Thank you, Lane family, and cheers to many more years of success… We can’t possibly thank you enough for the perfect wedding and most amazing week.

Thank you so much Lane family!!! This home was a dream come true for our wedding! Everything was perfect! It was so nice to spend the week in such a beautiful home, we truly felt like we were able to escape the real world for a bit.

Thank you so much for letting us use your home for my wedding. Everything was absolutely perfect and your house is beautiful. This was definitely my fairy tale wedding.

Thank you for everything! <3 The Newlyweds Matt and Ashley Beltrondo

Dear Lane Family,

We would like to thank you for opening your beautiful home to us. Our wedding day couldn’t have been more perfect. Your home has breath taking views and our guests were completely blown away. This was the perfect venue and I cannot wait to be able to share pictures with you on Facebook. I would choose this place again if I had to do it all over. – Best sunset view in all OBX-

Love,

August 31

We just had our wedding at the Grande Ritz Palm this past week and I cannot say enough about how amazing it was! We knew we wanted a beach style wedding, but the option to have the wedding at the house you also spend a week vacationing in was the best choice we could have made! We were able to hold a pretty decent size wedding (110 guests attended) and did not feel crowded nor was the space too big that people were too spread out. Stephanie was amazing the whole time we were there and very hands on with the planning leading up to it with the many questions
I had! Our friends and family cannot stop talking about this venue and our wedding, many of them saying this is the best wedding they have been too! It was a memorable experience and I highly recommend this venue to anyone looking!

Love, The Faverery’s

Over a year ago, we discovered this amazing home when researching for a wedding venue. The ability to have family and the wedding party all under one roof was wonderful. Many of our guests are discussing booking this home for their own event. The attention to detail & the cleanliness of the home was spot on. Thank you for a week of wonderful memories.

Thank you for providing your gorgeous home for our wedding week. Despite feeling the winds from Hurricane Irma, the wedding and days to follow were filled with relaxing by the pool, trips to Corolla’s 4×4 beach, movies in the theater room and family dinners around the kitchen. Thank you for your attention to details and answering our many questions. We will always remember this week when our two families spent this time together. Our children had the time of their lives here in the “game room” ad in the pool. They will have many stories to tell of their adventures here.

Thank you again for everything,

The home is beautiful and despite it raining  on our actual wedding day, we were able to move everyone inside and have a beautiful ceremony. All our guests raved about how they thought it was planned that way. The Lane’s wished us well and greeted us personally, which was amazing that they cared about us! The home makes you feel like royalty and that put the icing on the cake. We truly enjoyed this memorable experience and despite a few hiccups along the way, it will be far be the best vacation yet!

Dear Stephanie,

I am writing to let you know how truly pleased we were with our stay at The Grand Ritz Palm for our daughters wedding.
Your home provided us with just what we were hoping for….elegant, but yet warm and relaxed atmosphere for both the wedding and the vacation!!
Thank you so much for allowing us to share your beautiful home (I should say “resort”)!

Sincerely,

Toni Kremer

Miguel & Lane Family,
Thank you all so much for opening up your home for us for our dream wedding. It was the perfect venue. More than half of the 110 attendees were locals and more than anyone knows how special what you have created is. Miguel, a special thank you to you. Your passion and positivity were uplifting. I woke the morning of my wedding with pink eye of all things. Miguel, a pastor, prayed over my eye and everything came off without a hitch. Thanks Again!

We truly enjoyed our stay here at the Grande Ritz Palm. We created many memories that will last a lifetime.
We all had a great time at our beautiful daughter’s wedding. Good time spending with family.
Our wedding was still the most memorable ever even though we had to dodge the rain a number of times. “One Love” steel drum band must have ran back and forth to the beach around 4 times – they were awesome! A great party week with family and friends.

The Grande Ritz Palm has been nothing short of spectacular. What an amazing venue, this place brings you to another world when you come in.
