We recently got married at Gala 417, and the entire experience was fantastic! The venue is absolutely breathtaking, and our guests couldn’t stop raving about how stunning everything was. Working with the Gala 417 team, especially Sarah and Lyndsey, made the planning process enjoyable and stress-free. They were incredibly responsive and attentive, always quick to answer questions and ensure that our wedding day vision came to life in a way that felt uniquely ours. Lyndsey, our day-of coordinator, was amazing! She handled everything flawlessly throughout the morning and early afternoon, and we truly appreciated how well-organized and professional she was. Even though there were a couple of small bumps after her departure, such as the DJ needing a reminder for speeches, and a few of our selected beer options running out earlier than expected, the staff still managed to keep everything running smoothly. To future brides, I would recommend clearly emphasizing any specific beverage preferences during your catering and blueprint meetings if you or your guests have favorites to avoid any disappointments. We were especially excited about the food after trying it at our catering meeting—it was delicious, and we even bragged to our guests about it! However, on the day of the wedding, the food served was bland and inconsistently prepared. We had requested steaks to be cooked medium, but after the fact, many of our guests shared that their filets ranged from rare to well-done, with some even mentioning gristle or fat in the cut—which shouldn’t happen with a filet. This was a bit disappointing, especially considering how much we were looking forward to the meal. Overall, Gala 417 went above and beyond to make our wedding day truly unforgettable. We would absolutely recommend this venue to future couples—between the gorgeous space and the dedication of the staff, our wedding was everything we dreamed of and more. We are so grateful to the entire Gala 417 team for making our day so special!

The Boathouse at Sunday Park was a fantastic choice for our small wedding. Their communication style was fast, clear, and email-only, which made coordinating all the details convenient but would have liked more phone conversations. The quality of their work and the overall value was exceptional - the space was clean, vibrant, and had an inviting atmosphere.

Because of the size of our wedding (185 guests), we didn't have a ton of options to look into. We loved the vibe of ACV so we went with it, but once we got going with putting it all together we were blown away. Throughout the entire process they were helpful, informative and receptive to what we wanted on the day. And the day of could not have been better, and we received plenty of compliments on the venue and everything around our day! Huge thanks to the event planner, coordinators (Wilde Poppy!), and staff it was as good as we could ask for! -Ada and Carter
