“Our experience with The Madison was absolutely wonderful, so incredibly heart felt and BEAUTIFUL! Every detail was as important to them as those details were to us. AND, details we had not thought of, they did! The venue is breathtakingly gorgeous, inside and out. They answered emails and texts immediately.

“The Monterey Ballroom was an absolute dream for our wedding! From the moment we first inquired, their communication was fast, open, and incredibly helpful. The venue itself is gorgeous, with both indoor and outdoor spaces that provided the perfect setting for our special day. What really made them stand out though was their incredible attention to detail - they helped us decorate the space beautifully, and even gifted us mimosa supplies for the morning of the wedding! The owner, Mike, was amazing and made sure everything went so smoothly. We also loved that they had outdoor games for our guests to enjoy. The value was fantastic, and we couldn't have asked for a better wedding venue. We highly recommend the Monterey Ballroom to any couple looking to get married!”
