Centurion Palace

d. The only negatives I experienced: The catered food we chose was from Gio’s Pasta. We chose the Steak Marsala as one of the entrees. At our tasting, it was great. At the wedding, it was basically Salisbury steak with brown gravy. It was an absolute disappointment because my husband had raved about how good it was going to be wedding night. On site photography option. This seemed like a no brainer. Convenient and the photo book shared with us had gorgeous pictures in it. First, I received over 300 negatives. I was told they would pick out 150 to edit for the book. The edited photos never came and we had to keep asking, and eventually were told they were waiting on us to choose them. So, they edited some and sent them back. These edited photos felt like they were randomly grabbed from the group and just sent over. MANY we’re blurry and others, I could’ve auto filtered them myself. Initially we were to receive the book within a few months. Today, one year and four months later, it arrived in the mail. To say I’m disappointed is an understatement. It definitely doesn’t appear there was any thought put in to it. One picture in particular just has my niece and my’s torsos. The blurry ones made the cut and most are just VERY dark. Lastly, a good photographer will help you pose. If you’re uncomfortable or awkward at all being in photos, I’d advise you to choose your own photographer. This experience alone, makes me want to hire another photographer just to retake our wedding photos. Sadly, it would be extremely difficult to get the wedding party back together for something like this. And lastly, we went with the standard vows, and the entire middle section was left out. Neither of us realized until after, because nerves and all.

rything you imagine! LaDonna the wedding coordinator made sure every detail was done. Pat the DJ was amazing. Thank you to ALL the staff for making our special day wonderful

inability to provide services for the day.. but Maria went above and beyond is finding a last minute caterer to provide food with only hours to spare... and our guests had no clue there was even an issue. Everything from the decorations to the service was truly wonderful. Highly recommended.

ceremony and reception and DJ Pat did more than I even asked for. Maria and Ladonna saw that everything was perfect for us. We feel very fortunate to have found and chose Centurion for our perfect day! Thank you Centurion.

hanks to you guys we had an awesome day and so stress free. We would recommend that everyone take a look at this venue before making a decision. Thank you Centurion Palace!

tail. My daughter had her wedding here and if anything went wrong, we never new it. Everyone is so professional. It is clean, up dated and beautiful.

about and they would guide us every step of the way and they did. Ladonna, is amazing with the decor and just making sure that every detail comes together the way you imagine. I would definitely recommend this venue to anyone that want to get married but don’t want to be stressed out. On the day of the wedding everything was on point. Honestly, I can say my wedding was amazing and I owe it all to Centurian Palace!

t to get in touch with vendors. We had 4 months to switch our wedding from destination to local and Maria made it so easy for us! Centurion is such a great value and a BEAUTIFUL venue! I had so many compliments on how beautiful my wedding was. Pat was a fantastic DJ, LaDonna was a great day of coordinator and Maria was amazing at making sure all my needs and wants were met. I can not recommend this venue enough! We had the most amazing time dancing all night!

ood, Dj Pat & decor !!! This venue has everything all in one for a great price! I was stress free thanks to Maria and all her staff. The night was truly beautiful! The Outdoor Garden Ceremony was just the start! The Indoor Reception Just topped off the rest of the night! Please don’t hesitate! Book this venue!! We couldn’t have chose a better venue! The Ellisons ♥️

l with every question I have still might have lol. if you are looking for a beautiful venue this is it. we can't wait until our wedding day 2021, I know that day we will remember forever. Thank you Centurion Palace.

and all of the other staff were the best! The venue includes a voucher for centerpieces, it also includes the cake which is made by Cakes from Jula (DELICIOUS and friendly!), a DJ which was great, AND four different choices of food for your special day. Maria has never once not answered a text of a silly question I asked, she has always been there for us and we thank her for all of her help and letting us capture our special day at Centurion. Our memories will last forever! Thank you again Maria!!

ing. Everything happened in a timely manner. It feels so good when your coordinator is more prepared than you are and ready to answer questions. As far as I know nothing went wrong other than losing a button.

