Amazing Reception at Guadalajara Grill

Working with Tina H at Guadalajara Grill was the best experience. The reception area is very cozy, with a max capacity of 96 people, which was perfect for our needs. The food was amazing (beef & chicken fajita buffet) and the ambiance of this older building was just what we needed for our wedding theme (Mexican Fiesta). Tina was always available for any questions I had leading up to our wedding and met with us the week before to go over all the details. She was so thorough and really cared about our event going to plan. She was a great coordinator also, making sure everything ran smoothly the day of. My husband and I were so happy with how everything turned out and owe a great deal of that to Tina. Would definitely recommend!
