    I LOVE Glory House

    I used glory house for my wedding and they were amazing!! The food was delicious and they were super professional. They were my favorite vendor by far. Will be visiting JoAnn at her restaurant when I’m on that side of town.

    Great for our wedding

    We worked with Jo Ann at Glory House and our overall experience was great. She worked with us to choose our menu and to fit within our budget. We had several guests comment how good the food was at our wedding!

    Jo Anne is amazing!!! The food was delicious and so reasonably priced. They are open for lunch during the week which makes tasting a ton of different foods so easy. Jo Anne was such a big help, she handled our rentals and sat down with us to do an itinerary so she could make sure everything went correctly on my wedding day. As much as we changed things or the 1000 questions we had, she was very patient and responded immediately. She also was very helpful with the venue we had the wedding at, working with them many times she was able to help us a lot in that department. Glory House was fantastic and I have absolutely no complaints, except that Jo Anne should get paid more because she's so great at what she does!

    Perfect place for a small wedding.
    We were looking for a place that was affordable given we had a three month planning period. We submitted request to three vendors. JoAnn answered first. I guess it was meant to be.

    We wanted one stop shopping to include the ceremony and a reception for 25-40 guests.

    JoAnn was extremely professional. She responded to emails in less than 30 minutes most times and she answered the questions that I had. She also served as the coordinator for our wedding. She was very flexible in working with those in our party who couldn't make the same day rehearsal and either walked them through or talked them through their roles.

    It was an intimate and beautiful ceremony. Our guests were pleased and the photography even mentioned the beauty of this "unassuming venue" tucked away in Old Irving.

    I would recommend Glory House to others.

    My wedding was on April 13th and Glory House owner Jo Ann Goin was really worth every single penny! With Glory House, you get a venue and a coordinator all rolled into a pretty little package. She leaves herself very accessible for any questions you may have and when it comes down to coordinating your ceremony, she just takes care of business. For the bride who doesnt want to have to be the bridezilla on her wedding day and just enjoy it, Jo Ann takes over all the hassle so you can actually enjoy your day! The only criticism I would have comes from my guests and that is that her staff is so super fast and attentive, sometimes their drinks would be on the table, they would leave for a few, and then they would come back and they would be gone. Super professional and courteous woman and she runs an excellent business and her staff is really friendly. I highly recommend this venue to the bride and groom on a budget who don't want to sacrifice quality for their big day! Oh and a word of advice, really consider going with her preferred vendors!! I learned that the hard way and regret that.

    Glory House did an outstanding job at our wedding! I was a little worried because Jo Ann was going to be on vacation on the date of our wedding but things turned out perfect. The Glory House staff worked hard to ensure that our guest were happy and well taken care of. We served blackened chicken, Salisbury steak, baked mac and cheese, black eyed peas and Caesar salad. Everything was amazing! The Salisbury steak was absolutely to die for!!! So good! We served the popular cherry mango punch with rum as our signature drink and it was a crowd pleaser. I would highly recommend Glory House! It’s great food at a reasonable price. Thank you Jo Ann and your wonderful staff for doing such a great job!

    Glory House implemented my wedding with flawness excellence. Jo Ann worked with us to plan and implement our ceremony and reception. Glory House made the process very easy, especially since we needed guidance! This was our first catered event and I don't know whaty we would have done without Glory House! The food was amazing! I would recommend Glory House to anyone looking for a great value with excellent food and customer service!

    Can't say enough good things about this vendor. She gives a free tasting and offers a free appetizer if you book on the day of your tasting. JoAnn, the owner, made herself very available and always answered the phone when I called. Not to mention she is VERY affordable!

    YUMMY! YUMMY! YUMMY! All the guests loved it! Thank you sooo much! It was on time, hot and delicous! Didn't have too much or too little. Had just a little left over to take home so I felt really good they had the right portions down for the right amount of people. Don't want to run out, but don't want to pay for food you didn't have to. It was PERFECT! Thanks!

    Jo Ann and her staff are very helpful! This is a one stop shop, but if you'd like to bring in your own centerpieces/decor you're able to do so! She provided a great custom menu (Carnival theme wedding), DJ, Bartender and ceremony decor (candle/unity candle stands, arch). She's also able to help you find vendors for you flowers, cakes, linens, entertainment.... They're great! I highly recommend Glory House!

    Glory House Catering was wonderful. My husband was worried to do a buffett because he said the food is never tasty. Our food was delicious. Glory House made these bacon wrapped jalapenos that were to die for. The setup was also nice. Glory House was great in setting up two areas; one buffet and an appetizer placement in the gardens we had cocktail hour. They worked well with Events by S&J (my wedding coordinators) in setting up the food tables in the way we had discussed. I would definitely use them again for any other events.

    Jo Ann and her staff at Glory House were top-notch! I had several other meetings with very well-known, high-end caterers in the DFW area, and they either let me meet with an inexperienced sales person or they dropped me as a client at the last minute when a higher-paying job came in. Glory House was the exact opposite. Jo Ann met with me personally, gave me an exact price in the first meeting, and met me at the venue and at the rental shop. Her staff made sure we were always attended to during our reception, bringing us food and drinks, always staying on top of the next item in the itinerary. They were extremely friendly and caring throughout the entire process. Had I not had the terrible experiences with a few of the big-name caterers in the area, I may never have found Glory House. But I am so glad I found them-they made my reception fun and hassle-free!

