Extraordinary

Justina was seriously so AMAZING and made our night beyond perfect, as well as all of the staff at the Holiday Inn. We couldn’t have asked for a better individual to help with all of the planning. Justina is so good at what she does and truly goes above and beyond to make your special day exactly what you envisioned it as. We are still in awe at how perfect our reception was!

Great Venue!

I recently had my wedding reception at the Holiday Inn. Justina was great, she was extremely organized and made the process easy.

I have heard nothing but great things about the venue, and the food from our guests.

Good and bad things about review

My guest expressed how frustrating it was that we had two cash bars at our wedding and the bar tenders were charging different prices at each bar. Guest expressed this and bar tenders didn't care. Bar tender was not friendly on one side of the room while the other bar tender was kind. The one truly acted like he didn't want to be there.

Holiday in staff was so friendly and helped light all of our candles before we arrived .
