We had our wedding at the Palace Theater in May 2022 after postponing from 2021 due to covid. It was the best day ever and 100% worth the wait! Audra made the entire planning process easy and worked with us to make the day just as we wanted it. On the day of, Audra and her team coordinated everything beautifully - set up, decor, all the personalized touches around the theater, and kept the bridal party, family, vendors, and guests in line! Everyone is still talking about how stunning and unique the venue was. I cannot recommend the Palace Theater enough!

Wedding Ceremony & Photos
I can’t even express through words how amazingly beautiful it was to have our wedding ceremony & photos at The Palace! The price was less than I expected and they literally assisted with everything!! There were our photos on screen in the main foyer, the marquee outside of the palace, it was truly beautiful!! The sample photos were amazing in on the stairs and the theatre. I would highly recommend anyone looking for a venue to consider The Palace.

A Royal Wedding!
Where to begin! As a dance and theater person myself, as soon as I found out the Palace hosts weddings, I knew we must have our wedding here. It’s a beautiful theater even without any additional decorations. Audra was so incredibly helpful throughout the planning process and was very accommodating when we had to change our date due to the pandemic. She’s extremely organized and having done so many weddings prior to our own, her expertise was very evident. She patiently answered all questions we had throughout the planning process and made recommendations of other vendors.
On our wedding day, Audra, Katie, and all other staff worked tirelessly to make sure all our visions were carried out and things went so smoothly. She even helped bustle my dress when we were having some trouble! Best coordinator ever! If you love a beautiful venue and amazing staff, don’t hesitate to book your wedding at the Palace. We felt like royalty and had the best day!

Absolutely Amazing!
My wife and I got married here on March 7th, 2020 and I have to say, this was by far the best experience I could have ever imagined! My wife was actually the one who found this place and after sharing the images, I was already sold. THEN, a few weeks later, my mother, my best man and I visited the space and it was absolutely breathtaking! From the variety and quantity of spaces, to the overall Royal aura it exudes even to the various amenities the space provides, it is quite the perfect venue for a wedding.
Many of our guests felt like it was an experience. To walk up to the venue seeing our names and our pictures on the screen, to have gotten their ticket and program at the ticket booth, to be escorted to their seats, to see the groom, parents, and bridal party enter from the rear of the foyer and then, to seeing the bride walk down the stairs, which lead them to the 2nd floor of the mezzanine for cocktail hour, finally to be seated for dinner, the guests were in awe the whole time. Every where they looked, there was something notable to pay attention to, be it the architecture or be it the people.
Audra and her team were incredible to work with! She was very detailed, very thorough, and made sure we got to see every corner of the space! I even brought my wife there 2 weeks before the ceremony to finally see the space and while Audra was busy working an event, she still made time to come over and meet my wife, and then proceeded to explain many of the particulars she explained to me back in July of 2019 when I visited the space. She was very thoughtful and it also was an additional confirmation that we chose the right place and decided to work with the right people.
I would recommend this space to anyone! We loved it so much!!! Thank you Audra and everyone responsible for making the best day of our lives that much more memorable!

Best Day Ever!
On August 10, 2019, I married my best friend. We selected the Palace Theater because of the uniqueness. Our 200 plus guests were impressed with the beauty and the accessabilty of most areas of the Palace. The staff were awesome. With Audra keeping me on track all the way up to the day of, then Lisa, Katy, and Dave just to name a few, kept us sane the day of. When we lost things the staff would find them, when we forgot something they reminded us. Although the day did not go exactly as planned the staff assisted us in making our day perfect. Palace staff Rock!

Breathtaking Wedding At The Palace
The Palace Theater staff led by Audra Petrucelli was absolutely incredible during our wedding process. We love Audra and are so thankful to have had her in charge of our day. They were accommodating to our needs and made sure that every request was taken care of. Their professionalism, responsiveness, and attention to details was absolutely perfect. We are so happy with their service. The volunteer staff that worked our wedding were also top notch. Every one of our guests can not stop talking about how accommodating and friendly the workers at the wedding were. They were shocked to know that they were volunteers. They smiled the entire night and truly made our guests feel taken care of and comfortable in the space. Dave, who runs the crew for the stage was fantastic. He made sure that every detail of our vision came to life. Audra and Dave make the perfect team. They work so well together and truly work with each other to make sure all aspects of the wedding flow perfectly. We used every space of the theater that day and our guests loved everything about our day. We are so happy we had our wedding here. We are forever grateful to them for making our day one we will never forget.

We couldn't be happier with The Palace Theater as our wedding venue. I didn't want to get married in a venue that is just a cookie cutter wedding venue so this was the perfect choice for us. Everyone is still talking about how beautiful the venue is and how unique our wedding was.
Audra was beyond helpful on the wedding day and especially on the lead up to the wedding. We went into this knowing absolutely nothing about weddings and how things were supposed to flow. Audra was able to help with every aspect of that and was always very helpful and kind in answering our numerous emails.
The wedding day went flawlessly with the help of Audra and everyone else at the venue. I can't recommend The Palace Theater enough, they made our day perfect.

There is no other venue that compares to the Palace Theater for a wedding. Our guests were amazed at the grand feeling of the venue as well as how they were able to walk around the theater to take in the space. The space also made for some breathtaking pictures of our bridal party. Along with the beauty of the Palace it is also a versatile space which can be adapted to fit the needs of any wedding. With about 200 people at our wedding we were able to utilize both the upper and lower lobbys for seating so that guests were comfortable and not squished at one level. It also allowed for our guests to move about the theater and to view the dance floor (which was the main foyer) at a higher level. It did not matter where our guests were seated because once the dance floor opened up people were either dancing, looking down on the dance floor from the balcony or standing along the stairs to get a glimpse of what was going on. Along with the beauty of the Palace the staff was outstanding as well. Audra was there for anything that was needed and would respond to emails and phone calls within a day. As the wedding got closer you could see her work her magic as she seamlessly coordinated with our vendors to make sure that the event went according to plan. Because she knows the space inside and out she also gave us great design ideas to make sure that there was no detail that was overlooked. If you think that you might like the Palace for your wedding email Audra and get a tour, you will fall in love and will have the wedding of your dreams.
