From the reviews
My husband and I were married here October of this year and it was the most magical day of our lives. The staff went above and beyond to help make all our dreams come to fruition. Jason was accommodating and responsive from the start.
I got married there last year. It's a beautiful venue, with polite staff to make your plans go off without a hitch. There are plenty of pricing plans to choose from to help fit your budget. Check this place out! The only downside I can see about this place is that it will leave an indelible spot on your memory.
We had our wedding here in June and absolutely loved it. The stained glass and historic look of the building was perfect, and all the available spaces (outdoor courtyard, kitchen on-site, groom's and brides rooms, etc) gave us plenty of space for our day.
Can't wait to have my wedding there next year. ❤ Update: Had our wedding last night and everything and all the staff were absolutely amazing! Thank you guys for making our special day magical!
Getting married at Dresden Castle | Historic Events Center
Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see the ceremony spot at the exact time of day you'd say your vows — a west-facing beach glows at sunset but bakes at noon, and you'll want to feel the wind, watch where the sun sits, and walk the path your guests take across the sand. Second, bring your real questions: the weather backup (where does the ceremony move if it rains or the wind kicks up?), who pulls the beach permit, the sound-ordinance curfew, the catering and bar policy, and exactly what's included — chairs, setup, and teardown on sand are where quotes quietly diverge. Peak beach dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
