    Great Wedding Reception!!

    Living in California it was hard to figure out a good wedding reception after our Venetian ceremony. Wedding wire suggested the Grand Lux Cafe. I informed my coordinator about my interest and Rich reached out immediately. He was so patient with my gazillion questions and accommodating to everything I wanted to do. Having never eaten at the restaurant I was a little nervous, but he helped me pick out the menu. The day of went so smoothly!! Everybody raved about the food and left stuffed! Many people took home the left over appetizers. The service was top notch. I heard from our guests that they accommodated their preferences without any issue. We weren’t able to do an open bar and decided on two alcoholic beverages per adult. I was honestly stressed somebody would mess up and we’d get overcharged. Thankfully there were no issues with this! The private room itself was gorgeous and went with our color scheme. When it was over the wait staff had already washed our cake serving kit and placed it back in the box. They also helped us pack up all our items. Not enough stars to describe the service! We had 40 guests and brought in a DJ. We had an arch brought in from our ceremony and they accommodated this easily for us. You also can't beat the price for a wedding reception! Our reception was less money than our 10 minute ceremony at the Venetian! We were overjoyed with the way everything turned out. Highly recommend!

    We has our reception for 38 at Grand Lux Cafe in the private room at the Palazzo. Rich was amazing! He made everything seem so simple. Planning a wedding long distance meant alot of emails. He was always really responsive and made everything seem easy for them to do. When we met him in person prior to the reception, he is a genuinely good guy! He made us feel welcome and put the focus on having a great reception, not increasing the bill. Our event went off without a hitch! Our guests are still talking about all the food we had served, especially the Asian Nachos! We had enough room for dancing, toasts and for everyone to have an amazing time without breaking the budget. Thank you so much Rich!

    We rented the venue for our wedding "reception" dinner. Rich, Karen and the rest of the crew made our day so special and it ran so smoothly. Everyone we dealt with at this venue was so pleasant, professional, and the food was amazing!! We rented out the Private Dining Room at the Palazzo for our small group of 25 and it was perfect for us. We had 3 guests who were under 3 and they were able to run around, play with their toy cars on the ground, and keep themselves occupied while the adults had dinner and did a little socializing during the reception dinner. The servers didn't fuss one bit about the children playing around. We chose this venue for the affordability of a private venue and the huge menu (for the 25 of us). We also loved the ambiance and decor throughout the restaurant.

    My wife and I held our wedding welcome reception/rehearsal dinner in the private room of Grand Lux Cafe Palazzo on 11/13/14 and we couldn't be more thrilled with our decision! The food and service were FANTASTIC and working with the Director of Events Rich Loska was a true pleasure. When you host your event here.. order the filet mignon.. our 32 guests are still raving about it!

    Grand Lux Palazzo is a gem and not only would we recommend it for a rehearsal dinner, but it would be a wonderful venue for your reception as well. ( we had 34 total people with a DJ and there was MORE than enough room for dancing/entertaining/ etc. Just a great place!!!!

    We held our dinner reception in the Private room; I customized the room by adding table overlays and runners, vases with LED candles, and mercury glass votives. They print out customized menus with the Bride and Grooms name and the menu selections. Rich Loska the General Manager was really easy to work with, and Karen the banquet coordinator was excellent. We went to Vegas in June to do a tasting before selecting our menu, the food was excellent and portions are huge we had 4 appetizers, salad and the main entrée plus bread and beverages. For the price and the portions sizes I would highly recommend this venue there is a $1500 minimum for the private room. Karen the coordinator asked me how I wanted my tables and she handled the décor which exceeded my expectations. The room was absolutely gorgeous, and the service was impeccable. My guests are still talking about how good the food was and the portion sizes.

    The room was private and set up to allow for maximum interaction between our guests and at the same time allow for enough open space for the kids to be able to dance and expend energy. The food was incredible and the wait staff were very attentive and saw to our every wish. Our guests were extremely impressed and thanked us many times for an amazing dinner! Package was affordable while still being elegant.

    We rented the private room of Grand Lux located inside the Palazzo. The food and drinks were amazing and the private room was beautiful! We only had 2 servers and we were a bit worried about 30ppl but they ran like a well oiled machine! They let my mom and friends in an hour before to decorate and even had some people help them. Rich was so nice to work with and our day of contact Karen was a blessing!

