I was exceptionally pleased with Abbington Banquets, and would recommend them to anyone looking for a spectacular place to host a reception. Throughout the entire planning process, Tara Kubicki was always quick to respond to my many questions. Prices here are very reasonable for a beautiful banquet hall with chandeliers and white glove service. Everyone at the wedding raved about how good the food was. And when I entered the room, it looked just like how I had always imagined. Our banquet manager for the night of the wedding, Diane (or Diana?) was wonderful. She helped calm my mom down when she started freaking out (members of the bridal party were late, pushing back our "go time"). She got me whatever I needed, and even helped us bring everything out to the car at the end of the night. She was really amazing. In short, I feel like we got a great deal on a beautiful banquet hall, complete with great food, open bar, and even a sweets table. Everyone I worked with was pleasant and helpful. I can't recommend the Abbington more!

Our wedding reception was amazing. We worked very closey with Alyssa. She was AWESOME and paid action to detail. The Abbington's staff went above and beyond to make sure we had a perfect reception. The food was delicious (actually better than the tasting), our host was on point with all the particulars, as well as the servers. The server for the head table made sure we had everything needed to keep the party going. I can't say thank you enough. We only had 1 problem, it went by too fast. We needed a couple more hours to dance. lol Thanks again.
