With plenty of seating, it's an ideal spot for a quick meeting. (Though I couldn't find a free wi-fi connection.) Aside from that, the majority of patrons are there for the gifts and goods. Cards, clothing, toys, trinkets ... perfect for stocking stuffers. The store also hosts social events - on this particular day is was a girls' night out.

Another first review? BONUS!…read more This store has been around in many incarnations... it started as really just a hallmark store. Then, as it grew and evolved, it's so much more. At any given time you'll find hubby shopping for wife, junior league shopping for future inductee, kids shopping for mom or high school boyfriend for their sweetheart. They've got everything from shoes and purses, to cards and collectibles, to stationary and photo books. And thats not it! Scarves, jewelry, home decor, precious moments, jim shore, religious stuff, the famed painted ponies, clever cowboy chic things, kitchen ware, trendy wallets, etc. and so on. I was in there today and walked out with way too many things... but all of them precious and perfect. Hit them during a sale and you'll go crazy (hint hint: After christmas!) in the very best way.

The two employees that have been there forever are always so helpful. They cut the flowers I bring in and add water to whatever I decide on. Well this time was a different experience. As the young girl rang me up and older lady was standing at the counter and I asked if she can put the flowers in the pot and add the pretty pink bow they always do to complete the look. Well, she yelled at me and said "she can not put the flowers in" here I am thinking maybe due to COVID. But no, she just didn't want to do that for me. I tell her "your employees always do it for me" with this confused look in my eyes (wearing my mask) well she ripped the flowers out of my hands with attitude and walked away. I asked if she was the owner and the you g girl said yes. I was appalled by her customer service. A few minutes later she came back with the teapot and my flowers in her hand and said "i asked all my full time employees if they do this and they all said no!" She hands me my pot and flowers and I in shock!! The young girl that had helped me apologized for the owner as she walked away and closed the door to the back room.

This review is long overdue, but it reflects our honest experience with this venue during our…read morewedding planning and celebration earlier this year. We first visited the venue in early April as one of several potential options for our late May wedding. When we initially called to inquire about pricing, we were informed that those details could only be discussed in person. Given the distance, I asked for at least a general idea of costs. However, Claudia, our point of contact, insisted pricing could only be discussed in person. Despite concerns, we scheduled a visit. Upon arrival, we noticed the parking area was caliche, which seemed unprofessional. There were several dogs on the property, which turned out to be living there. The palm trees were beautiful, but the landscaping was clearly in need of maintenance. The office door was difficult to open, possibly due to structural shifting--an odd first impression. During our consultation, we were quoted $85 per guest (discounted with higher attendance). Flower options were $7,500 for real or $6,500 for artificial. Bartender services were $1,350 (not including alcohol), and coordination was $1,500. There was also a ceremony setup fee of $250 and a $500 overtime charge. Tables, chairs, catering, and decor were included, but catering and bar services could not be replaced with outside vendors. Claudia offered a wooden dance floor "at no cost," which, based on previous reviews, appeared to be a standard sales tactic. She also mentioned a surprise bonus if we booked--which we never received. We decided to proceed with the venue based on the convenience of in-house services and the scenery. Payments were made via Cash App and Zelle to various individuals, which felt disorganized. Taste testing went smoothly, and they were flexible with decoration planning via FaceTime. The Wedding Experience Communication leading up to the event was lacking. The flow of the day was never clearly explained, and we had to follow up repeatedly. On the wedding day, several people acted as "coordinators," creating confusion. Moments before cake cutting, we were told we had to provide our own plates and utensils--this was never communicated. Family had to leave mid-reception to buy them. The floral setup was completed just 10 minutes before the ceremony. Many guests were not served the main course because they weren't in their seats--something we weren't warned about. The bartender left halfway through the night. His replacement admitted he didn't know how to make drinks and said the bartender had gone to the restroom--he never returned. The grass wasn't trimmed, and restrooms were dirty from the start. Some items went missing during setup, and while we reported this, there was no investigation or resolution. For a venue that charges coordination fees, the service was basic at best. Final Thoughts While our night was beautiful in many ways, the disorganization left us and several guests frustrated. It became clear that this is a family-run business operated out of a residence. That alone isn't an issue, but it explains why they require you to use their services, limiting flexibility. After the wedding, we reached out to Claudia with our concerns. She responded three weeks later, citing a vacation. While she acknowledged some issues and apologized, she often offered excuses or counterpoints. In hindsight, we would not book this venue again. Though visually appealing, it is overpriced for the level of service provided. If you're considering this location, I would recommend looking elsewhere. While it may be suitable for photography, it is not ideal for hosting a wedding

The parking area is a bit dark at night but they do have security which kind of makes up for it a bit.

The outside seems to be a bit out of shape but it's an old building so it is what it is. Overall I would prefer going to another venue for any event but this place is still ok for its age.

Not a bad little event center. It's a great place for smaller concerts, shows or events.read more

I said yes, those and green hydrangeas and roses. He repeated it back to me and I said yes. I got a picture of the flowers from my MIL and they used ORANGE gerbera daisies instead of the stargazer lilies. When I called him and said that there weren't any stargazers like he had discussed, he first said I don't remember anything about lilies. Then when I pressed it and repeated back the conversation we had about them, he then said well it wasn't done maliciously. I told him I think this is bad business. He repeated himself that it wasn't done maliciously and he could exchange the flowers my MIL had already received with lilies. Surprised that there was no apology given and that he wouldn't automatically compensate me for their mistake, given that my MIL's bday was yesterday, I told him never mind. I spent $77 on an arrangement of flowers that looks like the $25 bouquet at the local grocery store. A small glass vase doesn't cost over $45. And I live in another state, otherwise I would have bought grocery store flowers for my MIL.
