About

Reviews of The Inn on Broadway
Better than we could have ever dreamed
All about the details!
Abbye and her team at the Inn on Broadway were so patient with us as we compared venues and asked numerous questions. We visited the Inn many times before making our decision, the staff their always gave us a warm welcome making us feel at home. We brought our parents along for our final tour and decided to end our evening at Tournedos, the quality of food was amazing and we could see it representing us on our big day. Food was a very important part of our big day, throughout the planning process Abbye worked with culinary team to accommodate our vision and find solutions to our dietary restrictions. Our guests were truly amazed with the quality of food from the hors d'oeuvres, dinner, dessert, and not to mention our farewell brunch.
As a bride with a hectic schedule Abbye was so accommodating. She always responded quickly and made time to meet with us. She remembered all of the small details we discussed in our meetings and executed them. Her attention to detail was so reassuring, when it came to the day of, we weren't anxious about the setup of ballroom at all. Abbye was certain to ask all of the questions in advance and really took the time to get to know us as a couple and our vision. We were so excited to see the ballroom and the reception, as soon as we walked in it was instant tears of joy. We loved and appreciated every small detail that went into creating our perfect reception.
It's been over 4 month and we are still so grateful for Abbye and the team at the Inn on Broadway for our perfect day.
