    We celebrated my daughters Quince on Saturday August 14th. We rented the Gold Hall and had 200 guests. Kathy and her staff were amazing. My guests raved about the food and the cake and how clean the place was. I would highly recommend this venue for anyone that is looking to have a big celebration. It honestly saved me a lot of time and headaches because everything was included, from tables/Chivari chairs, centerpieces, DJ, Sweets table, bar tender, limo. You chose your package! Thank you again , Kathy!

    White cake and pink chip not pink breading
    Lola R.

    This review is waaay over due. If I gave them 1 star is because they let my friends (hosts) have a shot of tequila (no shots are allowed) to calm their nerves from all the stress they caused them. I had gone with my friend to the food/cake tasting. The food was ok nothing spectacular. The cake we chose was cherry chip flavor because the breading was pink like the theme. Well the day of not only was the cake not pink, it definitely didn't have the design we had chosen, oh and it was pretty small. I think the tiered cakes from Sam's Club are bigger and cheaper. We helped pay for the cake and it was $450. The day of the event there was one person doing both pictures and video. Apparently it was also the responsibility of the hosts to drive him around because he just got dropped off. Being that it was one person clearly it's hard to do both and maybe that's why the pictures he captured weren't the greatest. The quality of the pictures honestly look like they were printed from a mobile phone. They have that slight blurry look and the color isn't vibrant at all. The video wasn't great quality either even though it was blu-ray. Photographer only captured pictures at home, at church, and a few at the park. Both sides of the family didn't get there picture taken because not everyone went to the park because they were doing other things to help the hosts make things smoother. The photographer didn't take many pics at the hall because he was busy taking video. The party bus arrived late and the quinceañera and her court arrived 15mins late to the scheduled mass time. At the hall they supposedly served 150 plates and ran out of food. There was several plates on tables that hadn't been served. Mind you the quinceañera and her court brought back take-out. The waitress explained to me that some ppl asked for 2nds and they can't say no...yes you can because if my friends paid for 150 ppl then 150 ppl should be served. After I brought this issue up to them and I told them I would yelp, the waitress then told me she could go to one of the other events and pull a plate for my family to eat but please don't give us a bad review. Are you for real right now? What makes me think you didn't pull plates from this party to feed another party? And do you honestly think you don't deserve a bad review. People pay good money for their event to go smoothly. An event with good memories. Especially for a once in a lifetime event for their daughter. Our friends did end up having more guests way after the food serving time. The hall chose not to let anybody in until more tables and chair were set up and paid for. After all screw ups the hall had, they still wanted more money. They obviously put you in a position where you have no choice because your guests are outside in line waiting to come in. So many things went wrong but thank goodness the banda was great and had the dance floor full but of course this was one of the things not contracted through the hall. My advice if you want to avoid a headache DO NOT BOOK THIS PLACE FOR YOUR EVENT!

    They told us we didn't have enough forks to serve the cake but these all came back from the venue

    Where to even start with this place! I wish I would have read the Yelp reviews before we signed the contract. This place has no concept of what customer service is. Kathy was late to almost every appointment we had to make our payments and would never inform us that she would be running late. Her excuse was that she doesn't text when she is with clients, yet she would sit on her phone for the majority of our appointments just ignoring us. When I tried to voice my complaints to her she didn't care. She treated us like total garbage. After repeatedly trying to rip us off the owner Kathy tried everything she could to ruin our event. The day before when we showed up to set up my parents tried talking to her and she told my parents that I was the problem, not her. We were also told there was no fridge to store our cake and when we asked where they normally store the cakes and the food that they provide they told us off. The day of our wedding, the venue was supposed to be open at 3:45 for the bridal party, but when we showed up everything was locked, even security could not get in. After getting in, we noticed that the beers that were going to be served had not even been put on ice despite the fact that the event was almost starting. At around 7pm Kathy informed my husband that we were almost out of beer yet at the end of our event we had over 200 beers left. We were also told that there was no forks left to serve the cake, despite the fact that our contract said that they would provide all of the disposable silverware and plates. We only decided to bring our own because we wanted something nicer than white plastic utensils. The worst part was that while unloading all our stuff after the wedding we found 4 packs of forks in a box that Kathy had attempted to hide the same way she did with the beer. Also in the middle of serving dinner Kathy decided to send ALL of the waiters on a break leaving our guests to finish serving the food. Kathy had an attitude and was super rude to everyone the whole night. I would not book this venue again even if it was free. This place should not even be in business. The only thing keeping them afloat is the money they take from people they rip off and all the cash payments they don't report on their taxes.

