icating with us about how blown away they were by Omaha, the festivities, and our wedding venues - Omaha Design Center highlighted in particular. We spent years making this celebration happen due to the pandemic, and are incredibly grateful for the care and support Dallas, Dave, Nick, and the rest of the ODC team gave us every step of the way + especially throughout the weekend of our big day. The Omaha Event Group and Omaha Design Center have a special place in our hearts. We 100% recommend!
Gorgeous, elegant space with a world class event planner! Our wedding reception vision was brought to life by Katie and her team. Katie coordinated all of the details from the layout, catering, and a ceiling installation. She followed our timel...
ine to a T and we had a perfect party as a result! We loved utilizing multiple spaces in the venue for our cocktail hour, dinner and reception, and after party. The Garden Room and main ballrooms are configurable with chic seating, grass walls for photo ops, and spacious full-service bars. We comfortably hosted 250 guests who had the time of their lives!
Amazing service all around. Was perfect for our large guest count. The food, bar, staff, everything was perfect.
When we first found Omaha Design Center, we were in a rush to find a new place because our first venue unexpectedly closed. They were very helpful and willing to work with us to make our day beautiful. Dallas the event coordinator is great to h...
ave by your side. She answered every question we had and was willing to help in any way. The only issue we had on the wedding day was the bartending staff otherwise the day was perfect. Would recommend to future brides!
I attended this venue as a guest, and I have to say I was so impressed with this venue! It is my dream to have my wedding here after seeing such a success at my friends wedding. During this time of uncertainty this venue maintained such profes...
sionalism and cleanliness. One of the most beautiful venues in Omaha and I highly recommend!
Omaha Design Center was the best one stop shop any bride could ask for. They helped me arrange a floor plan, a timeline, a bar menu, and catering options! If you want your dream day made easy, choose this venue!

Corey,
Thank you so much for the kind review and for allowing us to be involved on such a fun day! We wish you the best on everything in your future!
I have emailed 3 times and contacted through knot app twice with no response. I really wanted this to be my venue- but if you want communication and to be given the level or service a bride deserves- RUN.
Response from the Vendor on 01/28/2020
Emma, we are so sorry for the lack of communication from your original inquiry. As we discussed a few weeks ago, the individual responsible for your terrible experience has been let go from our company. We understand that you've found another v...
enue, but the rest of our team is very professional and eager to demonstrate that we are not represented by one bad employee. Let's continue talking about how we can remedy the situation.
I just had my wedding at the Omaha Design Center this past Saturday and I have to say, it was amazing! Tim was great to work with and everything went so smoothly that I couldn't have asked for better. I recommend this place to anyone. Thank you...
so much!
The venue is absolutely beautiful and honestly will fit your “theme” for your wedding. I had my ceremony and reception there. I loved how the ceremony was in another room and then the reception was in another. They made planning so easy and ...
helped you with every question. They also helped with everything the day of. I loved being able to have Tim as my coordinator. Tim was amazing and fun. He made my day even more special and my guests absolutely loved him too!
We had our winter wedding and reception at the Design Center in Dec 2017 and loved everything! MJ was amazing to work with on setup and Sam, their caterer, served the most delicious food. We got so many compliments on the Venue and it was sooo ...
easy to have everything in one place and be the only people there. The Rooftop photos were so fun too! I would definitely recommend The Omaha Design Center. The only thing we had an issue with was the bartenders not following instructions as to when to open and not to serve shots, hopefully they are getting that straightened out internally though.

My husband and I fell in love with this venue for our wedding a couple of weeks ago! It is absolutely stunning, perfect size for large weddings, and very customizable! We booked with them before a big management change, and they made it so easy...
! They accommodated everything we were promised and held meetings with us to make sure we didn't fall through the cracks from old management. We received so many compliments on the size and beauty of this venue, it was absolutely perfect!! Thank you Katie and the rest of the ODC team for taken care of such a big day for us and our family's!

g us choose the perfect bar package and even allowed us to be the bartenders for a portion of the night (instead of a dollar dance). I would absolutely recommend ODC to any bride/groom looking to have a beautiful ceremony/reception venue all in one!

