My wedding was at Melrose Knitting Mill and planned by Sarah Skrobialowski. Sarah was incredible to work with and paid attention to every small detail. She worked very hard, was extremely organized, and the wedding went perfectly. She took the time to call every vendor and ensure they were prepared. On the wedding day, she had everything prepared exactly as planned. It was clear she took a lot of pride in her work and left no stone unturned. The venue was beautiful and we got many compliments from our guests. It was a great all-around experience. I would highly recommend Sarah and Melrose.

Our wedding was actually yesterday, and we had such an amazing experience I had to write a post already! The staff and venue at the Melrose Knitting Mill were AMAZING! Our guests were raving all night at how beautiful everything was and how much fun they were having. Blake, our wedding coordinator, really was the MVP of the night though. She was on top of every detail and was constantly checking in to see if we (and our families) needed anything. She really made our day so special and we are SOOOO appreciative of her.

Honestly, everything was so perfect on our special day and I know it was because of Blake. She went above and beyond a “day of coordinator” by always being available for any questions, and even attended appointments with me! She has a crazy eye for detail, and really knows timing which allowed our day to run flawlessly. The best part of the entire event was how much fun my parents and grandparents had though! Blake really took care of them by making sure all dietary restrictions were accommodated and a drink was always in their hand! My dad (who is especially hard to please) even said that it was THE BEST wedding and told me how much fun he had. I was blown away. Garrett and I will truly always remember our special day, and really are so appreciative of Blake for all that she did to make it so great.

My husband and I just got married in May 2019 and we had the most beautiful and fairytale-like day. None of it would have been the way it was without the help of our wonderful planner Blake Morrin. She was so incredibly sweet from the start, and I feel like I have made a life long friend. Such an amazing time! Thank you!

My husband and I recently got married at The Melrose and it was absolutely incredible! Both our ceremony and reception took place in this beautiful venue and we were never disappointed. It was perfect. We worked with Blake, our coordinating genius who made sure everything stayed on track throughout the night. She was extremely reliable and ready with solutions to anything that came up amiss. Even before the big day, her down to Earth personality always made me feel relaxed and reminded me that everything would turn out just fine. The food was fantastic too! The mac and cheese, in particular, is to die for—our guests are still telling us how good it was! And of course, the evening couldn’t have been executed so well without the amazing staff. Everyone was very helpful and accommodating with anything that we needed. I truly couldn’t have envisioned a more perfect night! THANK YOU!
