Look at Wednesday...we are expected to get 6 - 10 inches of snow.

Where has the time gone?! It seems like just yesterday we were beginning the 2014 wedding season, yet here we are with only 13 weddings left for the year.

In honor of Throwback Thursday, we wanted to reflect on some of the special moments our couples have shared at West Hills Country Club. Thank you Christine Studios, Chris Carter Photography, Kevin Ferguson, and Joanne Giannetti for capturing these beautiful photos.