    We choose Glory House Catering first for the economics. Then I went and tasted the food and I was pleased. Over the course of maybe about 8 months before our wedding when I had signed the contract with them, I would think of questions and emailed or called the owner, Jo Ann Goin, who always promptly answered my questions and helped me with whatever I needed. It is not just about the food. If you find a catering team that helps with the set-up and break-down (not the physical tables and chairs) but the decor and overseeing the orchestration of your reception (along with your band or MC) then you have to know that you can communicate with your caterer and that they are willing to help you, not just serve you food. Glory House does all this. They are an awesome team and the team leader of your party is a very important person. We had an awesome one who I had gotten to know months before our wedding reception night so that helped make us feel comfortable that she would make things run smoothly. Little things that you may not even think about as first time bride and groom (or not familiar with throwing a big bash), they will think of and walk you through. They have the personality that they will tell you as much or as little as you want, if you don't want to be bothered. I liked to be part of all the details so they were very nice with me. Granted, they were the biggest ticket item in our whole vendor list (cost alot of money to feed alot of people) but they worked with us the closest of anyone and I really appreciated the availability that provided of themselves to us in answering questions, etc. I would highly recommend them. I am a real bride. We were married in May 2009 at Texas Discovery Gardens. I have nothing negative to say about Glory House Catering!!!!

    We booked Receptions On The Main approximately a month before my daughter's wedding. Jo Ann Goin, the owner, was very gracious, and provided everything we needed for planning the entire ceremony and reception including appetizers, a full buffet, table and chair cover rentals, flowers, wait staff and an appointed host to organize the event. She also provided referrals for the bar and the D.J.

    All of the guests were very complimentary on the elegance, food, and service from Receptions On The Main. I love the location in the old downtown historic area of Irving. The downtown square is very beautiful and Receptions on the Main caps the ambiance of the Heritage District.

    I would highly recommend Receptions On The Main. Not only was the service and professionalism top notch, the cost was also minimal compared to other venues. I love giving my business to other independent business owners. Jo Ann Goin is one of the best.

    Being an event coordinator I was apprehensive about finding a caterer at the last minute and staying within a lower budget. I assumed I could only have one or the other...GLORY HOUSE DID NOT DISAPPOINT! They were extremely flexible and offered menu suggestions that kept the couple within their specified budget. I was happily surprised by the cost and the food arranged. It looked as if the couple spent much more than $700. JoAnn and her team were considerate and above all professional. I will definitely use them and/or suggest their services in the future. Thanks and many blessing to you!

    Glory House Catering is exceptional and I would recommend it to anyone. The reception hall is elegant and staff is very professional. The owner, Jo Ann, pays attention to every little detail to make sure everything is done and to make sure we were satisfied. My daughter, who is a picky eater, loved the food. I have used this catering company for a business breakfast and a luncheon in the past and everyone loved it.

    There is no possible way our wedding could have been better! The attention to detail shows in JoAnns years of catering experience. Our guests raved and raved over the food, the service and the venue. We can't thank Glory House enough for making our wedding perfect!

    Amazing food and Amazing service! The entire crew came into my wedding and executed like they were marines. I was really nervous about the transition from the ceremony to reception, and they hit a home run.

    Additionally, my husband and I had requested a plate of food be prepared and waiting for us, and they did it. So, unlike many brides who say they never got to eat a bite...I had a whole plate of food, and it was wonderful!

    You can't go wrong with Glory House, and they will be sure to execute to your every wish.

    Glory House was truly a blessing for our wedding day. The entire staff from the very beginning was so great to work with. They helped us in every aspect from planning to final execution. The staff members were always very repsonsive and helpful no matter how small the question. We were completely blown away by how good the food was and we were constantly being told by all of our guests that everything was great. All of this service and quality and they were completely able to stay within our budget. Like a said......truly a blessing! Thanks for everything Glory House.

    Glory House Catering catered my wedding in July 2003 in Waco, TX., I can say that the food was the only thing on that day I did not have to worry about. We had decided on a menu and I changed my mind after a couple of days. I gave them a call to see if it was to late to change the menu and they had no problems with the changes and worked with me on my new menu idea. When I showed up at the reception I was blown away by how beautiful and elegant the food was. They helped my day be even more special. Everything was perfect. I have attend numerous events catered by Glory House Catering and everyone was wonderful. I have refered them to everyone I know.

    I used Glory House to cater my July 12 wedding reception at The Filter Building at White Rock Lake and could not have asked for anything better! Jo Ann is an absolute delight! From the first time I met her, I knew I was in good hands. She made excellent recommendations, was very proactive during the planning process and always offered prompt replies to any requests or questions. During my reception, she took on the role of a coordinator and ensured that everything ran smoothly. On top of all that, the food was DELICIOUS! I had several guests tell me it was the best wedding food they've tasted. I would highly recommend Glory House Catering & Bistro for any event!
