The Grand Reviews

The Grand was a perfect spot for my baby shower. Everything is gorgeous inside! Walls and trim painted white with gold chandeliers - matches any theme. Very spacious!

The Grand was fantastic with helping provide a great wedding experience. The food was amazing! My only complaint was not having enough time to enjoy it more. Jillian was great and flexible about scheduling needs. The venue pricing was so reasonable compared to other venues in the area.

We got married on 09-30-2023 and it was the best day ever! Jillian, the coordinator made our day run smooth and I felt at ease! The venue is beautiful and made for such a great wedding. The food was phenomenal (our guests still talk about the risotto!) The servers and bartender were so great and catered to everything! Truly the best day and one we will always remember!

We got married August 26th, 2023 and I could not have had a better wedding experience than I did with The Grand. Jillian is AMAZING and so sweet. Her communication was fantastic and even the day of at zero hours she was available for questions. The venue is absolutely beautiful and perfect for what we imagined. Our pictures looked like we went to multiple different sites to take photos. That is how unique the venue is. We are still hearing rave reviews from our guests about the food as well! If I could give them more than five stars I would.

I hosted a private dinner for my husband and I to celebrate our one-year wedding anniversary two weeks ago. We dined in the Assessor's Room on the second floor. To say we were impressed would be an understatement. The team at The Grand always goes above and beyond. Jillian, the coordinator, is an absolute delight! She was communicative, professional and incredibly helpful from day one. We curated the perfect menu for the event, including a lovely bottle of wine. She answered all of my questions in a timely manner and went above and beyond to ensure our dinner was special.

Chef Jamie cooked our meal, and it was delicious. We had four courses and left with plenty of food for the next day. We enjoyed the braised short ribs and airline chicken coq au vin. Both were fall-off-the-bone tender and made for great leftovers. The star of the show for me was the chocolate chip bread pudding. I still dream about it! (Everything was so good, I didn't take any photos of the food.)

Chris, Jillian and the entire team at The Grand make you feel special. We were married with The Grand at the historic Lake County Courthouse in November 2022; it felt like our wedding day magic was still in the building with us.

Outside of our wedding and anniversary dinner, I have attended various events hosted by The Grand. The food is always delicious, and the service is always spot on. If you're looking for a venue to host your next event, The Grand is it!

We had our daughter's sweet 16 party at the Grand and the experience was excellent. The staff was attentive and friendly plus the they had a great selection of food options to choose from. The package we choose couldn't have been more delicious. Overall, the party was a success and my daughter was completely happy. We strongly recommend booking the Grand for everything!

My husband and I cannot find the words to describe how truly grateful we are that we celebrated our big day at The Grand. The venue itself is everything we could have ever asked for with so much history and beauty within. But there is so much more that contributes to a beautiful wedding that the venue itself. From seamless communication, to making my detailed requests happen, to the amazing staff who served us on the day of- you guys truly have it all. We cannot thank The Grand enough for making our big day a success and we will forever cherish the memories made that night at The Grand. We highly recommend other couples to host weddings / events at this beautiful venue.

The staff from day one all the way through the wedding was first class. We had such a great experience. The food was best in class and of you just can’t beat the classic beauty of the building itself.

Professional and classy and we would not change a thing about the process from A to Z. Thank You for creating a wonderful experience for our daughter and new son in law.

The Grand had excellent customer service when it came to our needs for our school Christmas Program. The food was good, service was great, and families had a wonderful time. It was a big enough space for what needed it for!

From start to finish, the Grand was a 5 star experience! Would highly recommend to future couples thinking of having a GRAND event

I cannot recommend The Grand enough. After having to cancel our wedding in 2020 due to Covid shutting everything down just weeks before our wedding (at a different venue) we were unsure of when, or where our wedding would happen. Fast forward to Spring of 2021, things were starting to open up again and we wanted to be married. The Grand had opened not long before our wedding and I reached out to them asking if they were accepting weddings. We set up a meeting and fell in love. 5 weeks later we were married. I never could have imagined planning a wedding for a second time at a whole new venue but everyone at The Grand made the entire process seamless, especially Stacey! She was amazing and we loved her. Our wedding day was a dream. We still get compliments from people telling us that our wedding was so beautiful and that the food was the best wedding food that they have ever had. We went with a more non-traditional option and had chicken and waffles and the bourbon glazed pork cutlet with comfort food sides. We loved how many menu options we had. Our menu fitted us so much as a couple and the foods that we enjoy. The staff was so attentive and just amazing. I have only great things to say about our experience with The Grand and recommend it to everyone we know!

If you’re looking for an “all in one” wedding venue where you can be there from the morning getting ready time through last call like me, this was the perfect place! Really for the vibe I was going for and the food was awesome.

We got married on 12-03-2023. The entire building is a dream. Jillian helped us organize the wedding we always wanted in a very short time (4 months!). We appreciate that she was able to fit everything within our budget. We had an intimate ceremony followed by a reception in the Assessor's Room. Our family still talks about how great the food was. They have a few different options available to celebrate ceremonies and rooms for events.
