We chose this complex to conduct an on-site wedding registration and celebrate our celebration in August 2015. The wedding was scheduled for Thursday, so we took the risk of not booking the entire territory of the complex, and we were lucky: there was almost no one except us. We rented a tent, one VIP house for newlyweds and a restaurant menu for 32 guests. I'll try to be as honest as possible.
In general, both we and our guests were satisfied. I was impressed by the European approach in everything: starting with the internal structure of the complex and ending with resolving issues with guests. The administrators politely and patiently answered questions, I was pleased with their goodwill and ability to make concessions in some moments, but at the same time not to change the main principles.
We were offered several places for the ceremony to choose from: on the pier, overlooking the pond and overlooking the forest. We stopped at the last one and never regretted it, it turned out really great and unusual for Belarus. The territory is clean, well-groomed.
However, I would like the same grooming in the tent. In general, the tent, of course, was very impressive with its design, as if it was created for weddings. Spacious, light, with pine trees on one side and a pond on the other. But in our photographs, we noticed that the windows protecting from the wind were very dusty, it was especially noticeable in the sun, so it would be better to check this moment and ask to clean them before the event. The same goes for the ceiling. In general - this is for the administration of the complex - it would be better to do this before anyone notices. The second unpleasant moment associated with the tent concerns heating. At the end of August, it was getting colder in the evenings, and we were promised to turn on the burners around the tent, assuring us that there would be no inconvenience with the temperature. As expected, in the evening the temperature dropped to uncomfortable, but the burners were not turned on, explaining that something had broken... As a result, the guests had to wrap themselves in blankets, since they were provided to us in advance. Dancing saved the situation, but not for everyone - the older generation was in no hurry to rush into the dance. Therefore, the administration is requested to check the heating in advance, and guests are advised to pay attention to this before the event. But in general, the tent is wonderful, especially if you take into account that there are no such tents in Belarus. And if you bring garlands with light bulbs and hang them inside, the atmosphere is simply incredible! If you don't like a tent, Shishki also has an indoor restaurant.
The room in the VIP house, like the house itself, I really liked. Around the forest and, in our opinion, away from the city, the amenities are just great. The views are incredibly beautiful, the place is really sincere, as it is positioned in the slogan of the complex, I didn’t want to leave at all... Among the shortcomings of the internal arrangement, perhaps, there was one: the entrance to the complex. In August, dust, pits and potholes rose from the wheels - all this turned these 10 minutes of travel into a nightmare for guests. It doesn't matter, but an unpleasant aftertaste remained. We hope that the road will be paved soon.
The food here is homemade delicious, and at the same time beautifully European. The waiters served the dishes in a timely manner, they were always there to ensure the agreed European serving. I was pleased with the opportunity to feed 6 contractors for free. None of the guests left hungry, but you need to be prepared for the fact that what remains on the tables after the event will not be taken away (thoughts for the administration: for guests from Europe this is natural, but for Russians this is a minus and will never become a plus, because the mentality, which means negative reviews from “ours” on this topic will always be). If you are ready to follow Europe in this matter and close your eyes to some minor flaws, then, in our opinion, this is an excellent place for holding such events.
Minuses:
Dirty glass and ceiling in the tent
Faulty burners
Unpleasant entrance to the complex
You can’t take the leftover food with you (although this is the norm in Europe)
Pros:
European approach
Incredibly beautiful views inside the complex
Adequate courteous staff
Several options for venues for the ceremony
Well-groomed territory
Unique tent design
Pleasant number
Delicious and beautifully presented food
(free for 6 contractors)
