Excellent Experience!

Working with Zoila was one of the highlights of our wedding planning experience. She made everything clear, but also flexible. When we asked questions, she gave us good solutions and explained our options. She always responded and truly made our event feel special. The venue itself was beautifully decorated when we arrived. We had a very fun time at our food tasting and enjoyed picking out our napkin colors, etc. The day of the event, Zoila had hors d'oeuvres waiting for us with beverages in a bridal suite. All of the food was delicious (our family and friends especially loved the soup). The package came with a great open bar and we got to choose a cake from the Baking Institute which was also delicious. We invited 280 people, including many kids, to our wedding and this was the best priced venue we could find by far. We had a great experience and are especially grateful for Zoila!

Our reception was in the skyline ballroom. The space was great and everyone loved the view of the city from way up on the 16th floor.

Wedding Sept 2019

This place as my wife calls it is a hidden gem. We had our wedding on the top floor. We had the entire floor to ourselves. It was beautifully decorated. The food was very good for a banquet hall. Zoila the manager is very professional and hepful. Thanks Zoila!

Overall, we had a great experience with the Midwest Conference Center. Zoila was wonderful to work with as the Catering Manager, and she was just so helpful through all of the planning.

There were a few issues and mistakes made on the night of our wedding, but she took care of them very quickly, which was appreciated.

Zoila Matracardi was very accommodating and did an excellent job of making sure everything we requested was carried out to the letter. The food was hot, flavorful and delicious. We received plenty of compliments on the food including the vegetarian meals and appetizers! The portions are just right and nobody went home hungry. The wait staff moved in and our seamlessly and were very courteous. The venue is beautiful and well kept with plenty of parking. There was another event taking place but we didn't feel neglected and were never disturb by that events music. They were able to accommodate our specialty drink request and it tasted sensational! We had an open bar and the drinks were not watered down or deficient in anyway. The only complaint was that sometimes it did take a few days to get a response back but once we spoke with them, they took care of everything right away. We only had the reception there but they can accommodate the ceremony too if need be.

There were many previous reviews suggesting poor professionalism and quality of food. However, we had a great experience with Zoila (director of sales and catering). She was accommodating to all our needs. The food was great. The cake was amazing. She also pulled a lot of strings to get us discounts and free upgrades. I did receive consistent feedback from my guests suggesting that the servers were rude and would not serve vegetarian plates to my guests. I will bring this up to them.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
