Client Testimonials

Thank you to Heidi and all the staff for the most perfect wedding for our daughter and new son-in-law. They were professional, efficient, and so accommodating. Food was delicious, service impeccable. Special extras and attention given to the bride truly makes her feel like a princess. Their expertise made our day more than we hoped for. We wanted for nothing! By far the best wedding we have ever attended.... Even if it was our own!!!! Thank you so much!!!

Thank You to the Columns Banquets for top notch service, excellent food, and a beautiful setting, inside and out. My daughter Meghan's bridal shower was held here this past Sunday and I received many compliments from the guests on the food, the beauty of the venue, and your gorgeous outdoor space. Your courteous and efficient staff put us at ease, Ron was a huge help and pleasure to work with, and I can't say enough about the beauty of your venue. Thank You!

Dear Heidi, Ron, & Staff,Thank you so much for making our day perfect and so special. We couldn’t have done it without all of you. Everyone was complimenting everything. We can’t thank you enough.

Dear Heidi and Ron, Now that the wedding and the post-wedding festivities are complete I wanted to let you both know how very pleased I was with my daughter Becca's wedding on Friday. We had a perfect day as far as the weather goes. Your staff and facility were outstanding! I have planned many large banquet functions and I was most impressed with how everything was handled. The food was delicious. As my husband always says, hot food hot and cold food cold. That is how it was on Friday. I received many compliments from our guests on the quality of the food and the service.

You were very accommodating to my fussiness over details. Thank you. I tend to be a perfectionist and I couldn't have asked for anything more. The gathering room, the ballroom, the ceremony site and the cocktail hour on the patio were spectacular! And no yellow jackets to speak of!!!

Seeing Becca and Chris not stop smiling all night made all the hard work preparing for the wedding well worth it. My goal was to make their wedding perfect for them. With all of your help, we succeeded.

Please feel free to use my name if people want a reference for your facility. I know our Garden Clubs will be there in April, 2016 and I will definitely be letting other groups know about your facility.

Yesterday I attended a baby shower at The Columns and I was very impressed with the place. First impressions start at the front door and it was absolutely the most beautiful banquet facility it's better than some country clubs. The food was served with such elegance and we all enjoyed a sit down luncheon of chicken picata with twice baked potatoes and glazed carrots it was delicious. Our special cake was served with coffee and the service was with a smile. I would recommend Columns Banquets highly.

I was a bridesmaid at a wedding at The Columns over the weekend. The venue was absolutely beautiful & the food was delicious, but the staff is definitely what sets this place apart from the rest. Every single staff member that I encountered was friendly, professional, & efficient. Thank you for making my friend's day so beautiful!

Steven and I have a thank you note that we would like to share with you and all of the staff. I know we are almost 4 months late with this thank you, but please accept our apologies!

We do not know where to begin in thanking you for making our wedding day so wonderful. It was truly the wedding of our dreams and we could not have imagined a more perfect day. From the first day that we met you, when there was nothing but gravel, steel, and computer generated pictures, we knew this was going to be where we wanted our wedding. We felt a sense of excitement, which was something we didn’t feel at other venues. When we came to The Columns, we quickly browsed through the pamphlet then were whisked outside to envision what would soon be the ballroom and gardens. Jim’s excitement and passion showed and immediately we were excited about the new ballroom too.

We went home and talked about this big decision; compared venues, prices, themes and everything else that goes into planning a wedding. We always kept coming back to wanting to book with The Columns. When we would tell people that we booked a venue that didn’t completely exist yet they thought we were crazy, but we completely trusted you. Even though we were nervous that it would still be under construction, we knew we didn’t want to work with anyone besides your staff.

Like most brides, I was nervous to be leaving everything I had imagined and worked on for the past year in your hands. I thought to myself and often said to Steven, how do I know everything is going to be set up just how I planned? He always reassured me that you all are professionals who could manage it, and joked that I was just being a bridezilla. Heidi, you truly calmed my nerves when we went through everything on Thursday morning. I knew you would take care of everything and make what was a vision in my mind come to reality. Your advice to relax, breath and enjoy every moment is exactly what we were able to do.

On our wedding day we were overwhelmed with joy. Everything was set up perfectly and everyone treated us like royalty. The staff made me feel as if I was the most beautiful bride they had ever seen! Everyone was more than accommodating and made sure there was nothing that we needed or wanted the entire night. The servers continually asked throughout the night if there was anything else they could do for us. Things that you may have not have noticed you did mean a lot to us.

We received so many compliments on our wedding, and even the most difficult of our guests had nothing but good things to say. Friends said that we set the bar too high early in the wedding season because all of the other weddings they are going to won't compare to ours! Our guests were amazed at the beauty of the venue, the deliciousness of the food the professionalism of the staff and the way everything flowed perfectly. Four months later and people are still talking about our wedding.

We are truly thankful for everything that everyone did to make our wedding day so special. From the bottom of our hearts, we love and appreciate all of you. You have made our wedding day so memorable and it is a day we could never forget. Now we hope to be invited to a wedding at The Columns so we can come back! Thanks again for all you have done, we are forever grateful.

Thank You! Thank You! Thank You! Heidi, Candace and the banquet manager and waitresses. My daughter-in-law's baby shower was on Sunday, and it was amazing. The room looked beautiful, the food was delicious and everything was so special. I am still getting calls and emails from family and friends telling me how much they loved the food and venue. Thanks again for everything!
