Jerry and the team at Parkway Banquets were very helpful in planning our special day. Communication was mainly through email and phone which worked well to coordinate details. The venue itself was beautiful and spacious, especially for the price. On the day-of, Jerry and staff were attentive to make sure things flowed smoothly. There seems to be some miscommunication around salad selections but overall the food was great, and it was a beautiful, memorable wedding that we really enjoyed.

This place is gorgeous and the perfect place to hold your wedding or any type of event. The staff is super helpful and there is a reason why this facility is booked so far out. There is plenty of space and the elegance of this facility cannot be overstated. With the Hotel so close and Murphy Park right there, you have everything you need to accommodate a spectacular wedding!
