I struggled on how to write this post but it has to be said…read more I urge you to avoid The Lyceum of Galveston for your venue. The venue is gorgeous. And affordable. It was our venue dream come true. The lady who runs the place Christina, started off super sweet and helpful. She asked me on our first visit if I have a day of coordinator. I told her I didn't and she offered to take on the task, she said it's no problem I'd love to help. Great! Wonderful! Our wedding was 10/13. We started setting up at 1:30? All was good she told us she was tired from event they had on 10/12. Our wedding was scheduled from 6-11:00 and then we had until 1130 to clean up. My sister-in-law asked her why the AC wasn't blowing. She replies it's an old building. Then she claims that my sister-in-law qas giving her dirty looks. Christina disappeared. Told my sister-in-law "looks like you've got this" Christina has all the information. Walk order day of schedule. Everything and she vanished To the point where I was texting her to make sure she was okay. She should have been checking on me! My sister-in-law and husband pulled it all together. At the reception. One of the kids spilt a glass of water. Couldn't find Christina or any of the venue staff to clean it up. I had to send my photographer to look for her and ask how do we clean it up so none of my guests slip and fall. After the fake sparkler exit. A couple of our groomsmen were horsing around and stupidly trying touch each other with the hot lighters ‍ Christian BLEW UP and shit down my wedding an hour and a half early. She didn't give myself or my husband the chance to correct the situation. She sent the security office (her husband) to tell our DJ to shut it down. My husband's cousin tried to talk them out of shutting it down. Then the officer went to my husband and started talking crazy about making us leave and being arrested. My husband was pissed. We paid good money for our time there. No one was damaging anything or being disrespectful, until they were shutting us down. As they were literally tossing us out with all my stuff inside, Christina called Galveston County PD and was cussing out my elderly guest telling them to "get the F*** out". Unacceptable She had the county police arrest the groomsman that tried to talk them out of shutting it down buy the DJ. Then she has them arrest my husband on my wedding night. Our DJ is an officer for another precinct and even he said it was ridiculous.

I understand it is supposed to be secluded, but my advice would be to call ahead and talk to someone there who can guide you, because all the county roads show up under different names in the GPS and Internet world. So just call ahead and you'll thank me. Just look for the place you think Mitt Romney might daylight at and you're there. Ok, so now that you're there you can take a deep breath and relax. The people there are really nice and attentive to your needs. Provided you have a need when there is an open bar at the wedding, mariachis, a DJ, and a frickin' ICE CREAM BAR. Not an Ice Cream "Bar" like a rocket pop...but a bar where you can go and load up on as much Ice Cream as you WANT...man...my inner fat kid was sated, you have any idea how hard that is to do?! Awesome idea to whoever came up with that. The outside are where the reception was held was gorgeous, lots of shade due to the big beautiful trees. In the evening they would turn on the hanging lights that were strung up throughout the yard and it was really nice. The dance floor was nice, seeing as I can't dance for crap..I would give it a 5/5 because it's been as good as any dance floor I might have stared at longingly. The food was good, we started with salads that were really good. The lettuce was crisp and it had peanuts in it, they served bowls of ranch and a vinaigrette I want to say. I had the ranch, but my friend had the vinaigrette and really enjoyed it so that's all I have to say about that. The entree was a chicken in mushroom sauce I wanna say. I just remember it was a little cold because we were greeting the wedding party when it was served so the wind got the better of it. It was still pretty great, oddly enough I remember the carrots served with it the best because I wanted more haha. The night went on and the servers kept the tables managed really well, you didn't have crap strewn all over the place which happens a lot at weddings I've been too. So good job on keeping it clean. We were shooed out at 10 pm, and lots of photos were taken. Overall it was a wonderful and amazing reception, but I can't rate it on my company and the wedding couple alone.

Beautiful event place but lacks planning and organizational skills. - They need to step up their…read moregame with organization. For an event of only about 70 people - they ran out of plates! The flow for the Buffett should have been planned smarter as we were having to double back through the crowd with full hands to go get our Tea. - Drinks go last in a self serve Buffett because you need 2 hands to serve your plate. - With their giant kitchen island the buffet line could have had great flow if planned better. Zero lighting outside was awkward for everyone trying to park and walk to their cars. Everyone was mentioning that. As a former restaurant owner I know they're just asking for a liability lawsuit with their pitch dark grounds. I get wanting to maintain ambiance but on a dark night at least some soft lighting so you can see where you're walking is necessary. The food was good, and well presented, but salt less. When I asked one of the staff for Salt I was told they didn't have any. (?!) "Any? Not in the whole entire house?" Finally a lady brought out 1 set. (For 50+ people?) If you're not going to provide those silverware sets that include the little salt and pepper packages, go to Hobby Lobby and get those sets of multiple crystal miniature salt and pepper sets. An expense of probably about $30 to have a set for each table. The hostess was beautiful and the place is beautiful but I like my events to flow as smoothly as possible so the focus can be on the reason for celebrating and not on the disorganization.

I was the worst bride, not really wanting anything at all to do with planning, because it is not something I enjoy. I told Tracie I wanted to show up and have everything done and looking perfect, and that's exactly what I got (and more!). I can't imagine having anyone else plan such a special day for us, and I'm so grateful for all the hard work and many hours she put into it. She came up with back up plans for the weather, as it looked like it might rain. She went above and beyond in every way possible, and I was so emotional on our big day that I was incredibly grateful to not have to worry about anything at all. It was more beautiful than I could have ever dreamed of, and I would highly recommend to anyone considering any of her services, but especially for a wedding.

We were blown away by the service provided by owner and proprietor Meloney and her staff. This is a family owned business who really cares about their clients. They made sure our rehearsal ran smoothly and the day-of went off without a hitch. The BBQ provided by Watson's was delicious! We had the smoked chicken, sausage and smoked Mac n cheese. 'Deeserts' who created our wedding cake did a phenomenal job as well! We had lemon and almond cake in a 3 tier naked cake style and Meloney used fresh flowers to decorate - gorgeous! Everyone one was raving about the food and cake - I don't think we had a single piece left over because everyone went back for seconds. The Hall was gorgeous with chandeliers, a charming sweetheart table, a whiskey barrel cake table and linens and centerpieces provided (we filled the little vases and jars with loose flowers we brought ourselves). For a fee of $600 you're allowed to bring all your own alcohol and bartenders and security are provided. We were also able to take home all unused alcohol. We also booked the cottage for myself and my 6 bridesmaids to stay in the night before and day-of leading up to the wedding and I'm so glad we did! It was so stress free to just have everyone onsite and for just $300 it slept up to 8 people with wine and breakfast provided. Large full bath and plenty of cute picture opportunities in here as well. There's a charming grooms suite that my husband and his boys were able to hang out in prior tot he ceremony - beautiful wood and leather elements.
