Our wedding was on 4/27/13 at Occasions at Stone River. I was so very happy with everything from the very 1st detail to the very last minute of our wedding and reception. Our wedding Coordinator Angela Johnson went out of her way to make sure we were all taken care and that everything was exactly how I wanted it. Our DJ Peter Silander made sure our music was exactly how we wanted and was so caring about everything. I had read good reviews about Occasions and that is why we had our wedding there, but I never thought that it would as perfect as it was. At the end of the night we left there feeling totally happy with it all. On our way to our honeymoon destination we were coming up with our next special occasion so that we could go back, LOL! I would totally recommend Occasions to anyone that is looking for a special place that will see to it that you are taking care of in every way possible and that everything is perfect. AWESOME JOB! Thank you so much Angela and Peter. We Love ya'll!!

Sincerely and Totally Amazed

I could not have had my wedding if it weren't for all of the wonderful help from Occasions' staff. The place is beautiful! The staff is great! The food is out of this world good!

I would recommend Ocassions at Stone River to anyone that wants to have an amazing wedding & reception. The wedding coordinator Angela made our whole experience outstanding. The Chef Zach was very accommodating to our special request & the food was great! The staff was very friendly and helpful. We could not have asked for a more beautiful wedding experience!

We had our wedding here almost a month ago and it was wonderful! We were able to bring in our own decorations and use some of theirs as well. They accommodated a lot of our needs and adjusted to me changing my "vision" every week (thank you Pinterest) with no issues at all!
The food was amazing and all the guest kept coming up to tell us this. Everyone loved the photobooth that they have! It was a big hit!
Angela is awesome and heaven sent!!! She made my stress level drop everytime we talked! The DJ, the owners, and the staff are beyond nice and very professional as well! I loved every moment of our wedding and I'm so glad we picked Occasions as our venue! It was the Best Day Ever! :)

Occasions does the most beartiful venue, and it was absolutely perfect for my wedding.

There are so helpful with everything. I did not have to worry about anything on my wedding day. They took care of everything and made sure everything went smoothly. The staff there is super nice and will answer any questions you may have at any time. They were available to me whenever I needed them. I would HIGHLY recommended using Occasions at Stone River. The place is beautiful and the staff is superior.

The staff was excellent,professional and very service oriented. The wedding coordinators, the DJ, the photographer, the videographer and the pastor on site were all outstanding, courteous, polite and had a positive attitude. The venue was gorgeous, well maintained and exquisitely decorated. The reception, food and wait staff were all excellent, efficient and very amenable. If I could give the venue a "10" on this website, I would!

Occasions at Stone River is the place to go if you want an elegant atmosphere at a reasonable price! Our wedding was less than a week ago (Saturday, June 23, 2012), and I could not wait to return from my honeymoon and write a great review!

Although my husband and I live in the Grand Prairie area (about an hour away from the venue), we knew that Occasions at Stone River was the our wedding venue as soon as we saw it! Our wedding theme was "country elegance", and Occasions at Stone River delivered!

Venue: The venue looks exactly like the pictures! We were stunned when we saw it for the first time. It's really beautiful. I loved the ceremony area because it was an intimate setting. Sometimes, large spaces make it seem like there is a small number of guests. Our guests kept raving about the wedding! They loved the laid back, country atmosphere outside. They also loved the setting inside the ceremony building and the elegance of the reception space. We had our wedding inside, but everyone loved seeing the swans and the gazebo.

Food: Everyone loooooved the food! Our families know good food, and several people thanked us for choosing good food. We chose the Ranchers Menu, which included smoked pork, beef, and turkey along with a roll. We chose mashed potatoes and green bean almondine for the sides. We added a special punch that Occasions makes. People kept saying how much they loved it. It was really good. The food was great.

Music: Peter the Motivator DJ was a joy to work with during our wedding. He had some problems finding some songs that we really wanted, but he fixed the issue and joined up with Micah, the DJ. Micah added the other songs and kept that going while Peter kept the party going! Peter was very organized and contacted me many times before the wedding. He was personable, fun, and happy... which was a joy. His great ideas such as the money dance and the anniversary dance as well as the special entrance really kept the party going. Some people were worried that the wedding would not be as exciting because our ceremony was at 11:30am, but it was quite the opposite... thanks to Peter! When I had no idea of what to do, Peter filled it in and made great choices. Peter and Micah worked it out at our wedding!

Service: I can't say enough about Ms. Angela and Ms. Betty! They were so nice and accommodating from the very start! They were awesome. They had ideas and were in control and laid back even when I was a worried bride. Our cake caterer had an accident and left us with no wedding cake caterer less than two months before our wedding. Ms.Angela called one of her contacts in Royse City (Simply Everything),
and we were able to do a tasting that same day. The cake was delicious, creative, and less expensive than the other cake! Ms. Angela and Ms. Betty went above and beyond my expectations! Also, the servers at the wedding were very courteous and professional.

My husband and I had the wedding of our DREAMS! Our wedding day was so much MORE than we could have imagined. I don't know how they did it, but they "wowed" me ... and I'm the bride! lol. I felt like we had a wedding that costs twice as much as it really did. I would suggest Occasions at Stone River to any and every bride! Don't worry about it being far. We had a packed ceremony and reception. Everyone made it. Don't worry about having an early wedding (if you choose that option), it can still be just as fun if not more fun than an evening one!

I'm so happy I picked Occasion's for my wedding. The place looked fabulous and the food was amazing! Angela is very helpful and knows the in and outs of wedding planning. I wish I would have trusted her and Occasions more from start and it would have saved me lots of $. I brought in way too many little decorations and such which were not needed, when she says they have candles, ashtrays, and other items believe her! Also paid for outside florist, which really isn't needed with all the centerpieces they provide. Great place to get married!

Everything you could possibly want for a wedding. Perfect 10

I only had six months to plan my wedding and I knew that Occasions at Stone River was the perfect place for us. Having a short amount of time to plan Angela was WONDERFUL!! She was very helpful and was easy to contact. The venue and the reception was so beautiful. The food they served was so delious. I couldn't have planned a better wedding for the money and time I had to plan.

the people here are great. i only had 1 problem with the venue and its a small mistake (the reception light colors were wrong). i love the people,they are very understanding and great,and the food is wonderful.

Everything about my daughters wedding was simply PERFECT!!

My wedding took place 6 weeks after I was engaged! I could NOT have done this without Occasions at Stone River, a one stop shop. All I had to do is choose my selections with them, they did the rest. I would highly recommend this wonderful venue to anyone!! The staff there is so easy to work with they all went above and beyond my expectations to ensure my day was PERFECT!!

Occasions was the first place my husband and I looked at for our wedding ceremony/reception and we booked it that day. I love the all inclusive feel of occasions but the wedding party still has control of the day and what they want. The catering occasions provides is top of the line, big shout out to Chef Zach and his amazing team. Everyone raved about the food. Angela our wedding day coordinator is the best at what she does. She is so calm and level headed, exactly what I needed the day of. This venue is gorgeous!

Occasions was the first place that I was actually able to visit for my wedding location and I absolutely fell in love. The service was wonderful, the food was magnificent and it was absolutely a great price for everything that they offered. If I had it to do over again, I would choose them all over again!!!!!
