From the moment the doors opened they were all very welcoming and kind. Quick to respond via email or text, and very open to make adjustments on food or drinks as needed. They have such a solid team! All of my guests were blown away by the beauty of the venue as was I! But to be honest the best part of the whole night was an employee named Flor. She truly made me feel like her own daughter! So kind, so graceful, so attentive to detail. She truly wanted to give me the best night and she did! BIG shoutout to her.

Ok here it goes WHY I DONT RECOMEN THUS PLACE! Although they have a big hall and plenty of…read moreparking. It sucks for your guest to even get into this place they have the gates locked and only one entrance on a long one way street. At first it seems they want your business and yes they do they want your MONEY and plenty of it watch your pockets! people and keep an eye on the staff. They will steel your stuff ( THEY ARE THEIFS ) they will help themselves to your treats that you have for your guest. Christine well sorry to say she never answers her phone you have to keep on calling to try to get ahold of her this It feel is very unprofessional when you run a business specially with a person who considers herself an event coordinator but yet wants to charge you for everything your bring. She blows you off like what happened is nothing. I reach out to management about my concerns and a simple oh sorry with no return calls. This isn't a simple I'm sorry issue this serious specially when you the amount money I did to rent this place. I think that if you express your self and reach to management it is not for them to brush it under the carpet it's for them to take action. Ok so I spent over 10k on an event where I even opened a tab on my credit card for my guest. I spent over 2k on drinks and telling them I didn't want my guest to pay for anything well that didn't happened they were charging them anyway. They started the tequila shots good at the beginning and then I caught them only serving half the amount but still charging the same amount. Ok so I started by telling you to keep eye I personally saw there staff helping selfs to some special treats that I purchased for my guest they would fill up there plates walk in one door and go out the other they thought no one was looking but I saw them personally. Crooks I also reach out to there management expecting a call back I guess they didn't think this mattered I told them that there staff needs to come to work properly dressed the bar tender could use a belt he was sagging with his pants half way down his butt and working along side with Christine who at no point said anything. Before we locked in out event we told her our guest would be bringing bottles as gifts and asked not to turn them away well that didn't happened. 30 min before my event was over they start to pick up the bows of the chairs as if dough telling my guest the party was over . My event was paid up to 12am. Ok and here is the big shocker who in there right mind puts a security guard to turn on the lights before the event is over and stand in the middle of the your event. I explained to them this was wrong and ignored me this isn't a prison where guest have to be ushered out we don't need a chaperone. If I spent this kind of money for one night have the respect and decency to honor a contract and specially you have been doing this for long time. This is very unprofessional as a business owner this doesn't flow. I wouldn't rent this place again so if I was you I'd check out other places that don't act like this place did.

Surprised to have a venue space in the middle of two very busy restaurants…read more The plaza also houses several professional offices. Most venue or event spaces tend to be very large, this was enough to accommodate about 70 people, hairs and table rentals included. You will need to provide your own tablecloths, tableware and catering. Single gender neutral bathroom in the rear of the space but is quite visible to all. Plain white walls lend themselves to your imaginative design. The event I attended was a gender reveal, there was a very nice balloon background on one side, and about four buffet tables end to end, holding snacks, favors and gift bags. Spacious enough for everyone to mingle. Lots of parking but lunch hour was quite busy and I had to park towards the rear of the property.

From the very beginning, Maria was patient, knowledgeable, and incredibly helpful. She made the entire process feel easy and effortless--which is a dream when you're planning a wedding. On the big day, their attention to detail truly blew us away. They made sure to set aside a plate of everything that was served and even brought appetizers from our cocktail hour to our suite so we didn't miss a thing. They served us first at the reception and delivered sweets from the dessert table directly to us--such thoughtful, personal touches that meant so much to us! And the food? Absolutely amazing. Even our pickiest guests were raving about how delicious everything was! We had multiple people asking for the caterer's info because they were THAT good. We also booked our bartender through Gatherings N' Stuff, and from what our guests told us, he was a total hit! We will absolutely be recommending Gatherings N' Stuff to everyone we know and will definitely be using them again for all future events. Thank you, Maria and team, for helping make our day so unforgettable!

I give it a 3 rating for one reason and one reason only. The music (live band and DJ) is so loud,…read moreyou cant even hear yourself think. The bartenders can barely hear what you are telling, when you try to order drinks. If there was an emergency, the security would NEVER hear you. The staff was very attentive And cleaned up tables as soon as parties left. Place is super clean and allows outside food. Which is really nice. For safety reasons alone, the music needs to be turned down a hair. For communication reasons, like ordering drinks, trying to talk to your party, it would immensely help, if the music was turned down a tiny bit. Owner of the club, I suggest you sit in the lounge and try having a conversation with the person next to you. Try ordering a drink... I'm dying to know what you truly think.

When it was time to sing happy birthday they dimmed the lights and made sure my daughter had her special moment. I also had a last minute candy table and they were so accommodating and decorated my candy table as well . I would definitely recommend this salon they are very professional and on top of their staff! You won't regret doing business with them !!

The attention to detail in all of the décor was beautiful and made the entire event feel so special and elegant. Everything was set up perfectly and the venue itself was spotless. You can tell they take a lot of pride in keeping the space clean and well organized. One of the highlights of the night was the bartender. The drinks were absolutely delicious and beautifully prepared. Our guests kept going back for more and everyone was impressed with both the quality and presentation. What really made the night stand out, though, was the owner. They were present throughout the entire event and constantly checking in to make sure everything was running smoothly. They made sure my daughter, my family, and all of our guests were having a great time. That level of care and attentiveness meant so much and helped the entire night run stress-free. My daughter had the most memorable Sweet 15, and I'm so grateful we chose this venue. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a beautiful space with excellent service for their special event.

You hear of horror stories from event planners, and venues, and it's true that a-hundred things can go wrong, but in our case; everything went well, and according to plan.
