Beautiful Location

I had the privilege to meet Joyce, she was very attentive in listening to and explain every detail in regard to the wedding package to us. I host my wedding at this beautiful place. My husband was happy and so was all our guests. From family to friends. The food was great. The decorations were also beautiful. Beautiful place for pictures also.

Flawless Wedding

The Meridian far exceeded my expectations. We got married there in December 2019 and the place was stunning! The Christmas decorations were what sold us when we went to look at venues the year before. My family and I also absolutely loved working with Phil. We could not have been happier on our special day. He was was so much fun to work with and he helped with anything that we needed or wanted. Our wedding was even better than we had planned. I would recommend Meridian Banquets in a heartbeat!

Breathtaking!’

We worked with Joyce who was so quickly responsive to every little silly detail questions I had up until the wedding day. I’m an organized person, but she did an excellent job of informing me of where I should be at with planning, without being pushy. Her timelines are on point! She made us feel welcomed, and she understood the ambience we were going for. The whole team let me drop by during the planning time unannounced whether just to take photos or ask questions. Everyone is friendly and they make time for you. The service the day of our wedding was outstanding. Catered to like a king and queen, they made sure every detail was up to par. We were slightly delayed in making it to the reception but the manager saw the look of panic in my eyes and escorted me to the bridal suite while making sure the staff let rest of the bridal party know where to go. The food, delicious, the service, outstanding. Well worth every penny.

An absolutely beautiful and romantic scene for our reception

Meridian Banquets was our first choice right from the start. I have never felt so welcome at a banquet hall than I did at the Meridian. Everyone at the Meridian treated us like family throughout the entire process. They truly took the vision we had for our wedding and made it a reality. Our day was truly perfect thanks to the Meridian.

We were lucky enough to have a first look at the room before any guests came in. I was doubled over in happiness when I first saw it. The Meridian created an absolutely beautiful and romantic scene for our reception. Once guests came in they were seated right away and served the most delicious meal. From the decorations in the room, to the uplighting, to the service, to the bar, to the music, to the food, to the exquisite dessert bar, Meridian Banquets gave us a full five star service.

If you are looking for a place to have your special day at, my husband and I would highly recommend them!

Thank you for everything!

Exceeded Expectations !!!

We are so happy we selected Meridian Banquets as our wedding reception venue for our August 25th 2018 wedding. I had the pleasure of working with Joyce, Tina, Phil & Yola. They are all very professional, sweet, accommodating and prompt in answering any questions. All of them were of tremendous help in the planning process. They were all very flexible with all of my ideas , ensuring that my day was exactly how i pictured it. Everything was decorated so beautifully on the day off! The venue is simply put gorgeous!! They had a promotional package of uplighting which was definitely a very nice addition. The food is delicious,all of our guests were raving about it! The waitstaff was outstanding, so polite and hardworking! There was a wide selection of drinks which everybody enjoyed. Overall a perfect venue for any occasion and such a great value! Loved loved loved! Exceeded expectations in every category! Will host all future family events here and would recommend to everyone!

I would give this place 100 stars if I could. I was married at The Meridian on 7/7. Yola, Phil and Tina did everything in the realm of possibility to make sure our wedding was perfect. The food was delicious, the service waa above par and the set up was absolutely beautiful. I can't recommend this place enough.
