She was organized, calm, and on top of every detail. She made the entire process feel easy and stress free. On the wedding day, everything ran smoothly because of her and DJ Syd. The photographer, whose name I sadly forget, perfectly captured our memories. The food was amazing (get the chicken piccata). Our guests are still talking about it. Every dish was fresh, well prepared, and full of flavor. The service was even better than we expected. The staff was attentive, kind, and truly cared about making our day special. Perhaps best of all, is the fact that we weren't nickel and dimed. Their pricing was up front and truly turnkey. The value for our money was amazing. If you are looking for a wedding venue in Las Vegas, this is the place. The Side Yard exceeded our expectations in every way. We could not have asked for a better experience.

Michelle was my coordinator and was very flexible when I wanted to come decorate, see the space and during every meeting.

I called him three weeks before my event to ask about the food. Which first of all it should've been him reaching out to me. When I called him, he was in a very bad attitude, and he said that my event was not the only event he had that he had multiple events. It's very disappointing because planning a wedding should be something special and exciting. The Chef made my experience terrible. He wasn't even humble enough to reach back and apologize for any miscommunication. Honestly, I would never recommend this place to no one because of the Chef. Now, if the chef was not part of this team, absolutely it's a good place to have an event. It's beautiful and everyone else is amazing. My end result was that I had to lose $2000 of my deposit to change Banquet Hall. I took this decision because I was not gonna leave the food in the hands of someone I did not trust. So three weeks before my event, I had to move everything around.

Farrar Wedding 2025…read more Absolutely an experience! We had our wedding event here on July 19, 2025. From the moment we sat down with David to discuss what we wanted, he was incredibly understanding of our budget and knew exactly how to make our day as beautiful as I imagined! Everything was beyond exceptional--our guests loved the venue and couldn't stop talking about how amazing everything and everyone was. I always have and will continue to recommend Factory of Dreams and/or Skyview Banquet Hall to anyone looking for a venue! That said, we did experience a few hiccups during the planning process. Communication with Chef Francisco G. wasn't the best--he wasn't timely in responding, which caused some stress. However, the food turned out good on the day of the event, though I was surprised and a bit disappointed that the kids were served Little Caesars pizza. As for Irma, who I was told was the event coordinator--she was very sweet and helpful in the beginning. But when it came time for the wedding rehearsal, I was told I had to find my own coordinator. This was frustrating because I had gone over all the event timing with her, so I assumed she would be the one handling it. If I needed to bring in someone else, I wish I had been told upfront--it would have saved some last-minute stress before my big day. And id also like to give a big thanks to the Bakery used Cakes Las Vegas so good with the flavors my husband does not like sweets but he did enjoy your cake. Despite these issues, I truly thank the entire team for their hard work and dedication. You all helped make our wedding a day to remember!

The flash flood exhibit was neat to experience with the water rushing down the rocks aggressively. Also, I had no idea there were animals outside such as the tortoise, gray fox, insects, and other desert animals! We loved just walking around a not-so-crowded museum for once. The gift store also has a bunch of cool stuff like a kids explorer vest, bighorn sheep plushie, and lavender and desert garden items.

You can also get on an old train and learn about history of Las Vegas. Outside, there is a playground, and a few animals so it kind of feels like a little mini zoo. They also have a cafe which we tried and was decent. One thing I really like is that they have different activities and workshops on certain days so it doesn't feel like you're doing the same thing every time you visit. On our last visit, they had an insect workshop with a UNLV student who taught the kids about different bugs. At the end, they got to make their own little bug hotel, really cute! They had also added a dinosaur exhibit where they had moving dinasaurs and a place where kids could draw and put it in a 3D computer and turn their drawing into a walking dinasour. Pretty cool for kids. So this is a great place to spend a few hours. It's fun and educational at the same time.

They're big time Disney fans so they had a Cinderella theme. It was easy to find this venue & there is plenty of parking. There was a security guard inside the door. The table settings were gorgeous. Everything looked so perfect. The colors were great!! The curtains that hung from the ceiling have lights all in them & when it gets dark inside & they turn them on it was soooooo pretty!! The guest of honor was able to arrive at the top of a staircase inside & walk down that stairs. There is also is a little room off to the side where they set up a photo booth. There was a young lady who was introducing the guest, her court & other guests. When the speaker announced it was time to eat & that she would call one table at a time I had NO idea where the buffet was. I thought it was going to be a long table of food but it was inside this little room. There were 2 servers & there was a little bit of a wait. It would of been nice if they supplied butter for the bread & plain spaghetti along with some black pepper. There was no salt & pepper shakers to be found. I was a little bummed not to see any seltzers or sliced lemons at the bar. Also it would of been nice to know it was a CASH ONLY BAR. I talked with my friend & she said she wasn't even aware it was cash only. That is something that the owners may want to tell their guest when they are looking to book this hall. I don't carry much cash on me & they were charging $10 for a Tito's. The girl also announced after they were done serving the food it would still be available for guests & just to let them know. I was actually hungry & could have gone for seconds but never saw anyone to ask. My friend arrived after the food was served with her 2 kids and no one came over to her. The staff was very, very slow to come pick up dirty dishes off the tables. I was not impressed by this. No one came to see if we needed our water pitches refilled. My empty drink cup sat on the table the whole night. I did like how they had a water bubbler next to the bar with cups to serve yourself water. It was pretty sad how the staff demolished the cake while cutting it. The pieces were all different sizes & just a hot mess at the end. See photo. They did a beautiful job on the setup & decorations but the staff definitely needs some improvement on taking care of the guests dirty dishes & checking on everyone. Due to this I'm giving this place a 4 star review.

Unless you want lots of stress, and possibly even having to find yourself a new venue at the last minute, do not book this venue. The owner makes lots of promises that he doesn't keep, he does not communicate or respond timely. In November 2022 he said the venue would be remodeled by March 2023, here we are in August and I just read a review that it hasn't been remodeled. In July during a food tasting I found out by the Coordinator that he couldn't provide the silver Chiavari chairs he promised, he said nothing could be done it was impossible knowing that he has a second venue, then he stated that he could put a green bow on gold chairs. My daughters colors are silver and green. Later he stated he would need to give me my money back, and for me to find somewhere else, 3-months before my daughters Quinceañera, then he stated he would keep my deposit, he is very sloppy, unprofessional, terrible communication. Your special event should be memorable and not stressful, go anywhere else give your money to a business that truly cares about you.
