I don’t even know where to start. George is the owner. He & his entire crew made our day the best day ever. They are part of their own company called “FabWeddings”. They have multi...ple venues and offer an “all inclusive” experience. Some of my favorite parts of the package is that it included food catering, décor, bar service, day of coordinator, wedding planner, multiple meetings prior to the day of so you know everything that’s going on & feel so comfortable with the planning, DJ, bridesmaid and groomsmen get ready rooms, an arcade downstairs for the girls/guys to play prior to the wedding while we get ready, etc. They also offer video/photo packages. Most of these things are optional, but it’s SO amazing that it’s all offered for easy planning. They literally have everything you’d possibly need. We chose to do an outdoor ceremony (if you choose outdoor, you can move it indoors if bad weather is in the forecast for no extra charge). Then we had the reception indoors. The venue also works with local vendors to coordinate & leave you out of the headache of planning arrival, set up, etc of the services. They arranged the cake, flowers, & food. I didn’t have to worry about A THING! We also chose to have them do our décor. You can do it yourself, but it was so much easier to have them do it! You can bring your own personal items too & they’ll set it up for you. Not to mention the take-down they offer as part of the package!
Food Catering: Brianno’s is the food that is catered to the venue. There are many food package options you can choose from. We chose the “basic/entry level” food package. I can truly say, with Brianno’s there no such thing as “entry level” taste. We did the buffet style with 2 pastas. 1 w/ white sauce (Cavatappi noodles, broccoli & chicken), & 1 w/ red sauce (Penne noodles, Italian sausage & meatballs). It also came with Caesar salad, bread, & their AMAZING dipping sauce.
Rehearsal Coordinators/Day of Coordinators: Employees of Glenhaven. We had our rehearsal at the venue the day before & they helped us set up the wedding party & show how the ceremony would go, how we’d walk out, they played the music, everything.. It made me so much less nervous for the actual ceremony because people actually knew what to expect! Then, the day of they set up everything in the venue for us. Our flowers were delivered, cake, etc. & they got it all put out & displayed as we wanted! They made sure that our party kept on the timeline to get out to the ceremony on time.
Included DJ: DJ Ryan Karstens -- He is also part of the Glenhaven crew. To be honest, I was a little nervous to have a DJ that was part of a “package”. I had never been to a wedding through FabWeddings so I had never personally seen what their DJ’s are like. HE WAS AMAZING! Ryan ran the music outside for the ceremony, & that went perfectly. They have a website where you enter all of the songs you want for each category (Processional, Recessional, First dance, etc.) You can also put the songs you don’t want, & the songs you do want. At the reception he also took requests & there wasn’t a minute that people weren’t flooding the dancefloor. Ryan checked in with me & my husband multiple times throughout the night to ask how he was doing, if we needed anything, etc. He was GREAT!!
