been married, we still look at the video and are totally amazed how much you put into our wedding, the whole décor, the trimmings, everything, it was just truly amazing, and we had such a wonderful day/night, and of course so did our guests, and to this very day, it still gets much discussion!!!. I could not of wished for a more fantastic day, the weather even stayed great for us, and you were absolutely awesome, as I knew you would be, I did not have to stress about anything, didn’t need to, I knew I was in great hands…..so THANK YOU again for making our day very pleasurable.
