Our experience with Chateau Ritz was nothing short of extraordinary. From the owner, Mike, to the venue coordinator, Jessica, to the servers, the entire team was an absolute dream to work with. They went above and beyond to ensure our wedding was a spectacular event, and we felt completely stress-free throughout the entire process. No matter how busy they were, they made us feel like a top priority, always available for any questions we had, no matter how small. The feedback from our guests was overwhelmingly positive. Many said it was the best wedding they had ever attended, and everything was top-notch, fitting perfectly with the black-tie event we had envisioned. Our guests raved about the butler passed hors d’oeuvres, the open bar, the food, and the deluxe sweet and fruit table. Thanks to Mike, Jessica, and the incredible team at Chateau Ritz, our wedding day was truly unforgettable. I can’t recommend them enough for making our day so memorable and spectacular!
