Bon Appetit's Waterfront Sunset Crystal Ballroom

ey gave us time to relax and eat (bringing us food) before we were called in to greet our guests. We needed the food and drinks! The food was delicious and many people complimented on how tasty everything was. You can't beat the views in the upstairs room and they did a fantastic job at adding our décor and filling in anything that had gaps. Very professional!

orations, Nancy arranged everything beautifully! The only hiccup we had was that the valet parking that was advertised when I signed my contract was not available day-of and the parking situation was very difficult. I had a smaller guest list of only 55 so I waited until I was able to see everyone I knew was parking was able to get inside. That said, I would 100% recommend this venue to anyone! I LOVED my entire day and the food was fantastic, drinks were delicious, and we had our own waiter checking to see if we needed anything!

y had to provide minimal amounts of instructions. They really are pros!

t, and the staff was great. Many of our guests said it was the best ceremony they had been too. Many thanks to Nancy. The ceremony was by far the least stressful part of the entire destination wedding operation. And the pictures both from inside and outside the waterfront were beautiful.

party and sit down dinner upstairs in the smaller ballroom. We had a U-shaped table where everyone could watch the amazing sunset from their seats! Panoramic views. Nancy and the entire staff were top notch and we highly recommend the venue and team. The list of preferred vendors from Nancy was super helpful too. Thank you, Nancy!

mazing food, the great service from the wait staff, and the beautifully decorated ballroom. Excellent value and stress free experience. Everyone had a wonderful time !!

s so helpful and always was quick to get back to me! She made my planning so much easier!! The service was amazing! All the staff were so enjoyable! They were dancing with us which we loved! We didn’t need for anything they were in top of everything! It was truly gorgeous! And amazing! Thank you Bon appetit and thank you so much Nancy! You guys are amazing!!!!

like royalty!!

from start to finish, and the staff the evening of our celebration made sure everything went smooth as could be! The view from Bon Appetit is stunning especially at sunset, and the food was exceptional! We could not be happier with our choice to have our celebration at Bon Appetit!

azing as well. Nancy was helpful on the wedding day and hte entire planning process. The stars were the serving staff though! Some of the staff paid personal attention to family members or guests that needed extra support. They all were smiling and at points even danced and joked with people. Great experience and good vibes. The place is beautiful as well! Well organized.

edding meal I've ever had." (it's our favorite restaurant to go to in general). Even with a 1pm reception with no sunset, the views were stunning and still 100% worth it! Highly recommend!

, Bon Appetit is who Theresa and I settled on quickly. Theresa talked to Nancy Williams and viewed the available venues that BA offered. Even once we said that we didn’t want to use one of the upstairs rooms, having decided on just an intimate family dinner, Nancy worked with us to set up the perfect ceremony. On the day of our ceremony, Nancy had a beautifully decorated arch set up for us outside, right on the water. There were water and champagne stations set up, and our host Alberto kept the glasses full, even having non-alcoholic champagne available for the guests, if they so chose. The weather, location and views were perfect! After the ceremony, we all went inside to our table, and immediately, our waiter Alessandro, began to take our drink orders. They arrived, and we all ordered. As we found previously, the food at Bon Appetit was amazing. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed what they ordered. Conversation was easy, even though the piano was being played (quite well) right at the end of our table. The volume was perfect. Alessandro was extremely attentive without being overbearing, and Nancy checked in with me several times to make sure that everything was as expected. It was. All in all, a perfect evening. I have no doubt that Nancy and her staff will put the same care and pride into your event as well. Do yourself a favor, and give Bon Appetit in Dunedin consideration for your wedding or family event. I can’t see you being anything less than extremely pleased with how it turns out!

had fun too😃

lways communicated in a timely manner. Overall, my experience with Bon Appetit was nothing but top notch service and pure enjoyment on our wedding day!! I HIGHLY recommend using Bon Appetit for any event.

s put our minds at ease with any questions we had. The staff were all so friendly during our reception, making it feel effortless and so enjoyable. The venue was decorated beautifully, they paid attention to every detail, and could tell they treated it with the most importance. Our family raved about how delicious the food was, and how courteous the bartenders were. The list goes on & on... I would recommend Bon Appetit to anyone and know that they will go above & beyond!

side before heading to our tables. It was very affordable and just perfect for us and our laid back vision! Nancy was SO helpful all along the way and on our special day! Highly recommend!

y the venue was included in the price and really helped us through the planning process. All of their recommendations worked out very well. With tons of color choices and available decorations we were able to create a picture perfect setting for our big day within our budget. I gave me such pride to hear our guests say things like “Best wedding I have been to”, “How did you find this great place”, “The steak was cooked perfectly”, “We loved the food and beautiful view”. We are thrilled with our choice and will hold Bon Apetite in high regard as part of what made our day a big success. Our very special thanks to Leslie for helping us every step of the way and for all the coordination she and Nancy and the staff provided on the day so we could focus on our guests and each other.

tors were so helpful and accommodating, they made sure that everything ran smoothly so my guests and I could all just have a great time. The food was delicious and the coffee station was a big winner with me since I am such a huge coffee fan :) Overall my wedding was a huge success, best day of my life for sure and I owe a big thank you to Bon Appetit for helping make it happen!

with beautiful views ,great food and terrific service Bon Appétit is the perfect place.

ore to them, but did not expect to walk in the next day to so many more enhanced detailed decorations they included to fill in gaps. The upstairs room was breathtaking. For everything Bon Appetit includes such as the cake coverage, chair covers/ sashes, champagne, and food guests loved, it adds up to a great value for the reasonable cost. Multiple guests said it was the “best” wedding they have been to. I arrived with hair/ makeup done and was allowed to put my dress on in the upstairs restroom with sitting area to wait, which turned out perfect.

fect. The food was delicious! We had some very hard to please guests and all of them (kids and adults) were extremely complimentary. No one could believe that it was wedding food! We also opted to do a desert buffet instead of a traditional cake. They did desert shooters, cookies, and all kinds of goodies which the guests raved about. You could tell that the entire staff cared about the wedding. The waiters, after learning that some of the guests were vegetarian, went and got additional vegetarian hors d'oeuvres to bring to them, and remembered they were vegetarian for the rest of the night. They also made sure that a sampling of hors d'oeuvres were waiting for us when we returned from taking pictures during the cocktail hour. When finding out that we were headed down to take additional pictures at sunset while the guests were getting food from the buffet, they made up our plates for us so dinner would be waiting when we got back. Have your wedding here! It was the perfect combination of being incredibly magical and unreal and everything we wanted it to be, while also feeling like we were being taken care of by family members who cared so much about everyone there.

n the Crystal Ballroom and although our ceremony was small with only 50 people, we were treated like we had booked the venue for 500. We were treated with attention and care through the whole process. They took care of everything which is exactly what we wanted. Nancy was very responsive to our questions through emails. We were even able to come in early that morning to add a few personal touches to the reception room. There was a miscommunication about champagne being served at the reception, but the staff quickly brought up 50 glasses of champagne to make sure we had it and allowed us to settle the bill afterwards for the correction. It was our perfect day and I would definitely recommend this venue.

the wedding coordinator. I had complete confidence in here and never worried for a second! We had 70 guests and used about 3/4 of the dining area so many more would fit comfortably. We also had the service there - the staff decorated it really pretty. The ceremony space quickly transformed into the dance floor - which we kept full all night. Thank you Nancy and your team - terrific!
