ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Brock is joined by Alyssa Traxon (Director of Marketing & Rentals) and Sarah Bridges (Rental Manager) with the Peel Compton Foundation to talk Bentonville’s most iconic wedding venues: Compton Gardens & Arboretum and Peel Mansion & Gardens.
We cover what couples actually want to know:
- The Compton Gardens renovation + what makes it special
- Capacity, vibe, and best fit: Compton Gardens (up to ~120) vs Peel Mansion (lower price point + indoor/outdoor options)
- Open catering policy + alcohol/bartending rules (beer/wine vs liquor)
- Best photo spots + “golden hour” recommendations
- Common planning mistakes that create wedding-day stress (and how to avoid them)
- A wild “tornado wedding” story + how the team pulled off a Plan B
- Rapid-fire wedding opinions: first look, kids invited, garter toss (cringe?), DJ vs band, charcuterie vs passed apps, and more
