Went to look here on our search. Heard the food is amazing from friends/family. Quote was very reasonable and was still working to work with us. Didn't pick because no real area for guests to go during event..

What do you mean there is no real area for guests to go to during event? I'm confused.

i think she is trying to say that there arent really any 'outdoor grounds' for your guests to roam about.. in a way i like that. so this way, the spotlight will be on ME... ahhahaha totally kidding... i hear theres a pool? and outdoor area... im not too sure. I just dont want to go there, fall in love and cry over the steep price....... ahhhh

Yes! Sorry for not explaining much. Basically it was a huge parking lot in front of the venue's entrance. The lobby is descent for people to stay but yes, I meant an area even outside, for people to go. You certainly want people to stay in the room dancing and such but I wanted the best of both words. Family/friends said same thing about pool/outdoor area but asked person helping us but they assured there was nothing additional. It's a really nice place though, def go and check it out!

I believe the pool area is private and has nothing to do with the wedding hall. I've been there many times and I have never even seen the pool!

They just recently built an outdoor area with outdoor heaters, fire pits and benches. Beautiful!
