The hosts were lovely to deal with and shared in our excitement. Jasmine was kind enough to let us visit in advance and ensured the grounds were weeded and trimmed for our special day. We also had flexible check-in/out. There was a perfect spot overlooking the valley where we held our ceremony, and surrounding grounds were a picturesque and romantic backdrop for photos…” - Charles
