We had our wedding here in October and I cannot even put it into words how perfect our day was. Mykenzie & the staff had everything spot on, and the food was to die for!!! I can’t imagine having our wedding anywhere else- I am so thankful we chose The Bend Event Center!!

Dream come true!
Our daughter and son in law wanted a wedding venue that would accommodate all of their guests in a quaint and classy venue while giving the luxury of staying at the Bend properties hotel the Hyatt House and Hyatt Place! Their guests felt pampered and treated by the hotel, the bar and the reception hall in their time sharing this beautiful wedding day! The food was delicious, the wait staff and professional servers and event coordinator Mykenzie were everything we could’ve asked for! The pictures turned out stunning both outside for the “first looks” and “sunset time for two” with the bride and groom as well as the shots inside and among the beautiful room, hallways and lighting on the dance floor! Thank you for working with our bride Annie and our new son Ian to make their day one we will all remember!! 💕💍

Absolutely incredible!
5 stars aren’t enough for The Bend! When I came across their website last year, I knew it was everything we wanted in a venue before it was even built. Seeing it come to life, it was more than we ever expected! The views are beautiful, the windows and lighting give it the perfect ambiance for a wedding. Our original plan was to have our ceremony out on Murphy park and reception inside. The weather however had other plans and we decided to move it inside. Honestly, it was PERFECT inside! The food was amazing, the drink menu was perfect, the staff was so kind and helpful. Mykenzie was my life saver and right hand woman from day 1 of meeting with her. She went above and beyond for us over the past year of planning. We cannot recommend The Bend enough! Thanks again!
