“ Our wedding was over the top having it at the Fountainview. Gary and Julie opened up there home and made it our home, if you are looking for a special place to have a wedding, have it with Gary and Julie, they will treat your family like royalty and with kindness. We couldn't have asked for anything better, they were always there asking to help on everything we needed with a smile. There manison was our home for the day. I hated to leave and will miss the fountainview family.”

“ We just wanted to thank you both again for such a wonderful and relaxing time at the beautiful Fountainview Mansion. Not only were the accommodations excellent (loved the gift bag), but so were the breakfasts. Our daughter, Sydnee, said it was definitely worth getting up out of a warm bed to come join us. Thank you again for allowing her to do so. We also enjoyed all the little extras you provided, such as the wine and the delicious cake you brought to our room. Your hospitality made us feel so welcome it was hard to leave. We are already trying to plan our next visit.”
“ We will definitely tell all our friends and family about our wonderful experience at the Founainview Mansion.”

It was great to be able to come back to where we started our life together and relive the memories of that day, and we hope to be able to do so often in the future. Thank you for the pictures. They came through great and we can't wait to share them with our family and friends. Thank you and everyone at Fountainview for making us feel so welcome and special. You truly do a wonderful job!”
“This has been such a wonderful few days... You and Julie are such a blessing!!! I am so glad that you are part of the memories that we will have of sending our "baby" off into the world. Ya'll will definitely become part of our family as we continue to stay here throughout our son's stay at Auburn. We covet your prayers during this time in our lives as we will keep you and this wonderful "ministry" you have here at Fountainview in ours. God bless."
"I just wanted to drop you a line, and tell you one more time what a wonder weekend we had. Your home is absolutely wonderful, and you made us feel so comfortable being there. Eddie and I were so relaxed in our accommodations. I have a lot of friends that frequent Auburn; and I have made sure that they will be looking you up, if the occasion arises.
As far as Elena and Ty\'s wedding goes, it was beautiful, and it was the venue that made it so. But I have to say, you the host, were so accommodating in helping the Bahars and Thaxtons pull everything off. Everyone should be so blessed. I hope that Eddie and I can be as lucky when Bryan and Alyssa decide to get married. You know we are BAMA fans, so it won\'t be happening in Auburn. Although it would be tempting just to come back to Fountainview. :-) And of course we would love to come back just for the wonderful breakfasts. Your wife almost outdid you on Sunday.
Once again, thank you for everything. Take care and be blessed."
"I can't thank you enough or helping to make such wonderful memories for our family and guests. "Fairytale Weddding" are the words we continue to hear. And "who was the nice guy in the suit who kept asking if we needed anything?" I have answered that we were just borrowing his house! And so much more: the flowers were "to die for," the linens and tables, exquisite, the weather: nice job! The whole thing from church to the ending with sparklers was magical.
The bride and groom will never forget your hard work and perfect wedding. Thank you!"