    Well to start off. Everything went perfectly on our wedding date on 10/27/2017. We received everything that was promised to us. The food the servers and the communication was always on point. Something that we really loved was that everything was done in a very professional manner. Kathy was the best because she was always there to help and to motivate me when she noticed I was feeling stressed. Thank you so much again for the excellent service. I would 1000% recommend this event service to anyone looking to have a stress free and wonderful event.

    Fiesta Max was amazing. Kathy and her staff where very attentive to us and our guest. Our party was amazing. I recommend them.

    See all

    I typically do not leave reviews; however, after my experience with this company, I feel it is…read moreimportant to share my concerns so other couples can make an informed decision. I selected Citrus Historic Park as my wedding venue, and as part of that agreement, I was required to use Timeless Timelines as my wedding coordination company. Initially, the planning process began positively. I worked with Makenzie, who was excellent--she was responsive, thorough, and guided me through the planning process. I believed she would be my wedding coordinator. At my 60-day meeting, I was introduced to Maribel and informed that she would be my day-of coordinator. During our meeting, we reviewed my expectations, décor setup, and floor plans for both the ceremony and reception. Maribel took notes and entered information into her laptop, which gave me confidence that everything was organized. Unfortunately, on my wedding day, many critical details were not executed as discussed. Without consulting me, Maribel changed my approved floor plan. The bar was moved from outside to inside, which caused long lines that interfered with guests seated for dinner. As a result, my younger sister had to sit separately from our family. Additionally, the appetizer table was never set up, despite being something Maribel had assured me she would handle. My unity table for the ceremony was also not set up. Instead, the box that my items were shipped in was placed on the table. This was extremely disappointing, as this table was meant to be a meaningful part of the ceremony. One of the primary reasons I chose this venue was the ability to make my grand entrance through the double glass doors. Because the bar was relocated indoors, this was no longer possible. Instead, I was redirected to enter from the side of the building, which required walking through water and mud. I also had no flowers at my ceremony. During planning, I explained that my reception centerpieces would be used to line the ceremony aisle and later moved inside. I specifically asked whether I needed to assign a family member to handle this, and Maribel assured me she would take care of it. This did not happen. Additionally, my ceremony music was incorrect because Maribel provided the DJ with the wrong song for the bridal party entrance. Guest tables were not set up correctly. The gold placemats that were supposed to be placed at each setting were forgotten. My aunt noticed this and placed them out shortly before guests arrived. When I later explained this issue to the owner, I was told it was acceptable because the placemats were eventually put out before guests entered, which does not change the fact that the setup was not completed as contracted. The bartenders hired through the venue were also unprofessional. When the credit card system stopped working, they refused to manually process payments and turned guests away, even though there was a required minimum alcohol sales amount for which we would be financially responsible. My husband and I paid an additional $1,000 to extend our reception by one hour, expecting the event to conclude at 12:00 a.m. with cleanup until 1:00 a.m. Despite this, centerpieces began being removed at approximately 10:30 p.m., and Maribel left the venue shortly after I did at 12:10 a.m., while guests were still present. This resulted in a complete loss of the extra hour we paid for. I contacted the owner to discuss these issues. Due to the holidays, we connected in early January, and I was told I would receive a follow-up. As of the second week of February, I have received no response. I paid for services that were not delivered and for commitments that were not honored. At this point, I am exploring legal options regarding breach of contract. My intention in sharing this experience is to caution future couples. Planning a wedding is stressful, and couples should be able to trust their coordination team. Unfortunately, I did not receive the level of service promised. While I cannot redo my wedding day, I hope this review helps others protect theirs.

Priscilla, the event coordinator was so helpful and worked with us in so many ways to customize our event. Unfortunately, we had to cancel and then rebook and she could not have been more accommodating and understanding of our situation.

I would recommend this company's excellent service, and this venue to anyone who would like to create a memorable event.

