Do not waste your time. The attitude of the person renting this event place is beyond…read moreUNPROFESSIONAL! We missed a day in paying the remaining amount due to my husband's best friend passing away and when I informed her of the situation she said a $100 late fee was going to be added. She said a contract is a contract. I Informed her that it's completely understandable but when someone passes away that should be considered. We ended up paying a $25 late fee because that's the best she should do. Yes it was $25 but you already know the customer has been through a lot, your going back and forth with her, and she's politely letting you know the circumstances but like she said a contract is a contract. So those $25 cost you a 1 star review. On top of that She never met us at the location. Everything is through text. Everything is an ADD ON fee. Literally the worst experience and the attitude / sarcasm you get makes the whole experience not worth your money!! If someone else would just manage the location they would probably make a lot of money. Customer service is everything and trust me that's one thing this owner lacks!! Trust me this isn't the only review about how unprofessional the person is, we should have listened to the rest of the low star reviews.

We thought it was a catering hall, but realized you have to bring your own catering team, etc. I'm not sure if they supply the decor or it's an outside source. The reception area is nice, but it is buffet styled dining in another room. The tables seated enough persons, 10 to a table and there were at least 15 tables and it didn't feel cramped and still enough space on the dance floor.

The staff…read morewas so wonderful, from the moment I planned my event here til the last person walked out we were treated with the upmost respect , all our needs were met and exceeded ! The waiters and waitress did such an amazing job tending to my guest and making sure everyone is fed and has everything they need at any given moment . My decorator was spectacular! I love all the hard work she put in to make my event really POP ! Nela I want to personally thank you for always coming and showing out ! All I had to tell her was the vision and she brought it to life ! It seems like this event hall had everything we were looking for and still managed to exceed our expectations! Will continue using this event hall for many more special occasions! I definitely recommend Opal event hall for everyone's special occasion!

I've never had such a horrible experience like with this venue ! Pls stay away from it…read more.. I very recently had an event and i chose to get a package so first the waitress were stealing my stuff, they were rude to my guests! There was trash all over in the venue The decoration lady whos name Sonia is really bad at decorating and at putting up with what you agreed with... So when I complain to the owner (the couple) they hardly believe what I was saying even though I had proof of it As pics and videos... The communication with them is horrible! I'm not happy at all with the venue and I DO NOT RECOMMEND IT AT ALL save your money and look for other places