iful it was! That sold me on the place but I had no clue on how happy I would be with the service. I had to remember they were closed on Monday's but any other time I needed something they were available. Maria was extremely sweet! I texted her multiple times throughout the planning process and she always responded. She made sure to understand my vision gave me ideas I didn't even think of and seemed to be sincerely excited about any ideas I brought to the table. I loved Maria but then I met LaDonna at the rehearsal which just put it over the top. The rehearsal was great, LaDonna and Maria were able to keep everyone focused and reassured me they would be right there with everyone the day of to make sure everyone knew what was going on. The day of I was extremely nervous because it was storming really bad and the weather was not suppose to let up. They told me I would make the ultimate call and I had up to 10 minutes before to make that decision. They kept me informed and let me know what was going on. LaDonna was amazing. Every time I needed her one of my bridesmaid stuck their head out of the bridal suite and she was there. I feel I had her running back and fourth to the grooms room like crazy but she was more than happy to do it. She even went the extra mile and wore our wedding colors which was just a sweet touch! They let me decide to start a few minutes late but this allowed us to have the wedding outside like I had dreamed and it was gorgeous! Through out the night LaDonna stayed out of the way but made sure to let me know in advance when the toast, cake cutting etc. was. This allowed me to just enjoy myself but gave me time to prepare for these events. I would definitely recommend the Centurion Palace to anyone!

help tailor something to your tastes. I love how personable they are.

fore and she scribbled it all down and kept saying it will look much better when she types it up. My rehearsal came around THE DAY BEFORE my wedding. 1) she had all the bridesmaids and groomsmen lined up completely wrong. 2) she didn't mention anything to the readers about when they were reading. I had to ask her about it and then she was like oh I didn't know you had readers I don't have my notes...very unprofessional. Not to mention we were told there are 16 guest tables downstairs that seat 100 guests, (which is how many I had) so made 16 centerpieces and chose to have a head table instead of a sweetheart table. On my wedding day my mom and mother in law were trying to figure out why we had 2 centerpieces with no tables to put them on, they counted and there were only 14 tables. When my mother in law asked where the other 2 tables went Maria was extremely rude and told her she wasn't at the 2 week meeting. My mom heard that and came over and said she was at the meeting and Maria explained that the head table takes away 2 tables. We were NOT told that at the meeting. So my mom had to practically beg to allow them to move 2 tables from up stairs so we can have seating for all of our guests. Maria finally allowed it and said we would have to put them back up ourselves at the end of the night. Then there's the DJ....who was supposed to call two nights before the wedding to go over all the songs and details of the reception. He called the DAY OF my wedding while I was busy getting ready. The mics didn't work for my readers the day of either so no one could hear what they read. I am so extremely disappointed in this venue. Please think twice before booking with them. I'd hate for more people to waste their money there.

le rain. Maria and her staff were so attentive to my needs and determined to make my wish come true. They held off and swiftly dry the chairs once the rain succeeded. The entire planning process was amazing. The owners worked with my budget which was very tight and they made sure I had every moment I wanted to the smallest detail. I would not have changed anything about my big day. This venue is a true one stop shop! They have the food, cake, DJ, decor and your own personal planner and coordinator. They exceeded my expectations completely! Choose them and you will not regret it.

agenda. When speaking with Maria (the true owner), she spoke about Mexicans and unruly children, she also spoke on a lesbian wedding a few weeks before ours where both brides wrote wedding dresses and how it was odd to her. The cake by Jula was the best cake is ever had and the food was great as well. Everyone had a great time and the gloves were not known to those not aware of the plan. The DJ, Pat did excellent but is also the person that went over our contract, pushed his photography company, which led to us getting rid of our photographer, and have been threatened by Pat that if we continue bad reviews we will not get the pictures. Wedding was July 21, 2018, today is December 11, 2018, still no pictures. We have been threaten with deformation of character, but nothing I am typing is false. We have reported to the BBB, but since the photography/video graph part is not part of the company, (Pat Carson) with Carson Entertainment, a loop hole, there was nothing that could be done. Our wedding was beautiful but there were many mishaps. It's sad that this has come to this. We have had $1500 stolen from us as we do not have our product. We were called on our Honeymoon because our MOH wrote a true review and Maria didn't like it. We have even been told that we won't get the pictures unless we apologize, yet they have our money. Stay away from this place, everything too good to be true usually is.

