Spot on perfection!

From beginning of planning for our wedding to the rehearsal dinner to the end of our reception …. The Core treated us like family with professionalism, ease and total joy for our occasion there! They kept on point with plans made or changes that arose, their presentation was exactly what I asked for , the food was delicious -both dinners- and enjoyed by all ; my reception was held in their new Bourbon room and couldn’t have been a better decision on our part for the comfortable welcomeness that room offers ; we are so happy we chose The Core along with all the memories it helped us make with family and friends ❤️

I was the greatest day of our lives.

I can honestly say that our wedding went better than anything I could imagine, and it was all because of Core Event Center. We got lucky to find a place that was super convenient to having the rehearsal, ceremony, reception and afterparty all in the same place. It was a luxury to have a shuttle service near the Hampton and Holiday Inn since we had a lot of people traveling for our wedding day. Joey, the event manager, was very exceptional to work with. The bartender at our wedding was terrific. Our guests went out of their way to tell us how great she was. There were, however, a few details that were missed. I think if we met with the wedding planner/coordinator prior to our wedding it would have been better.
