So Pleased!!!

The staff was great! From the initial inquiry, to our first visit, offering options, throughout the whole planning process, right up to the actual event - Kirby & the whole staff were terrific is helping guide us in our special event. We used their large room (for the reception), which included the outside area near the pond & fountain (for the ceremony). It also provided us the deck which was utilized by many guests, because the weather was fantastic.
I’d highly recommend the Shoreview Community Center for any event!

Beautiful venue, affordable, and easy to work with. Very flexible and accomodating. Could not have asked for a better location. Able to pick our own caterer, which was a bonus.

Shoreview Community Center - Wedding Reception

We rented the Shoreview Community Center (Shoreview Room - Summer Package) for our wedding reception. The venue (Shoreview Room) and summer package (Pavilion, Deck, & Fountain) were amazing and a perfect fit for all of our event needs. Kirby was excellent to work with - She was extremely communicative/responsive, clear, and consistent with all of the rental amenities and venue expectations. Additionally, Kirby and the community center staff were extremely supportive in providing all information and assistance needed both prior to and during the day of the event. We would without hesitation utilize and recommend the Shoreview Community Center for hosting future events.

Place was great and at a great price. A little hard to get in touch with someone that works there because you have to constantly leave a message and wait for them to get back to you. They usually get back to you within a day though. Great place to rent out though.

We were limited on locations we could hold our reception because of the size of our wedding. The site accomodated our large wedding and provided good service. We would have preferred a more intimate setting, but intimate is tough when you have 300 plus people sitting down for dinner. Dinner took longer than we were expecting and the dance was delayed somewhat, but overall a good experience.
