My wife and I would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to Alyssa Ross and The Grand Marquise Ballroom Team for allowing us to celebrate our wedding at your beautiful venue. From the moment we walked in, we knew it was the perfect place for such a special day. The elegant atmosphere, attention to detail, and warm hospitality created the most unforgettable setting for us and our guests.
So many of our family and friends expressed how much they loved the space and how truly stunning everything looked. We are grateful not only for the beauty of the ballroom but also for the professionalism and kindness of your entire team, who helped make everything run so smoothly.
Thank you again for helping us create memories that we will cherish forever. We are so glad we chose The Grand Marquise Ballroom to begin this new chapter of our lives.
With gratitude,

Our Dreams became true when we said yes to the venue

The Grand Marquise is one of the most beautiful venues both physical and emotionally. The building itself is just immaculate. All of the details from the architecture of the building to the big chandeliers and mirrors that make their room look 10 times bigger. And the beautiful paintings on the ceiling just adds such a beautiful touch. Down to the smallest details in both the groom suite and the bridal suite that just make it feel so homey. The staff was absolutely incredible and treated us with such grace. With this thing you you get so many more perks than you wouldn’t and the other venue. They have both up lighting and down lighting. They have surround systems and one of the best perks is they have a jewelry store connected to their venue that we were able to find the most beautiful setting for my ring and the most awesome ring for my husband. I would absolutely recommend this thing to anybody.

Breathtaking at its Finest

The Grand Marquise Ballroom was the perfect venue for my 50th birthday party. It is elegant and breathtaking. Its grandeur was mesmerizing and left many of my guests and me speechless. The staff was professional, personable and helpful. I am looking forward to returning for my next event.

Vow Renewal Ceremony

Alyssa assisted us with our 35th wedding vow renewal ceremony in April 2024 and I cannot say enough about her support, guidance, follow through and attention to detail. She listened and heard what we were requesting and made the process smooth. Alyssa always responded promptly and she was transparent about what could and could not be offered which is important. This ensures that you do not have not last minute surprises. I would recommend The Grand Marquise Ballroom in Garner, NC. The pictures do not do the venue justice so contact the venue and schedule an appointment so you can see it for yourself. The ballroom is beautiful and doesn't require a lot to enhance the beautify it already has. Also, they have a list of top tier preferred vendors which I highly recommend. The preferred vendors already know the venue, what is expected/required and most if not all have a great working relationship which is always a plus. If you want a fairytale wedding and the experience of a lifetime book The Grand Marquise Ballroom. You won't be disappointed!

This is by far one the best venues in the Triangle area. The staff is professional and they always get the job done. Can't wait to work with them again! Best Donnell Perry Photography