Hi Jason, we loved working with you and Shelbi to create a spectacular ceremony and reception! Our staff definitely had a lot of fun dancing along to the surprise band you brought in at the end the night! -MJ
We recently had our wedding ceremony and reception at ODC and it was fantastic! The staff was great to work with throughout the planning process especially Katie. She was quick to respond to emails and phone calls. On the day of the wedding,...
Katie was there and was extremely attentive. She was always making sure there was nothing I needed. The space was fantastic. We only had 120 guests but we were still able to fill the space. The decor was great and made for great photo ops. We were even able to go on the roof for sunset photos. The only thing that was a slight negative was the bride/groom suites were extremely warm. They did have fans in there for us to use, but it was hot. Overall great experience, and I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a modern event venue!

Hi Danielle, thank you for allowing us to be part of your special day! With your guest count and the floor plan created, we were able to maximize the space to help create a beautiful atmosphere-definitely one to remember! Also thank you for bri...

This place is amazing! We has our wedding there and everything was perfect. The venue is already so beautiful that you don’t need to do a ton of outside decorations. The staff is so wonderful and helpful. They go above and beyond before, during...
and after the wedding. I couldn’t be happier that we chose this location. All of our guest commented on how beautiful the venue was. I highly recommend.
My brother and his wife got married at the Omaha Design Center this last Sunday 9/4/2016. It was absolutely the best wedding I have ever been to! The Venue was so incredible, they set up all the chairs and stage for the actual wedding ceremony ...
with white curtains that surrounded the area with great lights for decoration! They set up all the tables and stage for the reception and worked with both families the night before and day of to make it perfect for the bride and groom. Not only was the venue gorgeous but the staff definitely made it a great experience. Many of them worked the 14 hours that we were there the day of to make sure that everything went off without a hitch. Robert and Azelia were two of the people who we dealt with most, they helped with all aspects of getting the venue ready for us and also made sure we were all comfortable. I can’t say enough about this venue and the staff involved but they definitely made a night for my family that we will never forget! Thanks Omaha Design Center!
My daughter and son-in-law were recently married at ODC and we had their reception at this venue, too. They were very accommodating and gave us more than originally planned. How often does that happen? Thanks to Azalia and Robert for ensuring w...
e had a great experience. I would recommend this venue for your next event.
We had our reception at the Omaha Design Center. We originally booked when it was the Tip Top Ballroom. The transition between companies was pretty smooth in the beginning. Unfortunately, their event manager was virtually impossible to get ahol...
d of and would sometimes take several weeks to respond to a simple question. It was very difficult having one phone number and one email to one person to be in contact with all that is ODC. We had a lot of questions up in the air as we reached close to the date. She was very sweet and wanted to be helpful, however it seems she is overloaded with customers and requests. It would have been nice to have another contact for easy questions to help the event manager prioritize or get simple issues resolved easily. We felt that several of our requests were not noted or heeded to as we reached the day we could set up and therefore had to go with the flow at that point. While the event manager was very kind and did answer our questions once we got ahold of her, we did not receive much help or offer to fix something when it was not as we had planned. It was very helpful once we gained the contact of Robert Mota. He was exceptional in making sure our event was what we had envisioned and had quick turn around when we had any issues or had things left at the venue after the wedding. We appreciated being able to consistently get ahold of him and his immediate need to make sure any issues were solved and fixed to the best of his ability in such a short time frame. While it was stressful not being able to easily get ahold of the venue, the space truly is beautiful and we had several compliments from our guests and vendors that the venue was gorgeous, spacious, and provided for a wonderful evening. We would recommend the ODC as a reception venue, however, I urge management to come up with a solution to be able to return calls and emails in a more reasonable timeline.
The venue was beautiful and great location. Their event manager did not get back to us in a timely manner with questions. Not sure if it was because we were part of the Tip Top transition or what. The event manager didn't offer to help with any...
thing the night of either. She greeted us and that was it. There was no follow up of any kind.
