Princeton Event Center - All we needed to do was add our flowers to tables and it looked very nice - Venues & Event Spaces Near Me - Modesto, California

This event hall in the middle of nowhere is pretty on the inside. The outside, ehhh. I mean when you have to self park your ride and the entrance is practically your reception hall... it kinda feels janky. Once you make it inside the main hall, then you're looking at a nice venue. The food was nice, the bar was nice (even though they need more than just 1 bar area). It's a solid spot for your event. read more

I had my wedding here in April. The remodeling was so beautiful! I got so many compliments. Hawel is very fast in responding whenever we had questions. The assistant and bartender were very nice people and were there to help us with anything we needed. The servers need a little more initiative in their pace, but in the end everyone was served. They helped pass out cake to everyone. I would definitely recommend this hall! read more

Planning, set up, accommodations were what we needed for a great 25th Birthday. We used the smaller room for 100 capacity and we had plenty room for serving table, tables and room for dancing. Beautiful chandeliers and refrigerator to keep cold things cold. Dave the owner and grounds keeper were amazing. read more

They are most accommodating. If you want Rental with staffing included, they are the best. You can bring your own Food and Drinks. Or have customized catering, your choice. They are best remodeled hall, with plenty of parking. Our event had about 600 guest, with plenty of open dance room to enjoy our Live band on their stage! read more

We had a party this past weekend at the Princeton Event Center and we highly recommend this venue! Hawel is who we booked with and he was very attentive and kept good communication with us for weeks leading up to the party. The security guards, bartenders and servers were very friendly as well and provided great service! The venue itself is also gorgeous inside with clean bathrooms. Will book here again for future events! read more

I've seen alot of good reviews for this place but for the price we payed we had to buy are own cups for the drinks and the bathroom vents were dirty and the water fountain was green. But besides that the DJ was great !! Oh ya and the bartenders were awesome read more

The event contact, Hawel, was absolutely fantastic! His responsiveness was 2nd to none. The lighting was amazing for my company Christmas party! The security was very present. The hall was very nice. My only concern was the parking due to it being a multi-event facility but if you get there early is all good. They do have parking on the street as well which was fine. Otherwise we had a great time, thank you Hawel! read more

Don't rent the big hall they are remodeling the have the walls exposed with unfinished drywall, plus the bartenders don't know how to make cocktails they don't use a jigger so they over pour tequila, I took 15 bottles and they used all by 10 o'clock plus I took 31 cases 24 cans of beer and what was left was like 6 cases, they served the margaritas and Palomas too strong, instead of using 1 1/2 ounce of tequila they used twice as much horrible bartenders and very rude unless you tipped them Never again I would rent this place read more

Definitely a great option if you are wanting to save some money for your event! We had our wedding reception in the party room and it was exactly what we needed. Hawel was very responsive and was always there to answer any questions I had. We had about 100 people at our wedding and we all fit there snuggly. Not any room for a dance floor while everyone is seated for dinner but once we got a couple tables moved out, there was plenty of room. We had not planned for this until the day before so it would have been nice to be informed of this ahead of time. Overall everything went as smooth as possible. I do wish we were given an experienced bartender or at least were told that our bartender had never bartended before. read more

We had such an amazing time hosting our sons first birthday! It was actually an amazing find our first hall got damaged by the California storm. When they heard that we needed a place in short notice they helped in so many ways. They are very attentive to phone calls. Every time I had a question I got answered right away. Will definitely always keep this place in mind when hosting more events. read more

We had our wedding here and took the all Inclusive offer and everything came out amazing. We basically just had to show up and they took care of everything. They catered, bartended, they set up the tables and even cleaned after it was over. Our decorations were done by susie, from Rose Garden Florist. We didn't have to worry about anything besides having a good time. Hawel was super helpful and made sure our wedding was a success. If you have a big family and want to party all night this is definitely the place to book. read more

we had our wedding and our first baby's birthday at the Princeton Event Center. It's been such a great experience with the team, the owner and his wife are very welcoming, friendly and easy to work with. The place had received a major upgrades, beautiful floor tiles and state of the art bar area. We're planning to have our next baby birthday again at the Princeton hall. I highly recommend this hall for any small or big occasions because they have two sections; a small hall for birthdays and baby showers and a large hall for weddings receptions read more

The place needs some fixing. The floors are really dirty and worn out and so are the sealings. Good size and good location but needs work.

