My wife and I had our wedding reception here in November 2023. We truly cannot be happier with our wedding reception. We rented out the entire restaurant and from day one, the Banq...
uet Director, April Draeger was on top of it.
From our initial inquiry, to tasting the food, to the very end, this process was made so much easier because of April. Every time we met, she came with an agenda with questions for us on what we envisioned, where things would go where, the timeline, etc. On the day of, we accidentally sent in an incorrect seating chart but April came to the rescue! She was incredibly reassuring as she took care of it! April's demeanor, professionalism, and kindness truly made made our wedding reception feel like a fairytale and beautiful. She and MEZ overall went well beyond what they needed to do. Whether making sure our wedding cake looked good or keeping us on track, April was absolutely amazing.
Other examples of MEZ doing an amazing job was their willingness to give feedback on their menu and how we constructed it, printing our some menus in Spanish for some of our family guests, and having a dedicated person attend to my wife and I throughout. Cocktail hour was great and the food and drinks... were soooo good.
My wife and I absolutely recommend MEZ for anyone who would want to host their wedding there. MEZ made planning our wedding a lot less stressful and were so grateful that MEZ has April as the director of Banquets! Their generosity, professionalism, and detailed oriented way of planning events/weddings were impeccable.