r coordinator took care of everything! Maria even helped one of my bridesmaids hem her dress that came loose right before the ceremony last minute. Thank U Thank U Our Ceremony was gorgeous it was at sunset and it looked just like I imagined. My friends and family are still raving about how beautiful is was. Our Reception was great we loved the food and their staff were very friendly and courteous. DJ Pat is AWESOME we were dancing all night. He helped us with a surprise song change during our First Dance and it went off without a hitch. So glad we choose Centurion Palace we will never forget our special day. Thank You.

nd hard to plan with the little time we were given to meet. We were only allowed 2 days to meet for one hour each. This was to make all decisions of the event. Coordinator was extremely rude to my guest. Once the wedding was over they told everyone to "get out!" a family member forgot their purse and they stopped her at the door and did not allow her to go back in to get it. She had to describe where it was left and the coordinator went to look for it. I would not recommend this place.

breath taking, my guest love it. The food was delicious, the guest are still talking about the cornbread. The only problem I had was with the DJ, he did not play any of the songs I requested. He played the wrong song for our first dance and told me that is what I requested. I had to then YouTube the song to show him what I was talking about. I was upset because no one was really dancing on the dance floor and you know good music is what keeps the party going on. It wasn't until everyone was leaving when he started playing the music I requested. I was even more disappointed. Overall I enjoyed my wedding day, I thank Maria and her staff for making my day AMAZING.

ia and her Coordinator took great care of everything. I never stressed for a minute. The DJ Pat was awesome. I told him what types of music we wanted and he did exactly as we wanted with it. He even mixed a few songs in for our first dance as requested and it came out perfect. The food was excellent and the cake delicious! We appreciate all the care taken by the employees. They were very professional and kind. We looked at so many venues and we are so glad we trusted Centurion Palace for our choice. They really came through for us. Thank you!

tour with us. Then when I stated we are open to a sooner date if we can find the perfect venue and vendors they responded with “we have no tours available at this time...”. Not so great vibe and it was one of the only venues in our area that we were interested in.

eal. The garden was gorgeous and the event coordinator kept us informed throughout the evening to keep our wedding on track to be finished at the correct time.

that really do care about making your big day special. We moved from Colorado to Texas in August of 2016, and we had booked the venue in June, before we even saw it in person. I was nervous about booking a venue without touring it, but I am so glad we made the choice that we did! Maria, one of the owners, stays in contact with you throughout the planning process, and was always quick to respond to my sometimes too late at night texts! Her husband is the 'behind the scenes' guy, making sure the venue is set up the way you want it. He was also the bartender the night of the wedding, and he was so quick that a line never formed. The two of them are the most pleasant people I could have asked to plan our wedding with! The bakery that Centurion Palace uses makes the most delicious cakes, and going for the tasting was such a pleasurable experience. Jula, the baker, even helped me design a surprise grooms cake. All of the potential catering options for dinner were absolutely amazing, and we had a hard time deciding on which one to choose. We went with the Italian, and a month later, I am still having guests tell me it was the most delicious wedding food they've had! Their DJ, Pat, who is also the one you get into contact with about booking the venue, is very kind and helpful. He did a wonderful job of keeping the party going and has a great voice for announcing the members of the wedding party, the bouquet toss, etc. We bought the photography and videography package through him, and we are extremely pleased with the quality of media that we got. We also bought drone footage of our ceremony. Shelley is the wedding coordinator, and she also puts the finishing touches on the chair sashes, napkins, and other decor. She was simply amazing, she bounced between the guys and the bridal suite when we were getting ready to make sure we were all on schedule. She even did a great job of finding the groom when he had wandered out front before the ceremony to talk with family, and didn't falsely alarm me that "the groom was missing" until AFTER he was found! Haha! After the ceremony, she bustled my dress train when my maid of honor couldn't figure it out, and she walked us through each and every step of the reception, from the cake cutting to the bouquet toss. The package that CP provides takes care of practically everything, but your own clothing, hair/makeup, and florals. When I asked for a floral recommendation, Maria referred me to Heavens Rain florals, and Camilla was very pleasant to work with and design our bouquets. Our flowers were absolutely gorgeous. The venue itself is jaw dropping, with the ceremony site outside in a Tuscan garden with water fountains and a beautiful arch. They installed tall lanterns that lined the aisle the week before our wedding, and it was even more beautiful than I had imagined. Our guests told us all night long how amazing the venue was! We also got the photo booth that they offer, and turned it into our guest book. I simply cannot stop raving about Centurion Palace. Their service, care, and all around attention that you receive is incredible. I highly recommend this venue to anyone that wants to plan an amazing event without stressing over every little detail! Our wedding was the most relaxing, perfect, magical event we could have dreamt of.

