Always a good experience

I've never been to an event at Horizon's that has left me unimpressed. They are highly professional and cater to your every need. Andrea was always there to answer any questions promptly!

Highly Recommend!!!

Where do I even start?!? The entire staff was absolutely amazing to work with but Ernie went above and beyond! We had our wedding (on stage) and reception at the Temple Theater therefore we worked with Horizons. Ernie was so kind and flexible throughout the entire process! We went through Horizons for the flowers, rented the center pieces as well and we were SO happy with how everything looked on the big day! They even created a “lantern scape” on the stage for us because we had a smaller wedding party on such a large stage. The food was absolutely amazing and we had a lot of compliments. We also received multiple compliments about how absolutely everything was on time! With Ernie in charge your day will be perfect and the Temple Theater was a BEAUTIFUL place to have our big day, especially after the Horizons crew set it up for us. Another thing I was very happy with was the fact we were able to see what our tables would look like before the big day. They set up a tasting for us to taste the food we thought we would want served on our big day and had a table set with the linens and centerpieces we had picked so we wouldn’t be worried about how it would look on the wedding day!!! I can’t rave about Ernie and the Horizons crew enough!!! Highly recommend the venue and the staff seals the deal!!!

Endless compliments on our reception!

We held our wedding reception at HORIZONS, and everyone there was an absolute joy to work with. Our wedding coordinator made it so that we did not have to worry about a thing. We knew from the beginning that she would take care of everything well for us. The Floral Director puts together stunning decorations and personal floral. We could not have been more pleased with the service and atmosphere they created. The food was fantastic, too! We received compliments all night about how wonderful the reception was, and how beautiful everything looked!

Where do I start? Celeste, the event coordinator, did a wonderful job of working with me, the mother of the bride, the groom's mother, and the bride and groom. She balanced well the requests and indecision among us! She was patient with us and worked us through everything. The venue for the ceremony and the dinner was absolutely stunning! The uplighting, draping and beading was beautiful! They provided the head table candlescape and we did everything else. They worked well with all our vendors and gave us plenty of room and time. We had different buffet stations. The food was excellent and the servers were attentive. Our guests were happy and we were happy with Horizons and would definitely have another wedding there. I would highly recommend them for your wedding and/or reception.

From the very beginning, the Horizons coordinators have been there for me every step of the way. They have many selections to choose from when it comes to decor, food and beverage packages. I had decided on a plated dinner for my guests considering the size of my wedding, and I heard nothing but good things from my guests on their staff, service and how amazing the food was! The decor was beautiful! It was like they knew exactly how I wanted things to be played out. Everything went smoothly and would definitely recommend them for future brides-to-be!

The staff at Horizons made planning our wedding day so much more enjoyable and less stressful. The venue at the Temple Theatre was gorgeous, the food was amazing, and the people we worked with were so friendly and helpful. The entire day was flawless and we have the people at Horizons (especially Alaina) to thank for that. I would highly recommend Horizons to anyone looking for a classy and fun venue with great service.
