Best Venue Ever

I honestly could go on and on about the Veranda and their amazing team. Chanel, Kim, and Jessica and the the rest of the Veranda crew are incredible and went above and beyond in helping make our day the magical event it was. I could not have done any of it without them and you will not regret choosing them for your venue! ❤️

All I have to say is having our special day at The Veranda was more perfect than I could have imagined. First off, working with Stacey and Jessica was great. These ladies did everything to make our day go seamless. The venue was gorgeous and for the price you pay, what a value! I had so many compliments from my guests about how beautiful and unique the grounds were. I couldn't have better things to say about this place. A big thank you to the Veranda!

The Veranda was a dream to work with! The venue itself is gorgeous with so much beautiful scenery. Stacey and Jessica were so professional, friendly, and accommodating. Emails were answered promptly and they really helped us plan the perfect daytime wedding and brunch menu. Our wedding went so smoothly and the service was top notch. Our guests raved about the venue, food, and service. The staff at the Veranda just went above and beyond to take care of us on our special day and we couldn’t be more grateful!

This was the absolute best venue we could have asked for! It had everything we ever dreamed of to make our big day special. From the beautiful grounds to the amazing and personable staff, we had the best experience! Our guest list was 250 and it rained on our wedding day and the staff still made it seem like everything was supposed to happen the way it did. They moved the wedding under The Veranda so seamlessly and were consistently making sure that every move they made was exactly what my husband and I wanted. They took initiative and worked their hearts out to make sure our wedding day was a day we would never forget! From Jessica who was our main contact at The Veranda and Spice of Life, to our wedding coordinator, Stacey Garcia, we felt like we were working with family throughout the entire process. We would highly recommend The Veranda for a large wedding, small wedding, business event, school function, etc. We loved everything about it!

We were married at The Veranda in February 2017. We had an amazing experience! Anytime that I emailed, a response was sent quickly. The food was fantastic, the staff was very pleasant and accommodating. Everyone commented on how beautiful the wedding venue was and how everything flowed perfectly. I would highly recommend this venue if you are looking!

I can not say enough about the Veranda. I was married there in October, it was beautiful. First off, the venue itself is absolutely gorgeous. Therefore, you can save on décor because it comes free of cost. We had about 100 people, went over the number and without hesitation the staff accomadated them, reassuring me, "no big deal" and relieving added stress on my wedding day. The staff is amazing, and make you feel like this is their wedding too and give you 150 percent . I was allowed to walk through a couple of different times, because of family excited to see it without feeling like I was an "annoying bride" The tasting prior to the wedding was five stars. I took my best girlfriend who is a major foodie and she raved about it. I thought there would be food to sample, but it was a sit down wine and dining experience.
My guests said BEST WEDDING EVER and if they only knew how much I didn't have to spend in comparison to other venues, this one is higher quality, and beauty for a steal. I was reading some of the reviews on here, and felt obligated to post because some people are obviously difficult to please NO MATTER what you do. I feel a personal obligation to post my experience because it was one of the best days of my life and I could of not experienced it without the Veranda, The staff, Chef and all the hard work they did.
Thank You veranda. You do make brides dreams come true without the cost, and the stress.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

I have been very fortunate to be able to collaborate with The Veranda on a good number of ocassions and what has impressed me the most is not the incredible attention to detail, the tasteful choice on the decorations, the professionalism in their set up an organization or the way the Venue always looks amazing but seeing that despite all the things that need to be coordinated they always keep their clients at the top of the list making sure their needs are taken care of. I strongly encourage anyone, before making any decisions to set up an appointment and meet with them, I'm sure you'll understand why I think so highly about them.
