The server, Beth, did a great job of serving and keeping empty plates and glasses removed. By all means, try the bacon-wrapped apricot bites! They are wonderfully delicious! The mini-tacos and sandwiches were delicious, too. The lemon squares and white chocolate chip cookies are so good they disappear fast! I'm told that they sell the cookie dough for the cookies in their stores so you can enjoy them at home.

He was so positive the whole time and helped avert several crises as a result of my "bridal brain." For example, he helped us secure a guitarist for our ceremony at practically the last minute who was absolutely perfect for the vibe we wanted! My guests had many compliments for the food, and the best part was that I was so relaxed knowing I was in such great hands! Five Star is a relatively unknown gem and I highly recommend their services to other brides, especially if you're looking to hold your wedding at Mitas Hill Vineyards or another McKinney venue. Easiest five star review to give out, hands down!

Give them a call and see what they can do for your special occasions!

I met with Anointed Hands (LaTricia, her mother, and small staff of kids/young adults) on May 10th,…read more2019, to do a tasting for my wedding. They presented well and appeared to be a small black owned business (I have no insight into their ownership structure so this I can't confirm) so I eagerly wanted to support them. Things took a drastic turn in February of 2020, one month before my scheduled wedding on March 21st, 2020, when many of their contractual commitments floundered. Firstly, my wedding venue went bankrupt so I called LaTricia on February 13th, 2020 (I had notified her 3 days in advance as soon as I found out) to discuss cancellation since contractually the venue she agreed to serve at was no longer in existence. She notified me on February 13th, 2020, that she had already bought beef so she would be retaining $2,300+. My first thought was why are you buying beef weeks in advance of a wedding since meat doesn't last that long? Secondly, I was clear at the onset that I wanted real China/silverware and they contractually agreed to provide that to us. However, on February 10th, 2020, LaTricia called me to state that she was able to find plates but was having challenges finding real silverware so she wanted to know if she could skip providing it. Why is that a question one month before my wedding when you contractually committed to provide it and I paid for it? The most alarming part of this was her lack of business strategy and customer service skills. We had contracted her to do our rehearsal dinner on March 20th, 2020, (an $1,800 affair) and we had found a new venue that accommodated her (in spite of my two failed attempts that week to get her to furnish evidence of insurance) and we agreed to pay a $300 fee to a new venue yet she stated she didn't care because she was holding on $2,300+ from my wedding. Moreover, she stated that she needs 5 business days to issue a partial refund in the amount of $999 for our rehearsal dinner (what reputable business doesn't have $999?!). This woman (LaTricia seems to poorly lead the business strategy) and business have a lack of integrity and questionable practices as evidenced by my aforementioned examples. Be careful!

The newly married couple arrived from the UK a few days in advance of the party, but both of them came down with Covid. Needless to say, we had to cancel the party, and all of us were devastated! But Vaibhav from the Glitz was great and gave us a credit for the full amount that could be used if we rebooked the party within a year. Nearly a year later, we finally pulled off the event. The venue was excellent, and everything went smoothly thanks to the help from The Glitz and Vaibhav! I would definitely book another event at the Glitz.

I think it's fair to assume When you rent a venue, you expect to show up with it being clean and ready to use. There was stuff all of the floors. The kitchen was a mess. The bathrooms were dirty. Decorations and balloons still up from night before. No paper towels in kitchen or bathrooms, no trash bags in bathroom. Our tables were not set up and table cloths not out or chairs out. We had to wait for him to set up tables so we could start decorating. Some of the tablecloths had stains on them, probably from night before. The chargers they used were dirty, we had to wash food off several of them. To top it off, he was rude. Not apologizing or trying to make things right. He was supposed to come back and mop before guests showed up cause the floors were disgusting and decided to show up Late when our guests were there and tried to mop....we told him to forget it... He isn't moping around guest. Not one time Did he apologize or make things right. He would be mad or fling his hands. He even showed the venue to 2 or 3 People while we were trying to decorate. Making them promises of stuff he would do, that he did not do for us. When you rent a venue, you expect to walk in and it be clean and ready for you to use. That was definitely not the case!
