“The Rewind was the perfect location for our reception. The staff was so easy to work with and was very responsive to everything. The food was wonderful. The presidential suit was the perfect place for the girls to get ready and for the bridal party to hangout while we did couple photos. They had many items that we were able to use, meaning we had to bring less decorations. We also had our rehearsal dinner at The Rewind. They set up everything and it was beautiful. I only have good things to say about my experience with The Rewind!!”
