Older venue, used for graduation parties and wedding receptions…read more If you are looking for a meat and potatoes kind of place, then you will be fine here. But Glitz and Glamour left this place a long time ago. The place needs a major overhaul. The sound system also needs upgraded, as we were stuck way in the back and couldn't hear anything said through the mics. We did have a good time, but I attribute that more towards the people we were with rather than the surroundings.

Connie 1 Reviews Even…read morethough Goegleins did a great job in catering my grand daughters wedding reception, they 'cancelled' that all out by sending me a substantial bill after I had paid for the catering services in full several weeks before the wedding reception. The accomplishment of having the whole wedding paid for was quite rewarding until I received another bill a week after the wedding reception. When I contacted Goegleins Catering about the situation, Greg Goeglein stated that they 'forgot' to add a charge and that it was 'human error'. He was very rude, arrorgant and very condenscending with his 'so called' apology. Of course I paid the bill which by the way was MORE than a couple hundred dollars. And will never recommend Goegleins to anyone after that encounter. Wedding: 10/11/2014 Services Used: Catering

"I cannot say enough good things about our experience with Ceruti's Catering! From start to finish,…read morethey made everything so easy, but the real star was the food--it was absolutely incredible. We had the beef brisket and almond chicken, and our guests are still raving about how tender and perfectly cooked everything was. Even with a large crowd, the hot food stayed hot and the salads were crisp and fresh. We also opted for the queso, which was a massive hit, and the chocolate fountain for dessert was the perfect 'wow' factor. The staff was professional especially Dominic hatton, efficient, and so attentive to our needs. If you want delicious food that your guests will actually remember, I highly recommend booking them for your next event!"

I can't say enough compliments about the Paddock!

We excitedly showed up with all our decorations and the place was in disarray. We had to fend for ourselves , including cleaning up the place from whatever had happened there last. We ended up calling in family members last minute to help us pull things together. I would never recommend that to anyone during what should be a special event honoring someone that is loved. When I reached out during and after the event, there was no response! There are so many great places to rent out, this is not one of them.

The building is nice and can accommodate a small to medium group of people. We had about 50 people come to our event and there was more than enough room. The tables were round and in good condition. They sat about 8 - 10. We loved that they were round because everyone could see and talk to each other. The seats were also comfortable and in good shape. The bathrooms were easily accessible and clean. We had a company cater the food, and they had plenty of room as well as amenities in the kitchen. If you want music, they can hook you into the sound system, but it requires a regular jack, so you will need to bring the appropriate equipment for that. They offer drink services for a flat fee as well as coffee. Now, the only improvement I could think of is that they need a bigger sign or something that let's you know where to turn. We had several people who missed the turn. But that is a small issue. Overall I highly recommend using this place for your event.

"Where it All Began…read more. In 1893 Wing and Mahurin began construction on Robert and Clara's Romanesque styled mansion. Same architect as the University of Saint Francis' Bass Mansion and The History Center both in Fort Wayne. Robert served as a 2 time state senator, assistant U.S. Commissioner for Indiana, huge investor in natural gas, (the reason Fort Wayne & even Chicago got natural gas when they did) and was a prominent lawyer. Clara helped form the first classes at the Fort Wayne Art School and was the co-founder of the Fort Wayne Museum of Art. The couple was originally from the Muncie area but moved up here for business purposes. They were a very prominent couple during their years here in Fort Wayne. Not only did Clara leave her forever footsteps at the Art Museum, Robert's law firm is still going strong known as the Barrett-McNagny law firm serving the local area still today. They only had one child Bessie but unfortunately due to illness died at 11 months old. After Robert's death in 1901 the home was sold to William K. Noble who ran a lumber company that operated in 3 states. His family of 3 lived there for 22 years and sold the building for $50,000 to The Klaehn Funeral home. In 1935 the west side addition was added due to high demand. At this time funerals were no longer held in the residents home as they were done in the 1800s. Today there are over 14,000 square feet in this absolutely breathtaking mansion. No detail has gone unnoticed. It remained a funeral home for over 93 years. Until they left the building in 2018 and the Sturm's bought the building in 2020 to preserve its beauty. We want to preserve our precious history first and foremost. History is the reason why we are all here today! We are SOOO PASSIONATE about preserving and sharing this place with the world!" My friend Jesse from JMH Fotografy https://www.facebook.com/jmhfotografy?mibextid=2JQ9oc https://instagram.com/jmhfotografy?igshid=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ== was one of the invitees to do a Spooky Photo Shoot. Every room ( and there are lots of them ) have original wood work, beautiful pocket doors. Chandeliers, staircase is beautiful, stained glass, big open spaces. Since this was a funeral home for nearly 100 years there are bits and pieces of that history still here too. The building had a great vibe inside and out. They are raising money for more renovations so book an event. And call Jesse for photos. I was his assistant for the day. We had such a great time.

This is pretty much the place to get a drink in the market, so you can imagine that it gets crowded (and it was). There was only one bartender there when I visited on a busy Friday evening, and he was flying around making drinks, but he would get distracted often and forget what he was doing. It took about 20 minutes to get a beer! Speaking of beer, there are maybe six different beers on tap, and I only saw one that was local (Sun King). Union Street Market gets very loud, and because this bar is located in the middle of Union Street Market, you will probably have to shout to order like I did.

It's beautiful without feeling overdone, and it has such a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Jennifer was honestly amazing to work with. She kept us organized, answered emails quickly, and made the whole process feel manageable instead of overwhelming. She has such a calm and professional presence, which was exactly what we needed during wedding planning. On the day of the wedding, everything ran so smoothly, and we didn't have to worry about a single thing. One of our favorite parts was how seamlessly everything flowed. The transition from ceremony to reception felt natural, and our guests were comfortable the entire evening. We received so many compliments about the space and how well everything was set up. If you're considering The Eden, book the tour. It was the best decision we made, and we're so grateful to Jennifer and the entire team for making our day unforgettable.

My son and daughter-in-law just got married and chose The Eden..... 1. It's WAY out there, w/nothing around. Just in case you forget something. 2. Not a good setup. Girls prep area doesn't have a restroom?? Not enough outlets for curling irons, steamers, etc. There's a barn door between the staff area and the girls' prep area that doesn't close well. No privacy. The guys area is a joke. They get the bar area and then hurry up and pick up before your guests get there. 3. The bathrooms are filthy, and the lighting in the women's restroom is terrible. 4. Appetizers were served during happy hour. The table, which was devoured, was left that way until after dinner. It needed to be picked up and removed. This is where I needed my camera. Meat on the floor..... 5. Outside wedding - but no one mowed...? Really. Becareful if you are outside - ruff terrain. Not good for elderly guests. 6. BUT THE TRUE KICKER WAS..... air conditioning not working during a 90-degree day.... it was miserable. Thank God my kids were happy. But the next ones in line said, "Not a chance, would I pick that place". Good luck to those of you that have already booked.
