    Melissa and David with Founder’s were so helpful to create our event at the Centennial Room flawless. When there was an issue, they corrected it quickly. The whole Founder’s team was wonderful to work with. Our event went incredibly well and our guests had nothing but positive things to say! Would definitely host an event at the Centennial Room again.
