"From the moment we walked into Forrestal's we felt it was the perfect fit for our wedding day!
Very romantic and personal, and just our style!
 
The level of service was excellent. So was the food and bar service and selection.
 
Our guests commented over and over again about what a great place we chose.
Perfect setting, including butlered appetizers!
 
Todd and I felt very lucky to have found such a great place with excellent people to work with. We were very impressed with Debi's undying willingness to help with planning, lend advice, and really take the time and goes the extra mile to make your day as organized and as special as it can be! We did not need to hire a wedding planner because Debi took the initiative and outlined our day with us. She even called all our vendors to work out last minute details. Lifting the last minute burden off of us was a huge relief!
 
Our day was everything we had hoped it would be...and more!"

"Debi...We were referred to you from a friend who had attended a wedding there. It was the atmosphere that drew us, but your pleasent, charming, efficient and expert organized approach was icing on the cake! We would recommend (and have) others for planning their special events. Our guests were WOWED!

Many of our guests were taken aback by the beautiful setting and said the venue was just perfect for our wedding-we had such fun!

Jim...Our wedding photos are wonderful. You did a great job, but we knew you would. We've admired your work for years. Thank you for all your efforts!"

"We loved the intimate atmosphere of Forrestal's and our guests did as well. We also received comments that downtown Middleton was very charming, and great to have a nice hotel selection nearby. We definetly received a good value for our dollar. Plus, Debi was a real dream to work with. She was very warm and made the whole reception planning process pleasant! Our reception was gorgeous and the whole night went extremely smoothly. We just concentrated on having a good time because we knew there was nothing to worry about!"

   "Debi and Jim- I'm sure that you have heard this time and again with how many weddings you do in a year, but I don't think we could have picked a better place to have our wedding reception. The way everything was set-up allows those who want to dance and party do just that, while at the same time providing a quieter place for those who just want to talk or catch up. I know that we couldn't have gotten better service anywhere else...from setting everything up, helping clean up, and even having your coordinator at the reception to keep everything moving and keeping me sane! Every guest told us how much they loved it! Thank you SO MUCH for your help over the past 2 years and being accomodating about Josh's deployment. It's no wonder you guys have a thriving business!
 
Thanks again!"

"Debi- Before our wedding day I had read all the compliments on your website, praying we would experience the same with your staff and location. Little did I realize that words didn't do justice to our overwhelming gratitude for your HUGE role in our special day.
Stereotypically, most wedding day jitters occur in the foremath, while the actual day of the ceremony is the day to relax and enjoy family and friends, yourself and partner. Because of our decision to rent Forrestal's, we did not have the nervousness of worrying about the little details. Debi, you and your staff were so wonderful, thank you barely starts to say how Colin and I feel/felt. Because of your services our wedding was "the best of seven weddings" Colin's best man stood up for that summer. Because of your services we STILL receive compliments about the wonderful time people had (almost a year later!). Because of your services my wedding pictures and memories are not just hidden away, but recalled every day.
You have done a wonderful service by opening your warm ideas and heart to all of us brides and grooms, allowing us to have our special days be exactly as we imagined growing up. So Debi, thank you, thank you, thank you.
For the kindness.
For the service."

"The romantic and quaint atmosphere of Forrestal's was exactly what we were looking for! The planning and help from Debi is a close second, as she was wonderful! Considering that other places charge the same for a plain boring room, we feel we didn't spend as much as we thought! The attention to details by both Debi and Kerry was impeccable and really allowed us to enjoy the day!"

"We found you in the Wedding Planner and Guide and everything was excellent. I liked having easy access to the outside, courtyard, and the intimate feeling of the rooms. I really wanted to avoid the banquet hall like atmosphere and your place was perfect!
Nearly every one of my guests commented on how much they liked the setting and they just raved about the food. Debi contacted the band, florist, caterer, and the bakery ahead of time to arrange the logistics for the evening. I dropped off a few items over a couple of days in advance. Everything was set up so that all we had to do was walk in, relax and enjoy ourselves. It was really wonderful not to have to worry about any last minute items on the day of our wedding. I also appreciated how readily the space lent itself to our tastes. When we walked in it looked just how I wanted it to look, simple yet elegant, warm and inviting. I felt like my guests were welcomed just as they would be if I would have had them all in my own home. It felt like "our place" for the night!"

"What most impressed us was the planning Debi did for our wedding day. We thought that was amazing, because it is included for the price we paid for the entire evening! We had many compliments on how romantic your place is. Everyone raved about the food! We couldn't be happier about selecting Forrestal's for our reception site. The setting is so intimate, romantic and comfortable. Your recent upgrades to the main dining area look great and we loved the layout of everything for the reception. Kerry was great at helping make everything come together and you were amazing at getting everything coordinated with our vendors. Our guests had a wonderful time, as did we! Thank you so much for all of your help, patience, and work. We greatly appreciate your help in making our day so special. We will highly recommend Forrestal's to our friends and co-workers. Thank you!"

"Debi- Thank you so much for all of your help with the planning and preparations for the wedding! That made everything SO much easier for us. Your staff was wonderful on our wedding day as well. Kerry did an awesome job, and things ran beautifully! We had an amazing wedding and couldn't have done it without you and your staff. We will highly recommend you to anyone getting married. We felt we got a great deal considering that other places charge the same for a plain, boring room."
