“HANDS DOWN FROM THE MOMENT WE ARRIVED IT BECAME MY FAVORITE VENUE.”
“THIS IS THE PLACE…New venues cannot possibly have the charm and character of older ones - The Raymond is on the historic register and has been redone beautifully!! I can appreciate a venue that is not only classic but also has just the right amount of modern touches. I was able to view The Bird Dog while I was there and this place for the grooms should get national attention.”
-Becky