Hosted our first "Claws for a Cause" Crab Feed at the Princeton Event Center on Feb. 9th and the experience was superb from every aspect! From day one, meeting with the Hall manager Mr. Hawel Hawel, he went out of his way to help us achieve our goals. He gave us an amazing deal for the hall rental, he also assisted us in getting Security Guards and liquor licences. We were given full access to use the kitchen & bar as we wish. There is hardly anything to complain about, the place was big and clean. I recommend this place very highly read more

Howel the owner, he's really nice, he helps us whit everything, he could and he offers us a lot of options like decoration, food and music, I highly recommend this ballroom. read more

Beautiful venue to have any event at. Overall such a great experience and wonderful customer service. It was such a pleasure working with the manager Hawel. He was so professional and courteous to all of our needs. I would definitely recommend all my family and friends to Princeton Event Center in the near future. My wife and I were very pleased with everything and the amazing catering done for our wedding that they did as well. The prices were incredibly low!! It was a night we will never forget. Thank you!! read more

My husband & I had our Wedding here this past weekend on December 1st 2018. The Princeton Event Center was the perfect place to have our wedding! The owner Hawel was great! He helped us in every way that he could & took care of us in whatever we needed. The food was Great, along with their service. Everyone was so nice always made sure people had food and water on the tables. I highly recommend this place for any special event that requires a good amount of people. My husband Juan & I just want to say thank you for everything Hawel! read more

I will NEVER recommend this place to anyone. Waiter service was TERRIBLE. I spoke to the owner and asked multiple times if food would be taken care of. He kept saying yes everything will be fine. I asked the day before weeks before. And got the same response that everything will be taken care of. He also mentioned sodas will be provided! And cups none of that was provided. The waiters had attitudes and didn't want to work. If that was the issue I would of hired waiters and never used their services. I brought extra things for the food and they kept majority of the things. So before I left as the BRIDE I made sure I brought everything I bought home. The place looks nice very modern and up to date but everything else was terrible I would not recommend this place and his excuse is that there is mis communication and his waiters don't do that. I called him 3 days later to resolve this problem and let him know about my experience . And he said I'm with another customer and hung up. Not professional at all. read more

I had my wedding here and this has been the most horrible place I have ever booked. I booked my wedding in 2019 and due to Covid 19 it was postponed. The package we got was open bar which only included vodka and a few mixers cranberry juice and sodas, Coors light and Bud light. When I signed contract he kept saying that he will provide everything I even asked him a month before the day if I needed to provide anything and he said NO he has everything that is included in the open bar.  So a week before the wedding I called him to double check what alcohol he was providing and that is when I found out that it was vodka and a few mixers cranberry juice and sodas, Coors light and Bud light and he said he will throw in Corona since I kept telling him that my family does not drink what he was providing and if he can change it he said no but I am more than welcome to bring what I need for my guest.  The morning of my wedding my son in law took over a keg of Modelo and my cases of champagne for the toast. Which was never passed out we spoke to Laura and advised her when they need to pass out the champagne but that was never done. We were promised the side room for when the Bridal party came back from taking pictures but that was rented out after he had promised it to us. Lets not go to the food we asked for over a year to taste his food and he kept saying Ill call you when we have a wedding serving that and we never got that call. We chose to have appetizers at the table which the main table for the groom and bride did not have anything no water, no appetizers nothing. Oh lets not mention when his people were supposed to be serving my guest the food they were to busy taken to go plates to the back  before they even served my guest! I provided flip flops for my guest when the dancing began his security guard took like 10 pairs. Don't get me wrong If they would have came and asked if they can have a pair I would have been more than happy to give them a pair but to take 10 and he kept trying to go back to the table to grab more. Please BEWARE of renting this place make sure you get everything he tells you in writing make sure he tells you the detail of the things he is providing in writing. Beautiful place but service sucks the owner is RUDE and tell you LIES!! read more

Just completed my second event at Princeton Event Center. The owners are so easy to work with and were very gracious to us when our actual numbers were less than we contracted for. Excellent food, a beautiful lobby and restrooms, a fountain is in the works and there are plans for a remodel of the interior. They can hold big crowds and we all had a WONDERFUL time at our event. I highly recommend! read more

Great place for wedding very good food great service very clean. I recommend to every person Princeton event center.