I don't even know where to begin! As I started researching and visiting venues I found myself…read morestarting to feel overwhelmed with options, requirements/rules, pricing, and what seemed like an ever increasing budget. Honestly, I had never heard of Vecoma, but kept running across it on sites. At the time their website wasn't as developed as now so I wasn't quite sure. I had narrowed down and visited 5 other venues, had huge packets of info that made my head spin, and just felt like maybe I should elope when I sent an inquiry to Vecoma. Caroline instantly responded with a general quote (WOW!! maybe I COULD do this) and invited me for a visit. They have open houses on Saturday mornings, and I highly recommend that you go because if you have visited any other venue you will instantly see the differences. There is no pressure, you aren't locked into a time frame, you are free to walk the grounds, look at previous wedding books, talk to staff, all so low key and no stress! You can price out items, look at menus, and simply be relaxed. Not only is the venue stunning and has multiple options in terms of ceremony and reception, what truly make the venue is the staff. On my Saturday tour, it was the staff that helped me solidify my choice in less than 30 minutes, something I had agonized over for months! In terms of pricing - you can make any budget work here! It is clear cut, nothing hidden, easily explained, you know up front what you are dealing with and if you want to add or change things they are completely fluid. They have payment plans that are easy, manageable, and take a huge stress away! They have incredible menu choices with customization and multiple bar options, all with the best pricing and I guarantee you will not find better full bar pricing anywhere in Atlanta! I purchased a full bar and they even included 2 complimentary passed hors d'ourves. The other thing you will find is that they do not nickel and dime you to death, there is no charge for turning on the twinkle lights, you can use their mirrors, votives, fishbowls, wood centerpieces and anything else that is considered a "house item" FREE of charge. They give you the freedom to express yourself in decorations, you can use your own vendors, friends for setup, and you get to bring your own cakes with NO cutting fee! I had 4 cakes and 5 pies, 9 total and NO EXTRA CHARGE. They even provided the cutting utensils and sliced and served! It is the little things here, the level of personal service, the relaxed atmosphere, the freedom to be yourself that make it truly stand apart. The other thing is you don't have just ONE person who helps you. There is literally an army! Caroline is simply Wonderwoman and from managing the venue to being the best photographer and is so down to earth, she will make all worries disappear! Caitlin, Judith, Cathy, all answered tons of questions, quickly responded to emails, and made being a bride EASY. On the day of we didn't realize ALL of the staff come together to help you set up, put out decorations, find a bandaid, help with wardrobe malfunctions, I was amazed! The food was simply incredible! We didn't make it to a tasting, but I trusted reviews and it was impeccable, best chefs, and people are still commenting on it, including the most picky eaters. I had everything from true southerners who must have their pork and potatoes, to friends that were vegan and halaal and all were happy. DJ/photography - they have both in-house if you choose and the prices can't be beat! Caroline's pics you can see online and DJ Kirk makes it a breeze and you can pick all of your own songs or he will help if needed. All included in your invoicing! Because we had saved so much money we even opted to do videography through DJ Kirk as well. Other things - We worried about the fickle November weather, the staff were reassuring that we could change as needed. We were able to do on the deck and had heaters in case, then inside for the reception. The bridal party was running late, not a problem, Caroline started pictures with the boys to give the girls time to catch up! They make sure you eat and have your food already waiting for you while you tend to all the people and excitement. They don't rush you out at the end, we had time to say goodbye, pack up, etc. Check them out, you will be amazed, it will be perfect, your guests will be in awe, and your wallet will thank you!

The service was exceptional and we had such a blast with our family and friends. It was such a special and magical day I'll never forget.

My husband and I want to give a big shout out to the Vecoma Staff, Caroline Tucker and Megan for capturing our special day. They are the best photographer and Videographer Team. We loved working with them both on our special day. We can't thank you enough. I highly recommend Vecoma at the yellow river if you are engaged and looking for a venue.

" - She was upfront and honest on pricing. - She took our needs for a totally gluten and dairy free menu VERY seriously and it was delicious. - She answered emails and phone calls promptly and allowed multiple visits to the venue to visualize and try out items in the space. - Other vendors raved about her and the culture of the venue as well. We had around 170 guest. We filled up the ballroom but with the space of the house and the beautiful yard and patio people had plenty of places to mingle and visit. 173 Carlyle is a great value and much of that value is because of Gerise! It was great to know we could depend on her.

And by blindly I mean - we didn't have…read morea chance to taste the food beforehand, we liked what we saw on the tour but it wasn't set up for a wedding, rather a holiday party, and at the venue-booking stage of the planning I had absolutely NO CLUE how wedding crazy I would become in the following 6 months of planning. You see, I'd planned to have a simple wedding. I didn't care about all of the frills (at first). I just wanted good food, good drinks and the people we care most about in attendance. And Carlyle House made everything easy. They could customize my linens, we had a great choice of food and they were willing to let me bring in my own cupcakes. Add all that to the super cute old house that has an add-on ballroom and I was sold at first glance. Gerise - the on-site planner - was awesome. I never felt like she wanted to kill me after I would send her one of hundreds of emails with questions as I worked my way into becoming a minor bridezilla. She choreographed the rehearsal perfectly and was even better on our wedding day. She made me not regret hiring a wedding planner because she seriously did it all for us. In the end, I did turn into the bride I never dreamed I would be - personalized aisle runner, flowers I never wanted, a candy buffet and cute little signs I thought I could DIY and ended up hiring out. And even though my then-fiancé made the mistake of actually calling me BrideZilla a few times (he obviously has never seen the show with the REAL bridezillas), our wedding was absolutely PERFECT. Even my always-disapproving-of-everything mother-in-law loved it. And that's more than any praise I can give anything in this world. The food was great - better than we expected. The drinks were great. The night was great. And we are now Mr. & Mrs. Kim. That is sooo great!
