I had my wedding here and there are pros and cons, which I will list separately. PROS: Everyone is very nice, including the servers the day of. They are attentive to your needs the day of. Reply to emails and phone calls in a timely manner. The location is very nice and always smells nice inside. Good decoration inside, so you do not have bring much. Nice lighting, and the lighting tech is great. Very nice tableware, chairs, etc. Good bathroom locations. Baker is nice and the cake was very good (especially with the sugar flowers they made for me). CONS: They will charge you for parking ($5 a car) whether guests park themselves or not. This was not written in the contract it was a "verbal" condition. BTW there are only 22 parking spaces. If ANYTHING goes wrong during the event, you and/or your guests will be blamed for it... but in a nice "bless your heart" kind of way. The food at the tasting is better than what will be served the day of. The fried oreos will NOT be served on nice plates like at the tasting. They are served on napkins. Your hired DJ will not be able to control the microphones or the sound. This is done by a tech person. My DJ was not allowed to use their mics, and the sound person NEVER paid attention to the DJs so it was always too loud. The tech would not turn down the music when the DJs would talk either. If you have the DJs or anyone else on the second floor, they will communicate with them via text message and not walkie talkies, which means youll have to ask for them to do things multiple times. If you have an event, lets say, from 7pm to 11pm, expect EVERYTHING to be shut down exactly at 11pm. My guest asked for another song and the tech person shut down my DJs. And while guests were still there, everyone starting tearing everything down and packing things up in boxes. Great way to show my guests that they are "welcome". Also, they will tell you that coffee and cake was served to everyone, but it wont be. If ANYONE is standing, they will not be asked, and the servers will only go around ONCE. Overall, it was okay. For the price though, I expected more.

For the price of the food I expected more. We ordered 3 stations: pasta wich was ok, Mediterranean where the falafel was made with flour and soft paste, worst falafel I ever had and taco fish: well.presented but fishy. Dessert was LED cotton candy: unflavored but with light, waffle lollipops that tasted like oil and smores that cant go wrong as theres no cooking. Parking fee of 5$ was unexpected and finally there was only one waiter picking up the dirty plates for 130 people. Pros: rich lighting, decor and Dj equipment.

OMG, OMG, OMG!!!! Can I tell you that Brett is awesome. My client and I happened to be at the right place at the right time because we also got a chance to taste what the Chefs were cooking up in the kitchen! The venue itself is breathtaking! Their willingness to work with you to make your event special is second to none and your guests are sure to have an experience. I am looking forward to working with them! This is going to be EPIC!!!!

Amazing venue, great location. The only missing star would be for the sound system, it was crazy.

Fairly small inside, but DJ, music and sound system are good.
