The Artisan was the perfect venue for our wedding. Payal and her team were incredibly organized, personal, and professional throughout the entire planning process. The modern, elegant, and beautiful space exceeded our expectations - it provided the ideal backdrop for our special day. Payal really went above and beyond, taking care of every detail from the layout, to the schedule, and even the napkin design. The food was absolutely delicious and the chef accommodated food for my celiac disease. The Artisan was worth every penny and we are so grateful for their incredible service.

We were thrilled with our wedding day at Grbic! Lejla and the whole team made sure that our special day went smoothly and exceeded our expectations. The event staff took special care to make sure my husband and I had what we needed (we even got to eat!) and the bartenders…whew. They were phenomenal. They even brought shots out to the dance floor. Everyone had a great time and they played a big role in that. The food was absolutely incredible. We were able to use the main event space for the ceremony and then moved to the restaurant space for the cocktail hour while the team flipped the main space for the reception. Everything was executed flawlessly. They even let us stay for two extra songs at the end of the night. Our guests had a fantastic time, and so did we. Thank you Grbic!!

My husband and I could not have asked for a better experience in planning our wedding reception. I don't even know where to begin. Nancy made the booking process absolutely seamless. Molly, our coordinator, was kind, attentive, and professional. We barely had lift a finger! Our decorations were gorgeous, and we used all of the LiUNA's items. Aside from our seating chart, guest book, and a neon sign, we didn't have to bring in or set up a single thing. Molly made us feel like the only couple she was working with. The monthly free tastings allowed us to try many different possible menu items (and, hello, who doesn't love multiple free dinners?!). The food was delicious. Our DJ, who was included in our package, did an excellent job. My husband and I really just wanted to throw a big party for our favorite people, and that was exactly what we got! However, you can really customize your reception with the LiUNA. Had we wanted to bring in our own centerpieces, decorations, etc., we totally could have. Finally, we felt like the price per head that we paid was extremely reasonable. I wish we could relive our reception over and over again. Thank you, LiUna staff!

The terrace was beautifully prepared, creating an atmosphere our guest couldn't stop raving about. The Cardinal Ballroom for our reception was spacious enough to comfortably accommodate our 200 guests, with plenty of room for dancing and celebrating. The bar service was impeccable, and the food was a highlight of the night - everyone commented on how delicious everything was. A huge shoutout to Sydney, the venue coordinator, who was truly the icing on the cake. From our very first meeting to the wedding day itself, she went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. If everyone planning their wedding had a Sydney, no one would ever have to worry about a thing! her expertise, kindness, and attention to detail made the entire process smooth and stress-free. Beyond Sydney, every staff member we encountered was warm, friendly, and eager to help. Their professionalism and genuine care made both us and our guests feel welcomed and valued throughout the event. If I could do it all over again, there isn't a single thing I would change.

They customize pretty much everything so that you have things exactly as you want them and take care of everything on your day so that you don’t have to worry about a thing. And they’re so flexible. I had some family who were throwing them curve balls at the last minute and they took everything in stride. I can’t tell you how much I appreciated that.

Brookdale Farms Weddings And Events was a great choice for our wedding venue. Their communication was a bit spotty at first, but they were overall pretty responsive and addressed my personal needs throughout the day. The venue itself was modern, classy and beautifully decorated - the perfect backdrop for our special day. The decor process was so easy, and we had a wonderful time celebrating at Brookdale Farms. We highly recommend this venue for its quality of work and great value.
