Corporate Party Success!
Our client had their celebratory promotion party here and it was fantastic from the start! Working with Jen Wead and her staff was a flawless operation! Jen is top-notch from open communication, detail oriented and open to ideas. She was very welcoming from day one, she and her staff made sure all things were tended to and went above and beyond for our client. We cannot wait to work with her again in the future! Thank you!
