A short time before the time of the shower I went to set up the food. The meatballs and cocktail sausage were cold in zip lock bags with sauce in containers. The chicken wings cold and looked half cooked. When I called them and asked why my food is cold, I was told you have to specify if you want cold or hot. I think they should have asked me. Anytime I ever ordered catering for a party I received my food ready to be served. I had nothing to warm the food up in. I was totally screwed. The girl that answered the phone told me that she will talk to the owner about giving me a full refund. Well, I never heard back from them!!! The event planner said she will never recommend this company and this place is booked every day!

She accused me of throwing cake on the floor as I was folding one of our linens. I made a report to an officer who repeatedly told me that "That's not like her and maybe she accidentally did it while reaching for the linen." I know nothing will come of it but I still decided to share in the hopes that no one else has the same experience. My business partner and I said a prayer each time we went inside the venue. I know it was God and only God that allowed me not to react. Had I reacted and not walked away, the night could have ended worst. I honestly feel that the owner is prejudice and encourage people not to patronize them.

FUTURE BRIDES AND GROOMS, BEWARE. I came here this past weekend for close friend's wedding…read morereception and truly wanted to enjoy myself, but found it utterly IMPOSSIBLE. Why? Because - whether by accident or in a crude, intentional attempt to save money - the building manager neglected to turn on the AC in the entire ballroom until halfway through the reception. It is reproachfully unacceptable that this was allowed, and I truly hope my friends received some sort of discount or refund for this shameful act of gross negligence that made the evening only a fraction as enjoyable as it could have been. How does one eat and dance and celebrate when one is sweating through gowns or suits? I mean, I can't wipe my mouth when my napkin is already drenched in the sweat from my brow. We asked a waiter why it was so hot, and he had the gall to admit the AC was not, in fact, broken; when we pressed him and then asked why it was so hot, he couldn't give us an answer and scurried away. If you say your event space has the capacity for 600 guests, then you need to plan to be able to accommodate the body heat of those 600 guests and TURN. ON. THE. AIR. CONDITIONING. The only reason this is not a 1 star review is that the traditional Vietnamese and Chinese food provided by their catering department was absolutely delicious - cooked and seasoned perfectly and elegantly plated. But I'm not going to discuss that any further here, BECAUSE I'M STILL REALLY HOT FROM THE LACK OF AC.

The food was good as well (I chose the chicken dish) and the service was also very efficient. My only mini complaint is that to get to the venue, you have to walk a bit ... Normally not an issue, but with the majority of us wearing heels or at least wedges, my feet are complaining a bit today. Otherwise, I'd love to get married here myself some day (if I lived in the South!) and I highly recommend it.

All the caterers, waitstaff, rental team, etc were on time and very well trained. -Fun to work with. Glenn had a great vision for our wedding from the get-go, and he and Anita were both onsite the day of the wedding to make sure everything ran smoothly. They also did our decor and table arrangements and everything was sophisticated and tasteful, no cheesy wedding decor to be found anywhere. Thank you Glenn and Anita for giving us the wedding we imagined. We will never forget it, and our guests won't either. You guys were outstanding vendors and we highly recommend your team.

The yoga instructor is calming; it makes for a peaceful begining. The goats are so adorable and there were babies in the spring, not more than maybe 8 lbs or so. I think this is one of the best experiences anyone can do. They have you set up outside, on your yoga mats (don't forget to bring a mat - they supply thin ones in case you forget). and there is a small fence around your yoga group so the goats cant get out. The group is maybe 10 or 12 people. If it rains, they have a tent set up so the yoga goes on, rain or shine. And you just a nice, hour long relaxing time in this beautifully, tranquil garden. After you finish the best yoga in the city, they offer vegan empanadas as a nice snack and a baseball hat with the Paradigm Gardens logo on it. You can bring your own water and they have nice clean bathrooms as well. They are doing everything right! Everyone should experience the joy of goat yoga!
