Stunning Venue!

We had our wedding at Alexandria Ballrooms 8/27/22 and it was a dream come true. We had our ceremony in the King Edward Ballroom and reception in the Palm Court, which are both absolutely stunning rooms. When my husband and I first saw this venue in person, we knew it was the one.

We worked with Jemma (Alexandria Ballrooms management), she is very responsive and accommodating. We had to postpone our wedding twice due to the pandemic, Jemma was so flexible and understanding.

Our wedding day ran very smoothly, Jemma was there to assist. We used the white chiavari chairs and tables which was included in the cost. We had 3 security guards. We also opted to rent the bridal and grooms suites which were spacious and provide a private space for the wedding party prior to the wedding festivities. We also were able to have our wedding rehearsal at the venue the day prior which was awesome to be able to run through the wedding ceremony.

I highly recommend this historic and gorgeous wedding venue!

Beautiful wedding venue!

I’m so happy with our choice to have our wedding here at Alexandria Ballrooms, it was so beautiful! We worked with Jemma, who is the absolute best and always made me feel like family. She was so friendly, accommodating, helpful and responsive throughout the whole planning process. She always went above and beyond and I can tell already that we wouldn’t have this same service with any other venue. Would definitely recommend!

My experience getting married here at The Alexandria Ballrooms was more than I could have ever dreamed of. Needless to say, the venue is just absolutely stunning, a hidden gem.

For me, it was more about the experience itself. I didn't have a full-on planner, although with Jemma's many suggestions Jen So with Campfire Events was so amazing for my day of services campfire-events.com .. Jemma helped me find her along with a few other vendors listed on the preferred vendor list. She always is such a pleasure to speak to and is so responsive, unlike other venues I was initially looking at. Just her service alone was what truly made my experience. I will truly miss working with her.
