I am soo happy I chose to have my wedding at the convention center!! We had the ceremony on the floating stage and reception on the roof deck, it was beautiful and the events flowed flawlessly. We had ushers, security, a wedding coordinator, catering manager, and MORE people to help. The food was excellent and the venue was gorgeous on the river!!! Loved it all!!

The staff at the convention center were wonderful to us. We were married on the roof deck. It is pricey, but it was worth it. They did all the set up needed, they were available to help us or answer any questions whenever we needed it, they were friendly and prompt, and the venue was amazing. All of our guests agreed and my husband and I couldn't be happier!

I booked the Spokane Convention Center Floating Stage and Roof Deck for my wedding ceremony and reception venue. It could not have been more beautiful! I was blown away by the scenery, the professionalism of the staff the day-of, and the food was delish. The only complaint I have is that the (cheapest) kegs were $400/each, and I was bummed we couldn't have a sparkler exit but I understand that was due to city laws. Other than that, I was beyond thrilled with how my wedding turned out, greatly in part due to the Convention Center! :)

The Convention Center exceeded our expectations on almost every count. We had an early summer Sunday brunch wedding with the ceremony and reception on the rooftop.
Note: We hired an external day-of coordinator, who liaised with the venue on our behalf from about a month prior to the wedding. Undoubtedly, the coordinator shares credit for a relatively flawless day.

The food was wonderful and reasonably priced. The catering manager worked with the chef to create a custom menu to our exact specifications. As foodies, we were frankly a little nervous about having to use the in-house catering, but we couldn’t have been happier with the quality, presentation, or price of the meal. The actual bar was also stocked to our specifications, including a custom bloody mary and mimosa bar.

We received a promotional discount on top of the non-Saturday price for the venue rental, but even without the discounts, we thought the CC offered a good value considering all the amenities. That said, we did opt to upgrade to the “VIP” china and silver for $3.75/person, because the standard CC china was unappealing. We also rented linens from an external vendor because our day-of coordinator told us the CC linens aren’t floor-length. These are two relatively minor cosmetic upgrade to the standard, all-inclusive amenities.

Our CC event coordinator was friendly, helpful, and professional. He responded to email inquiries promptly and thoroughly, and agreeably met every request we threw at him. The service staff day-of was professional, friendly, and unobtrusive.

Our only real complaint was that communication with the catering manager was a bit of a struggle. Our emails reportedly ended up in her spam folder most of the time, and thus went unanswered, but we learned to work around it by following emails with phone calls. Communication lag aside, she was helpful, flexible, detail-oriented, and accommodating.

Overall, we’re very happy with our decision to go with the CC.

We got married on the roof deck. They were wonderful! Responded quickly to my emails most of the time. Didn't give the full 5 because there were some times close to the wedding that it took them a little longer to get back to me which made me nervous. Also if you use this roof deck venue make sure you lock the bridal room. We had numerous staff walk in on us while getting ready...luckily we were basically dressed each of the five times this happened. (Dock on professionalism). Overall we were very happy and even with those few flukes still would not have changed our venue. Would never have imagined changing our venue. It was perfect. Beautiful!

They responded very quickly and were always very positive. My biggest complaint was they don't have a place for the groom and the groomsmen. I had 20+ people in the bride's room!!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
