Best day ever-june 8th, 2024

Our wedding day was so magical thanks to the Columns. The food was incredible from the appetizers, to the full course dinner, to the late night Buffalo station. Jessica & her team really CARE about making your day special and are there every step of the way. They are so kind, professional, and amazing to work with. People have been raving about our wedding for weeks now! The outdoor cocktail area is beautiful and the inside venue transitions into a classy reception room. We loved all of the details of our special day and Columns did amazing at making it all come together! Thank you again! Please see our attached photos!

Best venue and Service hands down

The Columns Is not only a gorgeous Venue inside and out but the entire staff is fantastic, friendly, organized and helpful! The price we paid was fully worth everything thats included in the package price! The food was absolutely delicious all my guests couldn't say enough about it. If I had to do everything again Id still choose them and would definitely use them for any future events.
