My husband and I recently had our reception (and most of our guests, including us) stay at the Kellogg Center for our wedding. We loved the location—it was convenient to our wedding ceremony, had covered parking, and ample space for our cocktai...l hour, dinner and dancing. It was especially nice to have our guest rooms literally steps away so that we didn't have to worry about guests drinking and driving.
The amount of amenities covered at the venue are great: set up and tear down, cake cutting, champagne toast, and a large variety of appetizer, entree and bar options. The space we rented (the Lincoln Room; comfortably seated 120 guests) was perfect, and the Kellogg Center was great at working with our other vendors.
The on-site venue coordinator was gracious enough to meet with me several times as we went over timing, questions and other intricate details. However, it was in the details that was a little hit or miss during the actual event. Our food was so-so, at best, and many of the things we had arranged (e.g., the bar set-up) just didn't pan out as planned.
All that said, the Kellogg Center was more than accommodating and understanding with our concerns. Where they could, it was fixed immediately during the event. Looking back, I want to be clear that our wedding reception turned out great, and I can say that I was happy with our experience. Many thanks to the Kellogg Center for their thoughtful customer service team and great space!
