We loved Core! The staff was great and super helpful. They were very flexible with us especially during wedding week/day. It is a beautiful place, the staff was great, and our guests still say how great the food was! We would recommend to anyone.

If you are looking for a large venue that can support a 200+ wedding, this is the place! The ballroom is a great space to turn your dream into a reality. The staff were very helpful in the planning process and the day of coordinator made sure everything ran smoothly. I couldn't have asked for a better support staff. It was exceptionally convenient to have so many things offered by the core event center including the bridal suite, photo booth, shuttle, bourbon room for the groomsmen, rehearsal dinner, and after party. And.... well the FOOD was absolutely AMAZING! We received so many compliments throughout the evening about how great the food was from the appetizers to the entrees. The buffet line went fast and smooth. There were no complaints about the food or the service. It was a perfect day, and we are so glad we chose the Core Event Center.

From start to finish….The Core was with us the entire way!
We were up in the air about our rehearsal dinner and reception until we walked into The Core for a great dinner and great staff conversation; we ended up seeing their new Bourbon Room and made a decision that night-couldn’t have been a better one!
Their planning and capabilities to handle things, even when issues arise or changes are needed to be made-they were friendly, helpful, and constantly in contact about everything throughout the wedding process.
Tony, Joe, & Rob were professional yet down to earth, honest, and treated us like family!
Not only was the food delicious and loved by everyone at the rehearsal dinner and the reception, but the Bourbon room was perfect for a price, space and all around good time!
I cant say enough…I’m overjoyed that my wedding was exactly what i wanted and at the Right Place!!!

I can honestly say that our wedding went better than anything I could imagine, and it was all because of Core Event Center. We got lucky to find a place that was super convenient to having the rehearsal, ceremony, reception and afterparty all in the same place. It was a luxury to have a shuttle service near the Hampton and Holiday Inn since we had a lot of people traveling for our wedding day. Joey, the event manager, was very exceptional to work with. The bartender at our wedding was terrific. Our guests went out of their way to tell us how great she was. There were, however, a few details that were missed. I think if we met with the wedding planner/coordinator prior to our wedding it would have been better.
