My husband and I recently tied the knot at the Arts Ballroom and two weeks later we're still getting daily texts/remarks from my friends and family about how fantastic the food and venue were. The dessert room was a tremendous hit with both the kids and adults, everyone has a different food-based memory as the Arts truly goes over the top when it comes to food. We had a number of folks with dietary restrictions and everyone felt the venue handled their needs well and delivered high quality food.
We worked mainly with Taylor (after the original event specialist we were working with left the team between us signing the contract and us preparing for the wedding quite some time later) and she went out of her way to understand what was important to us, communicate what she needed from us, and coordinate with us when we wanted to ship a number of things to the venue as we live in NY (we shipped things and everything worked out great!). On the day-of she was always nearby and willing to help me get the wedding of my dreams, including having the chairs rearranged when I wasn't in love with the original design, making sure the chuppah was set up to our liking, making sure all the décor elements we brought were laid out according to our vision, and keeping me up to date on the schedule of the day. I have anxiety so having someone so attentive to my needs and communicative early on in the day melted away some of the anxious bride thoughts that popped up and made it so much easier for me to just enjoy myself and worry a bit less.
Everything that was important to us on our day was perfect. One small thing was that when we were asked the flavor cake we wanted, we requested raspberry marble (and had menus indicating that flavor to our guests) but when we cut into the cake we noticed it was actually lemon pound cake. While we were disappointed, the flavor of the cake wasn't that important to us and we didn't put a big stress on it so we weren't upset longer than a minute as the rest of the day was perfect.
Have your wedding at the Arts Ballroom if you want to have the delicious food-filled wedding of your dreams!
