Fonda & Mark | A Fairytale Equestrian Wedding

From the moment I met Fonda & Mark when they came for a tour until their wedding day, we had exactly 46 days to plan their equestrian wedding for the holidays! They held their ceremony in our Ballroom and their reception in our Barn, so we had two rooms to decorate. With all of our Christmas décor and centerpieces along with their personal touches, both rooms were beautiful and festive.

After the ceremony, their guests held flashlights and lit a path to the barn, where Fonda & Mark rode on horseback. My favorite part of working with Fonda & Mark was that when they looked at each other, it was with love and adoration that you could not only see, but feel. Thank you both for letting me be part of your most beautiful fairytale equestrian wedding!

Congratulations,

Chris and the Moffitt Oaks Team

Beautiful venue to get married at. Wish they still had ropings there. Would be an AWESOME bachelor party!

Our wedding was on 9/30/17. Where do I start? I found Moffitt Oaks on Facebook and immediately fell in love with the venue. I booked a tour with them and was super nervous that it wasn’t going to look like what I had imagined since I was just going off of Facebook photos. Turned out…it was way more than I imagined. It literally brought tears to my eyes as to how beautiful this place is. We immediately booked our wedding there. I didn’t even look at any other venues, because I just knew this was the one. The ceremony took place in their ballroom and the reception was in their barn. We had about 250 guests and everyone fit comfortably in both venues. Moffitt Oaks is an all-inclusive venue which makes wedding planning SO much easier. They also provide you your own wedding planner, which I definitely have to mention Ms. Chris Krauss! We connected with her the second we met. She went above and beyond with making our wedding day unforgettable. Throughout the whole year of planning she was there whenever we needed her, answered all of our questions, and made everything less stressful. By the wedding day she was more of a friend than anything. She even approved us to have a tattoo artist at the wedding to tattoo our guests as a wedding favor. She’s that awesome! We are going to miss her a lot! We were also very honored and lucky to have met Mr. & Mrs. Moffitt themselves during our rehearsal the evening before the wedding. They are the most generous and kind people! I even saw Mrs. Moffitt checking on the ceremony set up the day of the wedding which made me smile, because it showed how much she cares. Lastly, all us ladies spent the night before the wedding at the Moffitt Mansion and had a blast! We stayed up until about 1-2am hanging out in the pool/jacuzzi, doing face masks, drinking wine, and chatting. The next morning my mom and I drank coffee on the back patio and watched as they started setting up the venues for the big day. Definitely a moment I’ll cherish forever. Then they served us breakfast, mimosas, chocolate covered strawberries, and later on a cheese tray while we were all doing make up. I really could just go on and on about Moffitt Oaks. I highly recommend having your wedding here. You will definitely not be disappointed. Thank you Moffitt Oaks and Ms. Chris Krauss for giving me the wedding of my dreams!

The venue is gorgeous!!! We got so many compliments on everything!! We chose to get married Lakeside and have the Barn reception. Our wedding coordinator Chris Krauss was a pleasure to work with!! She stayed on top of everything and kept me stress free through this whole process! We did the silver package which came with a DJ from JPL entertainment who was AWESOME!! We had so many people tell us this was the most fun wedding they have been too! We chose Cafe Natalie for our caterer through them and it was delicious and the staff was on top of everything! HIGHLY recommend Moffitt Oaks!!

We cannot even begin to express the depth of our gratitude to our wedding coordinator Kimberli Bowman-Bishop and to her team. On the numerous times we've been asked if we remember anything from our wedding day April 14th, the answer has always been that we remember every moment. We did not worry about one thing and we're truly able to be a guest at our own wedding. We have received so many compliments about the beauty, amazing flow, and organization of our wedding. Kimberli and her team helped to arrange and run things as we would have ourselves. Kimberli and her team are phenomenal and we are so, so blessed to have had her on our wedding day. I would only recommend Moffitt Oaks for your wedding venue. The place is absolutely breathtaking and their customer service, professionalism, and creativity is amazing. They provided us with SO much support and they will do the same for you!

I knew my boyfriend had the ring, because I picked it out with him ;) I started to research venues even before he proposed  My cousin and I went to Moffitt Oaks for a tour. The moment I drove onto the property I knew it was the venue for me! Moffitt Oaks is gorgeous! There are so many areas you can get married at and have your reception. I fell in love with the barn! That day, I booked my wedding and called my boyfriend to let him know that he had a year to propose lol! I didn’t care about the cost (which was average by the way!), because I knew that I would have no regrets looking back. We planned to have our wedding and reception in the barn! Our wedding was the best day in my life! My wedding coordinator Chris Krauss did such an outstanding job! She took care of everything for me. The Holiday Inn double booked the conference room that I was going to have my rehearsal dinner in. The Holiday Inn reserved a conference room at another hotel and told us that a shuttle would transfer all the guests. The shuttle driver went home for the night 45min early and left a lot of us at the other hotel. I called Chris to let her know what was going on and that I didn’t know what to do. Chris offered to come over there and drive my whole party from one hotel to another! She would drop everything to make sure that I was taken care of and stress free. She does so much work behind the scenes to make your day perfect. I literally had nothing to worry about the day of my wedding. Chris made sure that everyone knew their responsibilities and when and where to be. I just sat back and relaxed while I had my hair and makeup done! She called all the vendors for me to double check everything a couple weeks before the wedding. I am so thankful I had Chris as my wedding coordinator. All my guests talked about how beautiful the venue was and that they all had such a great time! There are so many things that I would have not thought about for my wedding, but thankfully I had Chris and she went through it all with me! I would have been a mess without her! Thank you, Chris, and Moffitt Oaks for giving us a gorgeous wedding to celebrate the best day of our lives!