l. Maria has been working with me for everything and she is totally available to my every need. I can't wait for my wedding in May. I worked with Maria on linen choices and I know it will be just as I wanted, beautiful!

st bang for your money with Centurion. They are family owned and so fun and easy to work with. From the day we booked a year ago we knew we made the right choice. They gave us a planning guide and were available practically 24/7 for my questions. On the Wedding day you don't have to lift a finger in decorating, set up, or clean up. You tell them your vision and wants for the day and they make it happen. I can't thank them enough for giving us truly the perfect wedding day and making the process not stressful at all. I LOVE this venue.

to prioritize my wedding was not exactly ideal. I could not have found a better solution for our important day than to book Centurion Palace. Not only do they provide an affordable venue, the overall experience you will receive the day of your wedding will go above and beyond any of your expectations. Their package allows for ease in terms of picking out the linens, decor, reception food, cake, music... anything you could want! Pat was absolutely amazing to work with and truly a professional at both event planning and entertainment. We selected the cajun menu choices and were flooded with complements from our guest on the taste and portion size. Also, do now worry about being restricted on their selected baker. I have had my fair share of wedding cake and ours was outstanding both in design and taste. I want to talk specifically about how my whole family was treated the day of the wedding. It was made clear to us that our job on that day was to sit back and enjoy the ride. That is exactly what happened. They treated my now husband and I like we were their most important wedding they had ever hosted. Their organization, positive attitude, and constant attention reflects their impeccable high standards. Our wedding was themed with Disney's Beauty and the Beast ballroom scene colors and rose accents. Simply gorgeous with their chandeliers and other enchanted touches. Both of our families still talk about the ease of our wedding day and how amazing the staff was. I know I have typed quite a bit but I truly feel like Centurion gave us a wedding that went beyond any expectations I had. If ease of planning and wanting to be treated like Queen and King on your big day, they are an amazing choice!

kage which helped my decision easy to make! On the other hand, the owner and staff used to run the place are very unprofessional, and I hate to say that about such a nice place. We happened to be over our amount of guests unexpectedly, and instead of telling one of our parents about it, the owner came straight to the groom to tell him how much money we needed to pay as soon as the ceremony was over. Thankfully our families took care of the issue and paid what was due, and there was still more than enough to provide for the amount of guests. Her telling us and allowing us to know really put a damper on our night, thankfully we let it go and moved forward. On top of that, the coordinator was rude to our photographer, the cop working became ugly with some of my family over going back in to get their items, and there was a vehicle towed after being there an hour after the reception ended. All in all, the wedding turned out terrific, but their customer service and treatment of our party was very uncalled for considering how much money we put into it as well as how special that day is to be for bride and grooms. Very disappointed in the owner and the running of the business.

