It was a far drive for us but it was worth it as the scenery was beautiful. We arrived and they recorded us to a blanket with the prettiest picnic setup ever. We brought our own wine and they supplied a locally crafted charcuterie box and cupcakes. They have a beautiful barn and there were some gift items available for purchase. I imagine it would be an incredible place to boast a small wedding or summer event. After picking a bunch of lavender we watched the sun set with our wine and snacks while a guitarist serenaded us. The service was great and I would recommend it for anyone who likes a romantic evening.

The ceremony took place upstairs in a small room with flowers, it was a very welcoming room....but as I said, very small. They can only accommodate about 50 seats. The room was also very warm... So I hope they have air conditioning in the summer months! Moving on to the reception downstairs, it was absolutely beautiful and elegant. It's a big space with upstairs balconies, chandeliers, and large round tables. The food was grand. The fingerfood offered before the meal was the most I have ever seen available... (The selection could have been from the wedding package they chose) but I can promise you, it was plentiful and delicious!! So many selection of cheese, fondue, hummus, vegetables, crackers, bread, fruits, etc. It was awesome. The main meal was serves as a buffet and everything was hot and there were also many selections to choose from. The food was very good in my opinion. The bride told me that the planner was very easy to work with and it was a pleasant experience putting everything together with them for her big day! Overall, it was a great place for a wedding (specifically the reception). I would suggest to take a look here as a venue if you are planning a wedding in the near future!

Certainly, many a bride's dream come true in the making. Wedding receptions, engagement or anniversary parties, graduation or other special events held here will be memorable.

Who knew that Sears could look so chic?! Quite a make-over, indeed! Four stars for now. Let's see if this total flip is a flip in the right direction. Not a flop - when it comes to customer service, value, communication, collaboration with customers depending on them to make their special day outstanding.

I am amazed that the space was an old Sears. The space was beautifully designed, well thought out and is now a destination instead of turning into another abandoned building. In addition to the event center attached is the BFLO store, a hair salon, Chruscicki Bakery, Simply Pierogi and Sto Lat. The space itself is perfect for a wedding or your next big event. It is a large open and airy room with darker wood floors, light walls and furniture and gorgeous crystal chandelier and snowflake accent lighting. The interior design is very modern and elegant with touches of Buffalo subtly added in. Great lighting, tons of parking and a huge bar. To the back of the room are doors which take you to a hallway that connects to the other businesses in the complex. The hallway is large enough to accommodate mingling of overflow guests from the event center.
