Yea, I just got Married there two days ago. Oh with the review.
All in all the place is average, what attracted me was the court yard. I went around July of 2011 when there was plenty of rain and the flowers and grass are green and livelier. We spoken to Mark, the manager of the place, and organized everything through him. He was very helpful from giving up an estimate to recommending what type of food for the banquet. Since it is a banquet hall, and not a church, he went above and beyond by letting us have the place for an hr and 1/2 the day before as rehearsal. On top of that, all signs was pointing to pouring rain the next day. Mark offered to let us use the inside hall instead of the out door pavilion. Pretty good customer service if you ask me. The staff was very friendly, from helping me and all my groom's men pin the boutineer to getting multiple pots of hot water for my tea ceremony.
Well I just listen all the good time this place has to offer. Here are the bad, and reason why I gave a 2 star rating.
1: The bathroom is pretty awful, i had so many guess saying it was dark and slippery, granted it was raining. But the lack of paper towel or toilet paper should not be an excuse.
2: They knew how many guess we have, shortage of seating for the ceremony should not be an issue, but even with only 80 guess, we have people standing. I am more than annoyed due to the fact that we have a few older guess that had to stand.
3: Someone screwed up on placing the number on the table. My parents, the guess of honor are as far away from me as possible. This is beyond annoying.
4: The grass was no longer green and the water fountain has no water. Matter of fact, multiple times where we set up to take a picture, and the photographer had to move us because there is a huge patch of brown or no grass. While the fountain was turned on and making an awful noise, there was no water in it. So the grass is green on the other side.
I guess all the bad things can easily be corrected, so take caution and do diligence when you picking this place as your wedding hall. And make sure certain things are taken care of and follow through yourself and no rely on them. read more
