Because of a mix-up at work, we arrived about an hour late. It was clear that almost everyone was done eating or at least finishing. However, the food at the buffet was still hot and fresh. There weren't any apparently available seats at the set tables (it was hard to tell where people were sitting) so we ended up sitting at an unset table right next to the set tables. I was a little surprised that none of the servers seemed to notice that we had sat down and were eating but were missing many of the things from the regular settings. No one asked if we needed water or coffee, and we were completely skipped over when they served cake. In all fairness though, we did arrive an hour late and, with people mingling, it would be hard to know whether we had just arrived or whether we had simply moved from our table to chat with others. That single complaint aside, the food was good, the space was lovely, and the family members who organized the shower had nothing but good things to say about having had it here. (In fact, they had switched from another venue to this one.) I'm a firm believer in reviews that give you the big picture experience. And that I think that experience here is 5 stars. So if you're out in the OP area, consider checking out La Galleria.

Michael's checked off every box right from the get go. When we toured Michael's they were repainting their rooms and had recently had new carpeting put in. The manager, Nathan answered all of our questions and made us feel very comfortable with having our reception there! We met with Renee a few months before our wedding to pick out our menu- we went with the dual plate option, the filet and the chicken bruschetta. The day of our reception, everything was absolutely perfect. Our guests are still raving about the food (the grilled cheese shooters were a hit during cocktail hour) and everyone loved dinner. My husband and I could not have been happier with the service we got and would absolutely recommend Michael's to anyone!! Thank you to the staff at Michael's for making our wedding reception so special!!!

I will say that I was a little bummed that we weren't having our wedding here initially but seeing it changed my mind a bit.

It's not what I expected but I'm glad so many people have turned it into a beautiful setting for their weddings.

My husband and I just got married at The Admiral Room, and it's tough to know where to begin…read morebecause we have so many great things to say! This venue is so much more than just the gorgeous room and building. Every step of the process had a very personal touch. The Admiral Room staff were accommodating beyond what would be expected of a venue. If we needed or thought of anything at all, they were only a phone call away. Our favorite part of the planning stage was our 100-day meeting/food tasting. That's when we met Josh- who would ensure everything ran perfectly smooth, and Chris- the head chef. They were both the type of people who can meet you, and it just feels like you've known each other for a while already. We went over the menu and schedule of events in detail, but at the same time it felt like we were just hanging out. They were extremely willing to tailor every aspect of the event to exactly what we wanted. It was a welcome change from the normal stress of wedding planning. Thanks to this amazing team, our big day went even better than we could have imagined. We had guests coming up to us and complimenting every little thing, from the outstanding food, to the bar staff, and wait staff. Because of the built-in sound system, everyone could hear all of the ceremony. We had both a band & DJ for the reception, which both sounded great as well. The Admiral Room will always hold a special place in our hearts, and if we could do it all over again, we'd absolutely do it the same way. Thank you Cyndi, Josh, Chris, & the Admiral Room staff for providing us with the wedding of our dreams. All photos by Jessy Herman Photo.

She had her sisters plan…read moreher wedding and even pick the venue, which was to be a surprise to her, on the day of the wedding. I had suggested to the girls to choose Buducci's, on the recommendation of a friend. This wound up being a HUGE mistake! We met with Vincenne last year, to discuss pricing and other details. She gave us a price and said that if we booked at that time, we would be locked in at that price, so after some phone tag and some time passing because she was out of town, she was provided a deposit and we booked. She also said if there was no event going on the day before, that we could decorate a day ahead. As we got closer to the date of the wedding, we contacted her. We were told that the price had gone up. The girls just let that go, even though we were supposed to be "locked in", and attributed it to covid, and seemingly everything costing more now. She said that there wasn't an event the day before the wedding but that she would not be in town so we couldn't decorate the day before. Since we would be decorating the day of, we asked if we could have the girls get ready there, that way we would save time and do it all at once. She agreed until A FEW DAYS before the wedding, she informed my girls that we could decorate the day before because she made arrangements to "accommodate us." Great! But we still needed to get ready there because we had our timeline situated and it didn't account for transportation and we told the photographer, hair and makeup we'd be doing it there. When we verified we would still be getting ready there, she said no, she ASSUMED that meant we'd be getting ready at home. This was because Vincenne was now attending another wedding the day before and, while she kept insisting she was accommodating us, it became clear she was trying to accommodate no one but herself. No one would be there to let us in. When my daughter told Vincenne that this would be a huge inconvenience, since everything had already been planned, she got quite snippy with my daughter on the phone, telling her she hadn't even spoken to the bride yet, and hadn't received a check yet. My daughter reminded her, that this was a surprise for the bride, and also told her that she would be willing to bring her a check right then and there, if she would only give her an exact TOTAL, which she had not given as of yet. Then Vincenne said just give it to her on the day of the wedding. When my daughter spoke to her again, she said we could get ready the day of, at a business that is right next door to the venue, but made sure that she complained to my daughter that it would be a huge inconvenience for the owner of that business for us to use the space. She then also said that we could in fact decorate the day before, but she would have to pay someone to be there while we did so. Who cares!! Don't go back in your word and then complain when you have to somehow accommodate!! Then, here we are, the day of the wedding. We had the venue until 11:00 p.m. but at 8:30 there is Vincenne, taking down tables in the corner, suddenly the bright lights go on, making it look to our guests like it's time to "close up shop!" The open bar time frame had just ended and it switched to a cash bar. Well we had 3 people standing in line to get drinks while Vincenne had the bartender taking down our dessert table, so there was no bartender!!!! Our guests just went and sat down without getting a drink. In our videos of our family on the dance floor, we have Vincenne rolling her cart in the middle of the video collecting things off the tables. I would not recommend this venue to my worst enemy!! In my 67 years, I have NEVER come across anyone running a business, that was so unprofessional, rude and ignorant!! I had read a few reviews saying that she had unexpectedly shut down events and made people leave. But since we saw more good reviews than bad, and it being recommended by a friend, we decided to go with this venue. Like I said ... HUGE mistake!!! Do yourself a favor and steer clear of this place!

Although I've been here for meetings in the past, it was fantastic to see this space come alive for an event.

That's how you know they note every. single. detail. Everyone raved about the appetizer display, plated dinner with seconds offered, and the beautiful fresh and light lemon cake. Our wedding was just 3 days ago and I have already heard from about 40 of our guests that this was the best food they've ever tasted. We could not have made a better choice for our catering service for our wedding! Don't hesitate to choose Frontier for your event!!!