Beautiful place with a very unprofessional owner, Hawel. This owner likes to talk lots of crap about former clients. Made me very uneasy and uncomfortable about how he expressed about his former clients and bookings. Extremely pushy and dishonest when adding up totals. He will add extra hundreds to your total. If you don't do the math yourself brace yourself for a higher total. I added myself after I saw him add to his calculator totals twice and he had tacked on an extra 300. His words were "how I get the wrong total many times?" He thought it was funny. He gives you a typed contract with handwritten specifics that you cant understand. He does this to back out of things he promises. Glad I cancelled and went elsewhere. Stay away. read more

We did a casino theme party for a 40th birthday and this place is beautiful! We wanted the smaller room for the party but it was booked , so the manager Hawel, was great and really helped us out. They usually rent the whole hall or half the hall and they accommodated us and blocked off a small portion of the bar area for us, which was perfect! We utilized the bar area and the outside patio area . Beautiful hall and just as beautiful remodeled Lobby area as well. We had a great time and great service from the staff! Will definitely be renting this place again for any parties in the future! read more

I rented this hall on November 23th for my daughter's Baptism and we had such a good time the place looked very nice, the staff was very nice I recommended for anybody who wants to have a good time in a safe place. read more

Very organized and the manager was super helpful throughout the event! He was there to make sure everything was done and the staff was amazing and were very helpful! read more

I went to a wedding last week and felt so sorry for the bride. They paid for the kitchen but couldn't use it so the guest had to eat cold food. They had to argue to get the fruit out of the kitchen and curtain fell on the cake. My son told the staff the curtain rod was flemsy but they insisted it was fine. One of their servers was wearing a tee shirt with a logo on it. Very unprofessional. The toast was a shot of tequila instead of champagne. The staff poured a shot in a small plastic shot glass but measured 1/4 of in inch. I later went to the bar and asked for a shot and was again given a 1/4 inch serving. I replied to the staff member are you kidding! He poured another 1/4 inch. I again replied are you serious! He finally poured a full shot. Please keep in mind, the bride and groom paid for the alcohol. Think of this hall before you book it. It was not cheap. Front entrance and the main ball room was nice but the service is crappy. I'm not even sure the security was legitimate. It appeared all family ran businesses. This doesn't involve the venue but don't let your coordinator put business cards on the guests tables. Very tacky! read more

Most amazing beautiful banquet hall I have ever experienced. I rented out the hall for my wedding. The owner Mr. Hawel was completely wonderful and helpful in so many ways. His wife Lillian did the cooking for my wedding. She did an absolutely magnificent job. Everyone loved the food and the service was great. Their whole staff did everything I asked for and more. Everyone was pleased which made me happy. I completely recommend this hall. 10 out of 10. THANK YOU for a wonderful night!!! read more

I enjoyed the company of my family and friends. Darus who helped setup tables was very friendly. Very nice hall for the small one. However, they had construction in the place and there was no notice that it was going to happen! You can't get a refund unless there's a death in the family. I was mostly worried about the kids and their safety since there's a fence around the hall. Another thing is I was pretty irritated on how people who wanted to rent the hall weren't supposed to be there. I know the managers office is by the entrance but for some reason I had 2 groups of people who came to see the hall walked around the hall when they shouldn't since my party is going on and there is a wooden board to enter basically like a plank. Thought security would be early but didn't come until 5 and the party started at 12. I was mislead about the security starting at 12 since I was told that security's pay is during the whole party. Felt that the party wasn't worth 700 that I paid. The manager told me that if the bathroom was taken we can use the other one around the corner but they blocked it away from us so we couldn't use it and is meant for the bigger hall. AC wasn't working at all. At least Darus gave us a fan. I wished they'd at least give us a discount. With everything being said, nice hall but was on construction. I just wished the manager notified me before I paid the second payment about the whole place on construction. I had to wait for the manger to come at 1:30 so I can play music but I'm glad that we brought our own speaker. Also the bathroom was dirty both toilet seat and bowl. By the way, before the party we were going to setup but it took so long for them to let the door open. I'm only giving this place 2 stars because the party was fun with a nice hall and my money was basically not worth 700. Just hoped they can at least give me some of my money back. read more
