Easily 5 Stars

“Our experience with Celebrations on the River was easily rated 5-stars. From the organization of our wedding, all the way to our guests enjoying themselves, the staff at Celebrations helped make our wedding night special. Not to mention the fantastic style of the hall and the beautiful lights out on the patio. Our only two complaints are that we wish it were slightly more affordable and it would have been nice to see a few more smiles on the servers’ faces.”

Wonderful Staff. Even Better Venue!

“I wanted to express our gratitude for the amazing experience at Celebrations for the marriage ceremony of our daughter and her husband. First, the ambiance of the lit trees–the ceremony with a water-side back drop–the beautiful banquet area and sun room area–and overall flow of the space and aesthetics were perfect for our daughter’s dream wedding. And, thank you Adam for your patience with my half-a-dozen order amendments for the rehearsal dinner. And then Ann. She was amazing. She anticipated my requests. She even thought ahead of my requests that I hadn’t even considered and kept our event flowing smoothly. She did whatever she could to alleviate my concerns and responsibilities. Please feel free to share our words and gratitude with your team and know that you will have some new advocates for your venue with our family and wedding guests.”
