Brennans build a buffet wedding option!

Only thing is I wish I asked for extra plates since we didn’t have enough but we were able to still get by! Food was delicious everyone loved it. Went and got seconds and we had plenty! Scott was great to work with we did a build a buffet option which was more affordable for 170 people!

Brennan's is budget friendly w/ a touch of class

I picked the best venue for our wedding reception. We saved a lot of money because I was able to DIY. I rented this venue to include the ceiling drapes w/lights, blue up lighting, thrones, lighted towers and the mr and mrs table used for our candy table from outside vendors. We were able to come in the day before to set up and bring in our own alcohol. Everyone employed by this venue was so polite, professional and helpful even with another event going on. If I asked for it, they worked it out for me. I received so many compliments on the food (extremely tasteful). I'm still smiling from all the compliments.

We held our reception at Brennan's Sapphire Hall in November, and we couldn't have asked for a better venue. Brennan's was affordable, but our wedding still feel like a high-class affair. We had started off working with Wendy, who was great, but she left to take another job just a few weeks before our wedding. While this could have been stressful, we hardly noticed the transition, as we started working with Jason, who was exceptional. He ensured that the night went exactly as we had envisioned it. The staff at Brennan's was very professional, the food was delicious, and our wedding was perfect. If I had to do it again, I'd pick Brennan's.

We had our reception at St. Paul Hellenic Center run by Brennan's Catering. It was perfect. The room has been recently renovated and well decorated for weddings. The food was fantastic and the staff couldn't be more helpful. Jason helped us organize everything. I was out of town so he even allowed me to come in a few month prior to see the space and speak with him. At the last minute we were unable to get someone to the venue to setup our cupcake stand and Jason had his staff jump in and help. The space is big but not overwhelming for the 200 people we had in attendance. We could have easily fit 250. The dance floor is big, the music doesn't have to be blaring and the bar is off to the side so I didn't get dragged in to too many shots. Thank you Brennan's for the wonderful hospitality and stress free day!!!!

Since I had a Friday in February Wedding I got some great discounts negotiated through Dina and Jason. The sapphire room (the one on their own) I think is perfect for like 150, even though they say for like 250. Underestimate your guaranteed number though because they’ll get you for a lot on that. The lighting is wonderful, lots of space, great clean bathrooms, wonderful service from all the staff. Everyone loved it.
Sapphire room has its own entrance, ramps and stairs and is a very classic room for a banquet center. Parking is free and there is a ton of it.

Jason and the entire staff at Brennan's know how to make your wedding reception the most unforgettable, relaxing, well-orchestrated and memorable day of your life! We checked out four other venues prior to looking at Brennan's...but no one could compare. They take the guesswork out of everything! Their efficiency comes from years of being in the business, but also the rapport they have with each and every person that walks through their doors. We're so thankful to them and know that even without this review, people will fill their halls for as long as they remain in the business. If you're looking for a place that offers a multitude of options, delicious food and attention to every detail, look no further. We hold them in my highest regard.
Sincerely,
Mr. and Mrs. Voytko

Our reception was at the Saint Paul Hellenic Center. A few if the main reasons we chose Brennan's was because the venue was recently updated, the food was delicious, and Brennan's has been around for a really long time! We worked with Jason from the very beginning and he was very professional and awesome to work with! The night of the reception went smoothly and Brennan's staff did a great job. I would recommend the hot Hors d'oeuvre, prime rib, chicken Marsala and red skin mashed potatoes. The food was delicious and we received several compliments from friends and family.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
