We got to tour the venue with Netty and she is amazing. The venue is beautiful and it includes a lot of perks for the price. Loved this place!

The most beautifully perfect day!
It has been a little over a week since our Wedding Day and we are so overwhelmed with joy! When we got engaged and started to look at venues, it didn’t take long to choose one after seeing Regal Ballroom. I knew a few people who got married there and wanted to go and see it for myself. Immediately when I walked in and was greeted by Chris, his hospitality shined through. He walked me through the newly renovated lobby into the Grand Ballroom. Complete with high ceilings, stunning chandeliers and unique characteristics, I knew this was going to be our wedding venue! Throughout the booking process; Chris & Netty were extremely responsive to any questions that I had. It was also great because with our busy schedules, they take care of all the small details that you don’t even think of! Now to the food, which was amazing. It’s hard to catch your breath that day, but they put food in the wedding suite so that you don’t have to go up to the stations. The staff was so friendly and attentive and all of our guests kept mentioning that throughout the night. Netty never let me go without a drink and she and Chris kept checking on my husband and I all throughout the night. The atmosphere was insanely gorgeous, and the cheesesteaks to go were appreciated by all on the way out. The Regal Ballroom is a hidden gem. When it comes time to choose a venue for your big day, you have to go with Regal Ballroom, I cannot say enough wonderful things about this venue!!
I can't say enough about the treatment that staff at Regal Ball show their vendors. We are so blessed in having such an amazing relationship with them. First Class from start to finish. It begins with the valets and continues with servers. All the way up to the fabulous manager and Owner of the Regal. If they treat the vendors great, just imagine how they will treat you and your guests.
The Regal Ballroom is one of our favorite places to work! The Ballroom is very elegant and we love the backdrop it provides for our photography, and the atmosphere it provides for the party-goers. Not to be overlooked, the food at Regal Ballroom is phenomenal! Everyone is very professional and friendly, and we would recommend the Regal Ballroom to anyone looking for their wedding or event venue!
