Her dreams and expectations were exceeded in every possible way. My daughter and my son in law got engaged two years ago, they both live in Jacksonville, Florida. Since both families live in Baldwin County, they decided to have their wedding here. When we started looking for a venue, we were having a challenging time looking for the perfect place and a reasonable price. Until one day my co-worker told me she went to a wedding at Waters Edge, I right away went online and checked them. I decided to call and make an appointment. We met with Anita, she showed us around the place, and it was perfect they have a gorgeous establishment, covered pavilion with a fireplace for an outside ceremony and on the walkway to the pavilion there is an iron arbor that can be decorated on the day of the event. The property was big enough that you can choose anywhere on the property to have your ceremony. We then went to the reception area (barn) the place was very accommodating with lots of room and a nice bar. It has a rustic look with lots of old memorabilia. We sat with Anita, and we talked about everything that we needed to know. She was very knowledgeable and experienced with events. We discussed our options as a family, and we decided to go with Waters Edge. As the mother of bride, I had so much on my mind and worried about everything after talking with Anita, she made me feel at ease and assured me that she would help us give our daughter an elegant and very memorable wedding for our princess. We met every month to discuss our progress towards the event. At every meeting we discussed what needed to get done. Anita made recommendations for us to adjust as time progressed, she kept me and my daughter on our toes. She was very pleasant to work with and accommodating to all our needs. Anita and her team were amazing!! Also want to say thank you to the bartender Rebecca, her staff and our Disc Jockey (Anita's husband) for keeping the drinks and music going and accommodating our family and designated friends with special drink requests!! The place was amazing, and I would recommend this place to anyone.

It had the perfect aesthetic for my brand. It gave the light and airy feel I love. They have outdoor area to have a wedding, reception, conference or a bridal shower. The rooms are perfect for a romantic weekend getaway or girls weekend. There are lots of places to shop and eat nearby. The owner Tricia was very nice and showed me around the property. I can't wait to go back but this time I'll make sure to stay longer because I didn't want to leave. I would have given 5 stars but the parking situation was confusing.

The large living area upstairs was perfectly appointed. I felt like I was at home. But better since all of the decorations and amenities during the holidays were so magical and beautiful.

Perfect place to chill and curl up with my favorite book in one of the rocking chairs. I so needed this break from the norm. Can't wait to book Little Point Clear again for our next event.

They were both very personable, friendly and seemed to take a genuine interest in all of the guests. We had breakfast outside in May, the weather was great and the food was delicious. Fairhope is almost like a hidden gem of Alabama. It's a lovely small town and if you are just passing through or planning a trip I highly recommend staying at the Jubilee Suites!

Our son recently married his beautiful bride at this magical location and it was breathtakingly…read morebeautiful! From the wonderful accommodations for the bride and her bridesmaids (large home with complete access to kitchen/sitting areas and bedrooms to accommodate a large wedding party getting hair and makeup), to the open chapel and later to the reception courtyard and inside seating, it was one breath taking site to another! The 3 water fountains and large fire feature in the open courtyard were soothing and the bar and appetizer area was spacious. Dinner and dancing inside the reception dining area was temperature controlled, clean, tastefully painted, and there was plenty of space for the 120+ guests. *One recommendation might be to provide bathroom facilities for the groomsmen: perhaps an upscale porta-potty and maybe even an outdoor shower. The barn hangout was perfect for their gathering before the wedding festivities (complete with couches, pool table and refrigerator). **Another idea would be to provide some sort of seating for grandparents who were waiting to be escorted during the ceremony. It was challenging getting them to the chapel in a timely manner (they waited in their cars until just before the music started). All in all, I highly recommend this place as a consideration for your future wedding!

Though the venue is beautiful, the venue owner, Robin, was extremely difficult to work with from…read morethe start. As the bride, getting the venue booked with Robin was my greatest stressor, and she only caused more stress from there. I first was interested in Bella Sera because of how beautiful it looked on Instagram. I looked up the Google reviews, and they were mostly positive. The few negative ones I saw, I laughed at her "clap backs" and assumed that they were from the occasional unreasonable guest that the service industry sees now and then. I wish I had read Yelp reviews as well, or asked on Facebook groups, because now I know that Robin is completely unpredictable and you have no idea if you'll get the Robin who wants to make your day special, or the Robin who won't respond to your messages and raises her voice at your family. She was terrible at communicating promptly, and often had to be called or texted multiple times for an answer to one question. Vendors were waiting on the information I needed from her, but a quick response time from her was one week. I've attached message screenshots showing the reply gaps. I messaged Robin on April 14th, the day after I got engaged, to confirm that I wanted to book. Because of her delays in communication, she did not send the contract to me until June 2nd. For a month and a half, I texted and called and asked questions, and tried to get a contract, because I wasn't comfortable with being "pencilled in". We were allowed, by contract, two hours the day before to rehearse and set up the reception. Robin scheduled a tour for another bride during our rehearsal. She became agitated when we approached her and asked about venue decorations that she had offered us the use of months before. When we had questions about the set up and availability of the items, she snapped at my family and friends in front of the touring bride and said that we worried too much. While getting ready the morning of the wedding, the bridesmaids, mothers, and I were freezing. We had our hair and makeup done in our coats. I texted Robin and asked for her to turn the heat up, and she never answered me. There was a case over the thermostat. During the post ceremony photos, the photographers would arrange my dress and position a certain way, and Robin would come up and adjust it to her own wishes so she could take pictures on her phone. She also was obtrusive in photos of our dance. In a response to the review my mom posted, she said it was fine that she was in the way because "any professional photographer is highly capable to photoshop a staff member...." I had assumed that in the contract where she said that she would be allowed to photograph for her own advertising purposes, that she would be a background figure and not hamper my own photographers' work. We were on an especially tight schedule post-ceremony because of the sun setting and the photographers had to take extra time to undo the adjustments she unnecessarily made. Robin also responded to my mom's review accusing us of being late with making payments. In fact, she did not send us the final invoice until the night before the wedding, requiring me to pay it while getting ready the morning of my wedding day. I've attached a screenshot of the email sent on 11/10. This venue photographed very well, but the stress that it took to book it, the unavailability of the venue owner, and the shadow she cast over the celebrations were very unfortunate. If I had it to do over again, I would choose another venue where I felt valued and treated like someone who spent thousands of dollars to be there.
