Amazing! Great experience overall!

All the staff, event directors/coordinators were amazing! Highly recommend utilizing their all day coordinator services (additional charge), made my wedding day a whole lot easier. Food/linens/chairs/tables/bridal room all included. Beautiful place for wedding photos as well! Optional charge for utilizing the courtyard for cocktail hour, but not that expensive. Overall everything was amazing!

Wedding of My Dreams

The staff at The Phoenician Ballroom was Amazing from the very first meeting. We began planning 1 year ahead and they always made sure we were informed and were consistent across the board. Kim & Osbaldo were the Best Team and I appreciate all of the work they put in.

In addition to their Amazing Team, we chose this location because of the all inclusive package options. We didn't need outside food vendors, security, bartenders, linens or tables. It was so much easier to have them take care of it all. We loved the location of the ceremony in their courtyard and the reception inside. Everything was Amazing!

Amazing!!!!

Our wedding was PERFECT. Not ONE thing went wrong- all because of the staff here. All night they were running around and making sure everything was taken care of. When planning, they made sure they got my vision 100% correct and asked me for inspiration boards. Any idea that I had, they worked to make it possible. From day 1 to the final day- they were amazing. I’d recommend this place a million times over!!

Osvaldo and his team did an amazing job!! From day one they worked with our time, our budget, and helping with wedding inspiration. Communication and a very family-orientated environment.

Wedding hall/caterers

The Phoenician was great to host our wedding, they went above and beyond to make sure we were happy. The food was great, coordinators, setup, service. Only issue was the bar ran out 0f some of the favorite guest liquors but thats only because we had heavy drinkers but everything was perfect!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
