We could not be happier! George and Fadia did such an amazing job with our wedding. They made our day perfection, and worry free!

We held both our ceremony and reception there in the downstairs area. They set up a GORGEOUS ceremony for us, and were kind enough to put out the million hand-made things my husband and I created to personalize our ceremony and reception (at no extra cost above the ceremony set-up fee). They allowed us to drop off all of the items the day before the wedding, and Fadia took extra time with me to make sure that she understood EXACTLY how we wanted those things set-up so that it would be perfect. This really eased my fears as we did not have a decorator/florist setting up our reception/ceremony. In the end, they followed the directions perfectly, and everything looked as though we had set it up ourselves as everything was put out exactly how we wanted it.

Cocktail hour was a huge hit. Guests have talked about how much they enjoyed the food, and have given high praise to the crab cakes. They even made sure to send hors d’oeuvres outside to us as we were taking pictures so we had a chance to taste our own food as we took the mandatory pictures. The staff was very attentive, and made sure to ask my Hubby and I our preferences throughout the night so that we were completely happy.
The reception was incredible, and the food was to DIE FOR! They allowed our guests the luxury of picking what they wanted at the tables and gave them 5 different choices (vegetarian, filet mignon, chicken, salmon, and a veal choice). Our guests thought this was so luxurious, and the food was unparalleled. We have only gotten rave reviews from our guests who cannot stop talking about the food and the alcohol. The cost of the open bar was reasonable, and they even kept the bar open an extra hour at little cost to us…this earned major brownie points with our guests, and us.

Long story short, our wedding was the PERFECT DAY that it was because of Evviva. The place is absolutely beautiful, George and Fadia are so easy to work with, the service is professional and attentive, it is reasonably priced (great if you are on a budget/paying for your wedding), and everything just felt SOOO luxurious! We highly recommend them!

Perfect place to hold any event. George and Fadia can make any event fabulous. Our guest are still telling us how ours was the best wedding ever. The food was exceptional- not a single complaint. The portions were perfect. The charm of the venue itself added to the pictures. Can't say enough wonderful things.

It was a beautiful victorian venue --they gave everyone the choice of 5 different entrees-food was fabulous-very intimate-up to about 110 pp. We paid for everything at the end except for a small $500 deposit when booked. No worries, they took care of everything.
