A Perfect Day

We had our wedding ceremony and reception in the Reikart Ballroom and we have zero regrets! Dan the Sales Manager came on board halfway through our planning process and he was wonderful to work. He was responsive to emails and phone calls, patient with our questions, and strived to make our day everything we wanted it to be. Our guests were amazed at the beauty of the venue and could not stop telling us about how good the food was. Debbie the Catering Manager was fabulous on the day of the wedding and made sure we got out food and drinks amidst the busy day. She and her staff got meals out to guests quickly and kept the room looking beautiful from set up to take down. We also rented rooms in the hotel and were blown away by their beauty and appreciated the convenience of being able to get ready onsite. We loved the Reikart House and Ballroom and strongly encourage others to check them out for their own special day!

Magical Evening at Reikart House

We chose Reikart House for our wedding ceremony & reception and they did not disappoint! The entire evening ran like clockwork, transforming the room from ceremony space to reception ballroom during cocktail hour. Our guests raved about the food & service (also dancing & music). We were even assigned a separate staff member should we need anything throughout the night! Everyone was extremely happy, the adjacent hotel is pet friendly & staff there is super accommodating. I would highly recommend Reikart House & Reikart Ballroom if you want to feel like royalty for your special event. Amazing!!!
