We really enjoyed using the Holiday Inn for our reception! The space was great- the staff did really great going over and talking with us to get exactly what we wanted and our setup turned out beautifully. We did have some issues with communication at the end and numbers in pricing kept changing which was frustrating when we thought we were paying one price and then through email find out we were paying another price. As well as the food pricing for catering changed at least two if not three times from the time we put a deposit on the space to the final payment and only got updated numbers for catering a couple times and I had to ask for them it wasn’t just automatically sent to us as they changed, so going into one of our final meeting with expectation of a certain price with what we were planning and then they had changed again and we didn’t know until we got there and it was being discussed. It was frustrating because it is a spendy cost using their restaurant for catering and price just kept going up. Overall the experience was good, just frustrating at the end and that’s the most stressful time of planning is close tot he wedding so this was just an added stress that was unnecessary.
