We hired her for our wedding, and I wish we would have went with someone else…read more It was IMPOSSIBLE to get a hold of her. I would email her over and over again. Call. And I would get a response a few days/weeks later. And her response was always "I'm sorry I've been so busy". Which I understand. But that's why my husband and I hired this company because their job is to do this. It was very stressful when we didn't hear things for weeks. We also talked about cake flavors via email and come to find out on our wedding date, she never ordered one. I mean. Why would we talk about cake flavors and then not add it to the bill?! It was my fault also for not double checking the bill. What wedding doesn't have a cake!?!? When I called her , because she just left without saying anything, all she said was "all I can do is bring a fake cake". How are my guests going to eat this. So I had family run out and buy a few cakes. It was embarrassing . Being a nurse working 12 hours shifts at night, working 4-5 days a week. It was hard to meet up. Because I work 7pm to 7 am. So when I emailed her a few times to fill out the layout for the reception, she never replied. My husband called her a few times and she said to re-email it back. But did I ever get a response? No. I ended up just filling out the layout myself. When I asked her what her PayPal account name was, that's when I got a response right away. Seriously , I would not recommend them to anyone. Which is a shame, because my sister hired them a few years ago and they did fabulous. I'm not sure what happened for my wedding but it was awful. Very unfortunate.

My fiancé and I met with Autumn, the event manager at Renton Fairwood Golf Course, to discuss…read morereserving our wedding date. She was kind and welcoming during our initial meeting and mentioned that email or text would be the best way to communicate, so we followed that advice. Unfortunately, after that meeting, it became difficult to hear back from her. I waited about a week with no response and had to reach out multiple times (3-4 follow-ups) after being told, "I'll get back to you." Our last message was left unanswered, which was disappointing since we were genuinely excited and referred by a friend who had great things to say about her. We completely understand that this was before we put down a deposit and don't expect top-tier service. Though this was a very meaningful date for us, and we had agreed to keep communication clear to secure it. There are no hard feelings, but we wanted to share our experience so other couples know what to expect when trying to save their date here. We truly wanted this to work out and wish the team all the best moving forward.

Let me start with the good. We had a great time at our wedding. That's where it ends. We had issues…read morewith the owner so many times. At the first meeting the coordinator didn't show up. We had to remind them multiple times to charge our card for the agreed payment plan. They gave us trouble when we asked to move the ceremony outside due to covid restriction change. During the meeting with the canopy company, the owner told me she was going to charge us more for the set up which was no different other than the chairs were going outside instead of inside. When I asked her why, she said, "that's how business works and I won't argue with you anymore ", then rudely walked away from me. Two weeks before our wedding they tried to change our rehearsal day because they double booked. The day of the wedding we showed up at the agreed upon time and the coordinator was meeting with another couple in our space and our chairs were NOT set up yet. The drink tickets had the wrong last name on them (my last name which is my ex husband's name). My fiance was livid. Then we were told the coordinator picked up an undisclosed amount of PREPAID drink tickets off the table that guests should have been able to use. Then in the middle of a pose the owner stomped over and made us move out of a grassy area my photographer had shot in many times before. Mind you, we were NOT on the green or in anyone's way. The owner is rude, has zero customer service skills and her organization and communication skills are terrible!! I would not recommend this venue for your event. While it's lovely and the food is good, it's not worth the headaches.

While making my way back Me and someone else watched a manager take a dish that was brought back to her, move everything around with her bare hands and told one of the servers to go give it to someone else.(this all took place right out side the doors to the ballroom). Me, being pregnant, was very concerned and made sure not to eat any of the food. It worried me and there were three options for food steak, fish, or a vegetarian dish.. this was cross contamination at Its finest. Hopefully nobody was allergic to anything.

Another demerit was the dance floor - meaning there was none. The gated tables you see are VIP ($120ea) to sit down, otherwise, your behind the gate standing the entire time, or dancing.

This critique may be more for the event, rather than the place - but, the disappointing experience has lumped them together.

He's always quick to respond via e-mail and text. He provides all the information and takes payments up until a month before your event date (which is super helpful). The hall itself is awesome. It's spacious, has all the tables and chairs, has a full-use kitchen with refrigerator. Plus, pots, pans, dishes, utensils, anything you can think of really. My brother-in-law even got married here (loved the place after our baby shower, and the pricing is just too good to be true). If we have another event in the future that requires a big space, we'll definitely rent here again. I would 10/10 recommend this place if you're looking for a big space with full-use kitchen, and pretty much everything besides decorations lol

This is a great spot to have a celebration especially when it's not a big one. I really like how there's a kitchen. Especially if you're cooking for your event it's really convenient.

I would recommend this rental if you're doing a celebration for all sorts of things.

Great experience overall with Renton Pavilion Center/Rain City Catering. We used this venue for a…read more1st Birthday/Baptism party for about 150 people. Marsha was our event coordinator and I cannot say enough positive things about her - she even helped us alter parts of the menu to help with our budget - thanks Marsha! Food was great and affordable! For food tastings, they invited customers to come on a scheduled night to taste (there were people from about 6 other events the night we went) - which was great because a buffet was set up for us to sample different choices from their menu. The venue itself is huge! All of our family and friends were so impressed with the spacious room and high ceilings. Like others have said, the only concern I'd have with the place is parking - luckily the transit center parking garage is a very short walking distant from venue. While the day of our event was hectic in our end, everyone at Renton Pavilion Center helped make it go so smoothly. Their employee, Daniel, really saved us with all the technical issues/concerns we ran into, and the rest of their team were just really nice. Thank you all for making our event such a successful one!

Brittany of Sei Anders Events was by far one of the most bang-for-your-buck investments we made for…read moreour wedding. Her price was definitely worth it considering all she did in the months leading up to the wedding, and the fantastic job she did on the day of the wedding itself. We had a fairly complicated wedding: 8 people each for our groomsmen and bridesmaids, for a total of 16 people in our combined wedding party, a two-day reception, karaoke, trivia, and Brittany helped us glide through it all. During the dinner rehearsal Brittany was able to break down the ceremony into precise steps and take command, resulting in a very concise 30 minute rehearsal and so much more confidence going into the wedding. The months leading up the wedding are critical. Brittany helped us get all of our ducks aligned, and is a wonderful hype-woman leading up to your wedding. Planning can get very stressful and having a 3rd perspective is such a breath of fresh air. Seriously would've ripped my own head off without her reassurance. On the day of the wedding she took SO much of the stress off of our hands. She knew the plan like the back of her hand and was able to direct everyone, allowing us to catch our breath. For couples who are thinking about whether a coordinator is worth it: I cannot stress enough how stressful the day would be without someone running the show, and that someone is going to be you if you don't hire a good coordinator. Brittany was worth every penny.

My only complaint is that they provide only disposable plates and utensils--and not the classy kind. So we had to rent some. Oh, well: $12 a head for food that good is still pretty dang good.
