We had our luncheon in the Sharon and Manchester rooms and it was absolutely beautiful. The food was delicious and it was beautifully decorated. It was the perfect space for our group!

We had our reception in the Empire Room. Absolutely stunning. We received so many compliments afterwards. Several of my guests and the bride were gluten free. They happily accommodated and made sure their needs were met. We used Granite for our cake so the JSMB happily cut our cake at no extra charge. We could not have been more pleased with how it turned out. And the price was very reasonable.
