Doyle-Bass Wedding 7/2316 The Millennium Center creates incredible Memories that last a lifetime!!! Choosing to have the Rehearsal Dinner, Wedding, and Reception there was the best decision my daughter ever made! She fell in love with the architecture of the building, which is amazing; but the best part of this place is Greg Carlyle, the owner; Kaitlyn, the event coordinator; and his staff!! They are, without a doubt, the best in the business. We had the rehearsal dinner in the lower level Speak Easy area, and it is beautiful. Such atmosphere. Has wrapped white lighting across the ceiling, brick columns, a bar, small dance floor, sound access and is perfect for a romantic evening event. The wedding was in the Grand Ballroom and it is awesome! The ceiling is hung with crystal chandeliers, and crystal draping with large columns washed in uplighting in your choice of colors or white. The sound system is unbelievable and is available for your DJ or band to use. The cocktail hour was in the huge hall and sitting area adjacent to the bar, which was serviced by properly dressed wait staff and bar tenders.. The reception was also in the Ballroom, which had been converted for dinner and dancing--all in a matter of one hour. There are beautifully adorned tables with gold chargers, centerpieces, candle light, bow tie napkins, --anything you ask for-; along with all the specialty tables--candy buffet, guest registry, gift table, bridal portrait, cake table, photo booth & props. Everything was perfect ! The DJ was center stage, with the couples Logo on the dance floor. Now for the Food! I will tell you we heard raves all night about the food. Gregs chef and his staff out did themselves. They prepared our rehearsal dinner, food for cocktail hour, reception dinner and everything was perfection. The wait staff was so attentive to everyone, including preparing special meals for the kiddies, vegetarians, and those with certain allergies. There is nothing they cannot handle. On wedding day, Greg made sure the Bridal Party -20 of them- were not forgotten. He prepared food, of our choice, and delivered it to the dressing areas, for the guys downstairs and the ladies on the main floor. This included Mimosas, which they loved! Immediately after the ceremony, he had food and drinks ready to grab as they boarded a trolley for outside photos. This special service kept them fed and hydrated, in what otherwise would have been a 12 hour day without a break. As the Bride and Groom prepared to leave at 11 pm, in a white horse and carriage, sweet Kaitlyn (Gregs event coordinator) knew Monica & Joey had never had time for dinner. She ran to the carriage, with dinner for two, and placed it on the seat for them to have when they arrived at their destination. This meant SO much to them and they enjoyed the wonderful reception meal together. If all this does not convince you, let me just tell you this. As a mother of the bride, I arrived late with the photographer waiting on the wedding gown. In the rush of getting inside, I ran to the trunk and found I had locked the car with the dress inside! I walked into Gregs office, totally panicked, knowing my daughter would be beyond upset. Greg calmly said, "Its ok. Well get it. Dont tell her." He got on the computer, got AAA on the phone, explained the emergency, gave directions, and I gave them my information. Long story short, Greg met AAA, got the dress out, and the bride never knew until hours later. He is SO Amazing! Would never go anywhere but The Millennium Center !!

You cant go wrong with the Millennium Center! We held our November 21st, 2015 wedding reception here and it was absolutely FANTASTIC! Greg Carlyle and his team were phenomenal and absolutely an integral part to pulling off such a special evening. Literally, my every wish/request was granted! Through all of the planning and decor & vendor selections, Greg was there to assist with suggestions and referrals and never once steered me wrong. And then to the actual day of, from getting ready in the bridal suite to tearing up the dance floor in to the night, we could not have asked for a more perfect celebration. The building itself is so special and really just a sight to behold and then on top of that, the support staff really has the wedding thing down to a science. One item that was really important to me was that the food be mind-blowing, and Chef Pat and Artisan really delivered - people are still talking about the MASSIVE charcuterie display. Also, I remember at first being a bit wary about not hiring a day of coordinator, but just as Greg reassured me, we stayed completely on schedule and the event flowed flawlessly. Our reception was simply perfection, and I am just SO thankful for the Millennium Center and team for all that they did to pull it off. This place is the epitome of elegance and like I stated in the beginning of this review, you cant go wrong with the Millennium Center!!

We had my daughters wedding at the Millennium Center last June and it was great. The Building is absolutly beautiful. The service was top notch. Greg was the best to deal with, anything we needed or wanted he saw to it and made sure everything was in order. Mrs. Carlyle made all of the flowers and they were just beautful. The food was also very good and enjoyed by everyone in attendance. I really cant say anything bad because it was all great.

Attended a wedding on Aug. 27, 2016. It was raining but there was someone outside with an umbrella to welcome you and help you not to get wet. The decor was beautiful. The options of chicken or salmon had an exquisite taste and was very good. The waiters and waitresses were kind and helpful. It was a wonderful experience.

Great event space in the heart of downtown. You will love attending a holiday-themed event, prom or wedding here. I love the old-school feel of the architecture and inside the columns look striking.
