If I could go back I would choose The Grand over and over for my venue location. They are absolutely amazing and take the stress out of everything for the day of your wedding. You have to use their list of caterer's and DJ's which at first, I was upset that I was limited to their options, but after some of my friends spent many hours trying to find a caterer, DJ, and baker I knew my life was much easier with their limited options. It took the stress of researching and comparing pricing out of the equation. They responded to all of my questions and were very flexible with all of my requests. They are a family run business and I would recommend The Grand to anyone who is having a wedding in the future.

The Grand is such an amazing place to have a wedding or any event! It's beautiful and the staff is so accommodating, helpful, and so easy to work with. I had no worries when planning my wedding. I would recommend The Grand to anyone that is looking for a nice, classy, beautiful and amazing Venue! I didn't feel like I had to spend my money on making it look nice the Grand is very well decorated and just beautiful without having to do much to it at all. 5 stars from me!
