I rented this event center for a private holiday party! The lady i spoke to was friendly and…read moreanswered all my questions. I made good use of the fridge and counter and there was plenty of room for the games we played, seating, and had fun dancing to the dj. Didn't have to worry about much. Bathrooms worked well and that was important to me. I didn't have any problems communicating with setting up prior to the event It held 80 people easy and the yard was well kept and nice for the potato sac game we played, and the corn hole game. I've booked another holiday party for next year and would highly recommed this place for my friends and family to do their gatherings. Four out of 5 stars because the parking was a bit confusing to.figure out. Plenty of space, but not lined so I needed to get some cones and figure it out (likely cause I overlooked this part and didnt ask..lol).

I had an event on April 26th for my baby shower. I met with Kristen who is the new event…read morecoordinator here, when meeting her she stated how she just took over this space since it transitioned from a church to an event space. I had planned this event since the beginning of the year. We were asked to give a deposit to reserve the date, she was late and had forgot so we had waited for her to arrive even after rescheduling from the original date. During the time between I had asked to confirm how many tables, how many chairs, how long were the tables. Which I was told there was 10 tables and seat 60 people which was perfect because that's capacity I was expecting for my event. When asked to confirm the table length I was told she was going to check the next day and then I heard nothing from her for two days. I reached out again where she gave me excuses that her husband had doctor's appointments and what not. I did not care, just needed the information for decoration purposes. The week of my event she asked me to call her regarding the payment (I had her on speaker with my partner in the car listening) I said I could meet at 7 and she said she goes into work at 3am and goes to bed at 7pm. I told her well if that doesn't work that I can zelle her which she was ok with (she never once stated anything about a walk through). The day of my event a few days later my partner arrives at 12pm and sends me a message saying we're going to need more chairs, my response was why she stated she had 60 chairs. He's telling me there was on 30 chairs available. Mind you this is the hour before my event which was to start at 1pm (she does not give you time for setup or breakdown of you event you have to pay for additional hours). I asked to speak to her she said she doesn't recall us talking about chairs just about how many tables and that there are only 30 chairs available, I told her she said there was 60 chairs 6 chairs per table she goes on and says to let her call the owner and see if he took any chairs. I arrive at the location she tells that the owner removed some broken chairs and I told her now I have to find remaining chairs in the hour I have to set up for my baby shower and pay out of pocket she said that's why she "wanted to do a walk through" when collecting final payment which was another lie because she never stated a walk through. I asked her if she is going to remove what I'm going to have to pay out of pocket from what I paid her for the event space, she said no. She started getting a bad attitude and extremely rude in front of my decorator and family saying that if I'm not happy that the owner said I can take my event somewhere else. Like wtf?! So unprofessional! I told her it's not personal it's business and you stated there was 60 chairs and now because you can't remember it's my fault and you have the nerve to tell me at 8 months pregnant with 1 hour to set up my event that I could take it somewhere else after I already paid you and gave you deposit?!!!!!!!! She lingered around for the 30mins and had the nerve to ask me if I need help finding chairs I told her I had it handled so she could leave and out of my face! Her own husband was telling her to be quiet after what she said to me. I do NOT wish that unprofessionalism on anyone's event and hope you don't bring her any business! She will learn as a new event coordinator and the owner as well that is NOT how you treat nor talk someone that has already paid you for a service. I kept quiet until she sent me my deposit back and I am warning all of you of my experience with Kristen. FYI: if your going to run a business your schedule needs to work with others schedule you can't expect everyone to be available when you want them to be just because you work at 3am it's called sacrifice and clearly you can't do that for the sake of the business

We had a small wedding (60 guests) but the place would have easily accommodated 100+. All of our guests, including ourselves, came from the Sacramento area - it was my maid of honor who discovered this gem of a venue and we could not be more grateful. The place has an indoor area - where we set up the buffet and reception, and a charming outside garden space for the ceremony and dancing. In addition, we were blessed to receive a tremendous amount of support and help from the owner, Lisa, who went above and beyond to make me a relaxed bride by helping out with the planning and logistics for our special day. She is one of the kindest and most helpful people we've ever met. Thank you, Lisa, for making our day so memorable!

Hey, it was his idea, not mine. I'm told there were close to 500 guests for this reception, and I believe it, Walnut Ave Community Center is a huge reception hall. The entrance had enough space to set up photo backdrop so you could get a shot taken w the bride and groom by her photographer if your timing was right, but still not interfere w guest traffic. The reception room had a smallish bar area for the size of the hall, but it worked well enough. There's also a stage set-up which can probably be removed if need be. The bathrooms could use a bit of updating, and perhaps at least one more stall for the ladies.

The Ranch at Lone Oak Longhorn in Marysville is undeniably beautiful -- a hidden gem in terms of…read morescenery and layout, perfect for couples looking for an outdoor wedding venue. Unfortunately, our experience with the venue management -- specifically the owner, Erica -- left us deeply disappointed. When we first toured the venue, Erica made the experience feel magical. She promised us access to many features and areas of the estate, and spoke in a way that made us feel confident and taken care of. However, in the weeks leading up to our wedding (especially the final two), communication became increasingly difficult, and many of her promises either changed or weren't honored at all. Several things were said verbally that were not reflected in the contract, and Erica often contradicted her own words when we tried to clarify. For example, she had told us we'd have access to the entire house (minus the honeymoon suite) on the day of the wedding -- but then later restricted access and was uncooperative with our coordinator. We had paid a cleaning fee, so this limitation didn't make sense and wasn't disclosed upfront. On the day itself, the venue wasn't well prepared. There was no toilet paper in the groom's suite, broken pool sticks, cobwebs, and no trash cans in the bridal suite -- details that show a lack of attention and care. Even more frustrating, Erica and her family were hanging out inside the house during the wedding -- in spaces we thought were reserved for the wedding party, vendors, and family. That felt like a major breach of boundaries. But the biggest shock was when Erica helped herself and her entire family to our wedding dinner before my husband and I even got our plates. They used the custom plates meant for us and were not listed anywhere in the contract as people we were required to feed. This felt incredibly disrespectful. The venue itself has potential, but future couples need to be very cautious. Get everything in writing. Don't rely on verbal promises, and ask very specific questions about house access, vendor interactions, and what is expected on the wedding day. I genuinely hope this review helps others avoid the stress and disappointment we experienced.
