They did fabulous job.

I am really amazing how they set up all the chairs and tables and make sure how I want it. They’re very helpful and respectful as well responsive to double check how I want it. It’s very beautiful big space for everyone and the children.

Jeff was great to work with!! He provided our music for the ceremony and reception, I had some different picks for ceremony music but he was able to get those songs for us. Jeff did everything we asked and more, it was a great reception and dance!

Bright / benton wedding reception

Jeff and Casey were great to work with. They were patient and helpful every step of the way. We really felt like it was important to them that our wedding reception went well. Max did a great job of helping the night of the big event. They had everything arranged just how we had asked. they arranged the tables so that we could all sit together without feeling cramped. There was plenty of room to walk around and talk with people, and the dance floor could hold us all. We are very thankful that we entrusted The Gala with our important event. Thank you, Rob Benton

Booked elsewhere but Jeff is AMAZING!

In the end we decided to book elsewhere but after several tours with Jeff @ The Gala I will forever be grateful for him! He is truly the nicest guy to work with. They offer A TON of options to customize the space and make it super easy to work within your budget!

If you are looking for a place to tour in Lincoln, check out The Gala!

We attended a wedding here and the staff members were very disorganized and rude. We asked the bar staff to change the channel on the television and they rudely said "We are too busy for that." However, there were only three people at the bar at the time. At one point, the wedding stopped hosting wine, but we did not know that, so when we went to ask for a glass, they rudely said, "We will have to charge you for that." The temperate was way too cold in the building and everyone was freezing, but the staff would not adjust the thermostat.

There were so many issues with our reception it makes me want to cry thinking about them. The phone was never answered, in fact if I would not have had Jeff's personal number I would not have had my walk through before the wedding. He called to try and change the walk through 2 hours before we finally had it scheduled. They only had one bartender set to staff when the reception started and someone from the wedding party helped serve the WARM beer because they "forgot" to put it on ice. We also paid for unlimited pop for our guests and they were charging. The bar staff was so rude they actually made me cry. They kept threatening to shut the bar down because people were taking drinks outside on the patio. Mind you they only had two people working the whole event. One of the bar tenders slammed the door in my face when I went to get people to come back inside, The DJ lost our CD with the slide show and we had to send someone across town to get the other copy. Jeff never responded to get things picked up and when he finally did he changed the time 20 minutes before we were set to arrive.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
