So much better than I expected

We decided to switch to the Great Hall about a month before our wedding in order to have more guests during Covid restrictions. Working with Josh and Ericia was so easy and they were very attentive to what we were wanting out of our reception. Even though our reception only had ~60 people in their large ballroom, they spaced it out so well to fill the room yet still give plenty of space between guests. They put lights on the tables to make everything look beautiful at no additional charge. And the food was spectacular. I wasn't expecting much from a banquet hall, but the food was so good! We had sooooo many compliments on the food from our guests. I also wanted to do a late night fry bar snack which they didn't have as an option at the time, and they came up with an amazing plan for it. I honestly got the wedding of my dreams given the world situation with Covid. When I went in and saw the space before my first look, my jaw dropped and I started tearing up because it was so beautiful and so much better than I had ever dreamt.

I can't say enough good things about the great hall. They made sure every detail for my wedding was perfect. I had my ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception here and it was beautiful. When I was short a few vases and filler for my centerpieces they provided me with some, they have a huge selection of items that they provide if needed. They hung purple and gray poms and paper lanters from the ceiling for my ceremony, and went above and beyond with everything. In our package they included signature drinks, meat carvings stations, and even late night pizzas for our guests, everything was a hit and we have heard from many people it was the best wedding they have ever been to.

The Great Hall is absolutely gorgeous. I had my ceremony in the lobby and they have a breathtaking circular ceiling with a huge pot of flowers and a stone mosaic wall we used as the backdrop for our ceremony. The ballroom is magnificent, with chandeliers with colored uplighting that you can customize. They provide lighted table skirts that add just the right amount of whimsy. Josh Obertein was super nice and worked with me on price. They were short-staffed the weekend of my wedding and had an even the night before, so Josh was hard to get a hold of the day of, as he was running around setting up all my tables! But everything I asked for got done. And to top it off, the service and food was excellent too!

Our wedding was great. Everything was set up perfect, josh was super helpful. I had tons of great feed back about the food. Erika could have been a little more responsive and organized but it turned out perfect. It’s worth every second
Highly recommend this hall.

The staff here are fabulous to work with! Excellent food for our guests was very important to us. Great Hall didn't let us down - fabulous prime rib, roasted chicken, salads, potatoes, we had so many compliments on the great meal! A very centralized place to have a wedding reception, no need to spend lots of money on decorations as the rooms are already gorgeous!
