Upcoming sweet 16

We recently met with Mencia to plan my daughter's sweet 16. She was extremely professional, detailed and gave us many options to choose from. I feel the pricing was very fair for what you are getting and am looking forward to the big day.

Overbooked and Understaffed

I met with Menica to book my wedding a year in advance. Everything seemed cool. I was happy with the choice we made. But 2 months before the wedding Mencia stopped answering our emails. The day before the wedding she called me and said, "it's going to rain tomorrow. I have the Atrium available for your ceremony." How could she have the Atrium available when that's the room that was booked for my reception? The day of the wedding came and there were no centerpieces on my reception tables. She had promised us that we could use the calla lily centerpieces when booking the wedding. Turns out she gave them to a repass that was happening next door. I also reserved black napkins a year in advance. Those were also given the the repass next door. We paid for 125 guests to be seated at 13 tables. Only 12 tables were put out. My guests had no seats. I wonder if I'll get and refund for that? We asked prior to the wedding if the goose poop was going to be cleaned off the patio. We were assured it would be down since it's mandatory they do that everyday. There was poop everywhere. My guests, including myself in my wedding gown, were walking though goose poop. On a good note, the staff was very nice and helpful. But Mencia made my wedding day more stressful then planning it. Stop overbooking!!!

Very Unhappy!!!

this "WAS" my fourth time there, before/prior it was called the "Forge" (but Never again!) this new co. was totally understaffed, very nice kids when they did come out!, but they ran out of food! guests standing in line complaining of no food?, myself and my wife and three other family members spoke to the manager that it was Unbearably Hot in our room, he told me it was due to the ovens??? but he would check again!,, after one hour with no results my cousin found a thermostat set at 78 degrees!!! by the bar so he lowered it with immediate results!!!!!! the funny part it was almost cooler outside,,,, we, my family were very upset and saddened of the total circumstances. jerry serg

Extremely Rude and Unprofessional

If I can give them 0 stars, I would. The venue is beautiful, but the staff inside it are not. They were extremely rude and things were not ready when we got to the venue. We lost 3 hours of prep time due to the halls and bridal sites not being clean. They are blamed us for the delayed start even though though they were the reason things did start on time. They almost made us pay extra to extend the celebration while threatening to shut the lights and power off.

Money was not the issue. We had verbal agreements with the owner Raju that were not held and the staff acted like they knew nothing.

Overall horrible experience
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
