Amazing To Work With!

The Team definitely did an amazing job throughout the whole wedding planning process! Their responses were so prompt. The venue itself was beautiful. The transitions throughout the day were seamless as well because of how the venue is.

And our Day of Coordinator, Emile-Margaret, she was literally perfect to work with. She actually showed us the venue, and sold us on it. And on the day of, SHE WAS ON POINT! We were so thankful to have her help. She also did an amazing job with connecting with all of our vendors.

Amazing Team with answering all of our questions. Just thankful to have worked with them and to have had such a perfect wedding day!

Thanks All❤️

Our Wedding Dreams Come True

After attending amazing shows at the Paramount for years and being season subscribers, I was thrilled to learn they hosted weddings. The Paramount always puts on an amazing show and our wedding was no different! I was so impressed with all of the details they helped us bring together to craft the wedding of our dreams. It was a magical experience from beginning to end. They have a handful for preferred vendors you need to chose from for catering and entertainment, but honestly I found this made the vendor selection much less intimidating. The vendors are in a range of price points and our wedding coordinator at the Paramount walked us through that information. We met with the Paramount wedding coordinator periodically throughout the planning process. Those meetings helped us remain on track with the planning and reminded us of small details we may have forgotten. Planning can be stressful, but Emile-Margaret and everyone at the Paramount were so amazing. I highly recommend them.