    ***Update. We attempted to resolve this by explaining our point over and over. She sent a…read morescreenshot saying there is a $450 fee for extra time. That is not listed anywhere on our contract we signed. We have reviewed the contract over and over and no mention of a $450-500 fee. (A hidden fee by this business). Also, she insists that the party bus with the Quinciañera and her court arriving early is not her fault and that's considered early arrival to the venue, granted it is not her fault, but we had a verbal agreement and permission to have them arrive early to her coffee shop next door. Our guest, the Quinciañera and her court were not inside the venue early as she keeps saying to justify her crooked actions. The only people who arrived at 5:20pm were my husband and I to set up the dessert table (which we could not set up the day before obviously) and also edible pieces on the main tables as party favors. Therefore, party hosts beware, if you book this venue, you will be charged extra time $500 to arrive even 40 minutes early, to do any finishing touches or set up last minute items. She agrees to your arrival but does not specify that it is considered additional time. All venues in my experience, allow the hosts time before the event starts, the day of, to do any last minute things. This venue will bill you by keeping your deposit, and not even let you know until you ask about your money. Again, nothing but dishonesty and a scam. My husband and I are honest people, who pay for all and any service we get, but this nightmare, has been nothing but a money grab with endless excuses and not a trustworthy business. Please do not book here and take your money elsewhere!

    DO NOT BOOK WITH ELVIA AND JUDY! THEY WILL RUIN YOUR DAY! THEY ARE SHADY AF!…read more First off, let me clarify that 365 events is NOT affiliated with The Life Arts Center. They operate independently and do not own the building. I was actually on a tour of Life Arts Center when Elvia approached me, claiming she could offer me a better deal. That should have been my first red flag that she was trying to poach me from someone else. I gave her a call, and we decided to visit the venue. When we arrived for the tour, Judy approached us and offered me a significantly higher price, almost $5000 more than Elvia had quoted. I informed her that this was not what I had been told. She apologized and claimed she had confused me with someone else. My fiancé and I expressed our interest in a specific date, which she confirmed was available. She promised to do everything in her power to make our dream reception come true, from setting up the venue to arranging every detail and being a coordinator. She even assured us that she would be present every minute of the day. Before booking I had made numerous phone calls and text messages to Elvia, inquiring about the availability of the same date. Every single call and text message, Elvia was able to confirm the date. The week that I had my appointment to go book my church, I talked to her every day and confirm that date we wanted was still available. The day that we had our church appointment, I had five phone conversations with Elvia . I let her know we were on the way to the church and once we were done, I would give her a call so we can go sign the contract. After I booked my church, I gave her a call and told her we were heading over to sign. The contract date was still available. When we arrive, Elvia was not there. Judy was there. My first question was if our date was still available she told me yes. I am a type A bride so I had every single question answered before we signed this contract. Headed over booked our date, sign our contract and she took our deposit. We were both an ecstatic that we had finally after a long process and touring many venues which had the date we wanted booked. We had finally found the one and had signed our contract and put our deposit down. Fast-forward to 2 1/2 weeks later, I am at work and I get a voicemail from Judy calling me by another name. I called her back to see if she meant to call me or if it was a mistake. She told me that she meant to call me. This is when it all fell apart. At this point, she proceeds to tell me that they have double booked my date for my reception. That they can go ahead and move my reception to another day?? Excuse me?? You want me to get marry at my church one day and weeks later come and tell my family and friends to come for my reception? I couldn't believe this happening! How do you double booked after almost 20 phone calls and text messages and us signing a contract. She claimed that somebody was going over the paperwork and they realized they had double booked. How do you to tell me you sign a legally binding contract without checking if the date was still available after almost 8 phone calls the same day and me telling you, I am coming over to sign the contract for that date. You mean to tell me nobody could bother to see if it was still available ? A no point in time did anybody tell me that it was booked or that anyone had inquired for that date actually I was told they had the whole month I was inquiring about empty. At this point, I was in tears at work because I cannot believe the unprofessionalism from both of them. I told them that now I have to leave work to go deal with this and I needed my deposit back. So, not only was I left with not Venue, I had to miss the whole day of work since this was around 9 am. I left work to go get my deposit back when I showed up Judy nor Elvia had the audacity to face me or my fiancé to apologize to us instead Judy sent her husband to give me back my deposit check. He was so nervous because they knew what they did was wrong and we have the right to sue them for breach of contract. He then tried to get me to still book with them at another venue and that they would give me extra items . At this point, I had no trust in them and felt scammed. I could not believe what they had done, to the most important day of my life. I left and took that check straight to the bank because I was afraid that it would bounce. I really think that they just needed my money or I they did give my day to somebody else for a higher price and then called me and told me they double booked. These people are shady.. It wasn't after this that I found out they they don't own the property which she claimed she did. And that this is not the first time they have called people and told them that they double booked their date. On top of that they have a reputation of going around and stealing customers from other people. Be warned! Don't book with ELVIA OR JUDY!
