"Covid made things complicated for everyone this year. But you’d never know that at the Betsy, where every single staff member goes above and beyond to provide an astounding level of service. Bertha, Adolfo and Miguel worked seamlessly to help us pivot from our original plans to a new, intimate wedding. We came with a vague idea and they turned our thoughts into the most beautiful wedding I could have asked for. Everyone always mentioned how you won’t eat at your wedding, you’ll be running around at your wedding, et., but none of that happened with the Betsy managing everything. No matter what complication came their way, this is a team of dream makers. I truly cannot recommend this location, and its staff, enough!"
