Filmore In The Oaks (FITO) was the perfect venue for my son's wedding rehearsal dinner ("welcome party"), which was held two days after Christmas. He wanted the event to have a st...rictly casual vibe--so a golf course clubhouse seemed ideal to me--but the FITO's location, amenities (including ample on-site parking), and the facility itself still provided the understated, upscale setting I was after.
I started working with FITO event coordinator Channing Maumus in May of 2025, and her expert guidance and advice were key to making this event a success. I'd never hosted an event quite like one before (catered dinner for 100 guests) so Ms. Maumus' input was invaluable. From menu suggestions, to room layout, to dinner music options, to the logistics of getting signage and table decorations in place, I couldn't have asked for a more knowledgeable and accommodating person to work with. I had a gazillion questions and she was always at the ready to answer them.
Throughout the event and even afterwards, what I kept hearing the most about was how delicious the food was. And it really was! The FITO catering staff did an outstanding job preparing it, and the staff attending the buffet were efficient, friendly, and professional from beginning to end.
It should be pretty clear by now that I can't say enough good things about my experience with Filmore In The Oaks. I highly recommend it.
