My husband and I had our reception here in October and could not have asked for a better place! Everything was set up perfect and how we imagined. Joanna was great at making sure everything was going to plan and that all our needs were met. She...

was very accommodating to our needs throughout the whole process. The staff was excellent! All our guest raved about the food and how beautiful the place was. I didn't have to worry about anything that night except for having a good time! If your still looking, look not further this is the place that you need to have your wedding!

We had such a wonderful experience with Medinah Banquets... we had our reception there for our May 11th wedding and my parents, my husband, and I have nothing but terrific things to say about Medinah Banquets! Cyrille was the main coordinator f...

or our reception and he was so accommodating with every request and wish. We did not have to worry about a thing the day of and leading up to the event, he was very responsive. "Your wish is my command" should be their slogan because they truly made us feel like they could accomplish anything for us on this special occasion! Also, the large space was really perfect for our 350 guests.

We held our ceremony and reception at the shrine center, it was great just perfect, the location is beautiful, garden areas also beautiful,(great for pictures)The staff was very helpful, the only thing I would say to improve on, is keeping ever...

yone on the same page, when we picked our date we originally went with a Saturday. We then found out, its cheaper to have it on a friday, so we changed dates. When it came time to choose the meal though, it seemed the station buffet would suit our needs better, then found out we wouldn't receive the discount. Big bummer! The day of the wedding I kept losing my flowers, I had them on one of the halls carts right outside of my bridal suite, except every time I needed them, I had to track them down, which as a bride can cause alot of chaos and on your wedding... well you'd rather not worry about trying to find your flowers all day long. The food was delicious, the staff very helpful, and as I said before very beautiful. I would definetly, recommend this venue. Also, there is a hotel in the same parking lot,so convient.

My husband and I hosted our wedding here through the Old town wedding chapel. The price is unbeatable, they provide the officiant, the docorations, set up and vocalist for $500! The bride and groom have the space reserved for 2 hours. They ha...

ve a judge or a minister who are able to preform the ceremony so you can be married by a minister or judge, which i think is nice. Most churches want more than what the old town wedding chapel wants. The mister was friendly and hosted an outstanding wedding ceremony.
