Loved working with the Graduate. They supplied everything we needed for the reception dinner (including the food!). Plus they have two bars on site that help keep the party going! Everyone I met with was so lovely and accommodating.
Choosing the Graduate as the location for my ceremony and reception was one of the best decisions I made surrounding my wedding. We had 150 guests. I have to say the staff made my wedding. From the first tour they treated my now husband and I like we were their only clients. The guests raved about the food, the catering manager set up an amazing tasting, and the suite was beautiful. The guests were all so impressed with the ambiance and food. You get the entire 2nd floor. So you have access to meeting rooms for organization, a really cool lobby for cocktail hour, a beautiful ballroom with chandeliers, and a patio with sparkle lights (they also set up a bartender out there). Wedding packages were available and it was extremely easy to understand what pricing would be. They kept us updated every step of the way and I am happy to say we had 0 surprise charges at the end. I wanted to go somewhere that took the stress out of coordinating food and decor, etc and I made the best decision possible. I cannot recommend this venue enough.