at what she does. She's running her own venue however she always keeps your best interest at heart for example she will help you save money on certain aspects of the wedding. She's brilliant. She created floral arrangements identical to the ones I chose on Pinterest solely on a picture I sent. Everything was exactly as I imagined it she made my vision a reality and it was so perfect! There are a lot of other venues in the area however I'm so glad I went with a trusting kind hearted family type atmosphere that Centurion Palace offers!

really appreciated. My family still raves about my wedding being the best they have ever been to. And so do I !!! Thanks again for everything xo

you stay on top of everything. There is little to no communication and in the end all they care about is your money. This isn't an "all inclusive" place like it's promoted as. Everything has add-on prices and they up sell everything. Consider the base price just a starting point. We wish we had used another venue.

Maria and her team helped to truly make it a reality!! I felt like a princess. :) Thank you so much Centurion Palace!!

ue which includes everything except photography and flowers. And I mean everything: DJ service, table decorations, chargers, glassware, cake stand, THE CAKE, linens, the minister, you name it, they can include it. It even has a day-of wedding planner included which was great. You talk directly with the 2 owners to schedule everything so there's no he-said/she-said confusion. It ended up pouring on my wedding day and we had to do the ceremony indoors last minute but they were prepared and did such a good job my guests never even knew it was supposed to originally be held outdoors! Plus she refunded me the money I spent on extra decorations for the outdoor ceremony since I got rained out. Maria and Pat are both very kind people and willing to work with any budget. My guests commented on how beautiful of a venue it was and how great the food was. They had a blast and so did we. Thanks to Centurion Palace, my husband and I had the best night of our lives!

t they gave me. Michelle and Maria were so sweet and caring about our journey to becoming a bride and groom in our wedding planning. They were very flexible and made sure we were happy and satisfied with everything. We couldn't have asked for a better experience for our wedding journey and we couldn't have done it with out the help of the staff and Michelle and Maria's doing. It was a truly amazing experience and I loved every minute of our wedding! Thanks to Centurion Palace!

nted on how gorgeous and elegant everything was! Thank you Centurion Palace for the wonderful and beautiful memories!

ed with all my questions. We were able to match our colors and the event was fabulous. The staff was amazing and the event was perfect! If you are looking for a stress-free event- this is the place to choose!!!

me no matter how moody I was. On the wedding day everything was ready when I arrived and went off without a hitch! Thanks to everyone who made my day wonderful

her staff were great and of course we cant forget the DJ. The food was delicious and I will never forget our perfect day.

e gardens are gorgeous and the perfect place for the ceremony. The reception space is perfect for any size wedding and they customized the decorations to exactly how we wanted them. Our wedding coordinator, Shelley, was amazing!!! She made sure we had everything we needed and took care of any issues that came up. I would highly recommend this venue to every bride.

st affordable venue for what we received in return, and everything turned out beautifully. I couldn't have asked for anything more. The DJ was great, the ceremony and reception were gorgeous, and the staff were friendly and helpful. Maria took instruction from what I wanted and everything turned out exactly that way. She left no room for upsets or error and I am grateful for that. If I had to do it all over again, I would still choose this venue.

u are taken to another place. You forget where you are, and your heart begins to melt as you journey into life with your spouse...At least that's what I did! I absolutely loved the entire venue as well as the owners and staff! Wonderful customer service, and making sure that your needs and wants are met! Mrs. Maria, the owner is an amazing person to work with along with her Coordinator, and other staff. Pat will have you with NO WORRIES when it comes to the music, as he is the best DJ around the US---simply amazing. My day was all that I have ever dreamed of because of these great people at The Centurion Palace! They really cared about YOU and your wedding. My husband also adds....They were really helpful and sincere about helping me make my wife happy on her special day. We loved it, and will ALWAYS remember our special day and the Centurion Palace & Staff!

e thankful to Maria and her staff for giving us our dream wedding.

d Shelly did great catering and being with for the day. Maria was great, I could get a hold of her at any random hour for any random thing. I loved it.
