Wedding & Private Event Testimonials "Thanks so much for the note regarding Ashley's reception. Everything went so well. At the end of the day she felt everything was perfect. We had so many people at the reception that did not realize the conference center was there. Hopefully, some will want to reserve it for some special occasion at a future time.
Thanks for all your help in making Ashley's day exactly as she wanted it."

"Wow- What a great reception we had this past Saturday. The conference center is truly amazing. Your staff was so wonderful in setting up and breaking down the tables. I was so sad when it was over. Nicole was thrilled when she entered; her eyes couldn't take in all the beauty at once. As she walked around, her face was radiant and I will never forget feeling like a queen myself. A perfect place for such a gala event."