    We had our reception for 45 people at the Grand Lux Cafe - Palazzo which has the exact same menu as the one in the Venetian but offers a completely private room, whereas the Venetian has a semi-private room. The Palazzo location was just perfect for a smaller wedding reception as our group was not swallowed by an gigantic banquet hall and we didn't need to spend any extra money on decorations as the private room was richly decorated with stained glass and very swanky wall decorations. Our family raved about the menu of which we managed to keep very affordable for a Las Vegas hotel reception at just $54/person including softdrinks, tea, coffee.

    One aspect that I simply loved and I think our family really appreciated was that we didn't have to pre-order any of the entrees but rather everyone got to pick from one of three entrees we selected in advance so if you felt like eating a steak the night of the wedding, that's what you got! The portions also were extremely generous as they always are at Grand Lux Cafe. They don't skimp just because it's a big group!!! Everyone left totally satisfied and stuffed to the gills after a buffet of four different kinds of appetizers, a huge plate of salad, and a hubcap-sized main dish!

    Rich, the Events Manager, was so friendly and helpful. We arranged all the details over the phone and by email. The first and only time that we actually met was the day before the wedding to give him all the favors and cake topper! And everything was exactly as he promised when we arrived for the reception.

    I highly recommend giving Grand Lux Cafe a try for a wedding reception. As I said, the private room is just beautifully decorated and we fit our 45 person reception just perfectly with for a cake table and plenty of room to dance.

    I planned everything over the phone. I was extremely pleased with the menu, We were given multiple choices for our guests. They had printed out menus with our names on them for our settings. We were able to have a cake brought in which not alot of places do. Food was excellent and well portioned. Price was reasonable. They had an area in the back set up that was quite nice away from the crowd since it was a Friday night and busy.

    My husband and I loved our reception at Grand Lux Cafe inside The Palazzo. We had 60 guests who attended our destination wedding. We worked with Rich to create our menu. We had appetizers and a sit down dinner. The appetizers were made shortly before the reception began and the main entrees were prepared as our guests ordered from our personalized menu. This worked out perfectly for my guests with food allergies, who could personalize their meals as they ordered them. Our guests are still raving about the food! We had the private dining room for 3 hours and when our time was up they still allowed us to stay an extra 30 minutes to pack up decorations and say our goodbyes to the guest. We only had to provide a deposit prior to the wedding reception. We had to give them our menu 1 month prior to the wedding, a final count 8 days prior to the wedding, and we paid for the remaining reception balance at the end of the dinner. We were provided with a wireless microphone, projection screen, projector, iPod music connection to speakers, and computer connections to the projectors. You had to bring your own computer and iPod. The only complaints we had were the fact that our friends couldn't decorate the room until an hour before the reception and since we had 60 guests there was no room for us to dance. We would definitely suggest Grand Lux to everyone.

    Outstanding! The food portions were huge, and soooo delicious! We were able to select our salad and menu options up to 3 items. The presentation was amazing and the room setting was romantic and beautiful.

    After we got married at the Venetian, we ate with all our people at the Grand Lux Cafe. Absolutely delicious and you get HUGE portions for the price! Everyone was so impressed! We went back for our 1 year anniversary--still wonderful!

    Sad to leave a less than glowing review

    Sad to leave a less than glowing review but we emailed Chelsie/Rich and the team here twice to express the issues we had on our wedding night with the services at this venue and have not received any response whatsoever. No apology or acknowledgement at all. Fortunately we were able to make things work but although we were told multiple times that the team here would setup, when a couple of my friends who went ahead to give the setup a “once over” got there they had to scramble to do the entire setup themselves as nothing had been done and the waiters said no photos were shared with them from our coordinators. The waiters also did not collect our drink tickets (which were our coordinators idea) and specifically turned them down when guests attempted to turn them in for a drink, which resulted in nearly 1.5 the amount of drinks we should have been paying for. Lastly, during our meeting the day before where we provided all the details of the setup and our night as well as the pics, etc. we showed our phones when we verified that we would be hooking up to the sound system and were assured they would work and were the most common type (which makes sense seeing as they’re iPhones). Then on the day of the adaptor was nowhere to be found and we had to scramble to get our music downloaded on my father in laws phone, which fortunately is older. On a happier note the food was all very good and the room was very pretty.
