I wish we could give the Regatta more than 5 stars! Barbara and her team were very flexible and easy to work with. They took a quote that we had received and beat it with an amazing backyard BBQ buffet. The farm our wedding was at did not have any cooking facilities. The Regatta team arrived in shifts delivering our food to keep it all warm and fresh. Our guests still rave about the food at our wedding. We couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. We would highly recommend the Regatta for your next event and hope to use them again in the future.

The Regatta is certainly the place to book any special event, particularly a wedding reception! Their prices are very reasonable and Barbara (Marketing Director) was absolutely amazing and so helpful throughout the whole process. Barbara met with us on several occasions to go over details of the reception, helped create a timeline, and was extremely flexible to all our requests and needs. We were even able to use any of their items they had as centerpieces, and considering our wedding was an ocean themed wedding, it was great because they had lots of seashells, sea glass, rocks, etc... for us to use at no additional cost. Barbara ensures her and her staff set up the entire reception and is exactly how we wanted it....they even called me the day before to see if I could swing by to take a look at the centerpieces to ensure they were to my liking. The food was absolutely superb, my guests talked incessantly about how great the food was. The staff were very accommodating and kept me informed throughout the night of food service as well as where they had our items that we would need once we left. The facility has everything you need all in one place, a cocktail area, a bridal suite, and a large ballroom with a huge dance floor. There isn't enough positive things I can say, this place was absolutely perfect!
