Lovely Venue

We had my Daughter’s bridal shower at Creekside and had a Sunday
Brunch. I was so pleased with the whole process and event. The Event Space is lovely, the staff was so kind, helpful and flexible and the food was delicious! I would recommend and will use again!

Cannot say enough good things about creekside!

Every staff member was welcoming, friendly, and devoted to giving us the wedding of our dreams! Rebecca, our event coordinator at Creekside, went above and beyond to make sure our day was perfect. She walked through every venue decision with us and brought our vision to life! I am extremely detail-oriented and don’t typically delegate tasks because I tend to doubt that most people can meet my high expectations. That being said, Rebecca was thorough, precise, and organized, and I felt fully confident with delegating what I could to her and having her coordinate so much for our wedding – she went above and beyond and exceeded any expectations I had! (I think that is one of the highest praises I can offer anyone). Creekside was the perfect venue and Rebecca pulled our wedding together exceptionally. I would 100% recommend Creekside for a wedding – or any event!

Great Wedding Venue

We had our wedding at Creekside and had a great experience. The staff was very helpful preparing before and the day of our event. They helped us coordinate our vendors and the schedule of our wedding timeline. The day of our ceremony there was an issue with the AC but the staff was able to resolve it quickly and ensured that us and our guests had a comfortable environment. We heard several compliments from our guests that they loved the venue and we would recommend it to anyone looking to get married.

The Best Day Ever!

We held our wedding here and it was the most AMAZING day ever! We had booked over a year in advance and throughout that time, Taylor and Rebecca were so diligent on making sure we had all the details in place and made us feel like this was the easiest process ever. I think the most memorable party of our wedding that we continue to hear guests compliment was the food and just the overall aesthetic! If you are looking for a beautiful venue, with amazing staff - this is the place to choose!

Amazing venue and event staff

We had our winter wedding at Creekside and couldn't of asked for a better venue and event team. As soon as we walked into the ballroom, the floor to ceiling windows on both ends with views sealed the deal!
I spent most my time before the wedding speaking with Taylor who handles the financial department and Karlie the amazing event coordinator getting everything all set. Day of the wedding Karlie was right there running the show making sure everything was going to plan, and on time along side event staff Decia. I can't say enough about these two ladies. From Friday drop off/ rehearsal to Sunday morning clean up and pick up Decia was there for us, even days later when we forgot to take th top half of our cake. For the most important part, the food!!! Once we came in for our menu tasting we knew we really did made a good choice. We went with sirloin and marsala chicken served buffet style with ceasar salad, garlic green beans and mashed potatoes that were so freaking good! We had so many compliments on the food, hats off to the Chef.
We are so thankful that we chose Creekside for our wedding and reception and would be glad to have any other event there in the future!

Beautiful Venue with helpful staff

Creekside was wonderful to work with. We ended up postponing our wedding by a whole year due to covid and they were so flexible and didn't charge any fees/penalties for the date change.
Karlie was so helpful leading up to and on the day of the wedding.
The food was delicious (we had brisket and cheese ravioli) and the venue is beautiful.
The staff is very helpful and kind.
We had all day Friday to set up for our Saturday wedding (this isn't always possible due to other events, but if it isn't possible they will set up for you).
They also took everything down for us and stored it away until my parents were able to pick it up a few days later.
I got so many compliments on the venue and how beautiful and elegant it was. It has a ballroom feel without being stuffy or cold. There are lots of seating areas for lounging during the reception. The bride and groom suites are nice and well appointed and morning of snacks were affordable and tasty.
The free garage parking is also very nice and convenient for guests. I would definitely choose Creekside again if I had to do it all over!

The Perfect Reception Choice

Creekside was the perfect place for our wedding! The location is beautiful whether during the daylight with the views or the creek or at night with the Christmas lights! It was convenient to have the covered parking lot right underneath the building especially for a winter wedding reception. The entire staff was professional and friendly! Karli especially went above and beyond to help make our day perfect! Any problems we ran into, she quickly solved which allowed me to relax and not worry about anything! The food was delicious! It was even better on the night of our wedding than at the food tasting. They were accommodating for Covid related things, even giving 2 free plated hor d'oeuvres.

Simply amazing!

From day one reaching out to Greg at Creekside we were extremely pleased. Every email with him and Karlie were answered promptly. Working with these two was so stress free and they are beyond professional. Creekside is a one stop shop- the pricing, food, layout, accommodations, staff, and everything else was second to none. They truly made our wedding planning and wedding day stress free.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

I have performed a few weddings and one bar mitzvah at Creekside Conference and Event Center as a photographer. If you love a modern feel with an event that can host both large and small parties you should check them out! We also enjoy the option to have an outdoor ceremony with lots of places for photo props (bridge, fountains, woods, trails, etc) for our couples and wedding parties. And if it rains, the indoor option is pretty sweet as well. Throw in great food, quality service all at a reasonable price and you will wall away with feeling good about your choice of venue!
